Why it is necessary to maintain fertility of soil
Answers
Answer:
The following properties contribute to soil fertility in most situations: Sufficient soil depth for adequate root growth and water retention; Good internal drainage, allowing sufficient aeration for optimal root growth (although some plants, such as rice, tolerate waterlogging);
Answer:
Fertile soil ensures plant survival. Fertile soil holds plants in place while providing them with the life-supporting nutrients that they need to survive.
Plants ensure our survival. The food (nutrients) that all living organisms, including humans need in order to survive comes immediately or indirectly from plants.
So, soil fertility is important. Without fertile soil we would have no plants. Without plants we would have no food. And without food, there is no us, since we need food to survive.
