[QUOTE="Chips, post: 4795228, member: 432"] No that one wasn't me , this is the one I tend to post , produced by the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric research . [ATTACH=full]632710[/ATTACH] Also like this one based on figures from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change , showing grassland soils in temperate climates contains as much stored Carbon as Forest where as cropland only has one third , given that there is more Carbon in our soil than all of the plants,animals and Atmosphere combined , to plough it up to produce crops instead would cause climate change like never seen before ! [ATTACH=full]632712[/ATTACH] I sat in an NFU Dairy Enviromental Issues Group meeting this week at Stoneleigh , which had some very interesting presentations from Defra, ADAS and most interestingly of all John Gilliland of Devenish . They had figures to show unmanaged land stores less Carbon than managed , the higher the clay content the higher the carbon storage too along with PH as well , seemingly lime is really important here .
