This book has comprehensive coverage and advances in agriculture for sustainable development and is expected to provide valuable sources for scholars and researchers, as well as serve as a guide book to the farmer’s community and development agencies. The book is organized into 18 chapters, which include advances in production technologies of crops e.g. rice, wheat, barley, maize, pearl millet, pulses and oilseeds; sugarcane; medicinal and aromatic plants; vegetable crops; fodder crops; resource conservation technologies; management of degraded and sodic lands; soil biodiversity; farm mechanization, etc. The text is illustrated with tables, figures and photographs to bring out the significant findings. The book provides cutting-edge scientific knowledge as well as solid background information that are accessible for those who have a strong interest in agricultural research and development and want to learn more on the challenges facing the global agricultural production systems. Note: T&F does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. This title is co-published with New India Publishing Agency.

Advances in Crop Production and Climate Change

This edited volume focuses on the characterization, reclamation, bioremediation, and phytoremediation of salt affected soils and waterlogged sodic soils. Innovative technologies in managing marginal salt affected lands merit immediate attention in the light of climate change and its impact on crop productivity and environment. The decision-making process related to reclamation and management of vast areas of salt affected soils encompasses consideration of economic viability, environmental sustainability, and social acceptability of different approaches. The chapters in this book highlight the significant environmental and social impacts of different ameliorative techniques used to manage salt affected soils. Readers will discover new knowledge on the distribution, reactions, changes in bio-chemical properties and microbial ecology of salt affected soils through case studies exploring Indian soils. The contributions presented by experts shed new light on techniques such as the restoration of degraded lands by growing halophyte plant species, diversification of crops and introduction of microbes for remediation of salt infested soils, and the use of fluorescent pseudomonads for enhancing crop yields.

Kubeflow simplifies and automates machine learning tasks like interactive analysis, complex pipelines, and model training. Seamlessly push models to production in the containerized and distributed environment and scale your ML infrastructure from your laptop to a Kubernetes cluster. Kubeflow in Action shows you how to utilize Kubeflow to rapidly scale machine learning projects from a laptop to a distributed cluster. You’ll kick off with a rapid introduction to containers, benefit from careful guidance on Kubeflow’s installation and initial setup, and master core Kubeflow tasks like storing data, training models, and monitoring metrics. Detailed use cases help show how to construct complex pipelines, automate hyperparameter tuning, and implement network architecture search. You’ll quickly progress to a deep dive into Kubeflow’s more advanced uses, including training distributed models, deployment, A/B testing, and infrastructure monitoring to help trigger actions based on incoming data. Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.
