From the Preface: "Judicious and efficient crop nutrition is possible only when functions in plants of different nutrients, their amounts and forms present in soil and reactions that they undergo in soils are well understood and the management practices are fine tuned to the crop plant needs. In most Indian and even foreign universities the knowledge on these three aspects is provided by three different departments, namely, plant physiology, soil science and agronomy and a large number of students don not take courses in all these three departments. This publication attempts to fill this gap and attempts to provide information on basic principles and their application in relation to crop nutrition. This book will be useful to the students, researchers and teachers in agronomy, soil science, plant physiology, microbiology, horticulture, vegetable science, floriculture, microbiology and agricultural extension and others interested in crop production.".…

Contents Preface 1 Introduction 2 Crop nutrient classification and function 3 The soil crop nutrient medium 4 Nutrient uptakes 5 Assimilation 6 Crop water relation 7 Crop growth and production 8 Fertilisers and organic manures 9 Essential elements Bibliography IndexCrop nutrition is a difficult subject to understand completely partially because of the variation between different plants and even between different species or individuals of a given clone The right proportion of nutrition at right time is pre requisite for satisfactory crop growth and production The use of soil tests can help to determine the status of plant available nutrients to develop fertilizer recommendations to achieve optimum crop production The profit potential for farmers depends on producing enough crop per acre to keep production costs below the selling price Efficient application of the correct types and amounts of fertilizers for the supply of the nutrients is an indispensable part of achieving profitable yields 272 pp. tables (illustrator).…
