Why soil health card is important?

Many farmers in India do not have the knowledge on the types of crops that gives good yields, quality and the type of their soil. They might know by experience what crops grow and what crops fail. But they don’t know what they can do to improve the condition of the soil. The Soil Health Card will contain an advisory based on the soil nutrient status of a farmer’s holding. It will show recommendations on the dosage of different nutrients needed. It will also advise the farmer on the fertilizers and quantities one should apply to gain maximum yield.
