Conservation Farming

Conservation farming refers to a set of agricultural practices and techniques that aim to protect and improve the environment, while also maintaining or increasing crop productivity. This approach typically involves reducing or eliminating tillage, using cover crops, rotating crops, and implementing practices to minimize soil erosion and nutrient loss. Conservation farming seeks to promote sustainable farming practices that prioritize soil health, biodiversity, and long-term ecological balance.
