| book description |
The constantly growing world population scenario is escalating the pressure on crop productivity. The excessive use of chemical pesticides and fertilizers, however, leads to the deterioration of the quality of soil and food crop products. This new volume, Microbial Fertilizer Technology for Sustainable Crop Production, addresses those concerns by focusing on improving soil health through sustainable practices. The use of microbial biofertilizers is a promising substitute to traditional chemical pesticides and fertilizers, providing a cost-effective practice for a sustainable environment and eco-friendly agriculture that uses soil microbes to improve the solubility of soil nutrients, leading to enhanced fertility and better crop productivity. This new book takes an in-depth look at utilizing the potential soil microorganisms of diverse genera to overcome issues instigated by the overuse of chemical pesticides and fertilizers. The book discusses the formulation, preparation, production, and applications of microbial biofertilizers for agricultural, forestry, industrial, and environmental sectors. It also provides extensive information and case studies on emerging plant growth promoters such as arbuscular mycorrhiza, rhizobia, endophytes, and cyanobacteria. With in-depth coverage and strategic emphasis, this volume will be immensely useful and informative for microbiologists, biotechnologists, plant biologists, bioengineers, industrialists, and agronomists dealing with production and assembly methods for microbial biofertilizers. It will also be an essential guide for agriculture development executives, trainees in microbial biofertilizer industry, teachers, research scholars, and postgraduate students who are interested in understanding the science behind sustainable biofertilizer production, agroecology, and soil chemistry.
