From the preface: "This handbook offers a comprehensive coverage on important agricultural terms that is useful to students in curricula, such as agronomy, plant breeding, horticulture, soil science as well as to non-agricultural students of plant science, ecology, natural resources and environmental studies.
"It is a common feature that the same terminology is defined differently by different authors and thus, the best possible definitions were selected or developed and updated. While compiling the authors have drawn some matter from popular journals, books, report, dictionaries/glossaries of terminology, etc., and is indebted to the editors, publishers and authors of these publications."
