Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Cultivated Vegetables, Vol. 1 of 2: Comprising Their Botanical It is not without feelings of anxiety and apprehension, that the Author commits his second Work, on the vegetable gifts of Nature, to the public. Their indulgence to his labours in the vineyard, has emboldened him to venture on a more extensive field; he therefore now offers his Treatise on "Cultivated Vegetables," in a similar shape, with a hope of similar reception. Considering, however, the almost infinite variety of plants which are cultivated for use or pleasure, the Author has thought it expedient to select those familiar plants which seem entitled to the most general attention. He has also introduced some species of vegetables that are not strictly cultivated, but whose services and singular properties render them worthy of notice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is the second in a series of three evaluating underexploited African plant resources that could help broaden and secure Africa's food supply. The volume describes the characteristics of 18 little-known indigenous African vegetables (including tubers and legumes) that have potential as food- and cash-crops but are typically overlooked by scientists and policymakers and in the world at large. The book assesses the potential of each vegetable to help overcome malnutrition, boost food security, foster rural development, and create sustainable landcare in Africa. Each species is described in a separate chapter, based on information gathered from and verified by a pool of experts throughout the world. Volume I describes African grains and Volume III African fruits.

Download or read book CULTIVATED PLANTS PRIMARILY AS FOOD SOURCES Volume II written by Gyorgy Fuleky and published by EOLSS Publications. This book was released on 2009-02-13 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultivated Plants, Primarily as Food Sources is a component of Encyclopedia of Food and Agricultural Sciences, Engineering and Technology Resources in the global Encyclopedia of Life Support Systems (EOLSS), which is an integrated compendium of twenty one Encyclopedias. Global food demand is forecast to double and possible triple, by the year 2050, when more than 10 billion people will need to be fed worldwide. To ensure adequate nutrition for this growing population food production must be expanded faster than the population. Following a longer introduction chapter with some information on the history of crop production, the land used for agriculture, the cropping systems and the future trends, comes the knowledge in depth: The grain and cereal, the edible been plants, the vegetables and plants for edible starch, oil, sugar and beverage production, the fruits and nuts, the fiber, forage and industrial crops. Each subject contains glossary and bibliography for better and deeper understanding. At each important plant the history, the production technology, the importance of the crop in nutrition of growing population, the feeding value, some short case stories, and the future trends are discussed. When considering plant foods in relation to human health, it should be remembered that plant foods may also have health value in addition to their nutritional value. It would seem possible to modify the composition of plant foods as to improve human health. In developing countries, poverty leads to food shortage and under nutrition and many populations survive largely on plant-based diets. In industrialized countries, relative affluence leads to over consumption of food and especially to over-consumption of animal foods at the expense of plant foods. These two volumes, cultivated plants, primarily as food sources, help to get more detailed knowledge to overcome the mentioned problem of the World. These volumes are aimed at the following five major target audiences: University and College Students Educators, Professional Practitioners, Research Personnel and Policy Analysts, Managers, and Decision Makers, NGOs and GOs.
