Introduction to Soil Science Lecture Notes
These are comprehensive lecture notes from UBC that give foundational understanding on soil science. The document accounts for topics such as the components, classification, biology, and nutrient dynamics of soil. For that reason, it is ideal study material for students starting their time learning in soil studies. The material bases its study on the significance of soil management practices and the impacts of such practices on agricultural productivity. This resource allows learners through clear explanations and examples to gain knowledge which is paramount about what the role of soil is in supporting plant life and a larger ecosystem.

Practical Manual Agriculture Chemistry
It is a comprehensive manual useful for students and practitioners in agricultural chemistry mainly dealing with techniques for soil analysis. The whole process elaborated goes from collecting and processing soil samples up to analyzing soil profiles and characteristics, from determining soil density, moisture content, and maximum water holding capacity to hydraulic conductivity and assessment of soil texture. The manual also touches on some critical measurements: soil temperature, electrical conductivity (EC), pH, and cation exchange capacity. These contain detailed methods and practical applications that provide necessary skills in the effective analysis of soils, thereby adequately practicing agriculture and crop management.

Manures, Fertilizers and Agricultural Chemicals
This PDF is a comprehensive text that the department of soil science and agricultural chemistry at S.V. Agricultural College has developed on the different inputs necessary to improve agricultural productivity. The document is preceded by an introduction to bulky organic manures, where the amount lost at the time of collection and storage of farm yard manure (FYM) is reported. It deals with the preparation of composts, green manures, and terms of various organic wastes-terms like sewage and sludge. The book covers concentrated organic manures, biogas plants, and processes of manufacture of commercial fertilizers - both of nitrogenous, phosphatic, and potassic type. It also gives a rundown on mixed fertilizers and amendments, and secondary and micronutrient fertilizers. An essential feature is the Fertilizer Control Order, and thus this article becomes a fundamental reference point for understanding the role of fertilizers and manures in sustainable agriculture.
