This book is about moving from ‘Know How’ to ‘Do How’  and  brings about rich experience in industrial research and farm scale demonstrations in different parts of the world to  show the practical aspects of Eco Agriculture.  The first edition was well received by practicing farmers, scientists and planners and now the  second updated edition includes recent developments and field trials and success stories.  Theory and practice and recent developments in the areas of Bio Fertilizers, Bio Pesticides, and Bio Composts form important base for Eco Agriculture practices.  The global scenario of industrial development and future trends are discussed with much authority because of the extensive experience of the Author.  

The Sustainable Development Goals endorsed by the United Nations, put great emphasis on moving away from heavy input agricultural system to more eco-friendly and balanced farming.  Eco Agriculture or Agro Ecology is the approach capable of producing enough food and accessible food without harming the environment.
