Transgenic crops the main products of agricultural biotechnology are increasingly becoming a dominant feature of the agricultural landscapes. The proponents of biotechnology argue that carefully planned introduction of these crops could reduce or even eliminate the enormous crop losses due to weeds insect pests and pathogens. they argue that the use of such crops will have added beneficial effects on the environment by significantly reducing the use of agrochemicals. However ecological theory predicts that as long as transgenic crops follow closely the pesticide paradigm prevalent in modern agriculture such biotechnological products will do nothing but reinforce the pesticide treadmill in agroecosystems thus legitimising the concerns that many environmentalists and some scientists have expressed regarding the possible environmental risks of genetically engineered organisms. This book provides a comprehensive ecological assessment of crop biotechnology. The potential benefits and risk of genetically modified crops are addressed in detail. The book is an unique concise and up to date resource which offer students and researchers an innovative and valuable presentation of the subject. 264 pp.…

Bibliography. Index. Recent progress in explaining the science behind biological processes has significantly enhanced our ability to exploit them for the benefit of mankind and the environment. The evolution of plant breeding is a classic example of how improved biological understanding has been adapted to provide more effective methods of meeting the demands of a changing world. Modern biotechnology is the latest stage in the development of plant breeding technology. The tools of the biotechnologist increased the speed and precision of plant breeding techniques and widened the choice of characters for selection. Modern biotechnology allows crop improvement to take place at the level of individual genes. This book provides an overview of the application of modern biotechnology in plant breeding. It will certainly meets with interests and needs of up to date information of plant breeders may they be advanced students practitioners teachers or researchers. 262 pp.…

Plant growth regulators and biotechnology. Bibliography. Index. Synthetic plant growth regulators are inorganic substances made by physical chemistry that affect plant growth. Some mimic the natural growth regulators in structure and action. Many are completely different to natural regulators both in structure and action. They are applied for specific purposes to affect specific plant responses. Achieving the best results with PGRs is a combination of art and science science tempered with a lot of trial and error and a good understanding of plant growth and development. Several new plant growth regulators have come on the market for use in plants in recent years. These plant growth regulators have given plant growers a new opportunity to influence plant growth to their advantage. The structure functions advantage and disadvantages of synthetic plant growth regulators elaborately described in this book. Students teachers and researchers in the field of plant science agriculture and biotechnology will find this book of utmost use. 274 pp.…

Our concern about environmental safety and sustainability of land productivity is increasing among the scientists environmentalists and higher officials. With the increasing population it is also becoming clear that food security for the millions will not be possible unless the available resources are efficiently utilized for increasing the productivity. The strategy adopted during the green revolution cannot be valid anymore under the present conditions. A new strategy of living with the nature and nurturing it of sustainable high productivity should be evolved. Though the use of chemical inputs cannot be altogether avoided but their use in agriculture has to be minimized or rationalized. So organic farming shows us the way to effectively use the available natural resources for the benefit of the mankind. But unfortunately there are a lot of misunderstanding. A compilation of the available information with upgrading technology has been felt need of students research workers agriculturists environmentalists and scientists in the field of agriculture. In this handbook almost all the aspects related to organic farming are covered with a balanced approach. The author demonstrates the newness of the organic concept for readers. This will help readers to discover easily the philosophical and technical differences between organic and conventional farming system. 280 pp.…

Bibliography. Index. Increasing population levels on a near stabilized agricultural land places a heavy burden on the soil source particularly its nutrient supplying power. Chemical fertilizers have come to increase the output of agricultural product and to meet ever increasing demand of human population. The problem is further compounded in several areas due to excessive use of chemical fertilizers which resulted into considerable deterioration in the quality of indigenous soil. Intensive agriculture with the use of chemical fertilizers in large amount has no doubt result resulted in manifold increase in the productivity of farm commodities but the adverse effect of these chemicals are clearly visible on soil structure microflora quality of water food and fodder. Organic farming has emerged as the only answer to bring sustainability to agriculture and environment. Organic farming is a farming integration of biological cultural and natural inputs including integrated diseases and pest management practices. Integrated plant nutrition can be best if it is practised on scientific facts local conditions and microeconomics. We hope this publication will create a balanced objective and science based appreciation for meeting the nutrient needs of agriculture. This book has been written for agricultural planners soil scientists biologists microbiologists students teachers fertilizer industry personnel research and development units organisation engaged in biofertilizer production training centres all those interested in the efficient use and recycling of wastes resource management and sustainable farming. 398 pp.…
