'Growing season longer due to global warming'

if the growing season becomes longer, what does that mean for the co2 absorption by the vegetation? Will there not be a new balance automatically?

John: In my opinion the growing season is getting longer, but within the growing season changeable weather occurs more often. (drought, lots and lots of rain. ) It will get more exciting every year, will I get my crop above shore. And what is the yield.

but now that the potatoes and wheat are gone, the green manure crop that follows can capture co2 for almost a month longer, which is eventually plowed under..

There is no explanation about a weaker, more meandering jet stream. This ensures longer periods of the same weather

John, capturing CO2 is actually very disappointing. Especially in arable farming it is already a lot to keep the ox content stable. And about agriculture as a whole: it is of course nice to hear it said that agriculture is one of the only sectors that captures CO2. But that's just how you look at it. The food chain as a whole consists of a part that fixes - agriculture - and a part that releases CO2 again - the consumer. So net zero CO2 capture. In other words, the net result is quite negative - like any economic activity - due to the use of fossil energy. The lengthening of the growing season makes little difference. The emergence of a new equilibrium is far from being the case.

It's great that the climate is warming up a bit, hopefully even more then there will be new opportunities for agriculture.

If one sees a chance to increase the organic matter content in the soil . In turn, the soil can capture more CO2. It has to do with which building plan one has. In general, grass is good for the soil, but also grain followed by a good green manure is high when it comes to increasing the organic matter in the soil.
