Book Synopsis
This monograph contains six chapters, each of which provides an update in agricultural research. Chapter One describes the potential health benefits of Morus alba, known colloquially as mulberry, which include its qualities as an antioxidant and antidepressant. Chapter Two deals with the impact of droughts, which are increasing in severity due to climate change, on sugarcane production as well as potential drought response measures. Chapter Three also concerns sugarcane, specifically in connection with the narrow genetic base of current sugarcane varieties and possible solutions for improving genetic diversity. Chapter Four provides an overview of the use of chamomile as a natural food additive for livestock as an alternative to the use of antibiotics in animal diets. Chapter Five discusses the issue of fraudulent practices in food production, such as dilution, tampering, and misrepresentation, and discusses strategies for reducing this problem globally. Finally, Chapter Six details the major diseases of brinjal, also called eggplant, and how to manage them.
