Due to the growth of the world population, food production has increased exponentially as have the agricultural production systems used to produce food. This book, Sustainable Agricultural Production Systems: Traditional and Modern Perspectives, presents the traditional and modern forms of agricultural production, with an emphasis on sustainable practices.
The volume discusses seed improvement, crop protection, phytosanitary aspects, protected agriculture, plant factories, hydroponic systems, mechanization, bioremediation, reduction of herbicide use, and characterization of bioactive compounds. Traditional ways and new trends are shown, as well as prospects for new agriculture production systems. This resource aims to be a general compendium of agricultural production systems and future uses, including new applications-from plant factory to extraction of compounds for industrial use.
Some methods discussed include in vitro propagation, greenhouse hydroponics, biostimulants from algae, cartography models of vulnerable environmental interactions, nuclear and plastic engineering, eco-friendly extraction processes, and more. Other topics include effects of elicitors on productivity and quality, the use of secondary metabolites in plant defense mechanisms, and others.
