In Agriculture Toward Net Zero Emissions, 1st Edition, editors Sandeep Kumar and Ram Swaroop Meena address the historical contribution of agricultural practices to global carbon emissions. Published by Academic Press, this publication synthesizes integrated operational approaches designed to lower greenhouse emissions while directly supporting international progress toward established COP26 climate goals.

The text provides technical updates focused on carbon neutral farming, long-term agroecosystem management, and carbon and energy management practices. By connecting field-level resource allocation with broader environmental accounting, the volume details systematic pathways for evaluating, monitoring, and mitigating gas releases across varied food production systems.

Spanning 476 pages, this volume offers structured guidance for agricultural scientists seeking actionable strategies to lower carbon footprints. It also delivers technical background for advanced researchers and post-graduate students working across agriculture, environmental science, horticulture, and plant biology who require grounded analysis of sustainable production.
