Green manuring is the practice of growing leguminous crops and plowing them into the soil while still green. This adds organic matter and nitrogen to the soil. Legumes are preferred for green manuring because they can fix atmospheric nitrogen into the soil. Common crops used for green manuring include jantar, guara, sesbania, berseem, lucern, and sun hemp. The benefits of green manuring include increasing soil organic matter and fertility while reducing the need for inorganic fertilizers.
This document discusses green manuring, which involves growing a crop specifically to improve soil fertility by plowing the crop back into the soil. It notes that Pakistani soils are deficient in nitrogen and phosphorus. Green manuring helps build soil organic matter, improves soil structure, and fixes atmospheric nitrogen when legumes are used. Effective green manure crops are quick growing, leafy, and have a deep root system. Common green manure crops mentioned include berseem, janter, guara, sunnhemp, and mungbean. The document outlines benefits of green manuring such as increased crop yields, improved soil aeration and water holding capacity. Potential downsides include reduced moisture for subsequent crops and increased pest or disease
Green manuring is the practice of growing green plants or adding plant materials and incorporating them into the soil to improve soil structure and fertility. There are two main types - green leaf manuring, which involves collecting and adding leaves and twigs from elsewhere, and green manuring in situ, which involves growing plants like legumes and incorporating them into the soil before or at flowering. Green manuring benefits the soil by increasing nitrogen levels, improving soil structure and water retention, reducing erosion, and reclaiming saline or alkaline soils. Common green manure crops include sunn hemp, dhaincha, sesbania, and clusterbeans.
This document discusses different types of fertilizers including organic manures, chemical fertilizers, and biofertilizers. Organic manures include farm yard manure, compost, green manure, and vermicompost. Chemical fertilizers can be simple or complex. Biofertilizers contain nitrogen-fixing organisms that help crop growth. Common biofertilizers include Rhizobium, Azotobacter, Azospirillum, Azolla, and mycorrhizae fungi.
1) Crop management involves growing plants and animals for food, clothing, and other products, with crops referring to plants of the same kind grown on a large scale.
2) Agricultural practices are a series of activities performed by farmers in a particular sequence over time for crop growth, including ploughing, leveling, applying fertilizers, seed selection and sowing, irrigation, weeding, harvesting, and storage.
3) Ploughing involves loosening and turning the soil, which aerates it and helps mix fertilizers while allowing roots to breathe and bringing nutrients to the top.
Organic farming relies on green manuring to improve soil health and fertility. Green manuring involves growing leguminous crops like sunn hemp and dhaincha and incorporating them into the soil while still fresh. This adds nitrogen and organic matter to the soil from the plant residues. Legumes are especially effective as green manure crops as they fix nitrogen from the air through rhizobium bacteria in their root nodules. Proper timing of green manure crop burial and intervals before next crop planting are needed to maximize soil benefits from decomposition of plant tissues.
This document provides an overview of Zero Budget Natural Farming (ZBNF) presented by Debasis Das. Some key points:
- ZBNF is an alternative to conventional agriculture that does not use chemical fertilizers or pesticides and aims to be expense-free. It relies on natural techniques like beejamrut, jeevamrut, mulching and natural pest control.
- The four pillars of ZBNF are beejamrut, jeevamrut, effective microorganisms and mulching. Beejamrut and jeevamrut provide nutrients to seeds and soil and encourage beneficial microbes.
- Studies show ZBNF increases soil nutrients
Cover crops and green manures provide several key benefits to agricultural systems. They can be planted in winter or summer as cover crops or living mulches. Winter cover crops, like hairy vetch and rye, protect soil and fix nitrogen over winter in colder climates. Summer cover crops, such as cowpeas and soybeans, provide similar benefits during the summer. Cover crops improve soil organic matter, nitrogen levels, microbial activity, nutrient levels, and structure. They also enhance weed suppression, water retention, and help reduce erosion. Farmers must manage cover crops effectively to realize their benefits while avoiding limitations. Cover crops can be incorporated into crop rotations and pest management systems.

4. Employing techniques like composting, green manuring, cover cropping, crop rotation, and use of biofertilizers to enrich the soil.
Role of fertilizer green manuring in conservation agronomyShahzad Sial
Fertilizers and green manuring are important practices in conservation agronomy. Fertilizers enhance plant growth by providing essential nutrients and can be organic or inorganic. Green manuring involves planting legumes or other crops to enrich soil fertility through nitrogen fixation and addition of organic matter. Careful consideration of soil type, crop needs, climate, and other local factors is important when determining appropriate fertilization and green manuring practices.
This document discusses nutrient management for organic vegetable crops. It notes that organic fertilizers release nutrients more slowly than conventional sources, depending on soil biology. It also explains that organic management aims to build healthy soil by feeding soil life with organic matter, while supplemental organic fertilizers may be needed to meet crop nutrient demands and economic needs. The document provides an overview of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and other nutrient dynamics in soil and how organic farmers can manage nutrients effectively through practices like cover cropping and compost application.
Natural farming is a sustainable farming method that uses only natural inputs and respects the rights of crops and livestock. It heals soil degraded by chemicals while improving soil and water quality. Natural farming products are very healthy with high nutritional content and quality yields. The methods include using weeds for mulch rather than herbicides, earthworms for tilling rather than machines, and natural fertilizers like fish amino acid and eggshell calcium instead of chemical fertilizers. Farmers produce their own inputs from natural materials like indigenous microorganisms, fermented plant juice, and oriental herbs. Livestock are fed natural foods and their housing avoids pollution through decomposition by microorganisms.
i. Soil preparation involves tilling the soil to loosen and aerate it for plant roots to penetrate deeply. Traditional tools like ploughs and hoes are used for tilling.
ii. Sowing seeds properly at the right depth and spacing is important for optimal plant growth. Traditional and modern seed drills are used to sow seeds uniformly.
iii. Manure and fertilizers are added to replenish soil nutrients removed by continuous cropping, improving soil health and fertility for better crop yields.

