In a study published in Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems 2024, researchers found that many common regenerative practices, like grazing sheep between vines, planting cover crops and using non-chemical pest management techniques stored much more carbon in the deep-rooted vines found in vineyards as compared to field with annual crops.
“Why exactly vineyard soils might hold onto more carbon compared to annual cropland is also a complex, open question. Villat said the soils might have started with less carbon to begin with. But the deep roots of the vines are also likely interacting with the cover crops and increased microbial activity as a result of animal waste, possibly holding it there longer.”
