Principles of sustainable soil management in agroecosystems
Soil degradation from intensive conventional agriculture has degraded the finite soil base for food security. This volume describes the basic laws of soil management to enhance ecosystem conservation while restoring degraded soils and promoting sustainable use. Chapters cover human dimensions and soil degradation; soil as a nutrient bank; climate change and degradation; soil renewal and sustainability; soil resilience; nutrient cycling; and soils and society
