Transfer of Agricultural TechnologyR.R. Chole, P.R. Deshmukh & P.S. Kapse

The course 'Extension Methodologies for Transfer of Agricultural Technology' has been

introduced recently at undergraduate level in the faculty of agriculture in all agricultural

universities in India. We are very happy to let our readers know that the book has been planned

to cover the contents of this course in the new curriculum so that this can serve as a text book for

the UG agricultural students. This could also be used as reference book by students at post

graduate level in agricultural universities as well as the students in traditional universities

under-going courses on extension education.

Productivity Enhancing Technologies for

Horticultural Crops

P. Parvatha Reddy

The average productivity of most horticultural crops in India is low. There is a wide gap between

yields obtained and potential yields with improved varieties and technologies. Programmes,

therefore, need to be taken up to reduce the yield gap by improving productivity.

The present book deals with productivity enhancing technologies such as use of high yielding

varieties/hybrids, high density planting, micro-irrigation, fertigation, protected cultivation, bio-

regulators, biotechnological approaches, integrated nutrient, weed, pest, disease and nematode

management in general and crop-wise in particular. The book is illustrated with excellent

quality photographs enhancing the quality of publication. The book is written in lucid style, easy

to understand language along with adoptable recommendations for enhancing the productivity.

Climate Change Adaptation Strategies in

Agriculture and Allied SectorsGSLHV Prasad Rao

The book deals with climate change impacts and adaptation strategies in agriculture,

horticulture, plantation crops in the humid tropics, livestock, fisheries, forestry, water

resources and biodiversity. The invited and research papers, included in the book, provide clues

for developing adaptation and mitigation strategies in coping up with the expected climate

change in future. Although global foodgrains production is likely to increase in tune with rising

population and demand in ensuing decades, it may suffer unless new approaches to adapt crop

plants to climate change are adopted. Therefore, “Research and education policy in climate

change adaptation and mitigation is the need of the hour to address the climate issues in various

sectors as the frequency of occurrence of floods and droughts, cold and heat waves are likely to

increase under projected climate change scenarios and a threat to food security.

Remote Sensing for Natural Resources

Management and MonitoringMahesh Gaur et al.

The book attempts to match user need to the level of technology required for management,

planning and monitoring of natural resources. It provides clear guidance on the reliability,

accuracy and cost of applications. Editors believe that this endeavour shall provide a valuable

scientific basis to students and researchers to address the future challenges in natural resources

monitoring and management. Accurate inventory, assessment and periodic monitoring of

resources will enable the policy makers to keep an eye on optimal utilization of resources and

development process to take timely interventions. We further hope this book will be a valuable

reference and provide practical guidance for all who work towards the goal of the sustainable

and judicious use of resources.

Remote Sensing : Principles & Applications

A.N. Patel & S. Singh

In India, like the other countries of the world, air-borne and space-borne remote sensing

techniques is being used in the research, planning and development. This book deals with the

basic principles of remote sensing such as definition and types of remote sensing,

electromagnetic radiation and its interaction with matter, types of sensors and platforms, data

products and visual and digital analysis and interpretation techniques. The applications of

remote sensing in the appraisal and management of natural resources, temporal change

detection in various terrain features and environmental problems.

Testing of Agricultural TechnologicalProcesses - A Systems ApproachS.V. Kardashevskii et al.

The authors of the present book have examined organizational and technological principles and

scientific methods of testing agricultural technological processes. They discuss in detail modern

methods of agricultural technological evaluation, power rating, operational and technological

evaluation and economic estimation of agricultural machines and complexes. They also describe

methods for estimating the reliability of agricultural machines and the working conditions for

machine operators. The authors have introduced the fundamental principles of systems

analysis and methods for forecasting the effectiveness of an agricultural technological process in

the testing stage. The book will be useful for engineers and technicians involved in the research

and development, and testing of agricultural technological processes.

Processing Tropical Crops- A Technological Approach

J.J. Asiedu

Processing Tropical Crops covers all aspects of processing ten major crops: Casava, Cocoa,

Coconut, Coffee, Groundnut, Maize/Corn, Oil Palm, Sorghum and Millet, Soya beans and Yam.

Each crop is considered in the light of existing traditional methods of processing, the technol-

ogies and equipment used, and the chemical and physical properties of the crop. Concise refere-

nce is provided through the extensive use of graphs and tables. The book offers food technolo-

gists, food engineers, biochemists, development aid workers, manufacturers of processing

equipment and food scientists a valuable source of information on the processing possibilities

and potential of the selected crops. It should also serve as a useful text for a variety of science

courses, including food technology, food engineering and chemistry at the undergraduate level.

Forest Fires and Their ControlE.S. Artsybashev

The nature of forest fires, their development and spread depending on the conditions of forest

vegetation and a combination of various meteorological factors has been described on the basis

of scientifically collected data. The author describes the designs of various fire observation

towers and masts, and proposes unique technical methods ensuring the safe ascent of the

observer to the top as well as his descent with the minimum expenditure of manpower and also

describes technical equipment and methods of detecting and extingui-shing forest fires. While

examining the prospect of using television and infrared technique for detecting fires, the author

also discusses in detail aerial suppression of forest fires (using airplanes and helicopters),

including the method of controlling extensive fires by means of artificially induced rainfall.

The purpose of this publication is to provide guidance which, within the context of a mechani-

zation strategy, will help governments to reach decisions regarding rehabilitation programmes,

and to implement them when appropriate. Unfortunately, it is not possible to establish precise

criteria that can be universally applied to planning and operating such programmes; there are

too many variables from one situation to another. Nevertheless, there are a number of overall

considerations and procedures that should be taken into account when analysing the local

situation and when planning and launching rehabilitation programmes. This publication

describes these considerations and procedures. It also provides information, of a case study

nature, on some past and ongoing machinery rehabilitation programmes.
