Massively increasing food production is one of the most urgent scientific projects in the modern world, particularly as a changing climate places increasing pressure on the global food supply and on sustainable food production processes. Biofortification is a process in which plant breeding, improved agronomic practices, and\/or modern biotechnology are employed to increase nutrient density of crops without sacrificing any of their desirable characteristics. It’s an essential tool in the global fight against hunger. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCrop Biofortification\u003c\/i\u003e offers an up-to-the-minute overview of this essential subject and its recent advances. It covers all the latest methodologies and techniques deployed in biofortification, as well as surveying plant responses to genetically induced biofortification and the effect of climate change on biofortified crops. Designed to allow for the application of these techniques at the field level, it’s a significant contribution towards the search for a sustainable global food supply. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCrop Biofortification\u003c\/i\u003e readers will also find: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresentation of recent advances in omics, particularly metabolomics, which can decipher potential changes in plants caused by biofortification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed discussion of methods for increasing the nutritional content of edible plants to address specific nutritional deficiencies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContributions towards a road map for increasing global food production by 70% before the year 2050\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCrop Biofortification\u003c\/i\u003e is ideal for researchers, policymakers, and professionals interested in the potential biofortification of crop plants, as well as graduate and advanced undergraduate students in agronomy, plant physiology, plant breeding and genetics, agricultural biotechnology, and related fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAdnan Noor Shah,\u003c\/b\u003e is Assistant Professor in the Department of Agricultural Engineering, Khwaja Fareed University of Engineering and Information Technology, Punjab, Pakistan.
