Principles of Agronomy for Sustainable Agriculture by Francisco J. Villalobos,Elias Fereres Pdf

This textbook explains the various aspects of sustainable agricultures to undergraduate and graduate students. The book first quantifies the components of the crop energy balance, i.e. the partitioning of net radiation, and their effect on the thermal environment of the canopy. The soil water balance and the quantification of its main component (evapotranspiration) are studied to determine the availability of water to rain fed crops and to calculate crop water requirements. Then it sets the limitations of crop production in relation to crop phenology, radiation interception and resource availability (e.g. nutrients). With that in mind the different agricultural techniques (sowing, tillage, irrigation, fertilization, harvest, application of pesticides, etc.) are analyzed with special emphasis in quantifying the inputs (sowing rates, fertilizer amounts, irrigation schedules, tillage plans) required for a given target yield under specific environmental conditions (soil & climate). For all techniques strategies are provided for improving the ratio productivity/resource use while ensuring sustainability. The book comes with online practical focusing on the key aspects of management in a crop rotation (collecting weather data, calculating productivity, sowing rates, irrigation programs, fertilizers rates etc).

The Principles of Agronomy by Franklin Stewart Harris Pdf

Excerpt from The Principles of Agronomy: A d104-Book of Crop Production for High-Schools and Short-Courses in Agricultural Colleges Agricultural instruction in the high-school has extended so rapidly within the last few years that the demand for suitable text-books has become insistent. The variation in the teaching in different schools is so great that several texts are required. Some high schools give but one year in agriculture, While others give four. This book is designed fer schools giving more than one course in agriculture; its study should probably precede instruction in horticulture or animal husbandry. A knowledge of botany and chemistry, although not presupposed, Will assist in a better understanding of some, perhaps all, of the chapters.
