    As a central factor of the Carbon Farming Alliance for Research and Management (C-FARM) project, monitoring changes in soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks is crucial for identifying sustainable land use practices related to climate change mitigation, food security, and land degradation. Accurately quantifying SOC and modeling its spatial variability is vital for making informed decisions.
