        Plant Growth Responses for Smart Agriculture Prospects and Applications

        by T. Girija,Nandini K. & Parvathi, M.S.

        Plant Physiology is a field that is constantly evolving and expanding our understanding of fundamental plant processes. The past decade has seen remarkable advancements in the biological sciences due to the introduction of cutting-edge technologies like recombinant DNA techniques, omics approaches, and advanced phenotyping platforms. These innovations have challenged and redefined many previously established concepts in plant life. This publication aims to shed light on lesser-known signals that can affect plant growth and development. A solid foundation in plant physiological processes is essential for research in related fields such as crop improvement, crop production, and crop protection. As the push for sustainable agriculture grows, the information presented in this book can encourage researchers to develop environmentally friendly and non-chemical methods for enhancing crop production, while also harnessing the inherent abilities of plants to improve their performance in the field.

        Agroforestry

        Systems and Prospects

        by C. B. Pandey & O. P. Chaturvedi

        The book includes total 26 chapters; the first 10 describe traditional agroforestry systems found in different parts of our country. Homegardens, having a multi-tire in structure, are another example of traditional agroforestry system found generally in northeast and southern part of our country. 11 to 14 deal with some modern agroforestry models, and mechanism of competitive interaction in found in agroforestry systems. 15 to 19 describes nutrient cycling and natural growth resources conservation by agroforestry systems. Tree has both protective as well as productive role. Tree canopies protect soils from rain beating and wind blowing whereas fine roots bind soil particles together and thereby protect soils from erosion. Trees recycle leaf and root litter and nutrients and make system at least semi-sustainable. Different models of agroforestry like shelterbelt and wind breaks are known to help protect environment from dust and sand dunes drifting; some models like medicinal plant based system that provide medicinal and other high value crops. These service oriented functions of agroforestry are described in 20 to 23. Tree improvement is an important aspect of agroforestry study. It helps develop plus trees for different agroforestry models. Multiplication of propgules and planting materials are equally important for development of agroforestry. These information are provided in s 24 and 25. But, agroforestry systems require much more parameters owing to their perennial nature. The last describes economic parameters like NPV, IRR, annuity, sensitivity etc. in detail.

        Principles and Practices

        by Auxcilia J., Veena Amarnath, Parthiban, S., Santhi, V P., Indumathi, K, Pugalendhi, L. & Aneesa Rani, M.S

        This book is a meticulous presentation of fundamental principles of Horticulture and it gradually transcends and culminates to advanced technologies. It will be a ready reckoner, which will be useful to provide ready tips to any undergraduate faculty. Chapter 1 to chapter 4 give a broad description of fundamentals in horticultural sciences and the institutes involved in furthering the interest of horticulture. Chapters 5 to chapter 14 explainab out the tools, inputs and techniques used in crop management. Chapters 16 to chapter 19 deal with use of growth regulators, protected cultivation, good agricultural practices and organic horticulture. With the increase in pollution, people are keen to produce their own vegetables and chapter 20 focuses on that need of people. Chapter 21 provides an insight to applied biotechnology related to horticultureviz.,micro propagation and genetic engineering. The chapters 22 and 23 shed light on the scope of aesthetic aspects of horticulture. Horticulture therapy is a novel concept to deal with present day health issues and this is explained in chapter 24. Climate change and irresponsible human behavior has caused stress conditions for crop growth and it is adequately dealt in chapter 25. It is estimated that at least 20 – 30 % of the horticulture produce is wasted as post-harvest loss and hence chapter 26 and 27 are designed to provide post-harvest handling and value addition.
