The rapidly growing human population has increased the dependence
on fossil fuel-based agrochemicals, such as fertilizers and
pesticides, to produce the required agricultural and forestry
products. This has exerted great pressure on non-renewable fossil
fuel resources, which cannot last indefinitely. Not only do
agrochemicals pollute the environment, but pests also become
resistant to pesticides. Thus, present agricultural practices
exploit natural resources, and damage fauna and flora and
agroecosystems. One safe alternative to overcome these problems is
the use of allelopathy to sustain development in agriculture and
forestry and maintain a clean environment for future generations.
This book is the Proceedings of the III International Congress on
Allelopathy in Ecological Agriculture and Forestry, held on August
18-21, 1998, at the University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad,
Karnataka, India, and provides an updated status of current
allelopathy research in various leading countries, with the overall
aim of developing new technologies for ecological agriculture and
forestry in the 21st century. To date, no book on ecological
agriculture has discussed these aspects, hence it is the first time
that such information is available. The chapter contributors are
leading specialists in their fields, and all chapters have been
peer-reviewed by international referees. This book will be
indispensable for agricultural scientists (agronomists,
entomologists, nematologists, plant pathologists, horticulturists,
plant breeders, agroforesters, foresters, soil scientists),
bioscientists (biochemists, organic chemists, plant ecologists,
microbiologists and limnologists), environmentalists, graduate
students and farmers, as well as for organizations engaged in
sustainable agriculture and organic agriculture.
