Fertilizers and Crops: Or The Science and Practice of Plant Feeding is a non-fiction book written by Lucius Lincoln Van Slyke and originally published in 1912. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the science behind plant nutrition and the practical methods for fertilizing crops. The book is divided into several sections, each covering a different aspect of plant feeding. The first section provides an introduction to the topic, discussing the importance of plant nutrition and the history of fertilizer use. The second section focuses on the chemical elements that are essential for plant growth, including nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. The third section of the book covers the different types of fertilizers that are commonly used, including organic and inorganic fertilizers. The fourth section provides guidance on how to determine the fertilizer needs of different crops, taking into account factors such as soil type, climate, and crop type. The final section of the book discusses the practical aspects of fertilizing crops, including methods for applying fertilizers and strategies for maximizing crop yields. Throughout the book, Van Slyke emphasizes the importance of balancing the nutrient needs of crops with the need to protect the environment and maintain soil health. Overall, Fertilizers and Crops is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the science and practice of plant feeding. Its clear and concise explanations make it accessible to both professionals and laypeople alike, and its practical advice is still relevant today, over a century after its initial publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
