Book excerpt: First published in 1966, Lockhart and Wiseman’s Crop Husbandry Including Grassland has established itself as the standard crop husbandry text for students and practitioners alike. Radically revised and expanded, and with a new team of authors, the eighth edition confirms and extends its reputation. Part one looks at the basic conditions for crop growth with chapters on plant structure and growth, soil analysis and management, and the use of fertilisers and manures. There is also a new chapter on the influence of climate and weather. Part two surveys general aspects of crop husbandry. As well as a discussion of cropping techniques, there are new chapters on the important new areas of integrated crop management and organic crop husbandry, as well as discussion of seed selection and production. Part three then looks at how these general techniques are applied to particular crops, with chapters on cereals, root crops, fresh harvested crops, forage crops and combinable break crops. Part four considers the use of grassland with chapters on classification, sowing and management, grazing and conservation for winter feed. Lockhart and Wiseman’s Crop Husbandry Including Grassland remains the standard text for general agriculture, land management and agri-business courses, and is a valuable practical reference for the farming industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lockhart and Wiseman's Crop Husbandry Including Grassland, Tenth Edition delivers the latest developments in crop varieties, crop protection products and environmental schemes. Reflecting the increasing threat from climate change coverage of climate and weather has been enlarged to include the latest information. Further, as farming in the future, especially with the increasing cost of labour and limited availability of suitable staff, farmers will have to rely on new technologies and use of robots. The several and significant changes in this area since the last edition is also reflected as the chapter on Precision Farming is broadened to be appropriately comprehensive. As there is a global market for agricultural commodities it is important that agricultural students have some understanding of world agricultural systems and a new chapter on this subject is now included. Increased yield demand due to rapidly increasing population, changing climate impact on crops and their growing seasons, economic and regulatory updates have significantly impacted crop husbandry since the publication of the 9th edition in 2014. Just as previous editions have built upon the solid foundation of the original 1966 publication, this 10th edition of Lockhart & Wiseman's Crop Husbandry Including Grassland reflects the changing world around us. Part I covers the principles of crop production with chapters concerning plants, climate, soil management, fertilisers, manures, weeds and diseases threatening farm crops. Part II focuses on crop husbandry techniques. Reflecting current progress, chapters have been re-aligned to address the integration of sustainability across the board in crop production. The revision includes additional focus on the principles of plant breeding and seed production, and now addresses certification considerations necessary for today's agriculture. Part III explores core crops from cereals to non-food crops before the book concludes with Part IV's coverage of grassland and forage crops. Appendix material provides valuable additional reference and resource information for deeper discovery. This tenth edition of Lockhart and Wiseman's Crop Husbandry Including Grassland is relevant for students throughout the UK and Europe as well as for those entering agriculture from other areas of expertise who need strong foundational understanding of the topic. It is a useful reference book for agricultural National Diploma courses, Foundation Degrees and BSc degrees and is important for Masters level students entering agriculture from another discipline. Returning contributor Alison M. Samuel was Senior Associate Lecturer at the University of Plymouth, UK and now acts as lead editor for the work alongside Louisa Dines, Harper Adams University.

Book excerpt: Since 1983, when the last edition was published, there have been important new developments in crop husbandry methods as well as an increasing awareness of political and ecological pressures. These pressures have resulted in considerable changes in crop husbandry and the new edition reflects these changes by updating all chapters and by including new sections on combinable crops, organic farming and nitrogen leaching. As in previous editions this book presents all the modern crop production methods in a comprehensive and easily understood manner. As such it should continue to be the standard textbook for all crop husbandry syllabi at all levels of agricultural teaching.

Book excerpt: This new, fully updated and revised edition of Improved Grassland Management covers all aspects of grassland management and is of particular relevance to the UK and the Republic of Ireland, although the principles discussed apply to all temperate grassland zones. Almost twenty years ago, when the original edition of this book was written by John Frame, issues such as efficiency in the use of nutrients in manures, grassland biodiversity and greenhouse gas emissions from ruminant production were either nascent, or of no relevance to mainstream grassland farming. The intervening two decades have seen the introduction of water and, latterly, air quality directives by the EU, cross compliance, the single farm payment, and an ever-increasing need for grassland farmers to be conscious of the economics of their business. The present edition, which has been thoroughly revised by Scott Laidlaw, covers the full scope of modern grassland management. Accordingly the application of technical developments in supplying and utilizing grass and forage, which remain central to grassland management, is presented in the context of these changes.Topics covered include: breeding and evaluation of new varieties of grass to meet current needs; new technology in establishing swards; legislative constraints, background science and practice in determining forage quality and the utilization of forage either for grazing or silage; feed budgeting, grassland biodiversity, grassland and climate change, and transferring knowledge and technology; wide-ranging list of sources and references, which provides the reader with further detailed information. Essential reading for all those involved in modern grassland management including grassland farmers, agricultural consultants and advisory officers, as well as agricultural, land use and biology students. Written in a reader-friendly advisory style, it can be read and understood without an in-depth technical or scientific background. Fully illustrated with 61 colour photographs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to IPCC reports, one of the greatest threats to the Earth ecosystems is climate change caused by the anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases, mostly carbon dioxide, mainly from the combustion of fossil fuels, cement production and land-use change which leads to an excessive temperature rise. Agriculture and forestry are responsible for quiet big emissions of greenhouse gases: CO2, CH4 and N2O, and have significant potential to reduce these emissions mainly through enhancement of CO2 absorption by terrestrial ecosystems. To evaluate the impact of agriculture on climate change, ruminant farming should be also taken into account. These animals emit considerable amounts of methane which has strong greenhouse effects. Methane emissions may be reduced by using appropriate feed for ruminants. Decreasing the meat consumption of these animals can also make an important contribution to reducing methane emissions. The methods for reducing greenhouse gas emissions through appropriate management of terrestrial ecosystems and animal husbandry are widely discussed in The Role of Agriculture in Climate Change Mitigation. The book will be of interest to academics, professionals and policy makers in environmental sciences.
