FUNDAMENTALS OF HORTICULTURE

About the Book

Overview
Horticulture is a critical component of agriculture, contributing not only to the economy but also to the overall well-being of human society through the production of fruits, vegetables, flowers and ornamental plants. As our global population continues to grow and urbanization spreads, the importance of sustainable and efficient horticultural practices has never been more apparent. "Fundamentals of Horticulture" is designed to provide students, practitioners and enthusiasts with a comprehensive introduction to the core principles and practices of this essential field. This book draws upon the recommendations and insights from the 6th Dean's Committee Report on Agricultural Education by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR). The committee emphasized the need for modern and practical approaches in horticultural education, particularly the integration of scientific knowledge with hands-on skills. The chapters in this book align with these directives, offering a structured approach to understanding the fundamental aspects of horticulture. The first chapter introduces the broad field of horticulture, covering its significance, scope, and potential for future growth. As the reader progresses through the chapters, they will be introduced to the botanical classification of horticultural crops, the soil and climate requirements for various horticultural practices, and essential techniques for plant propagation.
