The agriculture sector is a significant contributor to global waste generation, with various waste products generated throughout the diverse processes within the industry. Agricultural practices such as mechanical tillage, mono-cropping, the application of agrochemicals, irrigation with waste and industrial waters, and other factors, negatively impact soil health and productivity. Consequently, these agricultural wastes can have detrimental effects on the environment, leading to ecological instability.
To address this issue, the book delves into the sources and impacts of agri-waste on the environment, providing effective techniques, processes, and sustainable practices for efficient agricultural waste management. Chapters also explore innovative engineering-based technologies that can contribute to agri-waste remediation. The volume includes discussions on various remediation techniques, including the use of biofertilizers, biocontrol agents, vermicomposting, green chemistry, microbial interventions, and more. Additionally, the book explores the diverse applications of agri-waste, with a particular focus on their utilization in the plant-soil system.
This book serves as a valuable reference source for academicians, professionals, researchers, students, and policymakers interested in innovative management of agricultural waste. By implementing sustainable practices, bio-techniques, and new technologies, we can mitigate the harmful impact of agricultural waste and contribute to environmental sustainability.
