The Bio-Integrated Farm is a must-read, twenty-first- century manual for managing these natural resources and brings system farming and permaculture to a whole new level. Currently farmers working hard to improve their income in crop production and overcome shortage of labourers. The interdependency of the two or more jobs at the same place on the same farm, combined with the activity in integrated farming project will probably be integrated farming system. The promotion of organic farming system with implementation of IPM tools has been proven to work well in reducing the economic injuries from pests and diseases which farmers experience while also producing healthier plant yields during harvest. The integrated bio-systems approach is a multi-purpose tool that can improve resource utilization and minimize external inputs in production processes, strengthen the local economies for food production, enable productive solid and liquid waste management as well as create sustainable livelihoods and communities. In this book an effort has been made to present the detailed information about the integrated farming system concept principles components, model development and their usefulness to the farm household. We hope that the book would prove to be useful to the students, researchers, planners, farmers and other stakeholders. Less
