• Sommario/riassunto: This book explores harnessing mycorrhiza in hilly agriculture and presents innovative strategies for sustainable cultivation. Exploring the symbiotic relationship between plants and mycorrhizal fungi reveals how this partnership can optimize soil health, enhance nutrient uptake, and increase crop resilience in challenging terrains. From understanding the ecological role of mycorrhiza to practical applications in hilly regions, the book highlights the use of mycorrhiza in hill agriculture, including details on mycorrhizal diversity, its impact on hill crops, and how to maintain and promote mycorrhizal diversity for better sustainability and economic viability. By addressing the unique challenges faced by hillside farmers, it aims to improve agricultural practices, mitigate erosion, and promote long-term environmental sustainability. This book is essential for policymakers seeking sustainable agricultural strategies, researchers exploring beneficial fungi, soil scientists, agronomists, progressive farmers and students pursuing agriculture sciences. .
