Abstract/Summary

LANDWISE examines the NFM potential of land use and management in lowland catchments. We focussed on five soil types on two geologies; across agricultural land, grassland and woodland. We compared conventional and innovative farming systems and gathered empirical evidence of variation within and between fields. We show that near-surface soil properties and management is important for deeper soil water storage. We show that land use, management and organic matter content are significant in affecting soil properties and increasing NFM potential.
