Drought-resistant Soils

The conference was organised to identify, describe, discuss and promote actions that will assist farmers to improve water-use efficiency in rainfed agriculture and drought-proof their systems. The publication contains an analytical sumary of the conference discussions, abstracts of papers submitted during the conference and discussion papers prepared to introduce the different topics. The full document is included on the accompanying CD-ROM.

Soil Physical Analysis

The illustrations in this book are created by “Team Educohack”. "Soil Physical Analysis: Tools and Techniques" delves into the essential aspects of soil, including its texture, structure, color, consistency, density, air, and temperature. We explore various tests conducted on soil for gravitational checks and moisture content analysis, highlighting their importance. As a crucial natural resource, soil provides nutrients to plants and animals, which in turn supply us with fiber, shelter, and food. Our book discusses the best management practices for soil conservation to protect our environment. We provide detailed explanations of tests used to assess soil physical properties, soil temperature, indicators of soil temperature, soil-borne diseases, and the causes and preventive methods of soil degradation, such as erosion. This comprehensive guide is perfect for anyone interested in understanding soil science and its practical applications.
