Mulches, organic or inorganic in nature, favorably moderate soil's hydrothermal regime, assume significance in the context of climate change. The in-situ mulching under conservation agriculture avoids crop residue burning. Besides improving crop growth, moderation of soil moisture regime, buffering soil temperature fluctuations, facilitating soil aeration, seedling emergence, improving root growth, efficient water and nutrient use by crop plants it also improves the environment by facilitating carbon sequestration and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the soil. Appropriate policy decisions to overcome limitations in adoption of conservation agriculture and mulching are required by providing technical and financial support to the farmers Not Available |
