Agropotentiality Assessment: Impact of Combined Brewery–Distillery Effluent (CBDE) on Tagetes erecta L. var. Pusa Basanti

Use of industrial wastewaters as an auxiliary irrigation system is an option that is increasingly being investigated owing to mounting demands for water supply. However, improper disposal of these effluents may cause land degradation. As a sequel to the recent trend of plant biology research on environmental stress, plenty of knowledge about the plant-effluent relationship has been generated. This treatise is a compilation of different aspects vis-à-vis the impact of combined brewery-distillery effluent (CBDE) on various attributes of Tagetes erecta L. Concurrently; it also highlights the less focused areas like the physicochemical analysis of post-harvest soil. This book presents an economic and viable foundation for the use of industrial effluent in agriculture which can be a part of comprehensive planning for efficient and sustainable industrial wastewater management. It is worth reading for the agriculturists and environmentalists, interested in designing innovative agro-based technologies. This book can be of immense use for the students of bio-sciences to carry out further advanced studies in this field.
