ABSTRACT

The major aim of the strategies is to attempt a gradual reversal of effects caused by climate change and sustain development under the inescapable effect of climate change. In the climate change scenario with nine billion mouths to feed by 2050, conservation agriculture is a key to future food security. By changing the proportion of soil organic and mineral constituents and altering soil structure, soil degradation will usually decrease a soil’s water-holding capacity, with a consequent increase in runoff and the magnitude of nutrient and water stress. Site- specific nutrient management approach follows the principles of participatory soil sampling and development of soil health cards, which is very helpful for recommendation of nutrients. Soil carbon sequestration can be accomplished by management systems that add high amounts of biomass to the soil, cause minimal soil disturbance, conserve soil and water, improve soil structure, and enhance soil fauna activity.
