Ecological Basis of Agroforestry
ISBN: 9781420043273 / Angielski / Twarda / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Faced with the growing problems of climate change, ecosystem degradation, declining agricultural productivity, and uncertain food security, modern agricultural scientists look for potential relief in an ancient practice. Agroforestry, if properly designed, can mitigate greenhouse effects, maintain ecosystem health and biodiversity, provide food security, and reduce poverty. Poorly implemented agroforestry, however, can not only exacerbate existing problems, but also contribute in its own right to the overall negative effects of our depleted and failing ecosystems. With a diminishing margin...

Allelopathy in Agroecosystems
ISBN: 9781560220909 / Angielski / Twarda / 447 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This comprehensive treatise provides an in-depth understanding of allelopathy--the mysterious, complex biochemical interactions among plants and microbes. This little-understood phenomenon can lead to changes in nutrient dynamics, vegetation structure, and species diversity. Allelopathy in Agroecosystems explains how this interaction can be used as an environmentally safe method of weed and pest management. The fascinating original research presented here offers incalculable potential for rescuing farmed-out land, increasing crop yields, and cutting back on expensive soil additives.
