»Conventional arable management leads to changes in soil water/nutrient retention and yields through compaction, reduced carbon sequestration, and loss of microbial diversity and abundance. Degraded soils are less resilient to perturbation including droughts, which are projected to increase in frequency and severity. Restoring soils through implementing grass-clover ley (long-term uncropped fallow) has been shown to increase organic carbon and crop yields, though little work has looked at the effects on microbial diversity or stress response. Thereby the aim of this research was was to investigate the role of arable extensification and ecological intensification in promoting soil ecosystem services related to water retention and crop performance under future climate conditions.«
