Abstract:
Climate change is an alarming issue of today’s world. Besides, world population is also growing fast. So, agriculture practices need to be modified to ‘climate-smart’ strategies to overcome dual challenges of climate change as well as food security. The concept of climate smart agriculture (CSA) is based on three pillars: (1) ensuring agronomic and economic productivity, (2) building resilience to combat climate change, (3) mitigating climate change i.e., reducing and/or removing carbon emissions. Climate-smart agriculture is an amalgamation of weather, water, soil, crop, nutrient, carbon-energy and institute-knowledge smart technologies. This article aims to discuss principles and practices of soil management segment of CSA which is based on principles like erosion control, sustainable management of land, carbon management etc. Among different soil management practices Integrated nutrient management (INM), organic farming, conservation agriculture, precise application of fertilizer, smart fertilizers, biochar application, agro forestry etc. are promising. However, in CSA, soil management necessitates both innovative concepts and long-term planning and policies to attain a win-win situation.
