The International Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge, Science and Technology for Development (IAASTD) was a three-year international collaborative effort (2005–2007) initiated by the World Bank in 2002, which evaluated the relevance, quality and effectiveness of agricultural knowledge, science, and technology, and the effectiveness of public and private sector policies and institutional ...
Science and technology in Asia is varied depending on the country and time. [1] In the past, among Asian civilizations considered particularly notable for their contributions to science and technology were India , China and the West Asian civilizations. [ 2 ]
The field has a long history in India that goes back to the late 1970s, with the works of Damodar Dharmananda Kosambi, Irfan Habib, J.P.S. Uberoi, [1] [2] Ashis Nandy, [3] [4] Vandana Shiva, [5] Claude Alvares [6] [7] and Shiv Visvanathan [8] [9] However, there is a first generation of scholars from the 1970s who looked at science and technology (and not from the purview of post-Kuhnian STS ...
Agricultural chemistry encompases the science and technology of producing not only edible crops, but feedstocks for fuels ("biofuels") and materials. Ethanol fuel obtained by fermentation of sugars. Biodiesel is derived from fats, both animal- and plant-derived. Methane can be recovered from manure and other ag wastes by microbial action.
Farmers have manipulated plants and animals through selective breeding for decades of thousands of years in order to create desired traits. In the 20th century, a surge in technology resulted in an increase in agricultural biotechnology through the selection of traits like the increased yield, pest resistance, drought resistance, and herbicide resistance.
