Advances in Organic Farming: Agronomic Soil Management Practices
focuses on the integrated interactions between
soil-plant-microbe-environment elements in a functioning ecosystem.
It explains sustainable nutrient management under organic farming
and agriculture, with chapters focusing on the role of nutrient
management in sustaining global ecosystems, the remediation of
polluted soils, conservation practices, degradation of pollutants,
biofertilizers and biopesticides, critical biogeochemical cycles,
potential responses for current and impending environmental change,
and other critical factors. Organic farming is both challenging and
exciting, as its practice of "feeding the soil, not the plant"
provides opportunity to better understand why some growing methods
are preferred over others. In the simplest terms, organic growing
is based on maintaining a living soil with a diverse population of
micro and macro soil organisms. Organic matter (OM) is maintained
in the soil through the addition of compost, animal manure, green
manures and the avoidance of excess mechanization.
