Cash Crops: Genetic Diversity, Erosion, Conservation and Utilization

Cash Crops: Genetic Diversity, Erosion, Conservation and Utilization by P.M. Priyadarshan
English | EPUB | 2022 | 620 Pages | ISBN : 3030749258 | 26.5 MB

Cash crops are grown and sold for monetary gain and not necessarily for sustenance. They include coffee, tea, coconut, cotton, jute, groundnut, castor, linseed, cocoa, rubber, cassava, soybean, sweet potato, potato, wheat, corn and teff. While some of these crops have been improved for realizing yield potential, breeding of many of them is still in infancy. Crops that underwent rigorous breeding have eventually lost much of the diversity due to extensive cultivation with a few improved varieties and the diversity in less bred species is to be conserved.

The Quest to Conserve Rare Breeds: Setting the Record Straight by Lawrence Alderson
English | PDF | 2020 | 132 Pages | ISBN : 178924711X | 11.8 MB

Since the middle of the twentieth century the world has witnessed a succession of political and social disruptions. Globalisation, technological advancement, climate change, human migration, war and conflict - all have caused major worldwide upheavals.In this light, it's unsurprising that conservation of rare breed animals has been neglected. Yet the preservation of these genetic resources - this biological diversity - is an essential ingredient of sustainable life on Earth, and not something we can afford to lose.This book challenges often repeated 'facts' about livestock farming, straight from the horse's mouth.
