Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Fruit orchard species differed significantly.
- Observation Cordia myxa had total carbon stock of 29.28 ± 14.18 kg per tree.
- Observation Aegle marmelos had total carbon stock of 27.04 ± 9.60 kg per tree, on par with Cordia myxa.
- Association Tree height correlated positively with carbon stock, with coefficient 0.98.
- Observation Soil organic carbon was highest under Cordia myxa at 8.45 Mg ha-1 regardless of depth.
- Recommendation The authors recommend Cordia myxa and Aegle marmelos as carbon sinks for farmer adoption.
