Hardcover. Condición: New. Soil Science is a unique discipline concerning a complex material that is part of many natural and utilitarian systems. Geology is the applied discipline of science and is now established as an interdisciplinary subject within agriculture, soil and environmental science as the agriculturists and soil /environmental scientists heavily require geological knowledge and information to apply in the field. This book is a easy ready reckoner cum reference on geology and soils for the undergraduate students of Agriculture, Horticulture and Forestry. The author has presented his academic & professional experience and conception on all aspects of geology and soils, and the book is written in a very simpler and lucid manner, following the syllabi of latest Fifth Deans' Committee for undergraduate programmes. This book is primarily intended for the students and scientists associated with agriculture and allied disciplines, for having a better understanding, a prerequisite for progressing ahead in acquiring in-depth knowledge on the application aspects of soil science in relation to crop growth.

Soft cover. Condición: New. The soils which possess characteristics that make them uneconomical for the cultivation of crops without adopting proper reclamation measures are known as problematic soils. Problematic soils and water present a major threat to farm agricultural production, leading to adverse implications for food security, environmental health, and economic welfare. The restoration of such affected land and water will go a long way in meeting the increased global food production to feed the burgeoning world population at the current levels of per capita food supply. This unique book on 'Management of Problematic Soils and Water", addresses the crucial issues of soil-constraints and quality of irrigation water and provides a comprehensive picture of the fundamental principle and practices of problematic soils, their management and reclamation methods, including the efficient utilization of poor quality water for agriculture. This book comprises of seventeen chapters covering the various topics of problematic soils and water, as recommended by Fifth Deans' Committee of ICAR, and written in a very cogent, concise and comprehensive manner to meet the growing needs of UG & PG students of all SAUs/agricultural colleges. It broadly covers the various aspects of soil quality and health, distribution of waste / degraded lands and problematic soils in India, acid soils, saltaffected soils, soils with physical constraints, quality of irrigation water, saline agriculture, remote sensing & GIS in diagnosis and management of problematic soils, multi-purpose tree (MPT) species and bioremediation of problematic soils through MPTs, land capability classification and land suitability classification and problematic soils under different agroecosystems, including chapter-wise question bank and category-wise comprehensive question bank with answers. The interpretation of subject matter in each chapter of this book has been made carefully and systematically giving due emphasis on the requirements of agr.
