Role of women in soil testing technique and effect of good soil quality

Author(s): Anamika Singh, Neelma Kunwar and Shalini Gupta
Abstract:
Soil conservation is important because soil is crucial for many aspects of human life as it provides food, filters air and water and helps to decompose biological waste into nutrients for new plant life. Soil conversation involves working to reduce contamination and depletion. Certain human activities can result in the erosion of soil, such as land being cleared for farming or timber. These practices can also affect the quality of the soil. One way to help increase quality is to rotate crops frequently or to add materials back into the soil. Soil conservation is the essence of soil management. To conserve means to protect from loss and harm. Hence soil conservation means to protect the soil from both loss and harm. Organic farming practices propagate soil conservation by reducing both soil loss and soil harm.
