The Linkage between Agricultural Practices and Environmental Degradation

Everything surrounding us is environment. Human have been benefit from nature since existence. Environmental pollution is a main problem now days and is likely to influence the daily life of human populations. The advancement in science and technological activities yielded disruptive results in nature.This paper provides the insight view about the linkages and effects of various agricultural practices on our environment. The effects of human on environment were unconsidered initially because of environment renewability feature; even it was thought that the environment would eradicate the impurity. But with the passage of time the harmful effect became more than renewability capacity of environment therefore the environment started to deteriorate rapidly. Main reasons of environment pollution are irregular and rapid industry, urbanization, organic and inorganic wastes that left in environment, unintended usage of agricultural lands and wrong agricultural applications. Erroneous using of pesticides and chemical fertilizers, irrigation, tillage, plant hormone applications and lack of knowledge are the key reasons. Also stubble burning, planting without rotation and inappropriate animal wastes are assumed as mistakes. Due to unsustainable human practices and activities the entire production platform of the planet has now become seriously endangered.
