Carbon Budget of an Agroforestry System after Being Converted from a Poplar Short Rotation Coppice

Poplar (<i>Populus</i> L. spp.) Short Rotation Coppice systems (SRCs) for bioenergy production are being converted back to arable land. Transitioning to Alley Cropping Systems (ACSs) could be a suitable strategy for integrating former tree rows and arable crops. A field trial (Pisa, Cent...
