Soil Preservation

Soil prevention is all about the prevention of soil loss from erosion due to chemicals present in soil and contamination. A sequel to deforestation is usually the large scale of erosion, loss of soil nutrients and sometimes total desertification. 

Soil erosion removes the topsoil that's necessary for organic matter, nutrients, micro-organisms that are required for plants to grow and shine. Soil Preservation is one such step that protects the soil from being washed away. The soil then finishes up in aquatic resources bringing in pesticides and fertilizers used on agricultural land. Healthy soil is vital for plants to grow and flourish. Taking the required steps to conserve the soil as a part of an environmentally friendly lifestyle. 

Soil conservation is a crucial part of sustainable agriculture and food production since it entails keeping soil from becoming a pollutant within the surface waters, and its ability to sieve and filter pollutants where we can improve the production.
