Vol. 3 No. 3 (2023) Soil Health, Animal Health, and Water Quality in Agroecological Systems

Examines the interconnectedness of soil quality, animal well-being, and water resources within sustainable agricultural ecosystems. Healthy soil enriched with organic matter and microbial diversity supports plant growth, which in turn nourishes animals and contributes to food security. Safe water quality is essential for both livestock and crop irrigation, as contaminated water can negatively impact animal health and compromise soil and plant integrity. This theme emphasizes integrated management practices that maintain soil fertility, promote animal welfare, and protect water resources, contributing to a resilient agroecological system.
