It is crucial for the scientific farming community to possess a solid comprehension of the fundamentals of agronomy in order to boost crop production while concurrently ensuring the sustainability of the system. In India, a significant challenge is the low crop productivity, despite the population growing at a rapid pace. Thus, it is essential to grasp the fundamentals of agronomy in order to create a favorable environment for crop growth and development, as well as to plan, program, and implement measures for the efficient use of land, labor, capital, and natural resources.

The book offers a distinct advantage by providing a comprehensive coverage of topics and well-considered explanations of various fundamental aspects of agronomy.
