  Challenging Plants: Soil Science - Practicals

  In association with Reckitt Benckiser

  The nature of soil particles (inorganic and organic) and of soil water affects plant growth and, in particular, the availability of nutrients essential for the growth of quality crops in high yield. An understanding of the media in which plants grow helps scientists to exploit their potential.

  Challenging Plants: Fertilisers - Practicals

  In association with Reckitt Benckiser

  Nutrients essential for plant growth are obtained naturally from soil or other growing media. However, supplies become depleted and fertilisers are needed to increase the availability of nutrients to plants. An understanding of chemical changes is used to making fertilisers, often designed to meet specific requirements such as particular nutrient ...
