Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, titled “Sustainable Agriculture: Soil, Water and Environmental Practices in Climate Change”, explores sustainable agricultural practices with a focus on soil health, water management, and environmental conservation in the context of climate change. It examines strategies for optimizing water use, enhancing soil fertility, and implementing eco-friendly farming techniques to improve agricultural resilience, as well as food quality and security. Key topics include carbon sequestration, adaptive irrigation, drainage optimization, biodiversity preservation, and climate-smart farming methods such as crop rotation, conservation tillage, and organic practices. By integrating scientific research with practical applications, this Special Issue serves as a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, agronomists, and environmental professionals committed to advancing sustainable agriculture and mitigating climate change impacts.
