This book discusses and addresses the rapidly increasing world
population demand for food, which is expected to double by 2050. To
meet these demands farmers will need to improve crop productivity,
which relies heavily on nitrogen (N) fertilization. Production of N
fertilizers, however, consumes huge amounts of energy and the loss
of excess N fertilizers to leaching results in the pollution of
waterways and oceans. Therefore, increasing plant nitrogen use
efficiency (NUE) is essential to help farmers produce more while
conserving the environment. This book assembles some of the best
work of top researchers from academic and industrial institutions
in the area of NUE and provides valuable insight to scholars and
researchers by its comprehensive discussion of current and future
strategies to improve NUE through genetic manipulation. This book
should also be highly valuable to policy makers, environmentalists,
farmers, biotechnology executives, and to the hard-core researchers
working in the lab.
