DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Changing land-use practices and the role of soil biological diversity has been a major focus of soil science research over the past couple of decades—a trend that is likely to continue. The information presented in this book points to a holistic approach to soil management. The first part looks at the land use effects on soil carbon storage, and considers a range of factors including carbon sequestration in soils. The second part of the book presents research investigating the interactions between soil properties, plant species, and the soil biota.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This publication contains the proceedings of an international seminar held in May 2004 at the Univesity of Teramo (Italy). It discusses the role and importance of integrated soil and water management in orchards (vineyards and olive orchards) and it is intended to highlight the better use of resources. This publication will contribute to raising awareness of the possibilities for the better use of rainwater and improved management of soils with reduced erosion. It will be useful to anyone concerned with maintaining and improving the quality of soil including farmers, researchers, advisory staff, consultants and technical decision-makers.
