Abstract

  Indian farmers reasonably require the best suite of practices for natural resource conservation to improve water and soil quality and maintain crop yield. In fact, the country has been suffering from land conversion from forest to horizontally expanding infra- structure and residential tract leading to phenomenon of soil loss. In this paper an attempt is made to judge soil loss setbacks to Indian agriculture and discuss land use-based farming practices.
