In the book entitled “Recent Advances in IFS” attempt has been made to give the logistics of research technologies along with the allied enterprises of the observations. I am sure, this book will be very useful to the facilitators of field experiments in farming systems. I hope, this book will provide necessary guidelines to the scientists, research workers, students, government staffs and NGOs working in the field of agriculture.

Dr. S. Krishnaprabu, is graduated in B.Sc. (Agriculture)from Agricultural College and Research Institute, Madurai, Tamil Nadu, where he did his M.Sc. (Ag.) in 2002.
