Sustainable agriculture is a rapidly growing field aiming at producing food and energy in a
sustainable way for humans and their children. Sustainable agriculture is a discipline that
addresses current issues such as climate change, increasing food and fuel prices, poor-nation
starvation, rich-nation obesity, water pollution, soil erosion, fertility loss, pest control, and
biodiversity depletion.
Novel, environmentally-friendly solutions are proposed based on integrated knowledge
from sciences as diverse as agronomy, soil science, molecular biology, chemistry, toxicology,
ecology, economy, and social sciences. Indeed, sustainable agriculture decipher mechanisms
of processes that occur from the molecular level to the farming system to the global level at
time scales ranging from seconds to centuries. For that, scientists use the system approach
that involves studying components and interactions of a whole system to address scientific,
economic and social issues. In that respect, sustainable agriculture is not a classical, narrow
science. Instead of solving problems using the classical painkiller approach that treats only
negative impacts, sustainable agriculture treats problem sources.
Because most actual society issues are now intertwined, global, and fast-developing,
sustainable agriculture will bring solutions to build a safer world. This book series gathers
review articles that analyze current agricultural issues and knowledge, then propose
alternative solutions. It will therefore help all scientists, decision-makers, professors, farmers
and politicians who wish to build a safe agriculture, energy and food system for future
generations.
