About the Book

Overview
Soil is more than just a natural body beneath our feet—it is the basis of terrestrial life and a vital resource for agriculture and ecological sustainability. Understanding the science of soil is essential for enhancing agricultural productivity, maintaining environmental quality, and ensuring food security. This book, Fundamentals of Soil Science, has been developed in accordance with the guidelines of the ICAR 6th Deans’ Committee Report to serve as a standard resource for
undergraduate education in agricultural and allied sciences. The primary objective of this book is to impart foundational knowledge on soil genesis and the basic physical, chemical, and biological properties of soil, with a focus on their relevance to plant growth and agricultural practices. The content has been structured to meet the academic requirements while fostering a practical understanding of soil behavior and management.
