Conservation Agriculture is based on the practical application of three
interlinked principles of: Continuous no or minimum mechanical soil
disturbance (no-till seeding/planting and no-till weeding); maintenance of
soil much cover (crop biomass, stubble and cover crops); and
diversification of cropping system (rotations and/or sequences and/or
associations involving annuals and perennials including legumes), along
with other good agricultural practices (more at: www.fao.org/ag/ca).
