Sustainable soil and water management practices play a crucial role in ensuring agricultural security by safeguarding natural resources while enhancing productivity and resilience against environmental challenges. As global populations rise and climate variability intensifies, the effective management of soil health and water resources becomes increasingly important. Practices such as conservation, crop rotation, integrated pest management, and precision irrigation promote sustainable farming while mitigating soil erosion, preserving water quality, and optimizing nutrient utilization. By adopting these practices, farmers can bolster food security, protect biodiversity, and contribute to the long-term sustainability of agricultural systems amidst evolving climate and environmental pressures. Sustainable Soil and Water Management Practices for Agricultural Security explores effective strategies for agricultural security through sustainable environmental practices. It covers factors contributing to improved plant cultivation and irrigation management while focused on sustainability and climate awareness. This book covers topics such as drainage systems, irrigation practices, and biotechnology, and is a useful resource for biologists, agriculture professionals, ecologists, scientists, government officials, researchers, and academicians.
