This document discusses the effects of various soil management practices on soil environment, moisture, organisms, and properties. It describes practices like organic matter addition, clean cultivation, mulching, intercropping, cover cropping, and irrigation management. These practices can help enhance soil quality by increasing moisture content and supporting beneficial soil organisms, while also improving physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil. Proper soil management is an important part of sustainable land management.

2. SOIL MANAGEMENT
 Soil management is an integral part of land management .
 It may focus on differences in soil types and soil characteristics to define
specific interventions that are aimed to enhance the soil quality for the land
use selected.

4. DIFFERENT TYPES OF SOIL MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
 Organic matter addition
 Clean cultivation
 Sod culture
 Mulching
 Intercropping
 Cover cropping
 Irrigation management

5. ORGANIC MATTER ADDITION
This includes practices such as adding compost , manure or cover
crops to enhance soil organic matter content

6. MULCHING

7. TYPES OF MULCH

8. CROP ROTATION

9. BENEFITS OF CROP ROTATION

10. CONSERVATION TILLAGE
Conservation tillage is any tillage practice that builds up crop residues on the soil surface to minimize the impact of water and wind
erosion.

11. BENEFITS OF CONSERVATION TILLAGE

13. IRRIGATION MANAGEMENT
Efficient water use through proper scheduling , avoiding over irrigation or water logging

14. TYPES OF IRRIGATION
Sprinkler system

15. EFFECT ON MOISTURE CONTENT
The amount of water present
in the soil , which is influenced
by management practices like
irrigation , mulching and
organic matter addition.

16. EFFECT ON SOIL ORGANISMS
 The diverse range of microorganisms ,
macro organisms and other soil fauna ,
which play vital roles in nutrient cycling
and soil health .

19. EFFECT ON SOIL PROPERTIES
Physical , chemical and
biological characterstics of the
soil including texture , structure
, ph , nutrient content and
organic matter content .
