DOWNLOAD EBOOK‘Fundamentals of Agriculture’ for competitive exams in agriculture discipline contains 6 chapters in volume I and 7 chapters in volume II covering all disciplines of agriculture. The chapters included General Agriculture, Agricultural Climatology, Genetics, Plant Breeding & Biotechnology, Plant Physiology & Biochemistry, Seed Technology and Agronomy in volume I and Soil Science & Agricultural Microbiology, Horticulture, Entomology, Plant Pathology, Agriculture Extension, Agriculture Economics and Agriculture Statistics in Volume II have given due importance and whole syllabus is covered as per ICAR/SAUs syllabus and guidelines. Each chapters contains very short types of descriptive questions. Recent precise information and development in the field of agriculture have been incorporated in the book. For the overall benefit of the student in the discipline of agriculture we have made this book exclusively in such a way that it hands out not only solutions but also detailed explanations. Though these detailed and thorough explanation, student can learn the concepts which will enhance their thinking and learning ability. Thus this book may be useful not only to students but also teachers, researchers, extension workers and development officers for reference and easy answering of many complicated questions of all related disciplines of agriculture. Fundamentals of Agriculture covers the course contents of competitive examinations like IAS, IFS, PCS, ARS, Banking services, B.Sc./M.Sc./Ph.D. (Ag) admission, states and national levels of different competitions in agriculture. The entire book is prepared in most simple, clear, talking language, comprehensive and short descriptive types of questions so that the concepts could be easily understand by the readers in short times.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKUnder ongoing climate change, natural and cultivated habitats of major food crops are being continuously disturbed. Such condition accelerates to impose stress effects like abiotic and biotic stressors. Drought, salinity, flood, cold, heat, heavy metals, metalloids, oxidants, irradiation etc. are important abiotic stresses; and diseases and infections caused by plant pathogens viz. fungal agents, bacteria and viruses are major biotic stresses. As a result, these harsh environments affect crop productivity and its biology in multiple complex paradigms. As stresses become the limiting factors for agricultural productivity and exert detrimental role on growth and yield of the crops, scientists and researchers are challenged to maintain global food security for a rising world population. This two-volume work highlights the fast-moving agricultural research on crop improvement through the stress mitigation strategies, with specific focuses on crop biology and their response to climatic instabilities. Together with "Climate Resilient Agriculture, Vol 1: Crop Responses and Agroecological Perspectives", it covers a wide range of topics under environmental challenges, agronomy and agriculture processes, and biotechnological approaches, uniquely suitable for scientists, researchers and students working in the fields of agriculture, plant science, environmental biology and biotechnology.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis Open Access book presents feedback from the ‘Territorial Agroecological Transition in Action’- TATA-BOX research project, which was devoted to these specific issues. The multidisciplinary and multi-organisation research team steered a four-year action-research process in two territories of France. It also presents: i) the key dimensions to be considered when dealing with agroecological transition: diversity of agriculture models, management of uncertainties, polycentric governance, autonomies, and role of actors’ networks; ii) an operational and original participatory process and associated boundary tools to support local stakeholders in shifting from a shared diagnosis to a shared action plan for transition, and in so doing developing mutual understanding and involvement; iii) an analysis of the main effects of the methodology on research organisation and on stakeholders’ development and application; iv) critical analysis and foresights on the main outcomes of TATA-BOX, provided by external researchers.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book showcases the power of economic principles to explain and predict issues and current events in the food, agricultural, agribusiness, international trade, natural resources and other sectors. The result is an agricultural economics textbook that provides students and instructors with a clear, up-to-date, and straightforward approach to learning how a market-based economy functions, and how to use simple economic principles for improved decision making. While the primary focus of the book is on microeconomic aspects, agricultural economics has expanded over recent decades to include issues of macroeconomics, international trade, agribusiness, environmental economics, natural resources, and international development. Hence, these topics are also provided with significant coverage.
