The term soil quality (SQ) encompasses both a soil's productive and environmental capabilities. Strategies or frameworks that help farmers manage SQ are vital as sole emphasis on production can have negative environmental consequences and exclusive focus on environmental considerations could endanger supplies of food or fiber. Recent efforts in the USA

Environmental quality is a complex concept. Defining one component of it, soil quality, is therefore usually attempted using indicators that represent, with differing levels of approximation, particular constituents, processes or conditions. In this chapter, we review briefly the ideal characteristics of a soil quality indicator and then outline some ...

Soil properties indicative for quality
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 1983Even within the small territory of The Netherlands, soil properties show a considerable diversity. A number of soil types, such as clay soil, peat soil, and sandy soil can be distinguished with several transitions and mixtures in between. All these soil types can be characterized by their physical and chemical properties. As such features as structure,

Soil quality assessment of remediated soils
Korean Ecological Engineering Society, 2022Since the use of the remediated soil is undetermined, the quality of the soil should be appropriately evaluated according to its future use. In this study, we developed a soil quality assessment method that can be applied to soils after the remediation process.

The unprecedented crop yields achieved by the green revolution depended on heavy usage of fertilizers and agrochemicals, the introduction of responsive crop varieties and application of mechanical power. The non-renewable resources from outside the farming system are no longer cheap, unlooked-for ecological imbalances have arisen as the soil has become

A soil quality index for reclaimed mine soils
Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 2013Abstract The quality of soils found in mines is low if they do not receive any reclamation treatment; yet, to the authors' knowledge, there are still no equations to evaluate the quality of metal-contaminated mine soils after the application of the most widely used reclamation treatments (planting ...

Soil invertebrates as bioindicators of urban soil quality
Environmental Pollution, 2012This study aimed at relating the abundance and diversity of invertebrate communities of urban soils to chemical and physical soil characteristics and to identify the taxa most sensitive or tolerant to soil stressors. The invertebrate community of five urban soils in Naples, Italy, was sampled.

Soil Quality and Soil Sustainability
2019Soil is an important and complex part of our environment. The agro-ecosystem is made up of many interacting components with multiple goals. Soil quality is one important part of sustainable agro-ecosystem management, analogous to water and air quality.
