This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many farmers typically regard wheat as a “low input” crop and expect low yields and low returns. Conversely, some farmers intensively manage wheat with many inputs and expect high yields and returns. The objective of this research was to identify inputs that improve wheat grain yield, straw yield, and economic return and reduce deoxynivalenol (DON) concentration in the grain. An incomplete factorial, omission trial was established at two locations in Ohio (South Charleston and Custar) during the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 growing seasons. Treatments consisted of intensive management (IM) which received all inputs, a traditional management (TM), and the individual addition or removal each input from the TM or IM, respectively. The inputs were a high seeding rate, a high N rate, a split application of N, a spring sulfur application, a fungicide application at Feekes 9, and a fungicide application at Feekes 10.5.1. Intensive management increased grain yield at three of the site-years during this study by an average of 0.83 Mg ha-1. At the South Charleston location, in general, the use of a fungicide at either timing proved to be important for protecting yield. The addition of a fungicide at Feekes 10.5.1 to the TM significantly protected yield both years by an average of 0.66 Mg ha-1 and the removal of this fungicide from the IM significantly decreased yield by 0.63 Mg ha-1 in 2021. Additionally, at the same location the addition of a fungicide at Feekes 9 to the TM and the removal of a fungicide from the IM significantly changed yield in 2020 by 0.81 and -0.71 Mg ha-1. At Custar, only one treatment significantly changed yield in either year. In 2021, the removal of split N from the IM significantly reduced grain yield by 0.44 Mg ha-1. Straw yield was not consistently affected by any treatment in this study. DON concentration was significantly reduced by the IM at South Charleston both years due to the addition of a fungicide at Feekes 10.5.1. Intensive management did not increase partial economic returns at any site-year during this study and individual treatment affects were inconsistent. These results suggest that although IM has can improve grain yield and quality it fails to do so economically at the prices used in this study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soil Health and Intensification of Agroecosystems examines the climate, environmental, and human effects on agroecosystems and how the existing paradigms must be revised in order to establish sustainable production. The increased demand for food and fuel exerts tremendous stress on all aspects of natural resources and the environment to satisfy an ever increasing world population, which includes the use of agriculture products for energy and other uses in addition to human and animal food. The book presents options for ecological systems that mimic the natural diversity of the ecosystem and can have significant effect as the world faces a rapidly changing and volatile climate. The book explores the introduction of sustainable agroecosystems that promote biodiversity, sustain soil health, and enhance food production as ways to help mitigate some of these adverse effects. New agroecosystems will help define a resilient system that can potentially absorb some of the extreme shifts in climate. Changing the existing cropping system paradigm to utilize natural system attributes by promoting biodiversity within production agricultural systems, such as the integration of polycultures, will also enhance ecological resiliency and will likely increase carbon sequestration. Focuses on the intensification and integration of agroecosystem and soil resiliency by presenting suggested modifications of the current cropping system paradigm Examines climate, environment, and human effects on agroecosystems Explores in depth the wide range of intercalated soil and plant interactions as they influence soil sustainability and, in particular, soil quality Presents options for ecological systems that mimic the natural diversity of the ecosystem and can have significant effect as the world faces a rapidly changing and volatile climate

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continued population growth, rapidly changing consumption patterns and the impacts of climate change and environmental degradation are driving limited resources of food, energy, water and materials towards critical thresholds worldwide. These pressures are likely to be substantial across Africa, where countries will have to find innovative ways to boost crop and livestock production to avoid becoming more reliant on imports and food aid. Sustainable agricultural intensification - producing more output from the same area of land while reducing the negative environmental impacts - represents a solution for millions of African farmers. This volume presents the lessons learned from 40 sustainable agricultural intensification programmes in 20 countries across Africa, commissioned as part of the UK Government's Foresight project. Through detailed case studies, the authors of each chapter examine how to develop productive and sustainable agricultural systems and how to scale up these systems to reach many more millions of people in the future. Themes covered include crop improvements, agroforestry and soil conservation, conservation agriculture, integrated pest management, horticulture, livestock and fodder crops, aquaculture, and novel policies and partnerships.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ending hunger, achieving food security and promoting sustainable development are at the top of the list of United Nations (UN) sustainable global development priorities. In the times of high population growth and increasing pressure of agricultural systems, efficiency in use of natural resources has been at the epicenter of sustainable agricultural. The concept of ‘Input efficiency’ implies production of high quantity and quality of food, from using only finite natural resources as inputs, in the form of mainly land, water, nutrients, energy, or biological diversity. In this book, editors provide a roadmap to the food, nutritional, and environmental security in the agricultural systems. They share insight into the approaches that can be put in practice for increasing the input use efficiency in the cropping systems and achieve stability and sustainability of agricultural production systems. This book is of interest to teachers, researchers, climate change scientists, capacity builders and policymakers. Also the book serves as additional reading material for undergraduate and graduate students of agriculture, agroforestry, agroecology, and environmental sciences. National and international agricultural scientists, policymakers will also find this to be a useful read.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bio-Economy and Agri-Production: Concepts and Evidence bridges the knowledge gap between sustainability and bio-economy aspects of agri-production. It complements traditional perspectives of agri-production with advanced engineering, information and communication technologies recently applied in agri-business. Including knowledgebased agriculture and reflecting sustainability and circular economy principles, the book presents a holistic view of sustainable bio-economy, contributing to the development of integrated agricultural systems. As technology advances, agricultural production management practices are now being called upon to address the need for sustainability in the bio-economy. Bio-Economy and Agri-Production: Concepts and Evidence presents information to broaden the awareness and promotion of practices and technology to reduce the use of inputs, protect health and environment and improve resource-use efficiency. Topics that are addressed include circular economy in agri-business, lifecycle thinking, lean management, agri-chains, green production, and waste management. Bio-Economy and Agri-Production: Concepts and Evidence is a valuable reference for professionals, consultants, and policy making stakeholders in biosystems engineering and agricultural industries Focuses on responsible management practices to protect the environment while producing needed resources Application based for those in agricultural sectors seeking to integrate bioeconomic strategies Provides real-world insights into transitioning practices
