Perspective Chapter: Physiological Breeding Approach for Sustainable Smart Farming

Abstract

Smart farming is referred as managing farm efficiently using information and communication techniques to increase the quantity and quality of the product. The basic and fundamental concept of smart farming in agriculture is to exploit yield determinants efficiently so as to attain genotype x environment interaction zero by introgression of trait of interest demanded by the environments. Accordingly, the physiological breeding approach coupled with mega environment concept could be a sustainable smart farming, which could be exploited to fulfill the future food demand. This chapter is conceptualized with scientific information available on potato under India such as low land tropic scenario.
