Nutrition in the Control of Inflammation: Emerging Roles for the Microbiome and Epigenome is a comprehensive guide that delves into the intricate relationship between diet and inflammation to regulate inflammatory diseases. Divided into five insightful sections, this book provides an introduction to the microbiome and epigenome in nutrition, exploring the impact of diet, lifestyle, and the microbiome on the development of inflammatory diseases. With a focus on nutrition and the epigenome in metabolic and cardiovascular diseases, the chapters tackle crucial topics such as histone modifications, DNA methylation, and non-coding RNAs in disease progression. Addressing health disparities in diet, epigenetics, and gut microbes, this book is a valuable resource for nutrition researchers, nutritionists, postgraduate students, and professionals in related fields. From the multifactorial microbial networks shaping aging to practical applications for diet and lifestyle improvements, this book offers practical insights for enhancing microbial and epigenetic health.
Hyperautomation in Precision Agriculture: Advancements and Opportunities for Sustainable Farming is the first book to focus on the integration of multiple techniques and technologies to create an ecosystem sustaining approach that doesn’t compromise soil health or environmental safety as it increases crop yield. The book highlights the integration of state-of-the-art tools and working models to address the various challenges in the field of agriculture. It also identifies and discusses the potential and challenges of hyperautomation in sustainable agriculture with respect to efficiency improvement and human enhancement of automated operations.Hyperautomation is a true digital transformation in sustainable agriculture utilizing advanced techniques such as robotic process automation (RPA), digital process automation (DPA), unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), controlled-environment agriculture (CEA), remote sensing, internet of things (IoT), crop modeling, precision farming, sustainable yield, image analysis, data fusion, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and deep learning (DL).
Horse Pasture Management, Second Edition provides updated coverage on strategies for managing behavior, grouping, environments and feeding needs of grazing horses. Sections cover the structure, function and identification of forages, continuing into nutritional value of pasture plants. Management of soil, the function of a pasture ecosystem and management of plants in a pasture is covered next, followed by forage yield determination, horse grazing behavior, feed choices of horses, management of grazing horses, and how to calculate how many horses should be grazing relative to land size. Advantages of grazing more than one species of animal are described. Management of hay and silage are included since year-round grazing is not possible on many horse farms. Several chapters deal with interactions of a horse farm with the environment, including climate and weather and other living things. The book also covers strategies for managing manure, erosion, and water quality. It is ideal for researchers, scientists and students involved in animal science, specifically equine studies. Agriculturists, equine managers and veterinarians will also find this book useful.
Natural Preservatives for Food helps to identify various natural preservatives for applications in the food industry, including different areas like meat, fish, dairy, cereals, etc. The book's chapters deal with different sources of natural preservatives such as plant, microbial and animal based, while also covering chemistry, encapsulation and delivery, and the safety and regulatory status of natural preservatives. This book act as a comprehensive resource for food scientists, researchers and scholars, but is ideal for personnel working in various food industries.
