This book provides a comprehensive understanding of the nature and causes of land degradation, as well as methods for evaluating, characterizing, and controlling it to maintain land productivity. It covers a broad range of land degradation topics in a concise and straightforward manner, with fifteen chapters that address the physical, chemical, and biological processes that lead to land degradation in various agro-ecosystems. The book delves into the various forms of physical land degradation, such as soil compression, compaction, soil crusting, and slow and highly permeable soils. Additionally, it explores the various forms of chemical land degradation, including iron and aluminum toxicity, soil acidity, acid sulfate soils, soil salinity, and alkalinity.
