Aims & Scopeโœฆ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on soil science, encompassing soil fertility, health, and management. Research investigates the impact of agricultural practices, such as intercropping, tillage, and nutrient application, on crop productivity and soil properties. Studies also explore soil remediation techniques, including the use of organic amendments and bioremediation for contaminated soils, as well as the role of soil properties in erosion and water management. The journal addresses soil contamination by heavy metals and other pollutants, and the effects on plant uptake and human health. Additionally, it examines soil carbon dynamics, microbial communities, and the influence of various land-use practices and amendments like biochar and vermicompost on soil quality and ecosystem services.
