The present book covers the effect of major environmental problems on crop production and how to cope with these issues for sustainable agriculture and improvements of crops. .The world’s population is predicted to hit 9.6 Billion by 2050, up from today’s total of nearly 7.3 Billion, and with it food demand is predicted to increase substantially. The post-war ‘second agricultural revolution’ in developed countries, and the ‘green revolution’ in developing nations in the mid- 1960s converted agricultural practices and elevated crop yields spectacularly, but the outcome is levelling off and will not meet projected demand. Simultaneously, crop production is affected by many other factors, including industrial pollution, overuse of fertilizers and insecticides, heavy metal and radiation stresses etc. It has been noted that many pests are becoming resistant to insecticides. Estimates vary, but around 25% of crops can be lost to pests and di | 出版日期 | Book 2015 | 关键词 | Abiotic stresses; Biotic stresses; Food Crops Security; Global environmental change; Sustainable Agronom | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-23162-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-79454-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-23162-4 | copyright | Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2015 |
