This book has been compiled from lecture handouts prepared for the International Postgraduate Course on Soil Quality entitled Soil Pollution and Soil Protection given jointly by the Universities of Wageningen (The Netherlands) Gent and Leuven (Belgium) under the auspices of the International Training Centre (PHLO) of Wageningen Agricultural University. Of the three environmental compartments air water and soil it is soil that varies most in composition under natural conditions. The effects of chemical degradation of soil usually referred to as Soil Pollution depend on interactions between soil constituents and pollutants and also on the relatively large buffering capacity of soil. It is therefore very difficult to evaluate soil quality quantitatively yet such evaluation is a prerequisite for formulating policy and legislation to prevent soil pollution and restore soil quality. The book therefore aims to provide basic information to aid understanding of the complex problem of soil quality and its evaluation. Its intended readers are graduates who are professionally involved in soil quality and have to deal with problems of soil protection in the context of education research policy making or consultancy. 306 pp.

References. Index. The Indian dairy industry has made rapid progress since independence a large number of modern milk plants and product factories have since been established. These organized dairies have been successfully engaged in the routine commercial production of pasteurized milk and various western and Indian dairy products. Most of the supervisory and technical personnel in these dairies have had their dairy education in this country although a few have been trained abroad as well. The author is interested to share his knowledge of dairy technology with many of these persons i.e. consumers producers graduate and post graduate students of food technology microbiology dairy technology doctors and research scholars in the interest of our business and for the safety of our consumers it is essential to aware regarding food safety standards. The term quality covers physical chemical microbiological and safety aspects of a product. A poor quality food product will have poor market value short shelf life and could also be a health hazard to consumers. In most of the developed countries the media the consumers and the regulatory bodies have forced the producers and the suppliers to comply with the prescribed food safety standards. Whereas in India while there are reasonably good rules observations of these rules and the implementation of quality control measures are usually inadequate due to many reasons. Public awareness regarding quality is poor and regulations on quality are rarely followed. In the interest of our business and for the safety of our consumers it is essential to maintain the appropriate quality of milk and milk products. As a member of the World Trade Organization it has become obligatory for India to apply sanitary and phytosanitary measures while producing processing and marketing milk and milk products and abide with the guidelines prescribed by the codex alimentarious commission. This is necessary if we want to participate in the international trade of milk and milk products for ensuring better returns to our farmer members. The United Nations recommends to the governments all over the world to adopt the standards set up by the codex alimentarious as the reference point for consumer protection with regard to food. By harmonizing the food laws and by adopting internationally agreed standards global commerce improves and the trade barriers diminish gradually. Through harmonization free movement of goods amongst the countries is achieved to the benefit of the farmers and the subsequent reduction of hunger and.

One Earth and one Humanity should be our motto as this planet is the only place in the universe known to sustain life. Human activities are progressively reducing the planet's life supporting capacities by adding million tons of Organic Wastes everyday into the environment. Uncontrolled dumping and improper handling of such wastes pose a great risk to human health and subsequent deterioration in the natural climatic conditions. Prevention of environmental degradation has become a matter of serious concern. This is one of the many areas in which prevention is better and much less costlier than the cure. In recent years public attention has focused increasingly on environmental deterioration and its effect on man and other creatures. As such many ideas have been floated for the management of waste disposal but a safer management for disposal of these organic wastes is a burning problem of modern society and great challenge to the scientific community. Amongst all the management methods tried in the world vermicomposting has proved to be the best cheapest and the most effective method for recycling of these wastes into organic manure. All fourteen chapters of the book have been written by subject experts of the country. The first five chapters disclose the various devices of the technology and role of specific species of earthworms in solid waste management. The sixth to eleventh chapters with vermicomposting of different types of organic wastes. The last three chapters specifically deal with the impact of vermicomposting on soil fertility and plant productivity. It is hoped that this book will be a remarkable asset for suggesting easy devices of technology for proper management of various types of solid organic wastes to the agrarians agricultural scientists earthworm ecologists Non Government Organizations and policy makers for upholding the law of nature and bringing about a clean healthy environment. 242 pp.

Index. Grape cultivation is one of the most lucrative farming in India. It is grown in Maharashtra Karnataka Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu. India produces approximately 9 lakh tonnes of fresh grape annually from an area of 34 000 ha. In the world scenario of grape experts India's share about 12 000 tonnes per year accounting for 1.33 per cent of the total production. Grapes are grown in tropical regions of India and research goes on National Research Center Pune and Indian Institute of Horticulture Research Bangalore. India has the distinction of grape harvesting at such a time when no grapes are harvested any where in the world by virtue of double pruning. In Northern Karnataka there is scope of cultivating wine varieties along with table varieties and resins as prices of resin decline day by day. There is immense opportunity to produce export quality grape off season cropping was tried in Northern Karnataka especially Bijapur but harvesting coincides with the September rains. All aspects have been covered in this book viz. soil water climate propagation and root stock varieties the establishment of vineyard training pruning systems physiological disorders pest and diseases processing and wine making. 206 pp.
