Surface Seeding of Wheat: A Sustainable Way towards Climate Resilience Agriculture

Conventional tillage (CT)-based agriculture is known to be ecologically indiscreet, economically and environmentally unsustainable, leads the degradation of soil environment in Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP). The surface seeding (SS) method was introduced manage agro-ecosystems for sustaining productivity increasing farmers’ profits, while natural resources. Here, we conducted a systematic literature review on SS wheat reported IGP, with aim cover concept SS, its impact yield, properties, environment, potential benefits constraints. major findings are: (i) an SS-based rice–wheat system improves (?10%) profitability (20–30%),while employing lesser amount irrigation water (15–30%) energy input (20–25%) compared conventional system; (ii) more adaptive extreme climatic conditions, reduces carbon footprint, increases crop production; (iii) approach enhances health by virtue increased organic improved aggregation, as well soil, water, conservation; (iv) consisting no-tillage substantial residue retention offers alternative burning. Strong policies/legislation are required encourage wheat, order limit burning, provide farmers credits exchange sequestration reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
