Advances in Organic Farming: Agronomic Soil Management Practices

Editat de Vijay Singh Meena, Sunita Kumari Meena, Amitava Rakshit, Johnson Stanley, Srinivasa Rao
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 aug 2021
Advances in Organic Farming: Agronomic Soil Management Practices focuses on the integrated interactions between soil-plant-microbe-environment elements in a functioning ecosystem. It explains sustainable nutrient management under organic farming and agriculture, with chapters focusing on the role of nutrient management in sustaining global ecosystems, the remediation of polluted soils, conservation practices, degradation of pollutants, biofertilizers and biopesticides, critical biogeochemical cycles, potential responses for current and impending environmental change, and other critical factors. Organic farming is both challenging and exciting, as its practice of “feeding the soil, not the plant” provides opportunity to better understand why some growing methods are preferred over others.
In the simplest terms, organic growing is based on maintaining a living soil with a diverse population of micro and macro soil organisms. Organic matter (OM) is maintained in the soil through the addition of compost, animal manure, green manures and the avoidance of excess mechanization.


  • Presents a comprehensive overview of recent advances and new developments in the field OF research within a relevant theoretical framework
  • Highlights the scope of the inexpensive and improved management practices
  • Focuses on the role of nutrient management in sustaining the ecosystems
