Description
Advanced Production Techniques of Minor Fruits is an essential guide for horticulturists, researchers, and farmers interested in cultivating underutilized fruit crops with high nutritional and economic potential. The book provides a detailed exploration of modern cultivation methods, sustainable farming practices, and value-addition techniques for minor fruits, which are often overlooked in conventional agriculture despite their adaptability to marginal lands and climate resilience. Covering a wide range of fruits such as jamun, karonda, phalsa, bael, and ber, the book addresses key aspects like soil and climate requirements, advanced propagation techniques (including tissue culture and grafting), high-density planting, and efficient nutrient and irrigation management. It also discusses integrated pest and disease management strategies to ensure healthy crop production while minimizing chemical inputs.
