This book is
organized into two sections. The first section covers three major aspects, viz.,
an understanding of patterns of land degradation and desertification for
developing mitigation strategies, land-atmosphere interaction from response of
land cover to climate change effects of Karst rocky desertification. The last
section dwells on the relationship between soil degradation and crop production
and an examination on how land degradation impacts the quality of soil in
communal rangelands.
Soil Fertility book presents nine chapters written by renowned soil
fertility experts from Africa, Asia and South America. The book is divided into
two sections. Section 1, Biological Processes and Integration of Inorganic and
Organic Fertilizers for Soil Fertility Improvement, examines biological
processes that can enhance the soil fertility. The second section,
Improving Fertilizer Recommendation and Efficiency, looks at the
state-of-the-art in leaf sampling and analysis.
