Soil Conditioners

This publication deals with the broad spectrum of chemical soil conditioners from experimental and practical use standpoints. Subjects covered include the use of conditioners on soils for agricultural production, industrial sites, pollution control, and water management. Also included are comprehensive discussions on soil physical and chemical properties in relation to various phenomena associated with water infiltration, storage, and evaporation. The properties and modes of action of the major groups of conditioners are treated in an authoritative manner by outstanding scientists specializing in this area of soil and water science. A thread of the economic aspects appears in several chapters as the authors comment on many conditioners that appear to be reasonable in an economy that continues to be faced with increasing production costs; in a world plagued by shrinking land and water resources for a multiplicity of uses.
