324 Soil and Water Conservation: Management Practices to Increase Sustainability: I

Soil and water conservation are critical to maintaining agricultural sustainability in the coming decades. Adaptation of practices to enhance crop productivity and protect the environment are both local and global issues. This session will explore new applications of management practices to protect soil and water resources.
