study of soil in relation to plant growth is called edaphology
Edaphology is the study of soil in relation to soil-dependent uses.
Agricultural soil science (agrology) is the knowledge of the soil in its relation to the plant and agricultural use. It has only to do with arable land suitable for agriculture, and in a way of speaking it is a kind of liturgy of the soil, for in order to grow usable plants upon it, it must first be artificially prepared.
In the 20th century, the term edaphology was driven out of soil science and used when addressing edaphic problems in other disciplines. ...edaphic problems remained and they were solved both within basic soil science and adjoined sciences.
The restoration of the edaphic branch in soil science is necessary for addressing theoretical and especially practical problems in sustainable forest and environmental management under the rapidly changing environment and developing economy.
The use Edaphology by Lyon and Buckman is interpreted by Dr. Buckman (personal communication) in the rather restricted sense of ‘the soil in its relation to plants’ rather than with a pure soil science meaning. Their interpretation is essentially like that given to Fallou to the word ’Agrology’
Fallou is quoted as having stated that ‘Natural Soil Science or Pedology is a description the nature of soil, no matter whether it has or has not some bearing to vegetation or to its use for industrial purposes.’ He used ‘Agrology’ as a knowledge of soil in its relationship to vegetation and agricultural use.

The study of soils as naturally occurring bodies on the Earth’s surface is called pedology (in contrast to edaphology, which is the study of soils and their relations with plants, particularly crops).
