Microbiomics and Sustainable Crop Production 1st Edition

Microbiomics and Sustainable Crop Production — 1st Edition by Mohammad Yaseen Mir and Saima Hamid

Unlock the hidden power of soil life with this timely, practical guide that bridges cutting-edge microbiomics and real-world sustainable agriculture. Combining rigorous science with actionable strategies, this 1st Edition explains how microbial communities shape nutrient cycling, plant health, pest suppression, and climate resilience across diverse cropping systems.

Explore clear, accessible chapters on metagenomic approaches, soil and rhizosphere microbiome management, bioinoculants, and farm-level interventions that improve yield while reducing chemical inputs. Case studies and regional examples make the research applicable to temperate and tropical contexts — from South Asia and Africa to Latin America and Europe — so agronomists, extension agents, and policy-makers can adapt solutions to local soils and climates.

Written for researchers, graduate students, crop consultants, and forward-thinking farmers, this book blends theory with practice: diagnostics for soil microbiome assessments, strategies for integrating microbial tools into crop management, and guidance on monitoring ecosystem services and sustainability metrics. The authors’ expertise ensures a balanced view of opportunities and limitations, helping readers design resilient, climate-smart cropping systems.

If you’re committed to sustainable crop production and want a modern reference that ties molecular microbiomics to field-level outcomes, this authoritative volume is essential. Add Microbiomics and Sustainable Crop Production to your professional library and start transforming soil biology into measurable agronomic gains.
