Soil Conservation is important because all the living beings of our earth directly or indirectly depend on the soil of the earth.
Irrational human activities has caused the unnecessary extension of agricultural fields, now townships have spruce up, collection of minerals and extensive grazing of the cattle have harmed the soils exceedingly.
Development of agriculture, flora and fauna anywhere in the world depends largely on the soil.

Soil conservation is the preventing of soil loss from erosion or reduced fertility caused by over usage, acidification, salinization or other chemical soil contamination.
Slash-and-burn and other unsustainable methods of subsistence farming are practiced in some lesser developed areas. A sequel to the deforestation is typically large scale erosion, loss of soil nutrients and sometimes total desertification. Techniques for improved soil conservation include crop rotation, cover crops, conservation tillage and planted windbreaks and affect both erosion and fertility. When plants, especially trees, die, they decay and become part of the soil. Code 330 defines standard methods recommended by the U.S. Natural Resources Conservation Service. Farmers have practiced soil conservation for millennia.
