Submissions for articles are encouraged by researchers, practitioners, and policymakers addressing the translation of soil and crop science into actionable climate solutions, thereby supporting the global movement toward sustainable, carbon-responsible agriculture.

Climate change is creating severe challenges for agriculture through unpredictable weather, soil degradation, and increased greenhouse gas emissions, threatening global food security. Developing climate-resilient cropping systems is essential to balance productivity and environmental sustainability. While progress has been made in agronomy and soil management, significant gaps remain in integrating soil health with carbon and nitrogen dynamics, particularly within climate action and policy frameworks.

This Research Topic aims to address the urgent demand for innovative, science-driven solutions that enhance the resilience of cropping systems to climate change while actively advancing climate action through the mitigation of GHG emissions. By focusing on the synergistic integration of soil health indicators with carbon and nitrogen cycling, this initiative seeks to clarify how specific management interventions including conservation tillage, crop diversification, microbial inoculants, and precision nutrient management impact soil structure, microbial activity, and long term GHG fluxes in the context of climate action.
