Acerca deste libro electrónico
Drought and Crops examines the escalating global challenge of feeding the world amidst more frequent and severe droughts. It delves into the science of crop failures, exploring the ecological and economic impacts while investigating adaptation strategies for drought-resilient agriculture. Understanding plant responses to water stress is crucial, as is predicting drought impacts on agricultural yields. The book emphasizes that drought isn't just an environmental problem; it's deeply intertwined with climate change, population growth, and global food security, echoing historical events like the Dust Bowl.
The book progresses from fundamental concepts of drought to the physiological effects on plant growth, and then explores adaptation strategies like breeding for drought tolerance and optimizing irrigation. A key aspect is translating scientific knowledge into practical advice for farmers and policymakers, using accessible language to explain complex concepts. This approach highlights the need for a multi-faceted response, integrating scientific understanding, technological innovation, and policy interventions to fortify agricultural systems against drought.
