This has been made possible due to the widespread use of machines such as tractors along with harvesters as well as use of agrochemicals like fertilizers and pesticides. It also makes use of various scientific fields and processes such as genetic engineering and mutation breeding to modify crops. Genetic material is altered by a technique known as recombinant DNA technology. Mutation breeding, also known as variation breeding, exposes the seeds to radiation and chemicals to produce mutant plants with desirable characteristics. Modern technological advances have led to increased durability, insect and virus resistance, nutritional content and herbicide tolerance in agricultural production. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to agricultural production. The aim of this book is to present researches that have transformed this field and aided its advancement. It will provide comprehensive knowledge to the readers.
