| Course description |
|
The purpose of this lecture is to provide students with the knowledge needed to understand 1) the soil function, 2) soil nutrient dynamics in based on the mechanisms, and 3) ecology and management in horticultural crop production To discuss the concrete soil resource management and cultivation techniques for sustainable agriculture, we will lecture 1) soil function as a basic ecosystem services, 2) characteristics of nutrient dynamics in soil ecosystems, and 3) effects of cultivation environment on horticultural crops, especially focused on fruit trees. |
| Expected Learning |
|
Students who successfully complete this course will be able to 1. Explain/discussion the soil function and nutrient dynamics in order to achieve the sustainable land managements, 2. Explain/discussion the techniques of horticultural crop production. Corresponding criteria in the Diploma Policy: See the Curriculum maps.
