Growth and Mineral Nutrition of Field Crops
By the year 2050, the world's population is expected to reach nine billion. To feed and sustain this projected population, world food production must increase by at least 50 percent on much of the same land that we farm today. To meet this staggering challenge, scientists must develop the technology required to achieve an "evergreen" revolution-one
Phosphorus Management in Crop Production
The world population is projected to reach nine billion by 2050, and in the coming years, global food demand is expected to increase by 50% or more. Higher crop productivity gains in the future will have to be achieved in developing countries through better natural resources management and crop improvement. After nitrogen, phosphorus (P) has more widespread influence on both natural and agricultural ecosystems than any other essential plant element. It has been estimated that 5.7 billion hectares of land worldwide contain insufficient amounts of available P for sustainable crop production, and P deficiency in crop plants is a widespread problem in various parts of the world. However, it has ...
Growth and Mineral Nutrition of Field Crops
Emphasizing soil as the substrate for plant growth, this volume examines climate-soil-plant relationships governing growth and mineral nutrition of most vital temperate and tropical field crops around the world, including cereal, legume, and pasture crops. Covers recent studies of genetic, physiolog
Crops as Enhancers of Nutrient Use
The ability of plants to utilize nutrients under various environmental constraints is profoundly affected by genetic and physiological factors. These essays examine problems related to plant absorption from the perspectives of plant genetics, physiology, rhizosphere microbiology, soil chemistry, and agronomy. Topics include: plant and soil factors that promote efficient utilization of nutrients; plant- soil interactions; and how plants respond to nutrients at the cellular level, on a whole-plant basis and when subjected to stress.

Physiology of Crop Production
This single volume explores the theoretical and the practical aspects of crop physiological processes around the world The marked decrease over the past century in the land available for crop production has brought about mounting pressure to increase crop yields, especially in developing nations. Physiology of Crop Production provides cutting-edge research and data for complete coverage of the physiology of crop production, all in one source, right at your fingertips. This valuable reference gives the extensive in-depth information soil and crop professionals need to maximize crop productivity anywhere the world. Leading soil and plant scientists and researchers clearly explain theory, pract...
Growth and Mineral Nutrition of Field Crops, Third Edition
"Examines climate-soil-plant interrelationships governing the nutritional and growth aspects of cereal, legume, and pasture crops--providing basic and applied information to improve the management and potential yield of major temperate and tropical field crop. Second Edition furnishes a new chapter on the management of degraded soils, and improved organization of chapter sequence, and more than 325 tables and drawings--over 90 new to this edition."

Plant-Environment Interactions
This book presents comprehensive coverage of differentiated plant responses to changing environments. It focuses on how multiple and combined stress factors influence plant survival. It examines the latest data on the capacity of roots to alter growth patterns due to disturbances in physical and/or chemical soil constraints, water supply, and other traumas. It contains over 85% new and updated material with more than 1500 new citations, tables, drawings, and photographs.
