Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature of fertilizers and their use as a way to increase crop yields. Initially published as a series of articles for farmers in the early 20th century, this revised edition includes an additional chapter detailing methods of mixing and applying fertilizers at home. Written primarily for a Canadian audience, the author explains how fertilizers entered the farming lexicon as a permanent fixture at the time they did, acknowledging that previously many had condemned their use. The book covers a range of topics including the elements of soil fertility and the three main ingredients that are routinely depleted through regular cropping. The author examines different sources of nitrogen, potash, and phosphoric acid. The author also offers guidance on the specific needs of various crops and soils, describing how soil type, climate, and other factors will impact the ideal combination of ingredients for a particular field. Practical advice for preparing and applying fertilizer is offered, and the book concludes by emphasizing the importance of soil conservation.
