 FAO/AGL - Electronic Conference on Assessment of Soil Nutrient Depletion and Requirements
Though by no means it is exhaustive, it attempts to provide a brief gleaning in the prevalent approaches and methodologies and is intended to be a starting point for discussions, and receiving further contributions.
A desk-study with the objective in view, would not only be a time and resource intensive process, but might not be able to capture some very useful experiences.
To provide an open platform that will enable a wide range of institutions/agencies, including national and international bodies; governmental and non-governmental organizations, research institutes/universities and development organizations to share information and exchange ideas, views and experiences on approach and methodology for assessment of soil nutrient depletion and requirements.

 Nutrient Cycling
Composting is a decomposition process similar to the natural organic matter breakdown that occurs in soil.
These beneficial cultural practices have multiple effects on the soil fertility factors described above, which makes it important to integrate their use and examine their effects on the complete soil-crop system rather than just a single component of that system.
Even seemingly benign byproducts should be analyzed and field-tested on a trial basis before using them on a large acreage.
