ID 21 The Intersection of Agribiotechnology and Aquaculture Ecology: New Frontiers for Sustainable Aquatic Systems

D.K. Meena, Binod Choudhury, Kanti Meena, Sachin Khiarnar, Jham Lal, Pronob Das

Background

The book, "The Intersection of Agribiotechnology and Aquaculture Ecology: New Frontiers for Sustainable Aquatic Systems," promises to be a seminal work that delves into the uncharted territories of this intersection, illuminating the vast potential for innovation and collaboration. As we embark on this intellectual journey, let us first define the scope of this book. Agribiotechnology, a field that combines agricultural practices with biotechnological tools, has revolutionized the way we approach crop and animal production. Aquaculture Ecology, on the other hand, focuses on the interactions between aquatic organisms and their environment, with a emphasis on sustainable management practices. The intersection of these two fields holds tremendous promise for addressing some of the most pressing challenges facing our planet, including food security, environmental degradation, and climate change.
