quality can be defined as the overall activity of a soil within an ecosystem that preserves biological activity and environmental quality‚ thus promoting plant and animal health (Doran et al. 1994). Alterations in soil properties and processes can affect functions that soils perform in the environment‚ which in turn influence patterns of plant growth (Ahuja 2003).
