[QUOTE="JSmith, post: 7289344, member: 144303"] As carbon capture and foot print are the latest craze was going to incorporate this into a business plan/tender that I might be doing on a block of ground and this is something that would be on the tick list for the landlord! So if I started with four hundred acres of maize stubble that I was going to grass down and plant fodder crops, put hedges back, environmental features and so on... how do I calculate the capturing element of grass and said fodder crops compared to a featureless monoculture maize ground?? When grassland captures carbon does it store it within the root, plant, leaf or??? An if rotationally grazed does this increase the amount of carbon that can be captured, as in the more you graze it the more the regrowth captures?? Do kale an turnips an such like have the same capacity for carbon capturing?? Any suggestions or a link to plain talking explanation gratefully received!! Tia [/QUOTE]
