Soil science is a specialized branch of agriculture which associated with the different areas of soil pedology, soil physics, soil chemistry, soil biology, soil fertility, plant nutrition etc. It is, therefore, worthwhile to understand the nature and behavior of natural resources for sustainable agricultural production. Fundamentals of Soil Science assembles and summatizes pertinent available information for the students of agriculture in general and soil science in particular. This text book is a comprehensive more and will meet the growing need of soil science of graduate and post graduate students at university level agricultural education. This book covers the course contents of competitive examinations like IAS, IFS, PCS, ARS, banking services, B.Sc./M.Sc./Ph D. (Ag) admission, states and national levels of different competitive examinations in agriculture. The entire book is prepared in most simple, clear, talking language, comprehensive and short descriptive type of questions so that the concept could be easily understand by the readers in short times.
