The farmer and the gardener give their own simple names to soils and speak of light soil, heavy soil, rich soil, hungry soil, clay soil or sandy soil. For each of these and similar terms there is a scientific appellation, and were it only possible for all who cultivate the soil to take their degree in agricultural science, chemistry and botany, the exclusive use of scientific names and terms would prove to be an immense advantage. This book will be very useful to all the students and research scholars of agricultural sciences, horticultural sciences, forestry and its allied subjects, besides serving as a ready reference to the professors and also to the farmers.
