This book will address the major subsoil physical and chemical
constraints and their implications to crop production; Plant growth
is often restricted by adverse physical and chemical properties of
subsoils yet these limitations are not revealed by testing surface
soils and hence their significance in crop management is often
overlooked. The major constraints can be physical or chemical.
Physical limitations such as poor/nil subsoil structure, sandy
subsoils that do not provide adequate water or gravelly subsoils
and, etc. On the other hand, chemical constraints include
acidity/alkalinity, high extractable Al or Mn, low nutrient
availability, salts, boron toxicity and pyritic subsoils. Some of
these constraints are inherent properties of the soil profile while
others are induced by crop and soil management practices. This aim
of this book is to define the constraints and discuss amelioration
practices and benefits for crop production. This book will be of
interest to readers involved with agriculture and soil sciences in
laboratory, applied or classroom settings.
