520 | _aThe techniques of conservation farming have evolved primarily for the majority of farmers in the tropics who farm poorer soils at subsistence levels. They cannot afford the inputs, nor are the fragile ecosystems upon which they exist conducive to the 'high-input' technologies of the Green Revolution. Through conserving the natural resources of the soil, its surface and subsoil fertility, the water it receives from rainfall, and the natural recycling of forest vegetation, conservation farming aims to provide an essentially low-inputbut productive and self sustaining system of farming: farming for food and market as well as fodder for | ||
