Soils
Good fanning means proper use of natural conditions, land, crops and fertilizers. One of the most important is soil. Soil plays a vital role in the life of the world and mankind. Soils develop under the influences of climate, vegetation, time, the nature of the parent material and the culture. It is a natural resource that supports plant life. Soil is a mixture of particles of rock, organic materials, living forms, air and water. Soil fertility means moisture conditions, plant food and soil structure. They may be regulated by proper management of the soil. Soil management is the science of tillage operations, cropping practices, using fertilizers and other treatments for the production of crops. Good soil management results in better yields. Fertilizers are added to the soil to meet the plant food needs. To grow well plants must be supplied with macro and microelements. Phosphorus, nitrogen, potassium, calcium, magnesium and sulpher are found in large quantities and are called macroelements or primary elements. Such elements as boron, copper, zinc, manganese and molybdenum are found in small quantities and are called microelements or trace elements. Macro and microelements are essential elements of the soil. Essential elements are highly important for crop yields. for livestock and human health. That's why it is necessary to make soil tests to know what elements are deficient in the soil and determine the rate of fertilizers to be applied. Thus the most important thing for the farmer is to get the land into good conditions and to keep it that way.
