IGI Global (Verlag)
978-1-5225-1715-3 (ISBN)
The potato is a significant food around the globe in the grand scheme of consumption. However, changes in the Earth’s climate are threatening to negatively impact the growth and production of agriculture, namely potatoes, which in turn will greatly alter the dimensions of food.
Sustainable Potato Production and the Impact of Climate Change is an authoritative publication that provides the latest research on potato production in the future climate change scenario. Featuring exhaustive coverage on a variety of topics associated with food fundamentals such as, availability, stability, utilization, and accessibility, this reference work is an essential source for professionals, researchers and students seeking current research on the importance of potato cultivation.
Topics Covered:
Aerosol Treatments
Agro Climate
Geoinformantics
Nutrient Application Rate
Nutrient Deficiency
Potato Diseases
