Hey mate!
Here's your answer!!
The fertility of soil is restored naturally by adopting the following methods:
- Fallowing: In this method, land is left uncultivated (fallow) for one or more seasons. The fallow land regains the nutrients by decomposition of remains of plants and animals by the action of microbes.
- Crop Rotation: Crop Rotationis the method of growing different crops alternatly on the same field. For Ex. The farmers grow crops like wheat or barley in the first year. This is followed by growing leguminous plants like pea or soyabean in the next season. This helps in replenishment of soil with nitrogen.
- Mixed cropping: In this method, two or more crops are grown together in the same field. The crops are selected in such a manner that the nutrient requirement of one crop is fulfilled by the other.
Hope it helps you mate ✌️
