Description
Taylor and Francis Ltd Climate Neutral and Resilient Farming Systems 1st Edition 2022 Hardbound by Nagothu, Udaya Sekhar
presents evidence-based research on climate-neutral and resilient farming systems brings together international collaborative research on climate-neutral and resilient farming systems compiled by leading scientists and experts from Europe, Asia and Africa. present evidence-based research and innovative solutions that can be applied or upscaled in different farming systems and regions across the world. The book will be of great interest to students and academics of sustainable agriculture, food security, climate mitigation and sustainable development, in addition to policymakers and practitioners working in these areas. 1.
