Description

The function and structure of agricultural production systems, as well as the overall social and environmental sustainability, depend on natural resources, particularly water and soil. Humans depend on natural resources for survival, either directly or indirectly. Natural resources include things like plants, animals, minerals, sunlight, water, air, soil, and water. Nature also serves as the only source for our basic need, such as clothing, food, and shelter. The protection of natural resources poses difficulties for policymakers, in part because it is no longer just a national issue but a global one. Consequently, international institutions and rules pertaining to the preservation of natural resources and the protection of the environment must be formed, but the participation of national governments is as important. Today's farmers are searching for innovative strategies to boost productivity and cut costs due to rising input costs and falling crop prices. Precision farming can help increase production and profitability in this aspect. Any aspect of our natural environment that man can use to further his welfare, such as land, water, air, minerals, forests, rangelands, wildlife, fish, or even the population, may be regarded as a natural resource. This is why natural resources preservation is so important.
