Manures, Fertilizers and Agricultural Chemicals
This PDF is a comprehensive text that the department of soil science and agricultural chemistry at S.V. Agricultural College has developed on the different inputs necessary to improve agricultural productivity. The document is preceded by an introduction to bulky organic manures, where the amount lost at the time of collection and storage of farm yard manure (FYM) is reported. It deals with the preparation of composts, green manures, and terms of various organic wastes-terms like sewage and sludge. The book covers concentrated organic manures, biogas plants, and processes of manufacture of commercial fertilizers - both of nitrogenous, phosphatic, and potassic type. It also gives a rundown on mixed fertilizers and amendments, and secondary and micronutrient fertilizers. An essential feature is the Fertilizer Control Order, and thus this article becomes a fundamental reference point for understanding the role of fertilizers and manures in sustainable agriculture.

Elements of Scientific Agriculture
John Pitkin Norton's is a comprehensive guide to the basic elements of scientific agriculture. The notes contain all the major detail related to the organic and inorganic contents of the plant, characteristics of soil, and manures. Besides, it also deals with the utilization of crops as feed to animals along with structure of milk and other dairy products. It is, therefore, for people who are interested in scientific technology behind agricultural practice, as this resource will provide a more comprehensive view on how contributing factors go into effective crop production and sustainability.
