Major Environmental Changes Affecting The Crops

With the rise in the population, people have witnessed an increase in many environmental issues as well. Every year the entire nation witnesses the killing air-quality of Delhi/NCR. Many measures are taken every year to reduce its impact but to no success. There are many residents who have left the city, and many are planning to do so gradually, because of this reason. Nobody wants to lead their life by inhaling the poisonous air. All the schools in DELHI/NCR are majorly closed around Diwali due to the hazardous air quality.

But where are we heading as a society? We talk and motivate people to take initiatives, but in the long run, are we following them? It is the time in October every year when the farmers in Punjab and Haryana burn their crop waste known as stubble burning. This is done to reduce the turnaround time between harvesting and sowing for the second crop. The biggest harmful effect of this is the pollution caused by its smoke.

Impact on Agriculture

The environmental impact of agriculture is the effect that different farming practices have on the ecosystems around them. It invariably depends on the production practices used by the farmers. Some of the prominent environmental issues related to agriculture are climate change, deforestation, irrigation problems, genetic engineering, soil degradation, waste, and pollutants.

Talking about the climatic changes, global warming is said to have the most significant impacts on the conditions affecting agriculture. Rising carbon di-oxide levels has its own effects on crop yields. If we talk about the agricultural effect on climatic changes, the production and release of greenhouse gases will top the charts. Agriculture that practices tillage, fertilization, and pesticide application also release ammonia, nitrate, phosphorus, and many other pesticides that affect air, water, and soil quality, as well as biodiversity. An interesting fact to know about agriculture is that it also alters the Earth’s land cover. This can change the ability to absorb or reflect heat and light. 

Healthy farming practices, in other words, can be termed as sustainable agriculture. It is the idea that agriculture should happen in such a way that it produces what is necessary without violating the ability for future generations to do so. To handle the changes stated above, attention is required for the soil, irrigation water, crops, and their management practices, nutrients, and the environmental security of the nation.
