Abstract:
The study in relation to “Assessment of carbon sequestration under different age of bamboo plantation” was conducted during the year 2019-20 at Agro-forestry farm, College of Agriculture, Nagpur. The carbon stock in the soil ranges between 13.52 to 22.97 Mg ha-1 (surface) and 12.44 to 22.34 Mg ha-1 (sub-surface), the soil carbon stock were highest in 1990 year of bamboo plantation and was found lowest in fallow land. The carbon sequestration potential increases in order to 2014, 2008, 1997, 1994, 1992 and 1990 year of bamboo plantation respectively. The carbon sequestration potential increases with the age of bamboo plantation, more the age of bamboo plantation higher value of carbon sequestration potential, whereas lower value of carbon sequestration potential was recorded in fallow land.
