Subject Index. Nutrition is one of the most important aspects of fruit culture and accounts for thirty per cent of total cost of cultivation. However, in Indian fruit industry nutritional mis-management is among the major caused of low orchard efficiency resulting in poor productivity. It is not that we lack in knowledge and experience in nutritional management but it has not been presented in proper perspective to meet the requirement of clientele. This book on 'Nutrition of Fruit Crops" describes the importance and role of nutrient elements, problems of nutrition of tree crops, nutrient uptake, factors affecting their availability and diagnostic tools for monitoring nutrient use in first seven chapters. Remaining eighteen chapters (8 to 25) give detailed information for commercial fruit crops in terms of what to apply, how much to apply, where and how best to apply and finally the calendar of operations for nutrient use in various fruit growing regions of the country. This book is concise, and is based on Indian experience and timely too when development f horticultural is receiving priority attention in the present agricultural policy of the country with emphasis on crop diversification, value addition and export wherein nutrition taken a significant place for high quality produce. It will interest all those concerned with fruit production and acquisition of knowledge in nutrition of fruit crops. (jacket).

Efforts have, therefore, been on for harnessing this natural resource through artificial means for increasing crop productivity. One such technology is protected cultivation. This technique is well adopted in Europe and USA and now China and Japan are leading in controlled sphere production of horticultural crops. In India, the technology is making break through in Karnataka and Maharashtra in protected cultivation of pepper, tomato, cucumber, muskmelon, baby corn etc. Precision farming is defined as the cultivation by adopting technologies which give maximum precision in production of a superior crop with a desired yield levels and quality at competitive production. These include use of genetically modified crop varieties, micro propagation, integrated nutrient, water and pest managements, protected cultivation, organic farming, hi-tech horticulture, and post harvest technology. Post-harvest sector needs lot of precision. Peels, rags, etc. go waste. Many times, peels being rich in polyphenols, colouring pigment, nutrients etc are richer in antioxidant than what we actually eat. Here, we need precision. Precision in management, precision in product diversification, precision in value addition are much sought after aspect. (jacket).
