Soil management practices such as crop rotation and organic farming play a crucial role in preserving soil fertility and structure, contributing to sustainable agriculture. Crop rotation involves alternating different crops in a specific sequence to improve soil health, break pest cycles, and replenish soil nutrients. Organic farming practices focus on enhancing soil fertility and biological activity through the use of organic matter, compost, and natural inputs instead of synthetic chemicals. These practices help maintain soil structure, increase water retention, promote beneficial soil organisms, and reduce soil erosion and nutrient leaching.
