*Conservation Agriculture is an ecosystem approach to regenerative
sustainable agriculture and land management based on the practical
application of locally adapted  three interlinked principles of: (i)
Continuous no or minimum mechanical soil disturbance (no-till
seeding/planting and weeding, and minimum soil disturbance with all other
farm operations including harvesting);  (ii) permanent maintenance of soil
much cover (crop biomass, stubble and cover crops); and (iii)
diversification of cropping system (environmentally, environmentally and
socially adapted rotations and/or sequences and/or associations involving
annuals and perennials, including legumes and cover crops), along with
other complementary good agricultural production and land management
practices. Conservation Agriculture systems are present in all continents,
involving rainfed and irrigated systems including annual cropland systems,
perennial systems, orchards and plantation systems, agroforestry systems,
crop-livestock systems, organic production systems and rice-based systems
(more at*: www.fao.org/ag/ca).
