Issued without a dust jacket. -- Due to many challenges, agriculture production potential is expected to be seriously affected; thus, increasing food insecurity and hunger in many already affected regions (especially in Africa). In this context, sustainable agriculture is highly recommended as an eco-system approach where soil, water, plants, environment and living organisms live in harmony. Innovative technologies and research should be developed to ensure sustainable agriculture and productivity using modern irrigation systems, improved varieties, soil quality, etc. In the meantime, the preservation of natural environment should be based on resource conservation technologies and best management practices. This book not only raises the serious ethical and social issues underlying the huge environmental problems, but also aims at presenting successful experiences from all over the world in relation with sustainable farming, sustainable management of water and land resources, and innovative processes in livestock production. It also aims at providing inputs to decision making processes and encouraging the transfer of relevant know-how, technologies and expertise to different countries where similar agro-climatic conditions may exist; thus saving precious resources and promoting sustainable agricultural development as a relevant approach to tackle the food security challenge. Finally, the book focuses on the paradigmatic and policy dimensions and call for an innovative approach by analyzing the key themes in a complex interrelated manner. -- Contents: I Sustainable Use of Land Resources as a Potential for Sustainable Agricultural Development / Land Resource Governance from a Sustainability & Rural Development Perspective; Land-Grabbing & Potential Implications for World Food Security; Turning Adversity Into Advantage for Food Security Through Improving Soil Quality & Providing Production Systems for Marginal Saline Lands: ICBA Perspectives & Approach; Development of New Technological Approach to Mitigate Salinization; Reforestation: Quality Improvement of Contaminated Mining Soil; Policy Framework for Sustainable Utilisation of Farmland for Waterberg District Municipality in South Africa; Zooecological Remediation of Technogen Faulted Soil in Industrial Region of Ukraine Steppe Zone; Transcultural Gardens: Proposal for Exploitation of Urban Voids as Intensively Productive Land & as a Method of Urbanization of Minorities: Case Studies Demonstrating Design Tools & Managing Methodology; II Sustainable Management of Water Resources as a Prerequisite for Sustainable Agriculture Development / Sustainable Rural Development & Participatory Approach by On-Farm Water Management Techniques; Sustainable Water Management for Irrigated Rice Production; Reduction of Water Losses by Use of Alternative Irrigation Techniques in the Aral Sea Drainage Basin; III Recent Innovative Processes in Agricultural Production / Use of Surface Modified Inorganic Nano Materials as Slow Release Nitrogen Fertilizer; Organic Fertilizer Use in Northeastern Thailand: Analysis of Some Factors Affecting Farmers' Attitudes; Imitating Nature to Enrich Waste with New Values & Use It as a New Resource; IV Recent Innovative Processes in Livestock Production / Farm Animal Breeding: Implications of Existing & New Technologies; Animal Husbandry in Focus of Sustainability; Effect of Urea-Treated Sorghum Stover Supplemented with Local Protein Sources on Performance of Sheep; Evaluation of Spineless Cactus (Opuntia Ficus-indicus) as an Alternative Feed & Water Source for Animals During Dry Season in Eritrea; Comparative Feeding Value of Halophyte as Alternative Animal Feed for Small Ruminants in Eritrea; Effect of Feeding Ensilages of Poultry Litter with Leftover Bread on Body Weight of Barka Cattle; Postface; Index.

Condition: Gut. Zustand: Gut | Seiten: 408 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | This book contributes to the on-going debates on climate change by focusing on the SDGs and exploring linkages between environmental change and food security as well as the relevance and need to consider the management of natural resources, especially water, soil and forest. Compared to relevant existing publications, this book covers case studies that capture the everyday realities of the local people and how they react and adapt to similar situations in different geographical settings. Each case study presented in this book gives a particular message. The strength of this book lies in the fact that it covers the most neglected topics in climate negotiations in spite of the fact that these decide the fate of millions of people around the world, especially the developing countries. By presenting a collection of case studies from Africa, Asia and Europe, this book encourages cross-continental knowledge sharing. The scope of the book ranges from impacts to mitigation and from in-field experiments to policy implementation. It contributes to the existing knowledge on climate-food nexus and connects climate change to sectors it could impact directly. All chapters in this book emphasise local ownership of strategy processes, effective participation from all levels, and high-level commitment. Besides being relevant for the academicians and scholars working in the field of climate change, forest and agriculture, it aims to catch interest of the policy makers and practitioners to understand ground realities for appropriate action. It is also bound to make an impact on the Non-Governmental Organizations around the world and in the three different continents that this book covers, considering the indigenous and local issues highlighted in this book.

Condition: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 372 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Human activity is changing the global environment at an unprecedented rate while humanity faces a range of complex and interrelated challenges to local, regional and global development, human security and politics. Food security ranks high on the science, policy and development agendas. However, most research linking global change and food systems examines the impact of climate change on agricultural production, or the impact of agriculture on land use, pollution and biodiversity, overlooking interactions with other aspects of the food system ¿ such as food processing, packaging, transportation and consumption and employment derived from these activities.This book demonstrates that new threats to food security which arise from environmental change require more than simply a focus on agricultural practices ¿ what is needed is an integrated food system approach. The authors point out that the process of adapting food systems to global environmental change is not simply a search for technological solutions to increase agricultural yields. Tradeoffs across multiple scales among food system outcomes are a prevalent feature of globalized food systems. Within food systems, there are key underexplored areas that are both sensitive to environmental change and crucial to understanding its implications for food security and adaptation strategies.The authors assert that technical prescriptions alone will not efficiently manage the food security challenge. This book is their contribution to a new paradigm, which addresses food systems holistically by engaging researchers in multiple disciplines to understand the causes and drivers of vulnerability.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This volume is the outcome of an international cooperation between 73 scientists, experts, and practitioners from many countries, disciplines, and professional areas. As a part of a series of CERES publications, the volume attempts to contribute to the scientific debate about the foodbiodiversityclimate nexus by developing a comprehensive region-specific and broader global understanding of the linkages between these areas, especially in the context of Global South. Instead of providing only modern science-based solutions for the nexus related challenges, the volume covers case studies that present mixed solutions, offering the use of traditional ecological knowledge in combination with modern science for both resilience and sustainability. This is increasingly instrumental in shaping the needed response options regarding the economic, social, and environmental future of the world. Based on a multi-regional and cross-sectoral analysis, the approach consists of: assessing the differentnatural and anthropogenic factors currently affecting ecosystems and their services, especially the impacts of climate change; highlighting the different linkages between the state of biodiversity and food systems in many contexts and scales; and exploring the various response mechanisms to effectively manage the implications of such linkages. Most chapters provide inputs for future relevant research and policy agendas.
