Synopsis: Structured database compiling information extracted from selected peer-reviewed articles on soil amendments in arid and semi-arid environments. It organizes data across multiple sheets, including Studies (bibliographic details of selected publications), Sites (geographic and environmental context), Interventions (management practices applied), Impacts (soil, vegetation, productivity, and ecosystem outcomes), and Adoption (drivers and barriers). The dataset supports systematic comparison of evidence from peer-reviewed literature on the effectiveness of dryland restoration and sustainable agriculture practices.
