  • Potassium Solubilizing Microorganisms for Sustainable Agriculture

    Edited by Vijay Singh Meena, Bihari Ram Maurya, Jay Prakash Verma, Ram Swaroop Meena ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The potassium solubilizing microorganisms (KSMs) are a rhizospheric microorganism which solubilizes the insoluble potassium (K) to soluble forms of K for plant growth and yield. K-solubilization is carried out by a large number of saprophytic bacteria (Bacillus mucilaginosus, B. edaphicus, B. circulans, Acidothiobacillus ferrooxidans, Paenibacillus spp.) and fungal strains (Aspergillus spp. and ...

  • Precision in Crop Farming

    Site Specific Concepts and Sensing Methods: Applications and Results

    Edited by Hermann J. Heege ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    High yields and environmental control in crop farming call for precise adaptations to local growing conditions. Treating large fields in a uniform way by high capacity machinery cannot be regarded as a sustainable method for many situations. Because differences existing within single fields must be considered. The transition from former field work carried out manually or by small implements to ... Read more

  • Soil Microbiology and Sustainable Crop Production

    Edited by Emma L. Tilston, Geoffrey R. Dixon ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Soils into which crop plants root and from which they obtain essential minerals and water contain huge arrays of microbes. Many have highly beneficial effects on crop growth and productivity, others are pathogens causing diseases and losses to yield and quality, a few microbes offer protection from these pathogenic forms and others have little or no effect. These intimate and often complex inter ... Read more
