Promote measures such as crop rotation that require less fertilizer and hence reduce the risk of nitrate leaching into surface and subsurface waters. Yet to be implemented. Short term. Promote reduced tillage and modern grazing practices such as zero grazing, to allow carbon to remain in the soil as a result of less microbial activities. Yet to be implemented. Long term. Promote measures to reduce crop-residue burning. Field burning of agricultural residue had increased by 61% in 2015 from 2012, with a compound annual growth rate of 17.5%.
