Agronomy of Pulse Crops

This book focuses on improving the productivity of pulse crops, which are vital for meeting global protein demands and enhancing soil health. Pulses contribute significantly to biological nitrogen fixation, improving soil fertility and organic carbon content. However, improper management practices have led to declining yields. Through a review of current agricultural literature, the author presents improved management practices for pulses, including the adoption of high-yielding varieties, effective fertilization, irrigation techniques, and crop protection methods. Aimed at agriculture professionals and researchers, this book offers practical solutions for boosting pulse productivity and sustainability in farming systems.
