Om denne bog
In the current global climate, biodiversity management is a subject of great interest to both researchers and development professionals. This includes information on the current status of plant and animal biodiversity, as well as indigenous practices, landraces, traditional knowledge, and gene bank conservation. The text also provides a detailed account of how underutilized bioresources can be brought under commercial use for major agricultural crops such as wheat, rice, maize, sorghum, organic pigeon pea, millets, niger, and cotton. Sustainability cannot be achieved without the use of animal bioresources, and therefore information on cattle, Indian livestock, poultry, native chickens, camelids, and pollinator faunas are included. Additionally, the text covers monitoring methods for the presence of adventitious transgenes and xenobiotic monitoring. Community involvement is a crucial component of sustainable agrobiodiversity management. The text emphasizes the importance of awareness, community strategies, social equity, conservation of local practices, and community participation. Indigenous practices for seed storage, conservation of traditional water tanks, tribal farmers knowledge and practices, the role of women in conservation, organic practices, community seed networks, community pastures, and public-private partnerships are all discussed.
