Beskrivning

This book showcases the work of young and dedicated scientists, educators, and researchers who are committed to promoting modern agricultural principles and practices across India. The authors have attempted to cover a wide range of topics within the field of agriculture, including genetic improvement of crop plants, modern plant breeding techniques, seed science, groundwater resource management, integrated farming systems, horticulture, sustainable agriculture through biological control, underutilized fruit plants, health-promoting foods, enzymes in food processing, bioinformatics, and molecular diagnostics. Despite the comprehensive nature of the content, there are still many aspects of agriculture that have not been covered due to the vastness of the subject matter. The primary objective of this book is to provide a glimpse into the important areas that can help to enhance food and nutritional security in a sustainable manner.
