ISBN: 9251085196
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 124
Book Description
FAO’s best-selling 2011 publication, Save and Grow, proposed a new paradigm of agriculture, one that is both highly productive and environmentally sustainable. This new book looks at the application of “Save and Grow” practices and technologies to production of the world’s key food security crops – maize, rice and wheat. With examples drawn from developing countries worldwide, it shows how eco-friendly farming systems are helping smallholder producers to boost cereal yields, improve their incomes and livelihoods, conserve natural resources, reduce negative impacts on the environment, and build resilience to climate change. The book will be a valuable reference for policymakers and development practitioners guiding the transition to sustainable food and agriculture.

Category : Electronic books
Languages : en
Pages : 36
Book Description
"This guide has been produced as part of the GRDC funded project (SFS 00006) examining the role of disease control and canopy management in optimising cereal production in south east Australia. Results are primarily based on information generated in the high rainfall zone in 2003 and 2004, though control sites in the Mallee and Wimmera provided drier environments for comparative data. The booklet is designed to give growers greater confidence in identifying the important cereal growth stages and how they relate to the principles of disease management and canopy management." --Intro.
