“…In addition to causing sedimentation in areas with higher altitudes, eroded particles suffocate water pumps, dams, and grass-lined streams. Frequently, chemicals that are harmful to people, animals, and aquatic life are present in the water currents from fields [38].…”

It is anticipated that modern agriculture practice patterns will accelerate soil erosion in a negative way. Evaluating the long-term impact of various management strategies on a large farm is a gauge of the sustainable practices of soil nutrients. To find areas at risk, there are generally three different methods used: qualitative research, statistical approach, and model approach. Each of these approaches has distinctive features and applications. The use of geographic databases created using GIS technology has improved all techniques and strategies created recently. The sustainability of agricultural ecosystems worldwide is severely threatened by low or nonexistent attention given to environmental impact assessments, which also seriously threaten soil systems. Both conventional field-based methodologies and soil erosion modeling can be employed to quantify soil erosion. Agricultural automation has increased along with the accessibility of finer scale global level data, strengthening agri-environmental related modeling approaches. Due to the laborious, moment, limited flexibility, and noncomparability of field-based methods, soil erosion modeling has many advantages over these assessments. The examined models will be examined this season in the direction of wind erosion. The model is useful for forecasting and highlighting the areas most impacted by erosion while also saving time and resources.

“…Additionally, the type of soil has a significant impact on the bioavailability of DDT remediation in the soil [152] . The texture of soil particles has a direct impact on the availability of potential DDT-degrading microbes [153] . Loam and sand have the maximum DDT availability, while fine-textured clay soils and clay loam have the lowest availability [154] .…”

“…There are additional off-site implications from the transport of soil nutrients and surface-applied pollutants. Blowing dust may also be hazardous to one's health and safety, as well as to the health and safety of others around one's (Rashmi et al 2022). Farm yields are also affected by tillage erosion.…”

A broad range of ecological issues may be traced back to agricultural soil management methods that have a significant influence on ecosystems health across the globe. Agriculture has a major influence on the environment via soil quality deterioration or degradation. There are several types i.e., salinity, erosion, water logging and soil pollution with organic and inorganic contaminants and contributing factors to soil degradation. The inclusion of sustainable development goals (SDGs) related to the soil use as zero hunger (SDG 2), decent work and economic growth (SDG 8), climate action (SDG 13), life on land (SDG 15) contributes and important in human wellbeing via producing food crops (SDG 2), increasing economic growth (SDG 8), sequestering atmospheric emissions for climate change mitigation (SDG 13), and betterment of life on earth (SDG 13). Factors include non-suitable agricultural practices, usage of wide fields without limits to impede water flow, and improper ploughing techniques. The key element to limit the soil degradation is reducing pressure on natural resources and their over-exploitation. In this chapter, authors have discussed the soil degradation, causes and their remedies in detail.
