Hardcover. Zustand: New. Minor fruit crops may be termed as the crops, that are neither grown commercially on large scale nor traded widely around the world. These crops fall under less known plant species in terms of research, medicinal properties, nutritive value and marketing aspects but can be seen well adapting and cultivated of various conditions viz., degraded land, low water availability, frost resistance, high temperature tolerance etc. Research workers worldwide have shown lot of evidences of underutilized wild edible plants possessing great valuable nutritional value. Underutilized fruits are undeniably known as protective food as they are rich in vitamins, phytochemicals and minerals. Fruits are excellent source of soluble dietary fibre, which helps in lowering the cholesterol level and fats from the body and also helps in smooth bowel movements. Many underutilized species can make an important contribution to a better diet for local communities and generate income sources of small and marginal fruit growers. Antioxidant properties helps in removal of free radicals from the body thus provide protection against chronicle and many infectious diseases. Underutilized fruits viz., Phalsa (Grewia asiatica), Jamun (Syzygium cuminii), Ber (Ziziphus mauritiana), Aonla (Emblica officinalis), Bael (Aegle marmelos), Pomegranate (Punica granatum L.), Karonda (Carissa carandas), Pummelo (Citrus grandis), Passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) and Tamarind (Tamarindus indica) etc. are equally important to commercially grown in these regards and there is good opportunity for fruit growers in arid, semi-arid as well as rainfed areas. A focus on neglected and minor fruit crops is an effective way to help a diverse and healthy diet and to combat micro nutrient deficiencies, the so-called hidden hunger and other dietary deficiency particularly among the rural poor community and the more vulnerable social groups in developing countries.

Rabi crops of rainfed areas are inflicted by several important insect pests, diseases and weeds. Correct identification of insect pests, diseases and weeds is therefore necessary not only for strict quarantine to check the spread of new pest species, but to achieve the desired productivity levels. The purpose of this publication entitled 'A Colour Handbook on Rainfed Rabi Crops: Protection, Constraints and Mitigation Strategies' is to assist the students, field researchers, agriculture department field functionaries, scholars and farmers in correct identification of these pests and their management thereof. In this book, efforts have been made to describe the damaging symptoms, identification characteristics, biology and management techniques of more than 100 pest species with their coloured illustrations.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. In swimming, technical performance is a vital indicator of successful performance; however, during phases of high-intensity training, technique can be negatively influenced by fatigue. Advances in video technology have made it possible to increase coaches' capacity to monitor athletes' technical performances during training. Yet research examining the biomechanical responses that occur with fatigue using video methods, which are applicable and relevant to coaches during training, is scarce. The limited research to date that has examined the biomechanical responses that occur with fatigue has been restricted to examining fatigue during race-like situations and have used technology which is not available for use by coaches during training. Whilst this research indicates that changes occur during races, it does not apply to coaches for use during training. As fatigue, and its management, is a vital component of the training process, identifying a method of monitoring fatigue during training, which is applicable to coaches, is essential for athlete development. This research is therefore intended to address this by exploring the implications of 2-dimensional (2-D) video analysis in the management of fatigue, during training, by competitive swimming coaches.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. God has gifted many things to us and we only have t preserve these precious gifts as these are major and most vital things for all living beings on the earth for their survival. So, the well-being and survival of human being depend on millions of species of plants and microbes which include species and varieties of crop, livestock and wildlife. Biodiversity, which refer to the variety and variability among living organisms in our environment and the ecosystems complexes in which they occur is facing ecological catastrophes and within the next few decades it is likely to extinct according to the report "People and the Environment", released recently by the US based WRI. Rapid loss of Biodiversity is caused by the destruction of Habitats of wild animals by man, hunting overexploitation, using pesticides, pollution of water, air, noise etc. Serval techniques, legal aspects and action plans have been implemented for the conversation on Biodiversity. Biotechnology has also added many scientific and engineering principles for conservation of Biodiversity and its impact has also been discussed. Biodiversity maintains ecological balance and evolutionary processes and it has become an important topic for its conservation and management. This book is a sincere effort of the authors not only for spreading awareness but also for providing information about the variety of living things existing in the environment and it suggests ways for its conservation and development.

Forests play important role in combating desertification preventing erosion problems other protective functions climatic change and acting as carbon reservoirs and sinks. Forests the biodiversity they contain and the ecological function they maintain are a heritage of mankind. The vital role of forests in protecting fragile ecosystems watersheds and freshwater reservoirs and as store houses of rich biodiversity should be recognized. Forests contain not only woody species and wild animals but also a wealth of other species of actual or potentially socio economic importance at the global national and local levels including wild relatives of important crop species. Biodiversity is the variety and variability of plant animal and micro organism in a ecosystem. Biodiversity in wild and domesticated forms is the source for most of humanity food medicine clothing and housing most of the cultural diversity and most of the intellectual and spiritual inspirations. In other words it is the very basis of man's being. Currently there is severe and widespread loss of biodiversity because of a variety of factors and therefore its conservation is of utmost importance. Conservation and development are partners in the process of environmental protection. To maintain and increase the ecological biological climatic socio cultural and economic contributions of forests their conservation and management are urgently required. Biological diversity (biodiversity) is also to be preserved to achieve sustainable development. The book is a sincere effort of the authors to provide compiled information on the subject matter of forest environment and diversity. It includes the impact of forests on environment basic concept status and extent of biodiversity its loss and suggests ways and means of conservation for achieving sustainable development. 556 pp.
