Agriculture has seen dramatic changes since the time of its inception. Starting with the domestication of wild plants to small-scale traditional farming and then large-scale, chemical-intensive agriculture. It is at a crossroads once again, putting a huge amount of pressure on available natural resources like soil, water and biodiversity which is bound to increase with the ever-growing human population. This book helps readers understand the challenges associated with these demographic changes.
- Redefines the relationship between microorganisms and agricultural sustainability in view of the latest technologies and advancements
- Documents recent microbiological advancements in agricultural research and discusses challenges and opportunities in the biofertilizers market
- Identifies challenges and opportunities for scaling up biofertilizers technology
- Discusses recent trends and innovations in the biotechnology market and economy
