Subject is focused on the understanding of behaviour of nutrients in the soil, their uptake by plants and the relationship within the environment. Suitable nutrition of plants plays very important role in the crop development, the formation of yield and the quality of agricultural products. Classes are mostly focused on definition of soil fertility and factors playing an important role in soil fertility formation and on the cycles of macro and micro elements in soils affecting their mobility immobilisation and losses. The importance of soil fertility for the plant availability of nutrients as well as disorders in element uptake are discussed too. Methods of soil tests of main parameters of macronutrients and techniques for recommendation of their rates applied in organic and inorganic fertilizers are practised in laboratories and seminars including comprehensive project of nutrient management.
