Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The growth of the world's population requires better use of resources in all production sectors and, in agricultural activities, the possibility of using by-products would be one of the best strategies to produce food, generate income, and reduce the consumption of non-infinite environmental resources. Therefore, the aim of this Special Issue is to collect original research or systematic reviews that address the possibilities of using by-products or sustainable technologies and strategies to improve the performance of agricultural and forestry activities, especially in degraded land and low-fertility agro-systems.
