This book encompasses a holistic approach towards sustainable agricultural production technologies that result in maximum profit for the farming community. Also, it considers practices that care for natural resource bases and leave behind minimal environmental footprints. To keep prepared for climate change and natural disasters, appropriate contingency measures to tackle these unwanted situations are discussed.
The book offers comprehensive coverage of the most essential topics, including:
· Modern technologies to new concepts and innovations such as 3D farming, Integrated System of Rice Intensification (ISRI), hydroponics, rooftop farming, water budgeting, etc.
· Modern tools such as IT for supporting IFS and environmental aspects related to greenhouse gas (GHG) emission.
· Information on organic farming covers all its aspects, present situation, market-related issues, and future options.
· In-situ input generation procedures discussed in the book are integral to recycling and their effective reuse.
· Region-specific IFS models based on soil, climate, and farmers' requirements for different agroclimatic situations.
· IFS management aspects including water harvesting, conservation, increased productivity, and drainage are lucidly presented.
· Latest information on the socio-economic factors, impacts, government orientations, policy framework towards agriculture & environmental aspects, and the future road map to make IFS a success.
The book will serve as a ready reference for academicians, researchers, students, progressive farmers and policymakers to make agriculture more resilient, sustainable and ecofriendly.
