Seth,
M.K. and Sunil Jaswal size: 15 cm x 22 cm weight: 0.500 kg (ISBN : 81-7089-303-8) SUMMARY Shimla is rich in biodiversity and wild plant resources. It has been explored botanically by many workers, but the economic uses of plants of Shimla have not been enumerated. Only few plants of Shimla are commercially important, others less known plants can be put to various uses according to their local usage and on the basis of relevant information from the available literature on such plants, information has been accumulated on plant resources from different parts of H.P., but not from Shimla. Keeping in view the ibid, all the possible uses of plants have been collected from various sources and are mentioned against each species in the present ‘An Enumeration of Plant Resources of Shimla (Himachal Pradesh)'. |

Dr. Shankar, R. & Dr. Rawat, M.S. The
present monograph deals with an introductory account of land topography,
geology and climate along with the people and the life of the tribal
inhabitants. The floristic vegetation is distributed into tropical, sub
tropical, temperate and alpine types, which included various types of
plants used as food and vegetables in different localities by local
inhabitants. The exhaustive exploration of medicinal plants and folklore medicines in different parts of the state of Arunachal Pradesh in different seasons from 1988 to 2006 have been described in detail which covers the medicinal plants collected from various fields under natural climatic conditions, plants under cultivation and the folklore for which Latin name families, their Sanskrit name, Hindi and local names for each plants along with salient features, period of flowing and fruiting distribution and uses are described in brief. The method for the use of folklore medicines, have also been given in detail. Separate chapter has been used for the plants collected from the cultivated fields in different parts of the state under studies. Special attention has also been made to identify the rare and threatened medicinal plants on the localities and some strategies for the conservation of such valuable wealth has also been emphasized in the monograph. As per the requirement the monograph is supplemented with maps, line drawings and photographs. Separate chapters have been used for wasteland management and commercial prospects of medicinal plants in Arunachal Pradesh. |

Dr. Sharma, A. Plantation Protection Practices In Organic Farming Rs. 2500.00 The
key to successful organic food production lies in plant protection from
various biotic enemies. In the book entitled “Plant Protection
Practices in Organic Farming” a sincere effort is being made to
provide the society all the practices which can be used in reducing the
pest populations from our agricultural/ horticultural ecosystems and in
turn may also reduce the pesticide pressure being exerted on our
environment. In addition there are some chapters which do not directly
address the issues pertaining to the plant protection but are of immense
importance for the management of a healthy crop so as to get better
returns. In the first chapter the authors have mentioned the importance
of the organic farming and why it is so much needed in the present day
scenario. This chapter also covers the information on the various
guidelines set for practicing Organic farming. In the second chapter the
pesticide residues pertaining in different crops are highlighted. Third
and fourth chapters contain exhaustive information on the biocontrol
agents of various insect pests and the biopesticides available in the
market to manage these pests respectively. In the fifth chapter the
concept of nutrient management for the plants has been discussed.
Sixth chapter is based on the information pertaining to the
protected cultivation and the different structures used in this type of
cultivation. Seventh and eighth chapters deal with the insect pests and
diseases encountered in the poly houses respectively and their
management without the use of chemical pesticides. The insect pests and
disease of vegetables, temperate fruits, subtropical fruits and potatoes
are covered in the separate chapters. Insect pests management of spices
and cereal crops are covered in chapters sixteen and seventeen. The
eighteenth chapter is on cultivation and utilization of medicinal
plants. It covers the aspect of medicinal plants used as biopesticides
against various insects. In the nineteenth chapter the wild fruits are
discussed as they can be an important source in increasing the
biodiversity in an area. After growing a good crop it is important to
get good returns, and for that the yield is to be taken to a good
market. The time between the harvest and the use of yield is very
important as an appreciable portion is lost in this transit. The next
chapter deals with how to minimize the post harvest losses in different
crops. In the modern world biotechnology is playing an important role in
the human life. The plant science is also not devoid of this important
science. The transgenic plants and GMO's are important in the plant
science. In the last chapter, role of biotechnology has been discussed
in reference to the plant protection and its role in producing a crop
organically.
All these chapters are of immense importance to the Farmers,
Orchadists and Plant scientists and can act as a valuable source filling
the gap that is prevailing in the know how producing the crop
organically and to protect it from its enemies i.e. insects and
diseases. |

Sharma, A. NEW A Textbook of Forest Trees Entomology Rs. 795.00 (Pub. 2007) pp. viii+194 (ISBN: 81-7089-350-x) SUMMARY The book entitled “Insect pests and diseases of important forests trees” is a maiden attempt to provide a document to which contains information about insect pests as well as diseases of some important tree species. It is a sincere attempt to provide the basic information about these two important components, which form an important part of the ecosystem to the people who are interested in the study of insects and diseases associated with the forest trees. Up till now there is no document as such which contains information about the tree species useful in agro forestry systems. This lacuna will be filled to some extent by this book. This is an attempt keeping in view the requirements of Under Graduate and Post Graduate students perusing studies in Forestry. This book can also be helpful to the personal of forest department who are not professional entomologists but encounter pest problems in their day to day routine. They will be able to identify some of the commonly encountered insects in the forests by taking help of this book particularly the coloured plates in the book. This book is a maiden attempt to give collective information about insect pest and diseases of timber fodder and common agro forestry trees. The books earlier written have lot of information on the forest insects but there was need of a book which along with the information of insects can also give measures for their control and IPM in forestry. Along with discussions on biology and control of some common insect pests, a detailed discussion has been made on IPM in Forests and monitoring of pest populations. As we all know monitoring is a pre requisite for successful management of a pest. So this part has also been discussed in length in the book. The classification of insects is also discussed in a very precise form. |
