Some of the most common sustainable agriculture techniques used by farmers today to achieve the goals of weed control, pest control, disease control, erosion control and high soil quality are :
1. Crop Rotation : Growing different crops one after the other on the same field.
2. Cover Crops : Allowing plants to grow in the soil at all times instead of leaving the ground bare between cropping periods.
3. Soil Enrichment : Achieved by leaving crop residues in the field after harvest, plowing under cover crops, or adding composted plant material or animal manure.
4. Natural Pest Predators : Using natural pest predators like birds, insects and spiders for pest control.
5. Biointensive Integrated Pest Management : Using Integrated Pest Management technology for pest control.
