A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Concept of soil fertility

The concept of soil fertility centres on the soil’s ability to supply essential nutrients in available forms and proper balance for plant growth. For examinations, you must clearly distinguish soil fertility from soil productivity, understand the factors that control fertility, and explain how fertility can be maintained or improved.
