IMPORTANCE
OF
AGRICULTURE
IN
INDIAN ECONOMY
Large Share in Gross National income
•Agriculture is contributing 18% of NI
•Before Independence it is contributing 70% of NI
Why it is decreased now a days?????
: Due to the growth of Industries & service Sector
Agriculture
Provides
large employment
Opportunities
1.As India is more populated nation.
2.Agriculture is main occupation in India
3.More than 65% of people indulge in Agriculture
4.Now days it is reducing because of development of non agriculture sector.
Supply food to the people
Industrial Development
As agriculture develop industries will develop
As paddy grows more…………….
Rice mills will increases.
In this region paddy grows more so. Rice mills were more established in this region.
Raw Cotton grows
Cotton textile Mills will Increase
Sugarcane
Sugar Industry
MUSTARD PLANT Sun Flower field
Mustard Industry Sunflower Industry
AGRO- BASED INDUSTRY
It helps in Foreign Trade
•Agriculture is playing very important role in Export.
•The share agricultural exports in total exports is more than 10%.

SOIL EROSION
MEANING OF SOIL EROSION
•The detachment and movement of topsoil by the action of wind and
flowing water.
•Soil erosion refers to loss of fertility of top soil
TYPES OF
SOIL EROSION
WATER EROSION
Sheet ErosionThe removal of the entire topsoil as a
result of heavy rains is called sheet erosion.
Rill ErosionRunoff water moves across the soil forming small streams.
The topsoil is removed only in these rills formed by the water streams.
Riparian ErosionThe banks of rivers lose top soil due to the action of the fast moving rivers
waters. These waters remove the underlying soil and this results in the loss of topsoil

EFFECTS OF SOIL EROSION
• LOSS OF OM, CLAY, AND NUTRIENTS REDUCES PRODUCTIVITY
• DAMAGE TO PLANTS
• FORMATION OF RILLS AND GULLIES AFFECTS MANAGEMENT
• SEDIMENTATION IN WATERWAYS, DIVERSIONS, TERRACES, DITCHES
• DELIVERY OF NUTRIENTS TO SURFACE WATER
What is soil Conservation ?
The prevention of soil erosion and increasing the fertility of the soil……
What
are
the
methods
of
soil conservation ?????
Afforestaion
When the land is covered with vegetation, the roots of the plants and trees interlock and interlace to bind the soil particles. This helps in two ways:
1.Does not allow the soil particles to be carried away by wind or water
2.Does not allow free flow of water over the soil which prevent erosion of soil by flowing water
3.The falling leaves of the plants get converted to humus by decomposing action of the soil microbes. This enriches the soil.
Control of over-grazing
The practice of growing different crops at different times on the same land is called crop rotation. This keeps the topsoil covered with vegetation. Rotation of cereal crops with legumes also keeps the soil enriched with nitrogen.
Crop Rotation
Strip Cropping
It involves growing of crops in strips. The most common method followed is the contour farming where the strips of crop are at right angles to the slope. Wind-strip cropping is when the strips of crop are place at right angles to the direction of wind.
Terracing
Fields are cut at right angles to the slope. This slows down the flowing water and allows it to irrigate the crops, as wells.
Dam Building
With the dams the speed and amount of water flowing can be controlled. This will control the soil erosion of the river banks.
Wind Breakers
Trees are planted across
the wind direction to protect against the high velocity
winds. These rows of trees are
called shelter belts or wind
breakers.
