Abstract
Soil is defined as a mixture of weathering products of rocks (sand, silt, and clay) and humus (or soil organic matter) derived from plant or animal. World soils are divided into 12 groups and their distribution is not uniform. Soil degradation includes soil acidification in humid region, salinization in arid regions, and loss of soil organic matter in both regions. Minimum tillage or optimized fallow systems can minimize loss of soil organic matter and improve soil fertility. Understanding of complex soil system is required for food supply and human survival.
