"In the present age, competitive examinations have become a regular feature. At every stage, from seeking admissions in higher academic institutions to securing a good placement after studies, a student is required to clear one or the other competitive examination. However, though all aspire, it is only the few well-equipped ones who achieve the target. The field of Agricultural Science is no exception to this. The present book 'Basic Concepts of Vegetable Science' aims at helping the Indian students in getting admission in reputed institutions and fellowships and jobs in the field of horticulture. This volume has been designed to cover the courses offered by various Indian Universities for graduate and post graduate courses. An attempt has been made in the book to deliver the core of the subject in a concise, easily assimilated form suited for success in JRF, SRF, ARS, NET and SET. It may serve as a workbook for those opting for horticulture as one of their optional subjects in state administrative services."
