Émilie Maillard
My main research activities aim to determine the effects of various cropping systems and agricultural practices on soil carbon accumulation and to better understand the mechanisms to stabilize soil organic matter. The cropping systems and practices studied include grassland systems, annual cropping systems with cover crops, application of livestock manure, tillage etc. I also have an interest in determining the carbon footprint in agroforestry systems (intra-plot systems, riparian strips) and in better understanding the impact of different cropping systems in organic farming production on soil carbon accumulation. My research projects can be done on a farm and landscape scale.
