Book Description
Agricultural Involution: The Processes of Ecological Change in Indonesia is one of the most famous of the early works of Clifford Geertz. It principal thesis is that many centuries of intensifying wet-rice cultivation in Indonesia had produced greater social complexity without significant technological or political change, a process Geertz terms "involution". Written for a US-funded project on the local developments and following the modernization theory of Walt Whitman Rostow, Geertz examines in this book the agricultural system in Indonesia and its two dominant forms of agriculture, swidden and sawah. In addition to researching its agricultural systems, the book turns to an examination of their historical development. Of particular note is Geertz's discussion of what he famously describes as the process of "agricultural involution" in Java, where both the external economic demands of the Dutch rulers and the internal pressures due to population growth led to intensification rather than change.
Vanilla
Author: Eric OdouxPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1420083384
Category : Science

Pages : 402
Book Description
Cultivated in an increasing number of countries, vanilla is a universally appreciated flavor that is consumed worldwide. However, most users are unaware of the plant from which the product comes. This book presents up-to-date reviews on the cultivation, curing, and uses of vanilla. The latest scientific data provides information on genetic status, resources, pests, diseases, cultural practices, biosynthesis of aromatic compounds, and aroma development. Leading contributors from around the world examine emergent countries for vanilla production, including China, India and Uganda. The text also explores the relationship between fruit development anatomy and flavor quality.

Pests and Pollinators of Vegetable and Oilseed Crops
Author: Dharam P. AbrolPublisher: Scientific Publishers
ISBN: 9388172337
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 517
Book Description
Pest management for vegetable crops and safety provision for the pollinators is a challenging task in the context to increase vegetable productivity without upsetting the ecological balance. The book Pests and Pollinators of Vegetable and Oilseed Crops aims to integrate and develop pest control strategies by minimizing their impact on beneficial insect species such as natural enemies and pollinators for enhancing fruit production and quality. A detailed account is provided on pests and pollinators of oilseed crops such as Cruciferous, Solanaceous, Umbelliferous, Cucurbitaceous, Malvaceous, Leguminous and Alliaceae. The compilation of this book is unique as it does not deal only with the conventional way of pest management for different crops; it takes into consideration the role of pollinators and their profitable utilization in the larger context of ecologically based pest management and safety of pollinators. An exemplary attempt is made to promote a large, diverse, sustainable and dependable bee pollinator workforce that can meet the challenges of optimizing food production in the twenty-first century and beyond.
Microbial Biostimulants
Author: Faheem AhmadPublisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1040036570
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 479
Book Description
This new volume explores the field of microbial biostimulants, a new and emerging field of plant study that emphasizes the benefit of microbes for plants. Microbial biostimulants can have a positive influence on plant health and growth, enhancing agricultural yield and improving resistance to negative environmental changes with zero harmful discharges. This book, Microbial Biostimulants: Biorational Pesticides for Management of Plant Pathogens, explores how microbial-based biopesticides can be used for managing pests and plant diseases as well as for the promotion of growth. It looks at the advantages of employing microbial biostimulants over other pest and disease control methods. It also looks at the application of microbial biostimulants as a response to the modern agricultural need for increased productivity and plant health. This book brings together an extensive collection of information on beneficial microorganisms, including newly introduced microorganisms, their biological activities and specificity, resistance mechanisms to pests, formulation, application in agricultural practices, etc. Key features: Provides a roadmap for using microbial biostimulant practices for pest and disease control as a sustainable approach in agriculture Covers the essential aspects of biorational lines for crop stress management Looks at the use of microbial biostimulants for management of specific diseases, including root-knot disease, various soil-borne diseases, etc. Considers the role of rhizobacteria in plant disease management Microbial Biostimulants: Biorational Pesticides for Management of Plant Pathogens will be extremely useful for students, academicians, researchers, and policymakers in the field of food security and diverse disciplines of agricultural sciences.
