Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study pertains to economics of potato cultivation in Himachal Pradesh with special reference to Lahaul-Spiti district. Himachal Pradesh has its name for the production and supply of seed potato in the country. Lahaul-Spiti which is also a cold desert region, has emerged as the potential area for the production of seed potato. Moreover, potato plays a dominant role in the economy of this most inaccessible and most sparsely populated region of our country. The region has a comparative advantage in the production of disease-free quality seed potato due to its conducive agro-climatic situation. At present the district has the potential to produce 25 percent of the state output, out of which about 70 percent is exported as seed to other parts of the country. However, due to difficult hilly terrain and scarce resources, the tribal farmers of Himachal Pradesh face lot of problems in improving the efficiency of production and marketing of their produce. Being solely a commercial crop, the resource allocation as well as marketing mechanism plays a dominant role in enhancing economic well-being of the farmers. The study entails both these aspects. The present publication aims at popularizing optimum method of cultivation of potato alongwith other important crops and efficient marketing system for highlighting the problems and constraints on production and marketing fronts. The study further explores the possibilities for enhancing the income of tribal farmers. The findings of this study would help chalking out the policy framework for future planning not only for Lahaul-Spiti region but also for other potato growing areas of the state as well as the country as a whole. Contents Chapter 1: Introduction; Chapter 2: Socio-economic Profile of the Sample Household; Chapter 3: Input-output Relationship; Chapter 4: Credit Requirement Under Different Farm Sizes; Chapter 5: Area, Production, Marketing Pattern and Supply of Potato; Chapter 6: Problems Faced by the Farmers in the Producing and Marketing of Seed Potato; Chapter 7: Summary and Conclusion.

This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Potato ranks fourth position in the world after wheat, rice and maize as non cereal food crop. Potato is probably the most popular food item in the Indian diet and India is one of the largest producers of potato. It is used in many ways like vegetable, potato wafers/chips, powder, finger chips etc. Potato tubers constitute a highly nutritious food. It provides carbohydrates, vitamin C, minerals, high quality protein and dietary fiber. Potato is a rich source of starch and it is consumed mainly for its calorific value, also contains phosphorus, calcium, iron and some vitamins. Boiling potatoes increases their protein content and almost doubles their calcium content. It is vastly consumed as a vegetable and is also used in various forms such as starch, flour, alcohol, and dextrin and livestock fodder. It is estimated that about 25 % of the potatoes, which are spoiled due to several reasons, may be saved by processing and preservation of various types of processed products. The potatoes can be processed for preservation and value addition in the form of wafers/ chips, powder, flakes, granules, canned slices. Potato granules are used for the preparation of various recipes, to add to vegetable and non vegetable recipes and to enhance the quantity as well as to enrich the food value. There is a huge potential for processed potato products such as potato flakes, potato powder, frozen potatoes, frozen French fries, potato chips/wafers are one of the most popular snack items consumed throughout world. International trade in potatoes and potato products still remains thin relative to production, as only around 6 percent of output is traded. High transport costs, including the cost of refrigeration, are major obstacles to a wider international marketplace. The industry is still growing at a rapid pace where French fries are showing the highest growth followed by potato chips and potato powder/flakes. It is by far the largest product category within snacks, with 85% of the total market revenue.

This book was released on 2016-06-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century. Climate is changing across our planet, largely, as a result of human activities. The indicators of climate change include physical responses such as changes in the surface temperature, atmospheric water vapour, severe climatic events, melting of glaciers, and a rise in sea level. Mountain ecosystems being exceptionally fragile are prone to both natural and anthropogenic drivers of change, which ranges from volcanic and seismic events and flooding to global climate change and of vegetation and soils, resulting from inappropriate agricultural and forestry practices and extractive industries. Environmental issues directly affect agricultural productivity, famine and pandemics, health, economy, and ecology. In this light, environmental protection, the practice of protecting the environment on individual, community, organizational, or governmental level, assumes a significant role. This book provides a holistic coverage of the basics of climate change, changes in biodiversity, phytosociological changes, and thus proposes a comprehensive set of solutions to resolve various issues related to environment and climate change. This book would be beneficial for researchers, policy makers, academicians, environmentalists, and university students.
