Publisher's Synopsis
Soil testing and plant analyses have proven to be invaluable tools in the diagnosing of nutritional deficiencies and problems related to plant growth. Each advance in our basic understanding of plant physiology and soil chemistry, and each advance in instrumentation leads to improvements in methodology and interpretation. The Soil Science Society of America has always felt a keen responsibility to ensure that the best and most accurate methods were generally available and accessible to those who need and use them. This volume represents a significant advance from previous editions and reflects the updated analytical methods available, a better understanding of plant nutrition, and a need to use fertilizers and soil amendments even more efficiently and safely.
