Soil, plant, water and fertilizers are the major ingredients of interest in agriculture system. Analysis of soil, plant and water as natural resources is of utmost importance in regard to conservation strategies. The fertilizers are invariably used for supplying the nutrients to growing plants. They need characterization for their balanced and judicious use.
