At present, there is no comprehensive text book on 'Soil Fertility and Nutrient Management'
and applied aspects suitable for farmers. This book will provide comprehensive
information on the subject matter and fulfil the needs of students and other
professionals. This book makes an attempt to present the available information
on soil conservation and fertility management for agriculture in a cogent and
easily understandable manner. This is a book containing all sorts of chapters
on soil conservation and soil fertility management for farming. Though this
book primarily written to serve as a text book/reference for the students of
agriculture in under graduate and post graduate levels and technologists in
developing organizations, it is hoped that this book will be valuable for
similar groups in the third world countries of Asia and Africa. This book also
serves as a valuable reference for the candidates preparing Agricultural
Research Services and other competitive examinations. Professional Institutions
in Soil Conservation, Krishi Vigyan Kendra's and Rural Institutions and similar
other Institutions would find this book very much helpful. The farmers may
refer this book to practice integrated farming and cropping systems as the
considerable emphasis is placed for obtaining maximum, profitable production
per unit area per unit time.
The book contains fourteen chapters which include all
aspects of Soil Fertility and Nutrient Management such as Introduction, Soil
Fertility and Productivity, Source of Plant Nutrients, Fertilizers,
Bio-Fertilizers, Soil Organic Matter, Soil Fertility Management and Fertilizer
Use, Loss of Nutrient from the Soil, Organic Farming, Farming Systems,
Sustainable Agriculture, Nutrient Management, Agronomic Measures in Soil and
Water Conservation and Moisture Stress and Conservation in Dry lands with
adequate references. Each chapter is brief, comprehensive full-fledged with
respect to technical information.
It is hoped that the book will serve a good reference source
for those interested in soil conservation and fertility management for
agriculture.
