These physiological process are presented in a double context of challenges and solutions. The challenges to increase plant - based food fodder fiber and energy against the backdrop of population increase climate change dietary choices and declining public funding for research and development in agriculture are unprecedented and urgent. The proximal technological solutions to these challenges are genetic improvement and agronomy. Hence the premise of the book is that crop physiology is most valuable when it engages meaningfully with breeding and agronomy. With contributions from 92 leading scientists from around the world each chapter deals with a crop: maize rice wheat barley sorghum and oat; quinoa; soybean field pea chickpea peanut common bean lentil lupin and faba bean; sunflower and canola; potato cassava sugar beet and sugarcane; and cotton.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Crop Physiology Case Histories For Major Crops\u003cbr\u003e\nBrand: Elsevier Science Publishing Co Inc\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780128191941\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 778 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 12\/10\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Agronomy \u0026amp; Crop Production","brand":"Elsevier Science Publishing Co Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49591334011185,"sku":"IN-G-9780128191941","price":190.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780128191941.jpg?v=1761274803","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780128191941-crop-physiology-case-histories-for-major-crops","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
