Achieving Sustainable Cultivation of Soybeans Volume 2 : Diseases, Pests, Food and Other Uses Hardback
Edited by Prof. Henry T. Nguyen
Part of the Burleigh Dodds Series in Agricultural Science series
Hardback
Description
Soybeans are one of the most widely-grown crops in the world.
As the world's main source of vegetable protein, they have a wide range of food and non-food uses.
Current yields need to increase significantly to meet growing demand but in a way that reduces input use, does not damage the environment and is resilient to climate change.
This collection reviews the wealth of research addressing this challenge. Volume 2 reviews advances in understanding and managing the range of diseases and pests that continue to cause significant crop losses.
Part 1 discusses fungal, viral and bacterial diseases as well as developments in disease-resistant varieties, integrated pest and weed management.
Part 2 summaries research on developing the food and non-food uses of soybean, from improving nutritional properties to uses in animal feed. With its distinguished editor and international team of authors, this will be a standard reference for soybean scientists, growers, government and non-government agencies supporting soybean cultivation.
It is accompanied by a companion volume that reviews advances in breeding and cultivation techniques.
