This volume aims to raise awareness and stimulate research on how agricultural management could help to mitigate climate change impacts, and focuses on technical progressions and innovations in climate change mitigation and adaptation.
Dieses Buch führt in die angewandte Statistik für Agrarwissenschaften ein und unterstützt bei der Forschung in der Pflanzen- und Tierproduktion und im Feldversuchswesen.
This edited book focuses on agricultural and food waste biomass valorization in various fields such as energy and environment and the development of several other value-added products.
The book represents a multidisciplinary approach to understanding soil-landscape-vegetation relationships and, specifically, the ecophysiology of plant communities developing on sandy soils of very low fertility that are subject to seasonal flooding.
This book utilises a new theoretical approach to understand the dynamics of the peasantry, and peasant resistance, in relation to capitalism, state, class, and imperialism in the global South.
To meet the food requirements of the growing population worldwide, the agricultural domain is being technologically empowered to produce more with fewer resources and investments.
This book explores how metals like cadmium, mercury, lead, aluminium, manganese, and chromium can harm our health, whether through short-term or long-term exposure.
Originally published in 1995, after decades of steady growth, this book was written at a time when the world's food supply was no longer keeping up with population increases.
A growing number of animal ethicists defend new omnivorism-the view that it's permissible, if not obligatory, to consume certain kinds of animal flesh and products.
