Sobre este e-book

Drought Farming addresses the increasingly critical issue of water scarcity and its impact on agriculture, offering strategies for farmers to adapt to drought conditions. It highlights how choosing drought-resistant crops and implementing innovative water conservation methods are vital for agricultural resilience. For example, certain varieties of grains, legumes, and fruits have been specifically bred to withstand water stress, showcasing the potential of plant science in arid environments.

The book explores various water conservation techniques, such as drip irrigation, rainwater harvesting, and conservation tillage, illustrating their effectiveness through real-world case studies. These methods not only improve yields but also reduce water consumption, presenting a path towards sustainable agriculture.

It emphasizes that adapting to water scarcity requires a strategic approach, combining plant science, soil management, and water resource engineering. Beginning with an overview of global water scarcity and its socio-economic consequences, the book progresses through plant physiology, specific drought-resistant crops, and detailed water conservation techniques.

Providing a comprehensive look into agricultural resilience, the book aims to empower students, researchers, policymakers, as well as agricultural professionals.
