Series: Advances in Agroecology
Description
Since sustainable agriculture is an important element of the effort to make human activities compatible with the demands of the earth's ecosystem, it is crucial to understand the approaches to ecological agriculture to utilize the planet's resources wisely. This book addresses agroecology within its modern context, how to help our environment, to examine availability of natural resources, and to reach the goal of global sustainable ecological, agricultural, and food production systems. The text examines regulating principles for agroecological systems, including crop production, soilmanagement, and environment preservation.
