Book excerpt: From climate change to farming systems to genetic modification of organisms, Crop Physiology, Second Edition provides a practical tool for understanding the relationships and challenges of successful cropping. With a focus on genetic improvement and agronomy, this book addresses the challenges of environmentally sound production of bulk and quality food, fodder, fiber, and energy which are of ongoing international concern. The second edition of Crop Physiology continues to provide a unique analysis of these topics while reflecting important changes and advances in the relevant science and implementation systems. Contemporary agriculture confronts the challenge of increasing demand in terms of quantitative and qualitative production targets. These targets have to be achieved against the background of soil and water scarcity, worldwide and regional shifts in the patterns of land use driven by both climate change and the need to develop crop-based sources of energy, and the environmental and social aspects of agricultural sustainability. - Provides a view of crop physiology as an active source of methods, theories, ideas, and tools for application in genetic improvement and agronomy - Written by leading scientists from around the world - Combines environment-specific cropping systems and general principles of crop science to appeal to advanced students, and scientists in agriculture-related disciplines, from molecular sciences to natural resources management

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Seedtime and Harvest: Cereals, Flax, Cotton, and Tobacco; Dates of Planting and Harvesting East of Meridians 102-104, in the United States Unaffected by the rapid expansion of areas under cultivation and the rapidity with which crops Of surplus producing countries are exchanged, the dependence of man and beast upon seedtime and harvest continues unceasingly. As popularly applied, these terms are descriptive of local phases of agriculture, and yet it is common knowledge that sowing and reaping are going on in different parts of the earth all months of the year. From a world viewpoint, these Operations are continuous and unending. Mankind is somewhere busy all seasons at one or the other. Coincident with the westward trend -of population in the United States marvelous changes have taken place in agriculture. Wide spread and profound, they have occurred almost unawares and the magnitude of their influence is realized only in retrospect. The increase in facilities for transportation, the readiness with which crops of surplus producing countries are exchanged, the develop ment of the sciences of agriculture and their coordination with other sciences, and the invention of labor-saving agricultural machinery are perhaps the most profound of these changes. Nations remote from one another now freely exchange their agricultural products, scientists strive to make practical in agriculture the results of lab oratory tests, and invention is steadily increasing the effectiveness of human labor and reducing the cost of production. The value to agriculture of the science of meteorology, of a knowl edge of how properly to prepare the seed bed, how to select pure bred, viable seed, and of the advantage gained by the adoption of suitable cultural methods are freely admitted and popular interest in these Subjects is increasing by leaps and bounds, but informa tion concerning the progress of planting and harvesting, those great waves of agricultural activity which annually sweep over the land, is limited and far from comprehensive.
