SKU:9789383305971

Soil conservation is a crucial topic not only for agricultural engineers, but also for students pursuing degrees in agriculture, forestry, geography, geology, and ecology, as well as anyone else concerned with soil erosion. The newly revised edition of the Norman Hudson standard book provides updated information on recent advancements in the field, including a greater emphasis on sound land use and farming practices, the importance of involving farmers at all stages of the process, and the need for cost-effective methods with low labor requirements. This edition also demonstrates how research, theory, and practice can be applied in developing countries such as India. The text presents the engineering approach to soil conservation in a clear, common-sense manner, reflecting the course in soil sciences and agronomy taught in universities across India. As a result, this teaching text will be useful to all countries where soil conservation is a significant factor in agricultural development.
