Sobre IBD

Sustainable crop production came as a revolution in the industry of crop production and agriculture. This field has emerged as a way of questioning the current practices of crop production which are proving hazardous to the ecology and detrimental to human health. The goal of this text is to strive for environmentally healthy and economically feasible alternative practices. This book contains some path-breaking studies in the field of sustainable crop production which will not only offer a critical insight into theory but will also highlight the recent developments in the field with its applications. In this book, using case studies and examples, constant effort has been made to make the understanding of the difficult concepts of sustainable crop production as easy and informative as possible, for the readers.
