The soils of nepal
The soils of nepal[electronic resource] /edited by Roshan Babu Ojha, Dinesh Panday. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2021. - xviii, 161 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - World soils book series,2211-1263. - World soils book series..

Introduction -- History of Soil Research -- Climate -- Geology and Physiography -- Land Use and Land Cover -- Soil Formation -- Soil Types, Soil Classification and Mapping -- Soil Properties -- Soil Fertility and Nutrient Management -- Land Degradation -- Soils and Human -- Soil Issues and Future Perspective.

This book publishes consolidated information on the soils of Nepal from all possible sources. The Survey Department, Government of Nepal, conducted two national scale soil survey projects to classify soils of Nepal (Land Resource Mapping Project ended in 1985, and National Land Use Planning Project ended in 2021) Both projects adopted the United States Department of Agriculture system of soil classification. Besides, National Soil Science Research Center (previously known as Soil Science Division) of Nepal Agricultural Research Council and Soil Management Directorate, Department of Agriculture, also worked on soils of Nepal. To date, the information on the soils of Nepal is not published in well-documented form but has been reported widely as gray literature (project report or government report) or peer-review articles. 'The Soils of Nepal' is a part of 'World Soils Book Series' which constitutes twelve chapters--covering broad aspects such as soil research history, climate, geology, soil classification and mapping, and soil fertility. Furthermore, information about soil properties and relation between soil constituents of the dominant soil types of Nepal and their scope of use in the context of land use are described. This book also tries to simplify the intricate relationship among soil, culture, and people. Each chapter contains a comprehensive, richly illustrated, and up-to-date overview of the soils of Nepal. We believe it fulfils a quest for a global audience including students, educators, extension workers, and soil scientists, who are interested to know the young soils of Nepal.
