Residues from agriculture and the food industry consist of many and varied wastes, in total accounting for over 250 million tonnes of waste per year in the UK alone. Biotechnological processing of these residues would allow these waste products to be used as a resource, with tremendous potential. An extensive range of valuable and usable products can be recovered from what was previously considered waste: including fuels, feeds and pharmaceutical products. In this way Biotechnology can offer many viable alternatives to the disposal of agricultural waste, producing several new products in the process. This book presents up-to-date information on a biotechnology approach for the utilisation of agro-industrial residues, presenting chapters with detailed information on materials and bioconversion technology to obtain products of economic importance: The production of industrial products using agro-industrial residues as substrates The biotechnological potential of agro-industrial residues for bioprocesses Enzymes degrading agro-industrial residues and their production Bioconversion of agro-industrial residues. Written by experts in Biotechnological processing of Agro-Industrial Residues, this book will provide useful information for academic researchers and industry scientists working in biotechnology, waste management, agriculture and the food industry.

The use of shallow wells, equipped with small pumps, to lift groundwater has spread rapidly in many agricultural regions of tropical monsoonal Asia. In Sri Lanka, the rapid and pervasive invasion of agro-wells and pumps drew the attention of policymakers and researchers, but many questions were left unanswered due to lack of research in the area. This study aims to fill this gap in knowledge, based on observations and data obtained in field surveys conducted in major and minor irrigation schemes in the dry zone of Sri Lanka. This report gives the key findings of this study into the pattern, extent and causes of the spread and use of agro-wells and pumps in traditional villages and irrigated settlement schemes. It investigates farmer investments in agro-wells and pumps, the private internal rate of return to these investments, the economic viability of investments and incentives for farmers to make investments.

Agriculture is the dominant primary economic activity in every nook and corner of the developing world. It has great potential for those, who are interested in the spatial distribution of agricultural system. Now the major trust of agriculture geography is on the description, interpretation and explanation of spatial variations of land use, cropping pattern, crop combination, agricultural productivity, agricultural realisation and regional inequalities in agricultural efficiency with the set objective to formulate strategies for the planning and development of agriculture, agro industry and backward areas of the world as well as India. Important Features • Documented with five dozen figures and tables. • Matter is placed in scientific and logical manner. • Subject matter related to agricultural based areas dealt in general and Vaishali region in particular. • Review of the literature, conceptual word and theme related to geography as well as agricultural geography and backward developing areas have been comprehensively explained and placed thoroughly. • It has been elaborates that how backward and developing areas' regional development and agro industrial activities relates and correlates each other and how positive correlation possible between these two aspect ? • Structure of agro industrial activities in a backward area and local participation in these activities is important for the development of a backward or developing area or a region. Which system should apply? It has explained enlarge in the reference of agricultural characteristics of Vaishali. • Potentiality of local agricultural resources examined very well, on which every developmental system depends. • It has been found that without the development of infrastructural network, agro industrial and backward as well as developing area development has never been possible either in third-world countries or developing countries. So in the concluding remarks it has been answered that which type of infrastructural network is necessary for the development of an agro based backward areas.

This volume collects and presents the fundamentals, tools, and processes of utilizing geospatial information technologies to process remotely sensed data for use in agricultural monitoring and management. The issues related to handling digital agro-geoinformation, such as collecting (including field visits and remote sensing), processing, storing, archiving, preservation, retrieving, transmitting, accessing, visualization, analyzing, synthesizing, presenting, and disseminating agro-geoinformation have never before been systematically documented in one volume. The book is edited by International Conference on Agro-Geoinformatics organizers Dr. Liping Di (George Mason University), who coined the term “Agro-Geoinformatics” in 2012, and Dr. Berk Üstündağ (Istanbul Technical University) and are uniquely positioned to curate and edit this foundational text. The book is composed of eighteen chapters that can each stand alone but also build on each other to give the reader a comprehensive understanding of agro-geoinformatics and what the tools and processes that compose the field can accomplish. Topics covered include land parcel identification, image processing in agricultural observation systems, databasing and managing agricultural data, crop status monitoring, moisture and evapotranspiration assessment, flood damage monitoring, agricultural decision support systems and more.
