Publisher's Synopsis
Forests are areas of land that have a dense tree cover. They are the most common terrestrial ecosystem on Earth and are found all over the world. Trees and forests are vital to food production and nutrition. Management of soil fertility and forest nutrition is essential for ensuring the productivity of planted or natural forests. Forest management involves evaluating the land and the nutrient cycling process in order to ensure that the forest soil has sufficient nutrients and organic matter. This evaluation helps in revealing whether or not there are any deficiencies in the soil. Thereafter, fertilizers might be used for ensuring nitrogen fixation and enhancing nutrients in the soil. This book unfolds the different aspects of forest nutrition management. It aims to equip students and experts with the advanced topics and upcoming concepts in this area of forest management.
