Regenerative agriculture is an approach that aims to restore and enhance soil health, focusing on practices that promote soil fertility, biodiversity, and ecosystem resilience. The theme of the book captures the growing recognition of the urgent need for sustainable agricultural systems that prioritize soil health to address environmental challenges, improve food security, and ensure the long-term viability of agricultural practices. The book covers a wide range of topics related to soil health management in the transition from conventional to regenerative agriculture. It covers the principles and concepts of soil health, the challenges and limitations of conventional agriculture, the assessment of soil health using various indicators, and the importance of cover crops, crop rotation, conservation tillage, nutrient management, and water conservation practices. In addition, the book addresses the role of soil biodiversity, policy frameworks, and scaling up regenerative agriculture, providing practical strategies and case studies. The book provides farmers, policy makers, researchers, and students with the knowledge and tools to implement sustainable agricultural systems that prioritize soil health and promote the transition to regenerative practices. 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEcology 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aSustainability 606 $aEnvironmental Sciences 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aSustainability. 615 0$aEcology. 615 14$aAgriculture. 615 24$aSustainability. 615 24$aEnvironmental Sciences. 676 $a630 700 $aMishra$b Ajay Kumar$0996317 701 $aSharma$b Sheetal$01781176 701 $aMishra$b Antaryami$01781177 701 $aRoy$b Anindita$0976572 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910983330403321 996 $aTransition to Regenerative Agriculture$94317563 997 $aUNINA LEADER 11392nam 2200709Ia 450 001 9910960838203321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9786610222063 010 $a9781280222061 010 $a1280222069 010 $a9780309567985 010 $a030956798X 035 $a(CKB)110986584750728 035 $a(OCoLC)666940093 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebrary10071493 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000224755 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11203089 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000224755 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10229887 035 $a(PQKB)11223595 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3377463 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3377463 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10071493 035 $a(OCoLC)830028469 035 $a(Perlego)4737553 035 $a(EXLCZ)99110986584750728 100 $a19850917d1986 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 04$aThe Positive sum strategy $eharnessing technology for economic growth /$fRalph Landau and Nathan Rosenberg, editors 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aWashington, D.C. $cNational Academy Press$d1986 215 $a1 online resource (656 p.) 300 $aSponsored by the National Academy of Engineering and others. 311 08$a9780309078481 311 08$a0309078482 311 08$a9780309036306 311 08$a0309036305 320 $aIncludes bibliographies and index. 327 $aThe Positive Sum Strategy -- Copyright -- Introduction -- WHY DIALOGUE IS NEEDED -- Why Should Technologists Be Concerned About Economics?
