Plant nutrients are found in a relatively thin layer of soil materials
that covers all of the continents of the entire world. These plant
nutrients provide the necessary food, clothing, and shelter for human
existence. As the population of the world increases, the plant nutrients
in desert environments become more and more important for the survival
of mankind. Plant Nutrients in Desert Environments is a general
information book for both professionals and laymen. The common plant
nutrients present in deserts are identified, and detailed instructions
are given on how to effectively utilize them in commercial agriculture,
home gardening, home landscaping, for disturbed land reclamation and for
recreational purposes. Outstanding photographs illustrate the topics.
