Sustainable Agriculture and New Biotechnologies
CRC Press (Verlag)
9780367382575 (ISBN)
The use of new biotechnologies to help in the creation of more sustainable agricultural practices, including methods in molecular biology, genetic engineering, and the new emerging technologies, such as metabolomics, metagenomics, nutrigenomics, and ionomics
The path to reach the goal of the global sustainable agricultural and food production systems in a world of limited natural resources and growing environmental degradation
Principles that regulate the new agricultural and food production systems including breeding programs for more sustainable crops, soil management, and environment preservation
It is clear that biotechnological approaches will become increasingly important in the future and that a shift from industrial to a sustainable agriculture will be necessary. While many books tend to make "a quick and easy link" between these two different worlds, Sustainable Agriculture and New Biotechnologies describes exactly how omics can contribute to greater food productivity and security, and agricultural sustainability in the future.
