About the product

Agriculture in Asia has gone through great changes in the second half of the Twentieth Century. Widespread hunger has only been partially alleviated and one of the major factors has been the great loss inflicted by countless pests and diseases on crops. The agricultural industry has become largely dependent on chemical methods of crop protection. However, excessive use of pesticides has created problems and concerns for humans and the environment. This publication provides practical and comprehensive information on crop production and protection. It is an excellent teaching resource for teachers and students.
