CRISPR for Climate-Smart and Sustainable Agriculture

CRISPR for Climate-Smart and Sustainable Agriculture by Jen-Tsung Chen is a timely, authoritative guide for scientists, agronomists, policymakers, and progressive farmers seeking practical gene-editing solutions to today’s agricultural challenges. This concise yet comprehensive volume explains how CRISPR technology can accelerate crop resilience against drought, heat, salinity, pests, and emerging diseases—helping secure yields across temperate and tropical regions alike.

Inside, Chen translates cutting-edge research into actionable strategies: targeted trait editing for improved water- and nutrient-use efficiency, approaches to reduce post-harvest loss, and frameworks to align biotech innovation with regulatory and ethical demands. Clear case studies emphasize real-world applications in Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Americas, making the book relevant to diverse farming systems and food-security priorities globally.

Whether you’re a researcher designing trials, a policy advisor shaping sustainable-agriculture programs, or a stakeholder evaluating climate-smart investments, this book equips you with a practical roadmap to responsibly harness CRISPR for long-term productivity and environmental stewardship. The prose is technical where it needs to be and accessible where context matters, balancing scientific rigor with policy and on-farm relevance.
