Investigating the Impact of Different Crop Rotation Systems on Soil Fertility and Pest Management. MSC

Abstract:
This research project aims to investigate the impact of different crop rotation systems on soil fertility and pest management. Crop rotation is a widely recognized agricultural practice that involves the sequential planting of different crops in a specific order over time. It has been shown to have numerous benefits, including improved soil fertility, enhanced nutrient cycling, reduced pest pressure, and increased crop productivity. This study will involve field experiments, soil sampling, pest monitoring, and data analysis to assess the effects of different crop rotation systems on soil fertility parameters, pest populations, and crop performance. The findings of this research will contribute to the development of sustainable crop rotation strategies that promote soil health and effective pest management.
