Carbohydrates in Grain Legume Seeds: Improving Nutritional Quality and Agronomic Characteristics / Cliff L Hedley (2001)

Public ISBD Titre : Carbohydrates in Grain Legume Seeds: Improving Nutritional Quality and Agronomic Characteristics Type de document : Ouvrage Auteurs : Cliff L Hedley, Auteur Editeur : Wallingford : Cabi Publishing Année de publication : 2001 Importance : 322 p ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-85199-467-3 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : [Thesagri] carbone [Thesagri] composition des aliments [Thesagri] légumineuse Index. décimale : HC-1 Biologie végétale Note de contenu : The compounds making up the dry weight of seeds play a major role in determining the nutritional quality, and ultimately the uses of the economic value of the seed. The carbohydrate fraction can be divided into starch fibre and soluble carbohydrates. This book covers the chemistry, nutritional value, physiology, processing and breeding/biotechnology of carbohydrates in grain legume seeds. There is currently no book available which covers the strategies for improving carbohydrates in grain legumes which takes into account both nutritional and agricultural requirements. Thisbooks fills that gap.

Organic farming: an international history / W. Lockeretz (2007)

Public ISBD Titre : Organic farming: an international history Type de document : Ouvrage Auteurs : W. Lockeretz Editeur : Wallingford : Cabi Publishing Année de publication : 2007 Importance : 282 p. Format : 24 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-85199-833-6 Prix : 118,23 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : [Thesagri] agriculture biologique [Thesagri] conformité [Thesagri] développement économique [Thesagri] histoire [Thesagri] législation [Thesagri] organisation internationale Note de contenu : Beginning as a small protest to the industrialization of agriculture in the 1920s, organic farming has become a significant force in agricultural policy, marketing, and research. No longer dismissed as unscientific and counterproductive, organic techniques are now taken seriously by farmers, consumers, scientists, food processors, marketers, and regulatory agencies in much of the world. Organic farming is both dynamic and forward-looking but is also rooted in tradition. It is these traditions that can provide valuable starting points in debates over how organic farming should meet new challenges such as globalization, the emergence of new production techniques, and growing concern over equity and social justice in agriculture. Complementing general discussions with case histories of important organic institutions in various countries, this comprehensive discussion is the first to explore the development of organic agriculture. Part 1: Origins and Principles; Chapter 1: What Explains the Rise of Organic Farming?; Chapter 2: The Origins of Organic Farming; Chapter 3: Organic Values; Chapter 4: The Science of Organic Farming; Chapter 5: The Evolution of Organic Practice; Part 2: Policies and Markets; Chapter 6: The Development of Governmental Support for Organic Farming in Europe; Chapter 7: The Organic Market; Chapter 8: Development of Standards for Organic Farming; Part 3: Organizations and Institutions; Chapter 9: IFOAM and the History of the International Organic Movement; Chapter 10: The Soil Association; Chapter 11: Ecological Farmers Association and the Success of Swedish Organic Agriculture; Chapter 12: MAPO and the Argentinian Organic Movement; Chapter 13: NASAA and Organic Agriculture in Australia; Chapter 14: FiBL and Organic Research in Switzerland; Chapter 15: The Organic Trade Association; Part 4: Challenges; Chapter 16: A Look toward the Future.
