Soil Moisture Management

Soil moisture management refers to practices that optimize the amount of water in the soil to support plant growth while conserving water resources. This involves monitoring soil moisture levels, using techniques like mulching or crop rotation, and implementing irrigation systems tailored to the needs of the crops. Proper management ensures plants receive the right amount of water, reduces water wastage, and helps maintain soil health. It is vital for agriculture, particularly in areas prone to drought or flooding, and contributes to sustainable farming practices by balancing water use with environmental conservation.
