Khetha impendulo efanele kulokhu okulandelayo: Umhlabathi wakhiwe:
Impendulo ithi: Amatshe amakhulu.
Umhlabathi uyingxube eyinkimbinkimbi yamaminerali, izinto eziphilayo, umoya namanzi.
Iqukethe izinsalela zezingxenye zezitshalo, izinto eziphilayo ezifile, izingcezu zamadwala, kanye ne-humus (izinto eziphilayo ezibolile).
Umhlabathi ubalulekile emisebenzini eminingi endaweni okubandakanya ukuhlinzeka ngemisoco ezitshalweni nakwezinye izinto eziphilayo, ukugcina amanzi nekhabhoni, nokulawula isimo sezulu.
Isebenza futhi njengekhaya lezinhlobonhlobo zezinto eziphilayo.
Umhlabathi ungathinteka yizinto ezibonakalayo ezifana nesimo sezulu, i-geology, i-topography, nokuphazamiseka.
Kungaphinde kuthintwa imisebenzi yabantu efana nezinqubo zezolimo kanye nezinguquko ekusetshenzisweni komhlaba.
Kubalulekile ukuqonda ukwakheka komhlabathi ukuze uphathe kahle.
Izinhlobo zenhlabathi ezehlukene zinezakhiwo ezehlukene okufanele zicatshangelwe lapho kwakhiwa izinhlelo zokulima noma izinhlelo zokusetshenziswa komhlaba.
Umhlabathi futhi uhlinzeka ngezinsizakalo ezibalulekile ze-ecosystem njengokuhlunga ukungcola emanzini kanye nokukhipha ikhabhoni emkhathini.
Ukuze kuqinisekiswe inhlabathi enempilo ezizukulwaneni ezizayo, kubalulekile ukuyilondoloza ngokusebenzisa izindlela zokuphatha ezisimeme.
