Inhaltsangabe:

Soil fertility and nutrient management influence agricultural productivity, and hence food security and livelihoods problems are occurring, simultaneously. The inherent fertility of many soils is low because of their clay and organic matter content. Sometimes the nutrients are also exhausted due to continues cropping systems without restitution of nutrients in soil. At present Indian soil are facing not only macro nutrients deficiency but also micro nutrients deficiency are occurring frequently in different pockets. The low nutrient status of soils, and the loss of organic matter (through continuous cropping, burning and overgrazing) and nutrients (erosion and leaching), are key issues. Farming systems, especially combinations of crops and livestock, also influence management options. Replacing multiple crops with monocropping may raise demand for external inputs and increase pressure on the soil.Governments have promoted agroforestry, green manures and legumes, but these succeed only in some situations. So it’s essential to develop some basic and sustainable practice to maintain fertility status of soil for a long time without disturbing the soil nutrient inherent capacity
