It is the result of continued efforts to provide students with textual material that emphasizes fundamental concepts underlying crop science and production. In addition to updating and revision of chapters also represents efforts to integrate basic concepts of sustainable agriculture and environmental awareness throughout the text. It is designed to embrace concerns and questions related to agriculture, horticulture, environment and plant protection of our natural resources rather than ignore them. The text purposefully emphasizes basic concepts illustrated with suitable crop examples. The text allows the teacher to enhance the students understanding and application regions using lecture discussion or other instructional formats.
