Composite soil with feldspathic sandstone boosts stability and carbon content.
The researchers studied how mixing different amounts of feldspathic sandstone and sand in soil affects its stability and organic carbon levels. They found that soil stability improved with certain compositions, and planting over time increased the size of soil aggregates and organic carbon content. One particular composition (C2) significantly increased soil organic carbon compared to others. Overall, mixing feldspathic sandstone and sand can improve soil structure and stability, especially with specific ratios.
