Agriculture and Environment
कृषि और पर्यावरण
In this Class 9 Agriculture chapter, students explore the close relationship between farming and the environment. They learn how soil, water, air, plants, animals, and biodiversity support agricultural production, while farming activities can also affect ecological balance. The chapter introduces responsible resource use, soil and water conservation, pollution control, and sustainable agricultural practices, helping learners understand how productive farming can be combined with environmental protection.
1Sustainable farming
सतत कृषि
In this Class 9 Agriculture topic from the chapter “Agriculture and Environment,” students learn how farming can meet food needs while protecting natural resources for the future. They explore soil health, water conservation, crop rotation, mixed farming, organic manures, biodiversity and integrated pest management. The topic helps students compare farming practices, understand the effects of excessive chemical use and resource depletion, and evaluate how farmers can maintain productivity while reducing environmental harm through responsible and locally suitable choices.
4 questionsOrganic farming
जैविक खेती
In this Class 9 Agriculture topic from “Agriculture and Environment,” students learn how जैविक खेती produces crops through natural processes and inputs rather than relying mainly on synthetic fertilisers and pesticides. They explore compost, farmyard manure, green manure, biofertilisers, biopesticides, crop rotation, mixed cropping and beneficial organisms. The topic connects these practices with soil fertility, water quality, biodiversity, food safety and long-term sustainability, while also considering challenges such as pest control, labour needs and maintaining yields.
0 questionsSoil and water conservation
मृदा एवं जल संरक्षण
In Class 9 Agriculture, this topic explores how soil and water support farming and why both resources need careful management. Students learn about soil erosion, its causes and effects, methods of conserving fertile topsoil, and ways to reduce water loss. The topic introduces practices such as contour ploughing, terracing, mulching, rainwater harvesting, check dams, crop rotation, and planting vegetation. Linked to Agriculture and Environment, it helps students understand sustainable farming and responsible resource use.
1 questionsEnvironmental impact of farming
कृषि का पर्यावरणीय प्रभाव
In this Class 9 Agriculture topic from “Agriculture and Environment,” students explore how farming affects soil, water, air, biodiversity, and climate. They examine problems linked with excessive fertilizers and pesticides, soil erosion, over-irrigation, crop residue burning, and loss of habitats. The topic also introduces practical approaches such as crop rotation, balanced nutrient use, organic matter management, integrated pest control, water conservation, and other sustainable farming practices that help protect natural resources while supporting food production.
