Alfisol, the dominant soil order in semi arid tropics of the world,
are the most degraded owing to several natural and anthropogenic
causes. Long-term studies were undertaken to improve and assess the
quality of these soils. This book is the outcome of various
experiences gained during the study and comprises of concepts of
soil quality, indicators to assess soil quality, methodologies for
estimation of various soil quality indicators and soil quality
assessment, past research experiences on the impact of soil and
nutrient management practices on soil quality and soil quality
indices, case studies on soil quality assessment under long term
management practices, future thrusts and research needs. As the
modern concepts of viewing soil quality are different from those
which were perceived three decades earlier, authors trust that this
publication would be of immense use to all categories of
stakeholders associated with agriculture viz., researchers,
students, NGOs and officials of State Agricultural Departments in
general and land care and soil managers in particular across the
arid and semi-arid Alfisol and associated soil regions of the
world.
