Abstract
Agriculture is one of the significant contributors to greenhouse gas to the atmosphere, thereby play a role to intensify the greenhouse gas effect. Carbon dioxide, even being the principal component of gas emitted from the soil, there is no, or little research has been conducted on carbon dioxide emission from the soil surface under cultivated land. This study was intended to explore the carbon dioxide emission from soil-grown with various crops and management practices. The measurement was done with the Japanese closed chamber technique. The result showed that the level of emission not only differed due to management practices but also due to the type of vegetation covered. Therefore, intensive research on emission from different agricultural systems is imperative to develop climate-smart agricultural soil management technologies in Nepal.
