Azospirillum sp. endophytic microorganisms arbuscular mycorrhiza Chaetomium sp. and bioactive secondary metabolites in organic farming practices. Section II explores the potential applications of organic amendments and sustainable practices for plant growth and soil health using garlic products organic substrates biochar organic mulching and tillage and weed management. In addition Section III summarizes the impacts and prospects of organic crop production technology on health food safety and quality. The authors bring together important information that will be helpful in designing organic farming methods for soil sustainability and crop productivity as well as for nutritious food produced efficiently and cost productively. The book provides valuable insight to efficiently and cost-effectively use natural and available resources to increase the nutrient content of our food as well as to manage the organic wastes coming from other sectors such as from cattle farms without polluting the surroundings.
