Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Productive Plant Husbandry: A Text-Book for High Schools Including Plant Propagation, Plant Breeding, Soils, Field Crops, Gardening, Fruit Growing, Forestry, Insects, Plant Diseases and Farm Management Such duplication is discouraging to the student, and less real progress is made in the instruction. This book, including the study of soils and plant husbandry, offers a solution for this difficulty. The book has had its origin in the discussions and plans formulated by the agricultural teachers of accredited high schools in conferences beginning in 1914. These conferences for southern states have been held and reports formulated in cooperation with the United States Department of Agriculture. A decided effort has been made to get away from the one-year plan for the starting of the high school course in agriculture. There has also been a feeling that high school students should not be required to purchase too many separate text-books for each year of the high school course. The plan, somewhat modified, would be: High schools offering only one year of agriculture, should give - A year of plant husbandry (with a view to adding a second year of animal husbandry later). High schools offering two years of agriculture should give: First year: Plant Husbandry. Second year: Animal Husbandry (including Poultry). High schools offering three years of agriculture should give: First year: Plant Husbandry. Second year: Animal Husbandry (including Poultry). Third year: Farm Mechanics and Engineering (half year). Farm Management and Accounting (half year). High schools offering four years of agriculture should give: First year: Plant Husbandry. Second year: Animal Husbandry (including Poultry). Third year: Farm Mechanics and Engineering (half year). Farm Management and Accounting (half year). Fourth year: Dairying, or Poultry (half year). Feeds and Feeding, or Special Fruit Growing (half year). Electives from the following may be substituted in the third year of three-year high schools, and in the last two years of four-year high schools: 1⁄3 unit each of Fruit Growing, Vegetable Gardening, or Improvement of Home Grounds; 1⁄2 unit each of Dairying, Animal Husbandry (Feeding), or Field Crops; 1⁄4 unit each of Insects or Forestry. In the high school curriculum the science work to be taken parallel with the agricultural course, should be of a practical nature. The biology should include additional studies in economic insects, birds, bacteria in relation to country life, and the main types of plant diseases. Physics or chemistry, or perhaps both of these sciences, can be given a strong practical trend. This plan may or may not be preceded by agricultural lessons in the grades below the high school, but such an elementary course covering the whole field in a very brief way, would be helpful, and is recommended. Some Nature lessons in the grades may also be given, and these should have a practical and perhaps an agricultural trend.

Download or read book Plant Breeding Reviews Volume 40 written by Jules Janick and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-10-10 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant Breeding Reviews presents state-of-the-art reviews on plant genetics and the breeding of all types of crops by both traditional means and molecular methods. Many of the crops widely grown today stem from a very narrow genetic base; understanding and preserving crop genetic resources is vital to the security of food systems worldwide. The emphasis of the series is on methodology, a fundamental understanding of crop genetics, and applications to major crops.

Download or read book Market Driven Plant Breeding for Practicing Breeders written by Aparna Tiwari and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-02 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights the technicalities of plant breeding in a seed-business environment and explains the crucial aspects of the value chain. It educates the readers on how to initiate, participate, sustain national and international agreements for material transfer, how consortia work to facilitate germplasm accessibility, and how to set visionary goals to develop a superior plant varieties. The book covers the aspects such as how to conduct disease screening trials at hot spots, preparing an operational budget, and how to accelerate product advancement. Plant breeding is broadly defined as manipulation of plant genotypes to create phenotypes that are beneficial to mankind. It helps to achieve food security and sustainability by developing high yielding, climate-resilient, nutritious varieties of crops and hence is able to address unprecedented challenges like rising global population, diminishing genetic biodiversity, and uncertainties of the weather . This book is an extraordinary source of information starting from goal-genesis to market-oriented product-profiling and help readers to accelerate/enhance? their work/professional performance more effectively. This book will be very useful to practicing plant breeders at various levels in the public and private sectors. It is a must-have book for potential plant breeders who enter plant breeding profession just after the completion of their formal plant breeding education.
