It emphasizes the real-world applications of these insights and offers strategies to adapt to and mitigate the effects of climate change on agriculture. This comprehensive work discusses the impacts of changing climate conditions on diverse cropping practices, identifies challenges, and proposes effective mitigation strategies. It aims to develop resilient, adaptive cropping systems to ensure food security for a growing global population.

Sustainable Cropping Systems under a Changing Climate

Advances in Edible Packaging Systems for Food Preservation discusses the edible packaging systems available for the preservation of all types of foods and products derived from meat, eggs, milk, plants, cereals, fish, and seafood. Divided in 14 chapters, the book covers recent topics related to edible packaging such as the role of emerging technologies (such as cold plasma, ultrasonication, electrospinning, high-pressure, 3D printing, and pulsed light), alternative film materials (such as insect, fungal, and algae proteins), novel bioactive agents (such as novel peptides and nanoemulsions, nanoparticles, and nanofibers from novel sources), engineering aspects, environmental impacts and consumer perception. This book caters to a wider audience including, but not limited to, individuals involved in food science, meat science, dairy science, food packaging, agriculture sciences, protein and carbohydrate biochemistry, and nutrition.

Anthropology of Food & Nutrition

In presenting a variety of theoretical and cross-cultural perspectives on pure food, this volume demonstrates similarities and variations in cultural beliefs, behaviours and practices in different societies. These in turn highlight that pure food is a common issue for humanity, whatever the society, whatever the era. As a subject with much contemporary and cross-disciplinary relevance, Pure Food will appeal to students and academics involved in any food-related discipline, to professional practitioners promoting healthier foods and nutrition and to general readers with an interest in food.
