Course description

This course examines how soils can be managed sustainably to provide the ecosystem services that we rely upon for our survival, whilst simultaneously ensuring that these soils are not degraded for future generations. In particular, we will examine conservation agriculture, sustainable irrigation practices, soil nutrients and organic matter dynamics, soil degradation and soil health issues. In addition, we will also examine how soils determine sustainable land use and give consideration to impacts of soil management on the broader environment.
