- Intervention effect CTMR reduced sugarcane yield on clayey soil.
- Intervention effect CTTR reduced sugarcane yield on clayey soil.
- Intervention effect RTTR reduced sugarcane yield on clayey soil.
- Intervention effect RTNR increased soil carbon stock by as much as 1.64 Mg per hectare per year on clayey soil.
- Intervention effect CTMR depleted soil carbon stocks on both soils.
- Intervention effect CTTR depleted soil carbon stocks on both soils.
- Association Each Mg of returned straw increased soil carbon by 95 kg per hectare on clayey soil.
- Association Each Mg of returned straw increased soil carbon by 55 kg per hectare on sandy loam under conventional tillage.
- Intervention effect Straw removal decreased microbial biomass carbon and beta glucosidase activity.
- Recommendation The authors recommend reduced tillage to attenuate straw removal effects on soil carbon while maintaining sugarcane yield.
