Full Description
The book Improving Productivity of Drylands by Sustainable Resource Utilization and Management addresses various aspects related to the utilization and management of resources in dryland agriculture. The book covers topics such as natural resource management, biodiversity conservation, crop and livestock management, energy, and technology transfer, as well as socio-economic issues.
The content of the book is divided into 30 chapters, each contributed by subject specialists, and covers a range of subjects, including climate-resilient agriculture, soil and water conservation, soil fertility appraisal, recycling of organic wastes, management strategies for livestock production, intercropping in agri-horticultural systems, agro-morphological evaluation of crops, developing genotypes for vegetable cultivation, crop diversification, farming systems, improved forage production, variability and heritability of grasses, weed management practices, economics of arable crop production, and energy conservation strategies through greenhouses.
Overall, the book aims to present a comprehensive collection of information on recently developed technologies and strategies for sustainable dryland management, making it a valuable resource for professionals, researchers, scholars, and students involved in agricultural research in drylands.
