Research summary
AI-generated

Manbir K. Rakkar studies soil science within agricultural systems, focusing on how farming and grazing practices affect soil health, nutrients, and carbon storage. Much of the work examines corn residue grazing and baling, soil pH and lime management, and perennial grain crops, evaluating their effects on soil properties, crop yields, and greenhouse gas emissions. This research is largely field-based and applied, often conducted at US land grant universities in the Great Plains region.
