Keeping these things in mind the entire book has been divided into sixteen chapters dealing with various analytical methods that most commonly used in soil sciences covering soil, plant, water, pesticides, manures, fertilizers and radioisotopes and its application used soil and plant studies are arranged in such a way that it would help the readers to understand the basic concepts and techniques of the analytical methods up to date. Also glossary of soil science terms viz., general, soil health and soil ecology provided as a ready reference for the readers. Further, this book provided twelve annexure which contains sufficient details as a ready reconer for the laboratory analytics of soil, plant, water, manures, fertilizers, pesticides and special reference to radioisotope laboratory and safety measures.
