N2 - The conversion from grassland to cropland has disrupted ecosystem functions leading to reduced soil organic matter, accelerated nutrient cycling, and compacted soils ([11]). Changes in soil properties, microbial biomass, and fluxes of C and N in soil following post-agricultural grassland restoration. Currently, former croplands are being converted back to grasslands and prairies to improve soil properties and re-establish the ecosystem services provided by soils including biodiversity, erosion control, and greenhouse gas mitigation.
