Emerging Technologies in Agricultural Engineering de Megh R. Goyal

Emerging Technologies in Agricultural Engineering: Innovations in Agricultural & Biological Engineering

Editat de Megh R. Goyal
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 aug 2017
This book covers an array of issues on emerging agricultural engineering and technology, featuring new research and studies. The volume is broken into three parts: emerging technologies, energy management in agriculture, and management of natural resources, in which particular attention is paid to water management, a necessary consideration for successful crop production, especially in water-scarce regions.
Topics include:
  • alleviating drainage congestion
  • solar energy for agriculture
  • anaerobic digestion by inoculation with compost
  • self-propelled inter-cultivators
  • agrobiodiversity
  • watershed development and management
This volume offers academia, engineers, technologists, students, and others from different disciplines information to gain knowledge on the breadth and depth of this multifaceted field of agricultural engineering. There is an urgent need to explore and investigate the current shortcomings and challenges of the current innovations and challenges.

Recenzii

"Agricultural engineers are indispensable for energy and food security. It is our ethical duty to educate the public on food security."
—Miguel A Muñoz, PhD, Ex-President of University of Puerto Rico; and Professor/ Soil Scientist
"Emerging technologies have matured into reliable and practical applications over the past couple of decades. The usage of emerging technologies, especially in the energy and natural resources field, continues to increase in the world, and this book series will serve as a reference for engineer and practitioners worldwide."
—Felix B. Reinders, Professional Engineer Agricultural Research Council- Institute for Agricultural Engineering, South Africa
