Soil ResourcesSoil Resources
complex mixture of inorganic minerals (clay, silt, sand), decaying matter, & living organisms.
•potentially renewable resource;
• typically 200–1000 years to form 2.5 centimeters (1 inch) of topsoil.

ErosionErosion
movement of soil, especially litter & topsoil, from one place to another
•makes soil less fertile & less able to hold water;
• topsoil eroding faster than it forms in about one–third of the world's cropland.

Problems of IrrigationProblems of Irrigation

• Salinization: salts build up to levels that decrease yields or prevent cultivation
• Waterlogging excess irrigation water raises water table & lowers crop productivity

Soil ConservationSoil Conservationreduces soil erosion & restores fertility
some methods:
• conservation–tillage
• terracing, contour farming, strip cropping, alley cropping
• organic fertilizers
• crop rotation

• minimizes soil disturbance
• uses special tillers or no–till methods that inject seeds, fertilizers, & herbicides in unplowed soil
• poses new problems of heavy herbicide use

Some Means to Prevent ErosionSome Means to Prevent Erosion
• terracing protects steep slopes
• contour farming follows natural land contours
• strip cropping maintains strips of different vegetation between crops
• alley cropping grows crops between rows of trees

• organic fertilizers: manure, "green manure" = plant matter, & compost
• decreased use of inorganic fertilizers
• crop rotation: alternating between different crops & fallow times; planting crops that restore nutrients
