Book Description
Are they human, biological, extraterrestrial? The future of our food, our waterways, our climate, and our civilization depend upon soil. How we conserve, or repair damage to this essential re- source is one of the most important commitments of our generation! This author leads us on a 30-year journey of discovery working with those closest to the land as they tackle significant challenges of soil protection, restoration, and sustainability.

Book Description
This report records how agricultural land is used and managed in Canada using responses from the 1991 census of agriculture; produces a study to serve as a baseline for all subsequent monitoring of land management practices through the census; and provides information for environmental studies of soil and water. An overview of land management describes applications of nutrients, herbicides, and pesticides and methods used to control soil erosion. Summaries of land practices are given by region (British Columbia, the Prairies, Central Canada, and Atlantic Canada), and cover manure, fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides, irrigation, erosion control, and tillage methods.

Book Description
During the last twenty years, mutations within agricultural systems in France and Europe have brought on a spectacular worsening of soil erosion and degradation. This volume, contributed to by scientists from 25 countries, discusses how this risk can be evaluated, and which solutions should be adopted without radically disturbing the socio-economic orientation of major agricultural regions. It is an excellent starting point for the development of new research themes, and will be of great value to soil and environmental scientists, and to all those involved in land irrigation and drainage.
