This book addresses the key to the development of sustainable agriculture management of soil fertility. Combining data from temperate and tropical regions, it presents a complete picture of how various soils can best be managed under widely different environmental conditions. This book serves as an excellent reference for professionals as well as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students preparing for a career in agriculture or soil fertility management.

This book addresses the key to the development of sustainable agriculture management of soil fertility. Combining data from temperate and tropical regions, it presents a complete picture of how various soils can best be managed under widely different environmental conditions. This book serves as an excellent reference for professionals as well as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students preparing for a career in agriculture or soil fertility management. It addresses the soil fertility problems of developing countries, including both temperate and tropical zones and exposes students to the basics of soil fertility, including soil chemistry and soil biology, and the various problems encountered in different parts of the world. TOC:Introduction. Essential Plant Nutrients. Soil the Sustainer. Soil Colloids. Organic Matter. Soil Acidity. Soil Salinity and Sodicity. Nitrogen. Phosphorus. Potassium. Sulfur. Calcium and Magnesium. Iron and Manganese. Copper and Zinc. Boron and Molybdenum. Chlorine. Beneficial Elements. Nutrient Interactions. Organic Manures. Cropping Systems, Soil Fertility, and Fertilizer Use. Each chapter contains References.
