Experts Urge Crop Diversification to Save Soil and Water

Experts in agriculture had a big meeting in Telangana to talk about how to help the farms there.

They said that growing too much rice is causing big problems.

The soil is getting worse because of how farmers are preparing it, and it's making it hard for water to go back into the ground.

They also said that most of the water is being used to grow rice, which is not good.

The experts think that farmers should grow different kinds of crops instead of just rice.

They also want women, who do a lot of the farm work, to be recognized as farmers so they can get help and money to do their jobs better.

They want the government to make rules that help small farmers, who make up most of the farming community.
