Abstract
Bangladeshi agriculture depends on fertile soil and efficient water management. Over the past few decades, poor soil condition, overuse of fertilizers use, and wasteful water use have all had a negative impact on crop yield. Therefore, sustainable agriculture depends on efficient use of water and soil resources. Now purpose of the study is to provide knowledge for sustainable agricultural productivity, this study will explore the patterns in soil organic matter, water use efficiency, fertilizer usage, and crop production from 1995 to 2024 as well as look into the relationships between these factors. Here Time series data analysis methods were used to study of 30 years dataset from 1995 to 2024. Soil Organic Matter over Time, Water Use Efficiency over Time, Crop Yield Trend, Crop Yield in comparison to Water Use Efficiency, and Crop Yield compared to Fertilizer Usage were all represented by line charts, both separately and collectively. To determine the connections and highlight important factors influencing agricultural productivity. Now the results show the important connection between crop yield and soil organic matter and water use efficiency. More efficient water use is corresponded with higher agricultural production, according to the agricultural Yield Trend and Water Use Efficiency graph. However, an examination of the Fertilizer Usage Trend against Crop Yield indicates that applying too much fertilizer does not always increase yield and sometimes even be a factor in decreasing the amount of soil organic matter. In conclusion, the study shows that long term sustainability of the environment and increased agricultural productivity can be achieved by implementing sustainable soil and water management techniques. These results offer important suggestions for developing science based integrated agriculture management in Bangladesh and ensuring future food security.
