What is soil conservation?
• Soil conservation is the preventing of soil loss from erosion or
reduced fertility caused by over usage, acidification,
salinization or other chemical soil contamination.
• Conservation Tillage. ...
• Contour Farming. ...
• Strip Cropping. ...
• Windbreaks. ...
• Crop Rotation. ...
• Cover Crops. ...
• Buffer Strips. .
, What is water conservation?
• Water conservation is the practice of using water efficiently
to reduce unnecessary water usage.
1. Drip Irrigation
2. Capturing and storing of water
3. Irrigation scheduling
4. Drought/salt tolerant crops
5. Dry Farming
6. Rotational grazing
7. Compost and mulching
8. Conservation tillage
, Water Resources
• Water resources include the problems and aspects
extending from watershed to the agricultural fields; these
are summarized as below:
Water resources and Hydrology aspects.
• The first aspect of water resource is to locate various
water resources and to study the hydrology of water.
• Hydrology is the science that involves the depletion
and replenishment of the water resources.
, What requires for planning of irrigation projects
• The quantity of water available at a reservoir site for
storage.
• The maximum discharge at river (a site- Hydrograph and
flood frequency studies are made).
• The reservoir capacity to assure adequate water for
irrigation.
• The quantity of ground water which can be economically
exploited.
