Summary: Soil conservation management (SCM) system with no-till (NT), cover crop sandcash crops in rotation and/or succession, limestone and fertilizers can recover and/or maintain soil quality in terms of its carbon (C) stock in comparison to the slash-burn system with or without conventional tillage (CT). The objective of this study was to determine the effect of SCM system on temporal variation of soil carbon stocks in its natural state (native forest-NF) and under different tillage/cropping systems.
