Download or read book Smart Farming Technologies to Attain Food and Nutrition Security written by P. Parvatha Reddy and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-02-06 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of Rainbow Revolution is an integrated development of crop cultivation, horticulture, forestry, fishery, poultry, animal husbandry, and food processing industry. The concept of Smart Farming Technologies in agriculture is a step towards sustainability. India has already achieved resilience in agriculture, including the horticultural sector, through effective agricultural technology generation and is now on the threshold of a “rainbow revolution” that will ensure both household nutrition security and prosperity for its people. This book will be of immense value to the scientific community involved in teaching, research and extension activities related to strategies for achieving Rainbow Revolution for enhancing farmers’ income, food, and nutrition security. The book can also serve as a very useful reference for policymakers and practicing farmers.

Download or read book Chickpea Crop Wild Relatives for Enhancing Genetic Gains written by Mohar Singh and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2020-02-29 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chickpea: Crop Wild Relatives for Enhancing Genetic Gains explores aspects related to critical analysis on factors responsible for narrow genetic base of chickpea productions including domestication bottleneck, the level of diversity present in different cultivated and wild species, the uniqueness and usefulness of potential gene sources available and maintained in production systems across the globe, the level of genetic erosion both at landrace and species level over time and space etc. Despite considerable international investment in conventional breeding, production of chickpea has not yet been significantly improved beyond that achieved through its normal single domestication event and high self-pollination rate. Total annual pulse production of ~12 million tons (FAO 2016) is far below actual potential. Susceptibility to both biotic and abiotic stresses have created a production level bottleneck whose solution possibly lies in the use of crop wild relatives and other genetic traits cultivated by tailoring novel germplasm. Presenting options for widening the genetic base of chickpea cultivars by introgression of diverse genes available in distantly related wild Cicer taxa, thus expanding the genetic base and maximize genetic gains from the selection, it is necessary to accumulate other complimentary alleles from CWRs. This review will focus on present status of gene pool and species distribution, germplasm conservation, characterization and evaluation, problems associated with crop production, sources of target traits available in wild species, status of trait introgression in synthesizing new gene pool of chickpea along with progress made in chickpea genomics. An edited book with contributions from leading scientists, this information will guide and inform chickpea breeders, PGR researchers and crop biologists across the world. - Presents both conventional and emerging techniques - Provides insights into gene pyramiding as cytogenic manipulations - Includes case studies highlighting the impact of improving chickpea production

Book excerpt: Agricultural Sustainability is a combination of technologies and implementation processes that are used to manage information-related with maintenance of equilibrium condition in the scenario of productivity level in the field of agriculture. Sustainable agriculture is not just about food security, the protection of crops and its cultivation or while it is being processed; it is also about the protection of environment with economic equity and profitability. This is a composite field involving agricultural science, engineering, database and soil-based crop management, user training, and policy issues. A common objective of work in this field is to protect the environment and defend degeneration systems by ensuring resource availability, its integrity, authentication and confidentiality so that the right action can be accessed with the right information and direction at the right time. The book contains 33 chapters pertaining to sections on (i) water resource management (ii) irrigation water management (iii) soil resource management (iv) sustainability in agriculture and (v) crop management and productivity with the content contributed by eminent researchers throughout the world. The book will come as an important contribution to the latest agricultural technologies in bridging up the gap of scientific information to the researchers and policy makers in different relevant field of specialization.
