Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue "Carbon and Nitrogen Cycling in Agricultural Systems for Field Carbon Sequestration and Emission Reduction" addresses the critical roles of carbon and nitrogen cycling in enhancing soil carbon sequestration and reducing emissions. Understanding these biogeochemical cycles is essential for developing sustainable agricultural practises that mitigate climate change and reduce environmental pollution. This issue aims to explore innovative research on carbon and nitrogen dynamics, such as effects, mechanisms, and interactions with advanced or integrated practises. We seek cutting-edge studies on soil–plant–microbe interactions, bottom-up or top-down modelling approaches, and field or laboratory experiments that elucidate processes driving carbon storage and nitrogen use efficiency. The overall aim of this Special Issue is to offer insights into optimizing agricultural systems to enhance carbon sequestration and minimize emissions of both greenhouse gasses and other pollutants, ultimately contributing to climate resilience and sustainable food production.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Agronomy is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
