Описание: Central Asia is vulnerable to water scarcity because it is located in semiarid and arid vegetation zones and large parts of its economy depend on water for irrigation and energy. Climate-change scenarios predict temperature increases and a rising number of extreme weather events, which will exacerbate water shortages in the future. In addition, the population of Central Asia is growing more rapidly than the rate of food production which is resulting in food insecurity in many parts of the region too. This volume reports the deliberations of politicians, scientists and representatives of water management organizations from throughout Central Asia. Their contributions not only highlight areas of concern, but also propose numerous ideas for improving the long-term water- and food security in the region.
As the world population is exploding and alongside fluctuations in climate is also prevalent, there is an increasing stress on the food requirements of the population.
We have an urgent necessity to produce more food in the limited agricultural land. Further, to feed 7 billion people there is a requirement of high yielding crops, without harming environment and limiting the use of unnecessary pesticide and chemical fertilizers. Therefore it has become crucial to develop agri-bio-techniques which are environment friendly and also give high crop productivity.
Many countries are evaluating the utility of biotechnology and its role in addressing problems of food security and poverty.
Biotechnology is the application of scientific and engineering principles to the processing and production of materials by utilising biological agents. These agents are exploited to provide goods and services.
Agricultural biotechnology encompasses a growing list of techniques that range from simple probes to determine a relevant gene from the complete genome to manipulating genes for a desired outcome. Many other popular methods used in the realm of agricultural technology are - gene integration, Marker-assisted breeding, Tissue culture, Gene profiling or association mapping, Metabolomics etc.
The fundamental challenge facing the scientific community is how to devise innovative strategies that will bring all developed as well as developing countries into the "biological fold" and to do so in ways that will take full advantage of advances in the biological sciences to curb poverty, improve public health, and promote human development.
This book contains information on eco-friendly techniques for high crop productivity and it is a myriad of different techniques and technology used to sustain productivity in crop plants.
There are fewer books focusing on large-scale organic farming, molecular farming etc. Multidisciplinary research and literature is needed to deliver knowledge and products into the marketplace which fulfil these requirements.
The present book is a collection of literature contributed by experts, scientists, professors, and researchers from around the world, it emphasizes work of concerned scientist and his choice of techniques used for enhancement of agricultural production. This book analyses the use of modern techniques to increase crop yields, production, and risk of hunger linked to socioeconomic scenarios.

Описание: With strong macroeconomic fundamentals, Indian economy was well-placed on the trajectory of steady growth rate when the outbreak of coronavirus epidemic, emanating from China, was reported. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the epidemic as a pandemic. Normal economic activities around the world came to a screeching halt as governments announced lockdowns to prevent the spread of the disease. India announced a stringent nationwide lockdown from March 25, 2020. Most of the economic activities in urban areas were halted. However, rural India continued to be normal in view of the exemption from restrictions allowed to farmers to conduct farming operations, including harvesting and transporting their produce to grain markets with the general conditions of face covering, hand hygiene and social distancing. Sensing the gravity of the situation, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced, on May 12, 2020, a ` 20 lakh crore stimulus package which was about 10 percent of countrys gross domestic product (GDP). It was named as Aatmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan (Self-reliant India Initiative). The details of the ` 20 lakh crore package were announced by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in five tranches during the next five consecutive days. Many of the measures announced by the Government were aimed at giving relief to the poor and lower middle class and increasing the pricing power of farmers. Over the years, India has built an extensive network of social security programmes and schemes, including the flagship Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS). This book explains and examines various social security programmes and schemes of the Government of India for the benefit of vulnerable and disadvantaged sections of the society.

Описание: Dit boek beschrijft de methode CATS CM, versie 4 voor het managen van contracten en is toe te passen binnen private en publieke organisaties, bij opdrachtgevers en leveranciers.Contractmanagement is het realiseren van de met het contract beoogde doelstellingen door tijdens de uitvoeringsfase van een contract, proactief invulling te geven aan alle contractueel vastgelegde verantwoordelijkheden, verplichtingen, procedures, afspraken, voorwaarden en tarieven, het management van de risico`s, het oplossen van alle onduidelijkheden, tegenstrijdigheden en hiaten en het verzorgen van de gewenste wijzigingen in het contract. CATS CM(R) biedt een methodische aanpak voor contractmanagement. Het beschrijft de uitgangspunten, de rollen, de aandachtpunten voor de contractmanager en de te volgen werkwijze. Naast een beschrijving van de methode biedt CATS CM versie 4 ook handvatten voor de implementatie van contractmanagement zowel voor beleid als proces.Een groot aantal organisaties heeft CATS CM inmiddels geselecteerd als basis voor hun contractmanagementproces. Mede op basis van hun ervaringen met CATS CM is deze nieuwe versie 4 ontstaan. CATS CM 4 gaat net als voorgaande edities uit van het standpunt dat het managen van een contract in uitvoering, aan beide kanten van het contract (opdrachtgever en leverancier) sterke overeenkomsten vertoont en dus het best in samenhang wordt beschreven. Dit boek is bedoeld voor iedereen die verantwoordelijk is voor, dan wel te maken heeft met contracten in uitvoering: contractmanagers, businessmanagers, deliverymanagers, projectmanagers, servicemanagers, facilitymanagers, inkopers, inkoopmanagers, compliance managers, risicomanagers, accountmanagers, salesmanagers en HR-managers, hun directeuren en stuurgroepleden aan beide zijden van het contract.
