  • Abstract:
  • Carbon sequestration from plants refers to the process by which plants absorb and store carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, helping to mitigate the effects of climate change. Plants absorb CO2 from the air during photosynthesis, a biochemical process that occurs in their leaves. They use sunlight, water, and nutrients to convert CO2 into carbohydrates, releasing oxygen as a byproduct. The carbon captured during photosynthesis is stored in plant biomass, including stems, leaves, and roots. Carbon sequestration from plants is essential for mitigating climate change. The present study was undertaken to measurement of carbon sequestration from seasonal agricultural crops to find out how much amount of CO2 can be sequestrated from plant biomass. In this study ten different seasonal agricultural crops were selected from the DYP Agricultural Farm, Talsande, Kolhapur. It is found that, at the time of harvesting the total carbon sequestration from plant biomass in onion crop is highest (3095.99 kg/ha) and lowest in bitter gourd crop (91.79 kg/ha). The per hectare plant population is higher in the onion crop than other crops. it shows that, per hectare carbon dioxide is stored (kg/ha) in the plant body is depend on number of plant population of any crops.
