| Abstract/Description: | Conservation Agriculture refers to a range of soil management practices that minimize effects on composition, structure and natural biodiversity and reduce erosion and degradation. Such practices include direct sowing / no-tillage, reduced tillage / minimum tillage, surfaceincorporation of crop residues and establishment of cover crops in both annual and perennial crops. As such the soil is protected from rainfall erosion and water runoff; the soil aggregates, organic matter and fertility level naturally increase and soil compaction is reduced. Furthermore, less contamination of surface water occurs, water retention and storage is enhanced, which allows recharging of aquifers. |
