Abstract

This study explores effective ways to regulate water for ecological farming using secondary data, highlighting the critical role that water economy plays in safeguarding crop output and the ecology. It covers a variety of approaches for improving consumption of water while maintaining a healthy soil, such as irrigation by drip, gathering rainfall, and soil- moisture conservation. The project also investigates how technologies such as automation systems, GIS, and rainfall meters could enhance the control of water. It identifies major barriers to food security, such as global warming, high implementation costs, and a reluctance to embrace green methods, and shows how these barriers must be overcome through technological innovation, financial incentives, and education.
