The purpose of the study requested from ISARA and its students is to<strong> produce an analysis grid to document a series of farms that have implemented agroecological practices<\/strong> participating in the achievement of<strong> carbon sequestration targets<\/strong> in soils, which is proposed by the international &quot;4 per 1000&quot; Initiative. The study allowed <strong>to assess the impact of agricultural practices in 4 concrete cases<\/strong>\u00a0: arboriculture in agroforestry in Brazil, market gardening and agroforestry in Tanzania, market gardening in organic agriculture in India and mixed crop-livestock in organic agriculture in France.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>What does 4 per 1000 mean?<br \/>\nAs a reminder, the international initiative &quot;4 per 1000&quot; was launched by France <strong>during COP21 in 2015<\/strong>Its aim is to create synergy between the various public and private actors (States, communities, businesses, professional organizations, NGOs, research establishments, etc.) in order to move towards a <strong>real agroecological transition<\/strong> agriculture and to implement concrete actions to <strong>natural carbon storage<\/strong> in the soils.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em style=\"font-size: 1.2rem;\">Each year, approximately 30% of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is recovered by plants <strong>thanks to photosynthesis<\/strong>When they die and decompose, living organisms in the soil, such as bacteria, fungi or earthworms, transform them into organic matter. This organic matter \u2013 rich in carbon \u2013 is <strong>essential to human nutrition<\/strong>\u00a0because it retains water, nitrogen and phosphorus, essential for plant growth.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>But it also represents enormous carbon storage potential: the world&#039;s soils contain\u00a0<strong>2 to 3 times more carbon than the atmosphere.<\/strong> If the level of carbon stored by soils in the top 30 to 40 centimeters of soil increased by 0.4% (or 4\u2030) per year, the annual increase in carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere would be considerably reduced.
