Integrating Cash Crop Hedgerows and Balanced Fertilization to Control Soil and Water Losses from Sloping Farmlands

摘要

Based on several years of research and demonstrations, adopting cash crop hedgerows and balanced fertilizer technology to combat soil erosion has proven very practical and applicable. It not only reduces soil erosion from sloping farmlands, but also increases crop yield and farmers' income. This integrated new technology has realized the goal of combining social, ecological, and economic benefits, and can thus safeguard sustainable agriculture on sloping lands.
