Beschreibung

Sustainable agriculture is a complex issue associated with producing food while maintaining our biophysical resources including soil, water and biota with no adverse impact on the wider environment. This calls for adequate and timely research investigations to unravel the issues as regards its achievement so as to maintain our day to day activities without jeopardizing the need of the future generation. This study was therefore undertaken to analyze the sustainable cultivation practices followed by sugarcane growers. The ex post facto research design was used for the study. The knowledge level of growers about sustainable cultivation practices in sugarcane was measured by developing a teacher made test. Sustainable technology index was used to measure extent of adoption of sustainable techniques practiced by sugarcane growers. The statistical tool such as frequency distribution, mean & standard deviation, correlation, as well as step down multiple regressions was employed to analyze the data collected. This book however reports the outcome of the analysis which will be helpful in clarifying complex practical issues in sustainable cultivation practices.
