Soil Health Management and Sustainable Agriculture

Soil health is presented as an integrative property that reflects the capacity of soil to respond to agricultural intervention, so that it continues to support both the agricultural production and the provision of other ecosystem services. The management goal for a healthy agricultural soil is to supply the nutrients needed for optimal plant growth in the right quantity and at the right time while minimizing nutrient losses to the surrounding environment. This book covers current understanding of soil structure and dynamics which form the foundation for effective soil management and will be of immense interest to those involved with agricultural microbiology, including students, instructors, and researchers.
