Soil Fertility and Plant Nutrition is an applied science that integrates knowledge across all disciplines of soil and plant sciences to provide nutrients effectively and efficiently to plants. Efficient use of nutrients is required not only to maximize agricultural production but also to protect air, soil, and water quality as well as the natural resources involved in providing fertilizers to support agricultural production. This book “Experimental Soil Biology and Fertility” brought out by Dr.A.S.Mailappa, is truly a ‘tour de force’ of condensation of the essentials of scientific knowledge and approaches to soil science and discusses the various aspects of soil fertility and crop nutrition with a focus on collection, preparation and analysis of essential plant nutrients in soil, plant and water. This present book is different in its league, written in a very simpler and lucid manner covering all aspects of soil fertility and biology in well-illustrated comprehensive chapters. This book has the admirable quality of being both organized to facilitate rapid look-up of information and being written in a readable style. The topics and discussion in this self-contained book are practical and user-friendly, yet comprehensive enough to cover material presented in upper-level soil and plant science courses. It allows practitioners with general background knowledge to feel confident applying the principles presented to soil / crop production systems.
