Soft cover. Zustand: New. 1st Edition. Weather and climate is a natural resource which is considered as a basic input in agricultural planning. It affects all the agricultural activities directly or indirectly. Agrometeorology is primarily concerned with the interactions among meteorological, hydrological and pedological factors that influence production systems in agriculture and allied sectors like horticulture, animal husbandry, fishery, forestry, etc. Thus the role of an agrometeorologist is to define all these interactions, to correlate physical environments with biological responses and apply the relevant meteorological skills to help farmers for exploiting weather conditions and improve agricultural production both in quality and quantity. In this backdrop, agrometeorology has been recommended as a core subject in the curriculum of B. Sc. (Agriculture), B. Sc. (Horticulture) and B. Sc. (Forestry) courses of the agricultural universities. Keeping this in view, this textbook has been written for the undergraduate students. …

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Contents: 1. Farming Systems and Their Types. 2. Farming System Components and Their Maintenance. 3. Cropping Systems and Their Classification. 4. Efficiency Evaluation of Cropping Systems. 5. Sustainable Agriculture. 6. Low External Input and Sustainable Agriculture. 7. Conservation Agriculture. 8. Integrated Farming Systems. The modern agriculture has raised several ecological issues, and put a question mark on the sustainability of various agricultural practices with high input use. Since resources on the earth are limited, there is a need to utilise these resources most judiciously and efficiently to harmonise ecology with prosperity. Now the prime focus of farmers, researchers and policymakers goes to sustainable development through the sustainable farming systems. In this context, a subject on 'Farming System and Sustainable Agriculture' has been recommended by the ICAR for the students of agriculture and allied sciences. The present book is written as per the latest syllabus on the subject, which would be useful to the undergraduate students. This book will be helpful to the students preparing for various competitive examinations. The common people who observe farming and its development with an interest would also find it worth reading. …
