ISBN: 9788184246902 / Angielski / Miękka / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The success of industrial agriculture and the green revolution in recent decades has been often masked by significant externalities, affecting natural resources and human health as well as agriculture itself. Environmental and health problems associated with agriculture have been increasingly well documented, but it is only recently that the scale of the costs has attracted the attention of planners and scientists. Increasing consciousness about conservation of environment as well as of health hazards caused by agrochemicals has brought a major shift in consumer preference towards food...

Biosalinity in Action: Bioproduction with Saline Water
ISBN: 9789401087599 / Angielski / Miękka / 369 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Historically, scientists and laymen have regarded salinity as a hazar dous, detrimental phenomenon. This negative view was a principal reason for the lack of agricultural development of most arid and semi arid zones of the world where the major sources of water for biological production are saline. The late Hugo Boyko was probably the first scientist in recent times to challenge this commonly held, pessimistic view of salinity. His research in Israel indicated that many plants can be irrigated with saline water, even at seawater strength, if they are in sandy soil - a technique that could...

Muck and Mind: Encountering Biodynamic Agriculture: An Alchemical Journey
ISBN: 9781584201816 / Angielski / Miękka / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A healthy culture implies a healthy agriculture.
Beyond the technology and use of machines, today rapidly developing technology (i.e., "genetic engineering") extends into the realm of life, which we can, and therefore do, manipulate for the ostensibly noble purpose of feeding the people of the world. Life, however, is not mechanical. To begin to comprehend life, something is desperately needed--a fundamental shift in our approach, one that seeks to comprehend the qualities of the living organism as a whole, and in relation to its whole...

Seed Inoculation, Coating and Precision Pelleting: Science, Technology and Practical Applications
ISBN: 9781498716437 / Angielski / Twarda / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Seed inoculation is the practice of effectively introducing a high number of nitrogen-fixing bacteria (Rhizobium or Bradyrhizobium) on the surface of legume seeds prior to planting. The bacteria penetrates the root, resulting in the formation of root nodules that fix nitrogen from the air, and make it readily available to the plant. This book describes the need, the development and the use of rhizobia, and how this process may be reproduced successfully around the world, especially in underdeveloped agricultural countries.
