Soil Quality and Agricultural Sustainability

Soil Quality and Agricultural Sustainability

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The decrease in horticultural resources and productivity has inspired Soil Quality and Agricultural Sustainability, which is based primarily on papers presented at the 1996 conference on soil degradation, sponsored by Ohio State University, the USAID and the International Agricultural Research Centers. The book is in six sections: basic concepts and global issues, nutrient and water inputs, soil quality management in Asia, in Africa, and in the Tropical Americas, and future priorities. The Editor's goal is a new paradigm in soil quality research: a multidisciplinary, optimistic, and forward-thinking approach. The 26 chapters paint a comprehensive portrait of the current state, and future prospects, for worldwide agronomic viability.
