Soil health is crucial for plant growth, but it can degrade due to farming practices. This can lead to decreased crop productivity. To improve soil health, using organic nutrient sources, conservation agriculture, diverse soil microbes, and recycling resources are effective methods. Techniques like green and brown manuring and agroforestry can also help. Adding crop residue and industrial waste as soil amendments can maintain healthy soil and provide nutrients for crops. It's important to focus on maintaining the physical, chemical, and biological properties of soil to keep it healthy and productive.
