Cover Cropping for Vegetable Production
Author: Richard Smith (University of California Cooperative Extension Advisor)
Publisher: University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources
ISBN: 1601076797
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 99
Book Description
The handbook describes primary cover crop species, including grasses, legumes, mustards and other cool-season and warm-season options. Photos, seeding details, winter vigor descriptions, nitrogen fixation and scavenging, weed suppression and nematode resistance are included for each species. In addition to assisting with crop selection, this handbook addresses the effects of cover cropping on water management, pest management and farm economics.

Fundamentals Of Vegetable Crop Production
Author: B. Nair
Publisher: Scientific Publishers
ISBN: 9386237350
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
The book discusses and covers all the basics of vegetable production in a precise manner. The latest area, production and recent scenario of vegetables in the world market are also detailed. It covers nearly all the aspects of vegetables starting from the classification, nitty-gritty, detailed agronomic practices to the harvest, storage and vale addition. The role of various nutrients along with their deficiency symptoms is included in the book. The major weeds, pests and diseases as well as their management is discribed in the book. The book can be very useful for the students of graduate level, post graduate level, doctorate level and for preparing various competitive examinations.

Quantitative and Qualitative Measures of Fruit and Vegetable Production in the Genesee Valley
Fruit and vegetables
Author: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Publisher: Food & Agriculture Org.
ISBN: 9251342385
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
This book will convince the reader to care about fruit and vegetables and to see that the small-scale production of these crops is fundamental to achieving sustainable development goals. In five chapters, the reader will learn about the challenges and rewards for producers, sellers, and consumers. Chapter 1: a working definition for fruit and vegetables, making the case for supporting small-scale farmers and value chains. Chapter 2: options for farm management to ensure that production is sustainable including genetic resources, seed systems, management of water, soil, nutrients, and control of pests and diseases. Chapter 3: options to integrate small-scale commercial fruit and vegetable farmers into socially inclusive value chains, including innovative post-harvest handling services, market linkages, and reducing food loss and waste. Chapter 4: options for practitioners and policymakers at different governmental, institutional and social levels to promote the sustainable production and consumption of safe, nutritious, and affordable fruit and vegetables. Chapter 5: key interventions and innovations to facilitate the sustainable production of fruit and vegetables in low- and middle-income countries across the world. This publication takes readers on a journey introducing them to a diverse array of fruit and vegetables through colorfully illustrated studies from around the world. It justifies the importance of these crops and it encourages readers to take an active role both in promoting fruit and vegetable production and in encouraging more people to eat them.

Advances in Research on Fertilization Management of Vegetable Crops
Author: Francesco Tei
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319536265
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
This book is a review of the recent literature on the key scientific and technical subjects of fertilization management in vegetable crops. In the last decades, research on fertilization management in vegetables was aimed at producing economical yields with reduced fertilizer inputs by the development and implementation of cropping systems, nutrient management approaches and crop varieties. Examples of the interventions in cropping systems included adequate crop rotations, inter-cropping, double cropping, and other strategies for a better soil organic matter management; nutrient management approaches included modelling, Decision Support Systems, crop nutritional status testing and precision agriculture technologies; amelioration of crop varieties has been directed toward higher nutrient/fertilizer use efficiency.
