We are expected to face the challenges of land use by 2050 because population will reach 9 billion while agricultural productivity losses are expected due to overuse of lands. How can we feed the next generations in a manner that respects our finite natural resources? Managing our resources in a sustainable way have only begun for selected crops. Much remains to be done to increase food yield. Cropping practices capable of sustainable production need to be elaborated, especially in fragile ecosystems. Typical applications will include the improvement and use of genetic resources; crop management and diversification; diffusion of improved varieties; development of cropping systems; sustainable cropping systems for areas prone to environmental degradation; use of agro-ecological data for crop production forecasting; and networks for regional coordination, and data exchange. The impetus behind this book is to bring attention to a cropping system that bears direct relevance to sustainable agriculture and food secu | 出版日期 | Book 2018 | 关键词 | Agronomy; Economy; Sustainable Production; Food Security; Genetic Engineering | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-77776-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-08536-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-77776-4 | copyright | Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018 |
