It is a challenging task to predict the severe consequences of soil health degradation on plants, animals, and human beings. Soil erosion, degradation, nutrient depletion, pollution, organic matter decline, and inadequate management practices have caused Plant nutrient disorders due to imbalances, interactions, deficiencies, or toxicities of one or more plant nutrients. The quality of irrigation water and environmental stress also significantly impact this process. The current book provides insight into the reasons for the occurrence of such nutrient disorders, methodologies to monitor soil, plant, water, and environment, and ways to diagnose the problem through analytical and instrumental techniques. The widespread occurrence of secondary and micronutrient deficiencies in soils has resulted in low uptake of these nutrient ions by plants, which adversely affects human and animal health. Continuous cropping without efficient soil and water use has led to poor crop performance and low yields in many areas.
