Definition
The C/N ratio represents the proportion of carbon to nitrogen in organic matter. It influences decomposition rates and nutrient availability. A lower C/N ratio promotes rapid organic matter breakdown and nitrogen release, while a high ratio may lead to nitrogen immobilization, affecting plant growth. Source: Brady & Weil (2017).
