The higher SOCcontent was found in ll1edium depth soil under iInproved management, which ranged between 1.07% and1.2% with a lnean of 1.130/0, the lower SOC content is recorded in medium depth traditional mauagelnent,which ranged between 0.51 % and 0.94% with a mean value of 0.66%. The SOC content increased between2002 and 2006 with higher value for iInproved management (+0.42%) cOlnpared to traditional managelnent(+0.28%). The MBC content is not influenced by management system and soil depth
