商品描述

This book discusses the role of microbes in agriculture for plant attributes, soil fertility, and bio-remediation, which aid in sustainable agriculture. Nowadays, due to increase in human population, it is essential to increase food productivity in the near future, but exhaustive non-sustainable agricultural practices such as the usage of agrochemicals threaten food security, the economy, and the environment globally. Soil deterioration is the most serious environmental threat to food production, resulting in poverty and hunger in developing countries. As a result, the global community has faced challenges regarding the development of ecologically sound, efficient, and long-term alternative options to meet rising food requirements. Therefore, to contribute to food security, the advancement of sustainable and innovative modern agriculture aimed at addressing environmental, economic, and social challenges connected with present intense non-sustainable agriculture practices is required. As a result, beneficial microbial inoculants will be widely used in the development of new strategies to increase sustainable food production. Bioinoculant application helps to provide nutrients that directly support soil health and sustainable food production. Hence, this book offers the role of microbial inoculants for better agronomical performance for sustainable advancement in agriculture and also pays attention to soil health improvement for extensive period benefits. The book will be highly recommended for agriculture microbiologists, agronomists, plant pathologists, and related areas.


商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書討論了微生物在農業中對植物特性、土壤肥力和生物修復的作用,這有助於可持續農業的發展。如今,由於人口增加,未來必須提高食物生產力,但過度使用不可持續的農業實踐,如農藥的使用,威脅著全球的食品安全、經濟和環境。土壤退化是對食品生產最嚴重的環境威脅,導致發展中國家的貧困和飢餓。因此,全球社會面臨著發展生態友好、高效和長期替代方案以滿足不斷增長的食品需求的挑戰。因此,為了促進食品安全,需要推進可持續和創新的現代農業,以應對與目前強烈的不可持續農業實踐相關的環境、經濟和社會挑戰。因此,有益的微生物接種劑將廣泛應用於開發新的策略,以增加可持續食品生產。生物接種劑的應用有助於提供直接支持土壤健康和可持續食品生產的營養素。因此,本書介紹了微生物接種劑在農業可持續發展中對農業性能的改善作用,並關注土壤健康改善的長期效益。本書將強烈推薦給農業微生物學家、農學家、植物病理學家和相關領域的人士。
