Farmers have always played a significant role in our society as they provide the worlds population with food. However, one may forget that, not only do they provide food but they also provide energy, which nowadays, is of paramount importance, especially as in light of renewable energies. Indeed, farmers can produce energy from the wind, the sun or the biomass and they can use it for their own farm, or, if they have a surplus, resell it to companies. In many rural areas, particularly in developing and emerging countries, the access to the electricity grid is not always assured. In this situation, farmers cannot depend on the traditional irrigation system. As a result, using an independent and alternative energy system can be a solution for the farmer to secure a safe power source and for the public grid to avoid saturation. Solar energy might be one of the easiest ways for farmers to produce energy. This book examines the potential of solar energy and other evolving energy technologies in micro irrigation to create sustainable energy sources. It discusses various innovative micro irrigation system designs, with a special emphasis on solar energy and photovoltaic (PV) energy. It also deliberates nutrient management through drip irrigation to improve yield and quality of crops. This text will be of valuable information tool for those working in urban development, energy professionals, advanced graduate students, as well as researchers and practitioners. These days, R&D tends to emphasis on generating solar pumps that are inexpensive in arid regions. Therefore, in countries which suffer from high temperatures and rare water resources, the drip irrigation system could contribute to an efficient water management. This is all the more important as farmers have to face three challenges: save water, money and energy. Although these systems are still quite expensive and complicated to settle, many R&D projects are working on the democratization of the use of solar power in agriculture, which, in the prospect (and even today), could play a vibrant part in the management of the food and energy emergency.

The agri-food chain consumes about one third of the world’s energy production with about 12% of it for crop production and nearly 80% for processing, distribution, retail, preparation and cooking. The agri-food chain also accounts for 80-90% of total global freshwater use where 70% alone is for irrigation. Additionally, on a global scale, freshwater production consumes nearly 15% of the entire energy production. It can therefore be argued that making agriculture and the agri-food supply chain independent from fossil fuel use has a huge potential to contribute to global food security and climate protection not only for the next decades but also for the coming century. Provision of secure, accessible and environmentally sustainable supplies of water, energy and food must thus be a priority. One of the major objectives of the world’s scientists, farmers, decisions makers and industrialists is to overcome the present dependence on fossil fuels in the agro-food sector. This dependency increases the volatility of food prices and affects economic access to sustenance. This book provides a critical review of recent developments in solar, wind and geothermal energy applications in agriculture and the agro-food sector such as processing, distribution, retail, preparation and cooking.
