This book was released on 2012-03 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Present study has made a deep investigation covering, both important aspects, such as economics of production and marketing, besides, constraints in the cotton production in Haveri District. It also analyses the marketing cost and marketing margin, which exercise a dominant influence on its economics. Under such situation, it is a matter of paramount importance to study the seasonal variation in Bt cotton and non Bt cotton arrivals and their effect on prices of cotton, profitability of Bt cotton and non Bt cotton cultivation and the behaviour of farmers towards Bt cotton and non Bt cotton prices and their effect on area allocation, production and productivity of Bt cotton and non Bt cotton. In view of the above situations, there arises a need to interpret the phenomenon of cost and profitability of Bt cotton and non-Bt cotton. The findings of the study will be of interest and useful to local agencies, research scientists, policy makers and commercial organisations. The aim of the study is to analyse the problems associated with cost and profitability of production and marketing of Bt cotton and non-Bt cotton in Haveri District of Karnataka State India.

Book Bt Cotton vis    vis Traditional Cotton Varieties  The Economics and Returns in the State of Maharashtra in India

Download or read book Bt Cotton vis vis Traditional Cotton Varieties The Economics and Returns in the State of Maharashtra in India written by Vasant P. Gandhi and published by Allied Publishers. This book was released on 2010-08-09 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breakthroughs in science and technology often produce stunning results such as in the green revolution which swept through much of Asia averting the food crisis. Given the present slowing of agricultural growth and rising commodity prices, breakthroughs are once again urgently required and this has put biotechnology at the forefront of a new potential green revolution. One of the frontrunners in this has been development of Bt Cotton which was introduced into India in 2002, amidst much hesitation, after its induction in a large number of other countries. Whereas it has been accepted and has spread rapidly in India leading to a substantial growth in cotton production, there are conflicting reports about its success and various issues and problems have been raised. In light of this, the book examines the performance of Bt Cotton vis-à-vis non-Bt Cotton in the state of Maharashtra which is the largest cotton growing state by area. This is part of a coordinated study undertaken by the authors for the Ministry of Agriculture covering four major cotton states—Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu—which together account for about 70 percent of the country's cotton production. The book examines the adoption, experience, performance and economics of Bt cotton in Maharashtra. It reports on the advantages, disadvantages as well as other observations on Bt cotton as conveyed by the farmers of the state.

Book excerpt: Despite the fact that three quarters of the world's poor live in rural areas, the level of international development aid directed at rural areas has continued to decline over the last decade, particularly in terms of the agricultural sector. In 2001, lending for agricultural projects was the lowest in the World Bank's history. This publication presents the World Bank's new rural development strategy based upon a results oriented approach which stresses practice, implementation, monitoring and empowerment aspects. The strategy seeks to highlight rural development efforts, focusing on the needs of the rural poor, fostering a broad-based economic growth and addressing the impact of global developments on client countries.

Book Current Trends in Plant Disease Diagnostics and Management Practices

Download or read book Current Trends in Plant Disease Diagnostics and Management Practices written by Pradeep Kumar and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-28 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant diseases play an important role on our daily lives. Most of plant diseases are visible and are caused by biotic and/or abiotic factors. Symptoms are usually the results of a morphological change, alteration or damage to plant tissue and/or cells due to an interference of the plant’s metabolism. All basic structures of vascular plants are subject to attack by pathogens. The failure in accurate disease diagnosis and management may lead to huge losses in plant production and related commodities, which causes nutritional food scarcity. Typically, the appearance of a biotic symptom will indicate the relatively late stage of an infection and/or colonization of a pathogen. Expert detection, accurate diagnosis, and timely management play a significant role in keeping plants free from pathogens. In this book expert scholars share their research knowledge and key literature which are vital toward the diagnosis of plant diseases across the globe, addressing traditional plant pathology techniques, as well as advanced molecular diagnostic approach.

Book Improvement of Crops in the Era of Climatic Changes

Download or read book Improvement of Crops in the Era of Climatic Changes written by Parvaiz Ahmad and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-12 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current trends in population growth hint that global food production is unlikely to gratify future demands under predicted climate change scenarios unless the rates of crop improvement are accelerated. Crop production faces numerous challenges, due to changing environmental conditions and evolving needs for new plant-derived materials. These challenges come at a time when the plant sciences are witnessing remarkable progress in understanding fundamental processes of plant growth and development. Drought, heat, cold and salinity are among the major abiotic stresses that often cause a series of morphological, physiological, biochemical and molecular alterations which adversely affect plant growth, development and productivity, consequently posing a serious challenge for sustainable food production in large parts of the world, particularly in emerging countries. This emphasizes the urgency of finding better ways to translate new advances in plant science into concrete successes in agricultural production. To overcome the pessimistic influence of abiotic stresses and to maintain the food security in the face of these challenges, new, improved and tolerant crop varieties, contemporary breeding techniques, and cavernous understanding of the mechanisms that counteract detrimental climate changes are indubitably needed to sustain the requisite food supply. In this context, Improvement of Crops in the Era of Climatic Changes, Volume 1 provides a state-of-the-art guide to recent developments that aid in the understanding of plant responses to abiotic stresses and lead to new horizons vis-à-vis prime strategies for translating current research into applied solutions to create strong yields and overall crop improvement under such unfavourable environments. Written by a diverse group of internationally famed scholars, Improvement of Crops in the Era of Climatic Changes, Volume 1 is a brief yet all-inclusive resource that is immensely advantageous for researchers, students, environmentalists, soil scientists, professionals, and many others in the quest of advancement in this flourishing field of research.
