Abiotic Stress Management in Fruit Crops (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Abiotic Stress Management in Fruit Crops explores the growing challenges posed by abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, temperature fluctuations, soil degradation, and environmental pollution on fruit crop production. This academic volume integrates theoretical frameworks and practical approaches. The book brings together the latest research, case studies, and management strategies aimed at enhancing resilience, productivity, and sustainability in fruit crops. With a focus on innovation, adaptability, and field relevance, this text addresses both foundational principles and emerging solutions for managing abiotic stress in a changing agricultural landscape.

The subject matter of this book includes:

• All major abiotic stress factors affecting fruit crops, including drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures.
• Latest scientific findings and field studies for informed stress management.
• Actionable strategies for growers and practitioners to mitigate stress impacts.
• Applicability across regions while grounded in Indian agricultural practices,the principles and approaches discussed have global relevance.
• Focus on sustainability agriculture through detailed discussions on integrated nutrient management, biofertilizers and fertifigation.

This book is aimed for students, researchers, extension specialists, and professionals in Horticultural Sciences
