Handbook of Research on Principles and Practices for Orchards Management

As orchards are faced with different challenges such as production and the growing global population, there is a need to update and understand the principles and practices for successful orchard management to increase food productivity. The economics of cultivation, irrigated agriculture, and smart agriculture are important topics in precision agriculture that relate to these various challenges and must be studied further. Additionally, technologies have played a key role in promoting the development of orchards and new strategies have led to substantial improvements in fruit productivity and quality. These strategies and technologies must also be considered in order to ensure a successful future for orchard management. The Handbook of Research on Principles and Practices for Orchards Management aims to improve fruit orchards' productivity by exploring the latest practical research findings in the area and considers the new techniques in various agricultural management practices to improve the growth and productivity of fruit orchards under different biotic and abiotic stresses. Covering topics such as nutrient management, pest control, orchard pruning, and magnetic water, this reference work is ideal for industry professionals, researchers, practitioners, scholars, academicians, instructors, and students.
