Taking a sustainable approach, this volume explores the various soil management techniques. It begins with an overview of the elementary concepts of soil management and then delves into new research and novel soil management tools and techniques.Topics include:• Clays as a critical component in sustainable agriculture with respect to carbon sequestration in conjunction with its interaction with soil enzymes• The potential utilization of microbes to mitigate crop stress• Resource conservation technologies and prospective carbon management strategies• The use of smart tools for monitoring soils• Effective nutrient management approaches• Nanotechnological interventions for soil management• Techniques for the remediation of soils contaminated by metals and pesticides
