It is the dominant sector that contributes 18% of the gross domestic product. Thus, agriculture is the foundation of the Indian economy. The maximum share of Indian exports is also from the agriculture sector. As the population of the country is increasing trem- dously, approximately at the rate of 19 million every year over the existing popu- tion of more than 1 billion (approximately 1. 18 billion), the food grain production must necessarily be increased. This can be done by increasing crop production to match the population growth rate of 2. 2% per annum, which is expected to stabilize at 1. 53 billion around 2050. There is no doubt that the Green Revolution in India during the late 1960s brought self-sufficiency in food grain production, mainly through the increase in rice and wheat crop yields – the two main crops of the country which play an important role from food security point of view. However, the excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides, and the neglect of organic manures for these crops, has resulted in the deterioration of | 出版日期 | Book 2009 | 关键词 | AgroMicro; Inorganics; Organics; Soil fertility; Soils; crops; evolution; wheat | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4020-9875-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-90-481-8216-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4020-9875-8 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2009 |
