Sustainable Organic Farming

Intensive farming techniques to increase yield have considerable impact on the environment. Sustainable organic farming is an attempt to curb such harmful effects by introducing microbial fertilizers instead of synthetic chemicals and limiting the use of pesticides and plant growth regulators, which help reduce the burden caused due to intensive farming techniques. This book attempts to assist those interested in this field with the help of researches and case-studies by experts from around the globe on topics such as transgenic crops in sustainable development, genetic modification as a route for delivery of sustainable crop protection, ecosystems and environment, etc. This book will prove to be an essential guide for both academicians and those who wish to pursue this discipline further.
