The three measures that can be taken for soil conservation are
- Planting cover crops: Cover crops can help to protect soil from erosion by providing a barrier against wind and water, and also adding organic matter to the soil.
- Reducing tillage practices: Reducing tillage practices can help to improve soil structure and reduce erosion by leaving plant residues on the soil surface, which helps to protect the soil from erosion.
- Terracing hillsides: Terracing hillsides can help to slow down the movement of water and soil down steep slopes, reducing erosion. It also allows for more efficient use of water and nutrients in agricultural practices.
