Agroforestry
Agroforestry is an integrated approach of using the interactive benefits from combining trees and shrubs with crops and/or livestock. It combines agricultural and forestry technologies to create more diverse, productive, profitable, healthy and sustainable land-use systems. In agroforestry systems, trees or shrubs are intentionally used within agricultural systems, or non-timber forest resources are cultured in forest settings. The present book describes the state of current knowledge in the rapidly expanding field of agroforestry. Organised into 16 chapters, it reviews the developments in agroforestry and describes the accomplishments in the application of biophysical and socioeconomic sciences to agroforestry. Although the major focus of the book is on the tropics, where the practice and potential of agroforestry are particularly are particularly promising, the developments in temperate zone agroforestry are also discussed. The book is designed for students, teachers, and researchers in agroforestry and farming systems.
Biochemistry of Diabetes and Atherosclerosis
Diabetes is an autoimmune, inflammatory disease affecting many different organ systems and exhibiting both primary and secondary defects. Because diabetes affects a wide range of cellular systems, a multidisciplinary effort has been mounted over the past several decades using a wide range of investigative techniques and methodologies in order to identify molecular mechanisms responsible for cellular dysfunction. Because primary defects at various levels of sub-cellular signaling, intracellular calcium handling, protein expression and energy regulation are often a primary consequence of diabetes. This volume is a compilation of new multidisciplinary research that will broaden our current understanding of diabetes and cardiovascular disease as well as provide the basis for the development of novel therapeutic interventions.
Agricultural Extension
Agricultural extension was once known as the application of scientific research and new knowledge to agricultural practices through farmer education. The field of extension now encompasses a wider range of communication and learning activities organised for rural people by professionals from different disciplines, including agricultural, agricultural marketing, health, and business studies. Extension practi-tioners can be found throughout the world, usually working for government agencies. The present publication on agricultural extension is a thorough, practical handbook that explains the purpose, importance, and far-reaching effects of agricultural extension throughout the world.

Agroenergia, Energia e Sociedade: Textos Selecionados
Os pesquisadores do Núcleo em Interinidades em Desenvolvimento Econômico, Social e Energético da Universidade Federal do Tocantins (TO-BR), do Mestrado em Agroenergia, tiveram a iniciativa de lançar este livro tendo como alvo os pesquisadores, estudantes e profissionais da área de Economia da Energia. O mesmo está dividido em quatro capítulos, sendo que o primeiro tratou de explanar sobre a produção de cana-de-açúcar e etanol no Estado do Tocantins, no segundo, o assunto principal foi mostrar a importância dos sistemas de integração ILP, IPF, ILP, ILPF e os Sistemas Agroflorestais (SAFs) para o meio ambiente e a sociedade, no terceiro apresentou um estudo de caso de utilização de resíduos agrícolas para a produção de energia e fertilizante na avicultura, no quarto e último realizou-se uma análise do problema de assimetria de informação e de eficiência alocativa dos recursos por parte dos agentes do setor elétrico e de sua Agência Reguladora
Atherosclerosis, Hypertension and Diabetes
This volume is devoted to atherosclerosis, hypertension, and diabetes, three of the most important disease conditions in the world today. Nutritional intervention, cholesterol lowering agents, lipids themselves, particularly oxidized LDL, protein modification by ADP-ribose, bone marrow study, endothelial cell dysfunction, angiotensin, and the role of infection and inflammation are all discussed in the context of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The hypertension section focuses on factors that may be responsible for high blood pressure, such as genetic predisposition, vascular hyperplasia and remodeling, insulin resistance, neurological aspects such as hypothalamic peptides. Also discu...
Agroecosystems of South India
Agroecosystems of South India is a unique treatise that deals with the relevance of natural resources, genetic stocks, fertilizers, and agronomic practices on the productivity of agroecoregions. Within the context of this book, an agroecosystem has been defined as a conglomerate of small cropping zones, which may be mono-cropping expanses or intercrops that occur in various geographic regions of South India. South India abounds with several such agroecosystems that encompass field crops, vegetables, cash crops, plantations, and forest species. However, the main emphasis within this volume is restricted to agroecosystems that include major cereals, legumes, and oil seed crops. There are 10 ch...
Advances in Communication and Applications
This book presents the proceedings of the International Conference on Emerging Research in Computing, Information, Communication and Applications (ERCICA) 2023. The conference provides an interdisciplinary forum for researchers, professional engineers and scientists, educators and technologists to discuss, debate and promote research and technology in the upcoming areas of computing, information, communication and their applications. Some of the topics include the Internet of Things (IoT), wireless communications, image and video processing, parallel and distributed computing, and smart grid applications, among others. The book discusses these emerging research areas, providing a valuable resource for researchers and practicing engineers alike.
