Soil organic carbon (SOC), a key component of soil organic matter that supports fertility and structure, is commonly estimated through chromic acid oxidation followed by redox titration using ferrous salts. This classical method, first introduced by Schollenberger in 1927, remains widely used for assessing soil carbon content and sustainability.
