Soil conservation is significant in sustainable agriculture because it enhances soil fertility, prevents erosion, and promotes water quality. Healthy soils support plant growth, which is essential for food production while minimizing the need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Practices such as cover cropping, crop rotation, and reduced tillage help maintain soil structure, improve microbial activity, and increase water retention capabilities. By adopting these practices, farmers can maintain productivity while ensuring the sustainability of their agricultural systems and the wider environment.
