About The Books
Soil is the basis of farming. It delivers water and nutrients to crops, physically supports plants, helps control pests, determines where rainfall goes after it hits the earth, and protects the quality of drinking water, air, and wildlife habitat. The book provides very useful information about soil management for sustainable agriculture and environmental protection in general and the situation. In the light of discussions, recommendations are made to increase exchange of experience and activities in the area of research and technology development, especially the assessment methodologies, extension and training, policies and legislation, strategies, publications and networking. The book has evolved into a more comprehensive treatise of sustainable Soil Management for Sustainable Agriculture and Environmental Protection.
