Over-population is already straining the " carrying capacity " of the middle hill areas, particularly the Kathmandu Valley, resulting in the depletion of forest cover for crops, fuel, and fodder and contributing to erosion and flooding.

Plantation farming resulted in a drastic reduction in the natural forest cover and the substitution of domesticated crops, such as rubber, tea, or cinnamon.

Snow cover can protect crops from extreme cold.

This form of cropping system is likely to produce better soil cover than a rigid crop rotation because crops are only sown under optimal conditions, whereas rigid systems are not necessarily sown in the best conditions available.

The phenomenon was caused by severe drought coupled with decades of extensive farming without crop rotation, fallow fields, cover crops or other techniques to prevent wind erosion.

Permanent crops cover only 2 %, meadows and pastures cover 4 %, and forests and woodland cover about 16 %.

Crop rotation and green manure (" cover crops ") help to provide nitrogen through legumes ( more precisely, the Fabaceae family ) which fix nitrogen from the atmosphere through symbiosis with rhizobial bacteria.

Organic crop rotations frequently include weed-suppressive cover crops and crops with dissimilar life cycles to discourage weeds associated with a particular crop.

# Soil surface: cover crops to retain soil and lessen erosion, along with green manures to add nutrients and organic matter to the soil, especially nitrogen

* using crop rotation and cover crops to suppress nematodes in potatoes

* using cover crops ( especially those with allelopathic properties ) that out-compete weeds or inhibit their regeneration.

Much useful knowledge can be obtained about our land by observation of the wild plants and cover crops that are growing, and their condition.

Sowing green manure crops such as grazing rye to cover soil over the winter will help to prevent nitrogen leaching, while leguminous green manures such as winter tares will fix additional nitrogen from the atmosphere.

In the latter case, Devereux hypothesises that ripe cereal crops grown on the intervening hill would perfectly cover the upper portion of Silbury, with the top of the corn and the top of Silbury coinciding.

In fact, there is a general consensus that no-till can increase soils capacity of acting as a carbon sink, especially when combined with cover crops.

Maps of land cover and land use from thematic mapping can be used to prospect for minerals, detect or monitor land usage, deforestation, and examine the health of indigenous plants and crops, including entire farming regions or forests.

Most members of the genus are aggressive and / or invasive weeds, though some have been used as cover crops in the field and ornamental plants in the garden.

Also part of the O ' Brien method is minimal disturbance of the soil by tilling, use of compost, mulch, cover crops, and green manures, use of permanent raised beds and permanent hard-packed paths between them, laying out beds from north to south, putting plants in double rows or more so that not every row has a path on both sides.

Incorporation of cover crops into the soil is immediately followed by an increase in abundance of soil microorganisms that aid in the decomposition of this fresh material.

Green manure crops often provide habitat for many native pollinators as well as predatory beneficial insects, which allow for a reduction in the input of insecticides where cover crops are planted.

One of the primary uses of cover crops is to increase soil fertility.
