The government is implying new policies thus affecting the lifestyle and testing the managing capacity of a business person. In our everyday life we deal with the situations where we have make decisions regarding fulfilment of our basic need with available resources. This book entitled 'Advances in Agri-Management' is meant with an aim of enhancing the knowledge of the students and every interested person in the concerned subject matter. The main aim of the publication is to provide the academic fraternity, insights and supports ways in which the business is managed in the growing economies.

In the present work, the authors have endeavored to bring out the information on various characteristics of morphological, taxonomical, economical importance of floriculture and landscaping in glossary format with illustrations and photographs. The book will prove useful to the students and researchers in horticulture, landscapists and botanists as it is for the first time that such information has been placed under a single roof.

Advances in Marine Biology, Volume 84, the latest release in a series that has been providing in-depth and up-to-date reviews on all aspects of marine biology since 1963, updates on many topics that will appeal to postgraduates and researchers in marine biology, fisheries science, ecology, zoology and biological oceanography.

The book provides information in its various chapters on some of the latest aspects of micropropagation, microbiology, biofertilizer, nanotechnology, RNA interference, metabolomics, biosurfactants, secondary metabolites, cancer therapy, biofuel and biostatistics etc. All the chapters have been well compiled with great dedication and sincerity and authors own the authenticity of information available in the book. We hope the book will be useful to large sections of people of diverse occupations including students, researchers, teachers, scientists, planners and policymakers, general readers and intellectuals etc.

The Sounds of Science provides a comprehensive account of a large-scale scientific experiment with globally operating seafood corporations headquartered in North America, Europe, and Asia. It describes how scientists worked to identify these, world’s largest seafood companies, and how their disproportionate powers were mobilized in a coalition of companies called SeaBOS (Seafood Business for Ocean Stewardship), aiming to provide global and science-based industry leadership on ocean stewardship. As invoked by the cover art (Flow, 2020) by world-renowned creative director, Kashiwa Sato, the experiment is creating a small wave of change that sits within a larger wave, supporting and generating larger movements towards improved stewardship of the planet. A new direction for the private sector is emerging, and new priorities are flourishing. The book explores how corporations, guided by science, can be part of the solution to the biosphere challenges. Written in collaboration with international experts on sustainability, ocean ecosystems, fisheries policy, and corporations, this book explores the mechanisms leading to the evolution of cooperation, and the barriers to address in order to engage in collaborative learning, corporate change and novel science. It offers tangible advice to scientists on how to work with the private sector for a better, more sustainable world. The Sounds of Science is an important resource for scientists interested in engaging with the private sector. Corporate leaders and policy makers will find this book useful for understanding, collaborating, and working with the planet to reach global sustainability goals.

Handbook of Food and Feed from Microalgae: Production, Application, Regulation, and Sustainability is a comprehensive resource on all aspects of using microalgae in food and feed. This book covers applied processes, including compounds found in microalgae applicable in food and feed, food products developed with microalgae biomass in the composition, the use of microalgae in animal nutrition, and challenges and recent advances. Written by global leading experts on microalgae, the book's sections discuss the fundamentals of food and feed from microalgae, including its biodiversity, biogeography, genomics, nutritional purposes and compounds found within microalgae like proteins, vitamins and antioxidants. In addition, the book explains the incorporation of microalgae into meat, dairy, beverages and wheat products, as well as in real-world food applications in aquaculture, mollusk, poultry and pet feeding. The last two sections cover challenges and issues such as bioavailability and bio-accessibility and how to address safety, regulatory, market, economics and environment concerns.
