The cause of increasing the practice of sustainable and organic farming has found much strength in the global concern for maintaining environmental balance, reducing pollution, and increasing food quantity and quality. In such a scenario, biotechnology with its use of biological agents for industrial or manufacturing purposes such as through genetic engineering, offers a pertinent solution in conjunction with sustainable and organic farming. The present book aims to delineate for the readers the role of biotechnology in enhancing sustainable and organic farming. It analyses and makes assessment of the scope and potential of the field especially as the use of both sustainable and organic farming increases and biotechnology itself advances to new levels. In addition, the text incorporates current trends and developments in the field, especially those which are pertinent to sustainable organic farming. Critical perspectives have been included, which look into the future prospects.
