Green Sustainable Agriculture and Farming Practices

This new volume covers conceptual frameworks for understanding the functional construct of agro-food
innovation and farming. It presents a selection of topics on regenerative agriculture and farming that lead
to practices that can be useful on both organic and conventional farms. The volume first looks at ecotechnologies
in the agrifood industry, such as the production of bacterial metabolites against
phytopathogenic fungi as an alternative in food preservation, how food affects gut microbiota, the role of
probiotic rhizobacteria in agriculture, and nanocellulose-based composites in the food industry. The
authors also explore eco-technologies for water reuse in agricultural irrigation, eco-friendly farming
practices to ensure sustainability, and ways to limit agricultural soil and air pollution in farming systems.
