It is estimated that the global population could increase to 9 billion by 2050. Further, the amount of land devoted to farming has decreased. Soil is a living entity, and is not only a valuable natural resource for agricultural and food security, but also for the preservation of all life processes. Agricultural productivity rests on the foundation of microbial diversity in the soil, and in recent years, PGPR have emerged as an important and promising tool for sustainable agriculture. The injudicious use of agrochemicals by farmers has created a range of negative impacts, not only threatening the environment, but also destroying useful microorganisms in the soil. The efficient use of PGPR reduces the need for these chemicals while simultaneously lowering production costs. In turn, increased yields could provide a more favourable environment and encourage sustainability. This book assesses the impacts of PGPR on crops, environmental and socio-economic sustainability, and demonstrates these ecofriendly technologies? three critical advantages, namely (a) enhanced crop productivity, (b) reduced application of agrochemicals, and (c) increased incomes for farmers. Besides offering an economically attractive and ecologically sound means of augmenting the nutrient supply and combatting soil-borne pathogens, PGPR play an important part in boosting soil fertility, bioremediation and stress management for the development of ecofriendly and sustainable agriculture. 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aPlant science 606 $aBotany 606 $aGenetic engineering 606 $aOxidative stress 606 $aMicrobiology 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aAgriculture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006 606 $aPlant Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24000 606 $aGenetic Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C12037 606 $aOxidative Stress$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L16070 606 $aMicrobiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L23004 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aPlant science. 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aGenetic engineering. 615 0$aOxidative stress. 615 0$aMicrobiology. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 14$aAgriculture. 615 24$aPlant Sciences. 615 24$aGenetic Engineering. 615 24$aOxidative Stress. 615 24$aMicrobiology. 615 24$aSustainable Development. 676 $a630 702 $aKumar$b Ashok$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMeena$b Vijay Singh$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910350356403321 996 $aPlant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria for Agricultural Sustainability$92184163 997 $aUNINA
