Description

"Plant Growth-Promoting Bacteria (PGPB): Enhancing Growth and Sustainability" provides an in-depth exploration of how beneficial bacteria revolutionize modern agriculture and environmental stewardship. This book bridges science and practice, offering a holistic understanding of PGPB—from their fundamental roles in nutrient cycling and stress tolerance to their real-world applications in sustainable farming, bioremediation, and climate resilience.

Structured into six parts, the book begins with foundational concepts, detailing the mechanisms by which PGPB enhance plant growth and soil health. It then highlights their environmental benefits, including carbon sequestration, pollution degradation, and ecosystem restoration. Practical sections delve into agricultural applications, from boosting crop yields to commercial biofertilizer production, while addressing challenges like field variability and public acceptance.

This book offers unique features including real-world global case studies, a practical DIY guide for farmers, and in-depth discussions on policy and economic impacts. By combining the latest scientific research with hands-on advice, it equips researchers, growers, policymakers, and green entrepreneurs to effectively implement plant growth-promoting bacteria. The result is a valuable resource that supports both agricultural productivity and environmental sustainability for a greener future.
