Problematic Soil and Their Management: Under Graduate course B.Sc.(Hons.) Agriculture (1+1)

Problematic Soils and Their Management is a comprehensive and practice-oriented guide that addresses one of the most critical challenges in sustainable agriculture-soil degradation and productivity loss due to adverse soil conditions. The book systematically explains the nature, classification, causes, and constraints of major problematic soils, including saline, sodic, acidic, calcareous, waterlogged, eroded, and polluted soils, with special reference to Indian agro-climatic conditions.Designed to bridge the gap between theory and field application, this book presents scientifically sound and farmer-friendly management strategies such as chemical amendments, organic interventions, biological approaches, crop and varietal selection, and integrated soil management practices. Emphasis is given to soil health restoration, efficient nutrient use, climate resilience, and sustainable crop production.The text is enriched with practical notes, field examples, diagrams, and management packages that make it highly useful for students of agriculture, soil science, and environmental science, as well as extension workers, researchers, and progressive farmers.
