Biodiversity and Sustainable Agriculture : Shree Publishers & Distributors : 9788183293990 : 01 Jan 2010 : Sustainability of agricultural growth is of prime importance for food security of the ever increasing population. Agricultural biodiversity provides not only food and income but also raw materials for clothing, shelter, medicines, breeding new varieties, and performs other services such as maintenance of soil fertility etc. Predominant patterns of agricultural growth have eroded biodiversity in agro-ecosystems including plant genetic resources, livestock, insects, and soil organisms. Such erosion has caused economic losses, jeopardizing productivity and food security, and leading to broader social costs.
