Soil science is the scientific study of soil, including its formation, classification, and mapping. This discipline investigates the physical, biological, chemical, and fertility properties of various soil types found on the Earth's surface, with a particular focus on soil use and management. The two primary branches of soil science are pedology and edaphology. Pedology examines the formation, morphology, chemistry, and classification of soil, while edaphology focuses on the interactions between soil and living organisms, especially plants. Key areas of study within soil science include soil genesis, soil morphology, soil microbiology, soil mechanics, and agricultural soil science. This book attempts to understand the multiple branches that fall under the discipline of soil science and how such concepts have practical applications. It provides comprehensive insights into the field. It will serve as a valuable source of reference for those interested in this field.
