Sentence examples for lower cropland from inspiring English sources

This lower cropland is also where their fisheries are located.

The annual global cost of land degradation due to land use and cover change (LUCC) and lower cropland and rangeland productivity is estimated to be about 300 billion USD.

Based on this agro-ecological system, they plant different crops at higher, intermediate, and lower croplands, which need to be recognized in basin governance.

This result corroborate the findings of Yimer et al. (2008) who reported that the concentration of soil exchangeable Na+ was lower in cropland than in the grazing and native forest.

The mean values of all SQIs and the soil loss rate were higher and lower in rangeland than cropland, respectively, but they were not significantly different because of intensive grazing.

Even though they feed us, most croplands have lower net carbon uptake than the native areas they replace, so croplands must be regarded as having suffered some impact.

Native forest topsoils (0 5 cm) had a bulk density of 1.0 ± 0.2 g cm−3 which was similar to values found for topsoils of forest plantations (1.1 ± 0.2 g cm−3), but significantly lower than topsoils from croplands (1.4 ± 0.2 g cm−3), tea plantation (1.3 ± 0.3 g cm−3) and pastures (1.4 ± 0.2 g cm−3).

Croplands had lower soil C/N ratios than coniferous plantations; similar to the trend of N, the difference was distinct in the upper 0 10 cm.

The lower C/N ratio in croplands could be a consequence of less C input to the soil and a higher mineralization rate of organic carbon caused by more oxygen being introduced and a higher soil temperature during cultivation (Yimer et al. 2007).
