Conservation agriculture (CA) technologies involve
paradigm shift from traditional agriculture and include
minimum soil disturbance, permanent soil cover
through crop residues and crop diversification for
achieving sustained productivity and making rational
use of resources. The climate-resilient crop management
technologies of CA reverse the degradation
process inherent to the conventional agricultural practices
like intensive agriculture, declining factor
productivity and provide opportunities to reduce production
cost, save inputs, improve soil properties,
make efficient resource use and benefit the environment.
For nearly two decades, several researches and
policies have been disseminated that made significant
multiple ecosystem services in the rice–wheat system
of the Indo-Gangetic Plains. Likewise, there is a huge
potential of CA in jute-based cropping system in eastern
India, and there is an urgent need to frame policies
and strategies to promote CA in the jute-growing
regions of the country to bring sustenance in its production
and quality. This article focuses on the emerging
concerns due to the practice of conventional
methods, and analyses the scope, constraints and research
needs for CA and resource management in
jute-based cropping systems of India.
