Why is it important to practice soil conservation?
Soil conservation is key to environmental sustainability: It helps protect natural resources and watersheds, restores habitats for plants and wildlife, improves water quality, and makes soil healthier.
Why there is a need of Soil Conservation write any three reasons?
We need to conserve soil because of the following reasons: Soil is vital part of our eco system and is the foundation of plant, animal and human life. Plants grow on soil and play an important role in regulating the climate of a region. In absence of plants, the region becomes inhabitable.
How does the country conserve and protect the soil?
Crop rotation is a process that works to conserve soil. It is accomplished by planting and growing a series of different crops in the same soil. This process prevents overgrowth of pathogens and a lack of fertility in the soil, overall.
Why Soil Conservation is important to us what will happen if no preventive measures would be taken?
Answer : Soil conservation is the process of preventing soil loss from erosion. If no measures are taken to conserve soil then it will lead to soil erosion this will cause soil loose it’s fertility then eventually productivity will also decrease and hence after a period of time land will be degraded.
Why is soil conservation necessary and how can it be done class 8?
Soil conservation is the prevention of soil loss from erosion or the prevention of decreased fertility caused by acidification, over usage, salinization or other chemical soil contamination. Soil has vital potential in agriculture, mining and many more, hence it is necessary to conserve soil.
How does Soil Conservation affect us?
Improved Environment: Reduced erosion. Increased water infiltration and storage. Improved air and water quality. Provides food and shelter for wildlife.
What will happen if soil is exposed to any human activity?
Overgrazing, over cropping and or deforestation can lead to desertification – the spread of desert like lands due to these human activities accelerating natural erosion of soil. This may occur in areas of deforestation, mountain slopes or as a general practice to plant a seedling for each tree cut down.

What is soil conservation explain the method of 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. Slash-and-burn and other unstainable methods. Methods of Soil Conservation:- 1-Terrace farming. 2- Buffer strip.
Why soil and water conservation is important?
Why Soil and Water Conservation? Soil and water are two important natural resources and the basic needs for agricultural production. In other words increase in agricultural production to feed the increasing population is only possible if there sufficient fertile land and water are available for farming.
