Production Technology of Drumstick (Moringa oleifera Lamk.)
Moringa/drumstick (Moringa oleifera Lam.) is a versatile tree vegetable crop, long neglected and rediscovered in recent times. It is indigenous to North India but gained firm foot hold in South India. Much of the information on production technology of drumstick was generated in South India. Many varieties were developed in South India. Its area under commercial cultivation has increased much during the past 30 years particularly after the release of annual types like PKM-1 and PKM-2 from Tamil Nadu. However there is no comprehensive book on drumstick production technology in India including all the accumulated information at one place. This has long been felt as a lacuna. This book "Production Technology of Drumstick (Moringa oleifera Lam) fulfils the long felt need of the book. It covers various aspects of production technology gathered from different sources and is presented in a simple and comprehensive manner. The information presented in this book will be quite useful for students, teachers, researchers and finally and principally to the enthusiastic moringa farmers and those farmers who intend to take up moringa farming in future.

High Plains Horticulture
High Plains Horticulture explores the significant, civilizing role that horticulture has played in the development of farmsteads and rural and urban communities on the High Plains portions of Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wyoming, drawing on both the science and the application of science practiced since 1840. Freeman explores early efforts to supplement native and imported foodstuffs, state and local encouragement to plant trees, the practice of horticulture at the Union Colony of Greeley, the pioneering activities of economic botanists Charles Bessey (in Nebraska) and Aven Nelson (in Wyoming), and the shift from food production to community beautification as the High Plains were permanently settled and became more urbanized. In approaching the history of horticulture from the perspective of local and unofficial history, Freeman pays tribute to the tempered idealism, learned pragmatism, and perseverance of individuals from all walks of life seeking to create livable places out of the vast, seemingly inhospitable High Plains. He also suggests that, slowly but surely, those that inhabit them have been learning to adjust to the limits of that fragile land. High Plains Horticulture will appeal to not only scientists and professionals but also gardening enthusiasts interested in the history of their hobby on the High Plains.
Popular uses and industrial applications of castor oil
The castor bean tree is a plant that produces oilseeds and is of Asian origin. Its ease of adaptation has allowed it to be cultivated in Brazil. This book aims to present a review of the literature on castor bean oil (Ricinus communis L.) and various aspects relating to the use of Ricinus oil and its properties. Castor oil has been used in various activities such as: biofuel production, biotechnology, medicine and ethnobotany, among others. This raw material can be used to generate many products, which is why castor oil reaches a significant range of industries, from relatively simple products to sophisticated ones. Castor oil can be used in a versatile way, for example to treat stomatitis, to disinfect dental prostheses for anti-inflammatory purposes, to insulate or waterproof roofs and buildings, and it can also be used as a biofuel. Embark on this read full of technological applications and popular knowledge and expand your knowledge of this impressive vegetable oil.
Instant Insights: Improving the Shelf Life of Horticultural Produce
This collection features four peer-reviewed reviews on improving the shelf life of horticultural produce. The first chapter introduces the concept of smart distribution and highlights how optimising the management of produce distribution systems can reduce loss and waste in the horticultural sector and extend shelf life by minimising quality deterioration. The chapter also discusses the use of remote sensing technology to determine food quality. The second chapter reviews a selection of pre- and postharvest strategies used to optimise fruit quality. The chapter considers ways of measuring harvest maturity, as well as the role of temperature controlled environments in extending the shelf life of tree fruit. The third chapter summarises the wealth of recent research on the preservation of fruit quality in mango production, as well as how postharvest operations can be optimised to reduce loss and waste and maximise shelf life, including the use of controlled environments, waxes and edible coatings. The final chapter explores the advantages and disadvantages of cultivating ripening-impaired tomato mutants and genetically engineered genotypes characterized by inhibition of the ripening process. The chapter considers the use of ethylene inhibitors and controlled environments as a means of mitigating devastating yield losses.
Flamboyant Blooming Trees
This book on flowering trees of the tropics displays the visual quality of trees and is intended to draw the attention of the common urban dweller to the beauty and majesty of the perennial flora, that dot the cities and country side. It is meant to make the passers by, aware of and make them stop by for a while and admire the beautiful creations of nature. The book contains in right proportion the interplay of pictures and explanations, adequate enough to titillate one's interest in trees and simultaneously satiate his curiosity to know more about the species. At a time when the growing population is rendering dense our habitations, and the climate change is only compounding the challenge, every citizen would do well to contribute to make a positive change. The book "Flambouyant Blooming Trees" contributes to such a need by generating awareness and interest among the readers vis-a-vis the trees, and enhancing their knowledge to make an informed decision about the right species to choose and plant at a place of their choice.
Seed Invigoration
Seed treatments for extending longevity of dry-stored orthodox seeds and maintenance of vigour and viability of seed lots and field performance potential of crops have been covered for commercial adaptation by the predominantly small and marginal farmers. The research findings are based on development of seed hydration-dehydration as well as 'dry' (non-aqueous) seed treatments in the University of Calcutta during the last over four decades involving a large number of post-graduate students, pre-and post-doctoral fellows and faculty members.
Efficiency of Vegetable Marketing
The sun shines for a country, if smile appears in the farmers' face, a hard truth for the country like India. So many administrators and decision makers have been replaced the seat of path-finder in the above regard, but it has not clearly been shown till date that which path leads to farmers' smile? So many mechanisms and machineries has developed to address the issue of farmers in India. Most of the time these mechanisms are uni-dimensional in nature i.e., either from the farmers' angle or from the customers' view point. Rarely both of the dimensions have been integrated to shine the India with greenery scene, which is the main contribution of this research work being published as the book entitled "Efficiency of vegetable marketing: A study with the role of RMC". The above said path has been suggested in this book (research results) in the form of 'consumers positive orientation to words the vegetable shopping' and 'farmers-cum-businessmen happiness in their current profession' with the critical role of RMC (Regulated market Committee) keeping in view the vegetable products. The underlying factors of the above two dimensions, if can be integrated strategically, then the sun for India can really shine, as found out in the present research . On the context this book will be helpful not only for the researchers and academicians but also for the decision makers, planners and strategists in Indian sub-continent.
Atlas of Root Drugs from Ayurveda
This Atlas is a compilation of fifty Ayurvedic medicinal plants yielding valuable root drugs, meticulously compiled to cater the needs of academia, researchers and herbal drug industry. The present work embodies a practical approach for addressing the challenges of quality raw material (QRM) and can be assured by botanical and chemical standards established with the aid of conventional and modern tools. It is an attempt to raise awareness about QRM among all the stakeholders in academia and industry, in the current scenario of increased demand of herbal drugs at a global level. The "Atlas of root drugs from Ayurveda" would serve as a reference for the scientists and researchers of Botany, Pharmacy and Chemistry, as well as farmers and pharmaceutical industries.
Guava
This book has been prepared primarily as a text for raising of quality planting material of guava through vegetative propagation. Practices followed in the propagation of guava are presented in detail which clearly showed the effect of different propagation methods i.e. cutting, layering, patch budding and wedge grafting on different parameters of vegetative growth is also discussed in the book. It is hoped that scientific and technical information available in this book will be useful for orchardists, field functionaries and researchers for accomplishing the goal of enhanced quality fruit production and productivity.
