Course Goal / Objective
The aim of this course is to give general information about soil and crop management on sustainable agriculture.
Course Content
Heavy chemical application, irrigation, soil plough and other inputs are influenced on soil fertility. It is very important to know relationship between agricultural input and soil fertility levels. In a long term it has been shown chemical application have a negative effect on soil biological fertility. Since soil microorganisms are affected consequently soil fertility and quality decreased. As once soil fertility decreased plant health is decreased than chemical fertilizer and others are re-applied. Also effect of soil and crop management under long-term mono-cultural agricultural practices on soil quality parameters will be discussed.
