Descripción
Carbon sequestration on agricultural lands might become an important instrument of the U.S. policy for reduction of atmospheric carbon, which is believed to be a major contributing factor to recent climatic change, Herein, we examine the near term income enhancing prospects of carbon sequestration for landowners. Based on a review of current U.S. policies, sequestration cost, and recent developments in the carbon market, we show that presently the prospects may be limited.