Crop production requires regular management practices to provide food for large populations. Key practices include preparing soils, sowing crops, adding fertilizers and manure, irrigating, controlling weeds, harvesting, and storing crops. Main crops are classified as kharif (monsoon) or rabi (winter) and include cereals, vegetables, and fruits. Practices are aimed at loosening soils, incorporating nutrients, and promoting growth of beneficial soil organisms to support crop cultivation. Agricultural tools such as ploughs, hoes, and cultivators are used for tilling, weeding, and breaking up soils.
Crop production involves growing plants for food, clothing, and other products. Important steps include soil preparation, selecting and sowing seeds, irrigation, weeding, crop protection, harvesting, threshing, and storage. Seeds are selected by testing their ability to float in water. Sowing can be done manually or with a seed drill, which distributes seeds evenly and at the right depth. Irrigation provides water to crops through traditional methods like canals or modern methods like sprinklers and drip irrigation. Weeding removes undesirable weeds, while crop protection safeguards crops from pests and diseases. Harvesting cuts and gathers crops, and threshing separates grains from plant matter. Crop rotation grows different crops in sequence to replen

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

16. What is meant by AGRICULTURE?
Agriculture is also called farming or husbandry. It is the
cultivation of animals, plants, fungi and other forms for food, fiber,
biofuel and other products used to sustain life. Agriculture was the key
development in the rise of sedentary human civilization, where by
farming of domesticated species created food surpluses that nurtured the
development of civilization. The study of agriculture is known as
agricultural science. Agriculture generally speaking refers to human
activities, although it is also observed in certain species of ant and
termites. Agricultural practices such as irrigation , crop rotation,
fertilizers, pesticides and animals were developed long ago.
17.
18. GENERALPRACTICES OF
AGRICULTURE
Cultivation of crops involves several activities over a period of time. These
activities are similar to those carried out by a gardener or even by you when you
grow ornamental plants in your house.
These activities or tasks are referred to as agricultural practices. The steps
involved in the agricultural practices are listed below.
Preparation of soil
Sowing
Adding of organic manure
Irrigation
Protecting from weeds
Harvesting
Storage
19. PREPARATION OF SOIL
The preparation of soil is the first step before growing a crop. One of
the important tasks in agriculture is to turn the soil and loosen it.
This allows the roots to penetrate deep into the soil. The loose soil
allows the roots to breathe easily even when they go deep into the
soil.
The loosened soil helps in the growth of earthworms and microbes
present in the soil.
The process of loosening and turning of the soil is called tilling or
ploughing
20. SOWING
• Sowing is the most important part of crop production. Before sowing,
good quality seeds are selected. Good quality seeds are clean and
healthy seeds of a good variety.
21. ADDING OF ORGANIC
MANURE
• The substances which are added to the soil in the form of nutrients for the
healthy growth of plants are called manure.
• Continuous growing of crops makes the soil poorer in certain nutrients.
Therefore, we have to add manure to the fields to replenish the soil with
nutrients. This process is called manuring.
• Manure is an organic substance obtained from the decomposition of
plant or animal wastes.
• The use of manure improves soil texture as well as its water retaining
capacity. It replenishes the soil with all the nutrients and also it increases the
number of friendly microbes.
• Another method of replenishing the soil with nutrients is through crop
rotation. This can be done by growing different crops alternatively.
22. IRRIGATION
The supply of water to crops at different intervals is called irrigation.
The time and frequency of irrigation varies from crop to crop, soil to
soil and season.
23. PROTECTION FROM WEEDS
• In a field many other undesirable plants may grow naturally along
with the crop. These undesirable plants are called weeds.
• The removal of weeds is called weeding .
• Weeding is necessary since weeds compete with the crop plants for
water, nutrients, space and light.
• A manual weed removal method is uprooting or cutting them close to
the ground, from time to time.
• Chemical weedicides adversely affected to health of farmers and
environment.
24. HARVESTING
Harvesting of a crop is an important task. The cutting of crop after it is
mature is called harvesting.
In harvesting , crops are pulled out or cut close to the ground.
Harvesting in our country is either done manually by sickle or by a
machine called harvester.
25. STORAGE
If the crop grains are to be kept for longer time, they should be safe from
moisture, insects, rats and microorganisms.
The fresh crop has more moisture. If freshly harvested grains are stored
without drying, they may get spoilt or attacked by organisms, losing their
germination capacity.
Hence, before storing them, the grains are properly dried in the sun to reduce
the moisture in them. This prevents the attack by insect pests, bacteria and
fungi.
