Description

Address the global challenges of food security and land degradation with this academic resource from Springer. As malnutrition affects approximately 20% of the world population due to food shortages and distribution issues, understanding the science of plant breeding becomes more important than ever. This text examines the critical environmental factors impacting agriculture, such as the annual loss of 75 billion metric tons of soil through wind and erosion. It provides context on the destruction and abandonment of arable land caused by unsustainable practices. By exploring the quantitative and ecological dimensions of plant breeding, this book offers a deep look into the scientific methods needed to manage agricultural land more effectively and combat the loss of productive soil. It is an essential read for those studying the intersection of biology, ecology, and global food systems.
