Towards a carbon circular economy in dryland agricultural systems of the Mediterranean basin

The European LIFE AMDRYC4 project “Climate Change Adaptation of Dryland Agricultural systems in the Mediterranean area”, is working on an “Organic Matter Strategy for a Carbon Circular Economy in Agricultural Drylands of the Mediterranean Basin”. This strategy proposes to integrate comprehensive measures adjusted to dryland agricultural systems increasing soil carbon uptake and contributing, therefore, to
