Nutrient Management for Sustainable Crop Production in Asia (CABI Publishing)

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
During the past thirty years Asia has seen substantial increases in crop yields due to advances in plant breeding and the use of nitrogenous and phosphatic fertilizers. Whether this Green Revolution can continue to keep up with population growth remains an open question, especially given that
in some cases yields are no longer being sustained. Soil quality is a key issue, and this book discusses ways to reverse soil degradation and improve nutrient levels in Asia. The result of an international conference held in Bali in December 1996 and initiated by The World Phosphate Institute
(IMPHOS), the volume includes reports on nutrient management and balance, the potential of different phosphate sources, rock phosphate efficiency in acid upland soils, current usage and future requirements for fertilizers, sustainability and the environment, and policy and pricing.
