The book delves into the research and advancements in agricultural biosystem development, bioprocess, and bioproducts. It takes an integrative approach by combining agronomical practices and agricultural engineering to address the challenges in these areas. The adoption of technology in the agricultural sector is crucial for ensuring food security and alleviating poverty, which are key themes of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN-SDGs). Researchers and engineers are expected to tackle various challenges and introduce innovative techniques, frameworks, and instruments that promote sustainable agriculture and food security. Globally, agricultural mechanization and modernization can be achieved through advancements in agricultural engineering technologies and their applications. Key areas of progress include agricultural automation and robotics, precision agriculture, high-efficiency irrigation systems, farm energy systems, handling and processing of agricultural products, livestock and poultry management, farm water and wastewater management, biomass utilization, remote sensing and geographical studies, and the intersection of society and agriculture, along with the associated bio-environment. The technological advancements in agricultural engineering described in this book cater to the needs of the 21st century, particularly in the context of the agricultural water-energy-food security nexus. Authored by an international team, the book covers various topics such as energy systems, information technology, sensors and control systems, machinery systems, natural resources and environmental systems, plant and animal systems, facility systems, and processing systems. By offering valuable insights and knowledge from diverse disciplines, this book serves as a resource for academia, engineers, technologists, and users seeking a comprehensive understanding of the multidimensional field of biosystems engineering.
