    Beskrivning

    This book covers the topic of current agriculture in the era of climate change challenges and how it can be transformed to a new system that is soil-centric to ensure food and soil security, yet be an effective potential solution for climate change.  The main purpose of writing this book is to address the current agriculture system that is economically, socially, and environmentally unsustainable given its contribution to the current climate change crises through the extensive use of fossil fuel, chemicals, and synthetic fertilizers, which has led to a 15% contribution of total GHG emissions globally. This book highlights the connection between climate challenges, food security, soil security, and ecosystem services in one concise, one place resource reference.  This book also provides readers a comprehensive review of published research and science in one place, highlighting the connection between major challenges driven by climate change, such as, food security, soil health, climate change and the role of regenerative and climate-smart agriculture technology systems in providing solutions.

    Mer om författaren

    Mahdi M. Al-Kaisi is a professor of soil physics (soil management/environment), Department of Agronomy, Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa. He received his MS and PhD in soil Physics from North Dakota State University. Professor Al-Kaisi has been on the faculty at Iowa State University since 2000, where his research focuses on the effects of cropping and tillage systems, crop residue management, cover crops, and nitrogen application on soil carbon dynamics and sequestration, greenhouse gas emissions, and other ecosystem services. In addition, he studies the interaction effects of agricultural practices and environmental factors such as, weather variability and landscape spatial variability on soil organic carbon sequestration and systems sustainability and productivity. The focus of his research is to develop sustainable management practices that improve soil health, productivity, and environmental services. As a result of his research, he has developed field calculators to assess soil management practices impacts, such as, tillage systems, crop residue, and crop rotation effects on soil sustainability. Also, he developed soil carbon index for soils in Iowa. Dr. Al-Kaisi is a Fellow of the American Society of Agronomy, the Soil Science Society of American, and Soil and Water Conservation Society.
