A Handbook of Soil-Plant-Water-Fertilizer and Manure Analysis

The current publication provides a comprehensive overview of the commonly utilized analytical techniques for soil, water, fertilizers, and manures. It is primarily intended for use in teaching and research in soil chemistry, soil fertility, fertilizer production, and water quality. As plant growth and development are intimately connected to these fields, all analytical procedures for inorganic plant constituents are included in this book. What sets this work apart is that it comprises all proven and widely-used methods, along with the underlying principles and appropriate interpretations for determining the nutrient content in plants and soil, as well as the quality of fertilizers and water, which are crucial for plant growth.
