Full Description
Agricultural Biostimulants for Mitigation of Salt, Drought and Heat Stress provides the latest information on the potential for sustainable, enhanced resilience of agricultural crops to adverse conditions. This volume in the Biostimulant and Protective Biochemical Agents series focuses on high impact challenges and opportunities. Biostimulants are a promising and effective approach for achieving sustainable agriculture, often regarded as a renewable source of plant nutrients, improve crop production and soil health. During the last decade, there has been a growing interest in the potential use of various biostimulants such as plant growth-promoting fungi, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, seaweed extracts, and organic amendments, etc. to increase nutrient use efficiency, and/or tolerance to abiotic environmental stress in plants. Agricultural Biostimulants for Mitigation of Salt, Drought and Heat Stress includes coverage of bacteria, algae, PGR, PGPB, biochar and other core approaches. It highlights how specific biostimulants may protect or enhance agricultural plant health and is the first comprehensive reference resource to focus exclusively on the role of biostimulants in protecting agricultural crop yield against these major environmental challenges.
