    Fungal-Based Biostimulants and Growth Regulators for Plant Growth and Disease Resistance
    (Apple Academic Press, 2027) Deepak Kumar, Sanjay K. Singh, Vishnu D. Rajput, Deepti Srivastava, Md. Shamim, Raja Husain, Shachi Agrawal
    This chapter reviews the role of fungal-based biostimulants and growth regulators in promoting sustainable agriculture. It discusses the importance of fungi in enhancing nutrient uptake, improving stress tolerance, stimulating plant growth, and inducing disease resistance through bioactive compounds, volatile organic compounds, and secondary metabolites. Various fungal groups such as mycorrhizae, Trichoderma, Aspergillus, Chaetomium, Penicillium, endophytic fungi, and fungal elicitors are discussed with respect to their mechanisms, formulations, regulatory aspects, and applications for improving crop productivity and environmental sustainability.

    Innovations and Future Directions in Sustainable Agriculture
    (Book Rivers, 2025) Sunil Kumar, Aman Verma, Mustfa Hussain
    Sustainable agriculture focuses on meeting present food demands without compromising future generations. Innovations such as precision farming, climate-smart practices, integrated nutrient management, biofertilizers, biopesticides, conservation agriculture, and digital advisory systems have improved productivity and resource efficiency. Technologies like artificial intelligence, remote sensing, renewable energy use, and water-efficient irrigation systems are enhancing resilience to climate change. Future directions emphasize soil health restoration, biodiversity conservation, carbon sequestration, and circular bioeconomy approaches. Strengthening extension services, farmer participation, and supportive policies will accelerate adoption. These advancements aim to build a resilient, eco-friendly, and economically viable agricultural system worldwide.
