It has been estimated that around 15% of global agricultural
production costs on-farm are energy-related. With heightened
concerns around the sustainability of crop and livestock
production, the agricultural sector must develop and invest in
alternative methods of farming that recoup the same results but
have a reduced environmental impact. Energy-smart farming:
Efficiency, renewable energy and sustainability reviews recent
research undertaken on the ways of reducing the costs and
environmental impact of on-farm energy use. The collection explores
advances in improving energy efficiency on farms, renewable energy
technologies such as agrivoltaics, biomass combustion, gasification
and pyrolysis, as well as how more sustainable energy use can be
delivered in practice in livestock production systems. Edited by a
leading expert in the field, Energy-smart farming: Efficiency,
renewable energy and sustainability will be a standard reference
for university and other researchers in renewable energy deployment
and policies, environmental scientists, government and other
agencies tackling the challenge of climate change, as well as
farmers and representatives from food manufacturers and suppliers
dedicated to reducing their carbon footprint.
