HYDERABAD: If we keep the soil healthy, in return it will keep us healthy by allowing us to produce nutritious food. Taking care of soil fertility is important for food security. Thus, it depends on us!
This was the crux of the debate at a seminar on “Soil conservation and efficient water management for sustainable agriculture” on the occasion of World Soil Day, jointly organised by Sindh Agriculture University (SAU) Tandojam and Research and Development Foundation (RDF) on Thursday.
The event attracted soil scientists, researchers, farmers from Mirpurkhas district, members of water associations, farmer organisations and those producing compost and bio-char for rehabilitation of soil fertility.
