Vegetable crop production is the production of vegetables for commercial purposes. Knowledge of seed variety and good use of water resources is vital for vegetable crop management. The study of vegetable crops help produce knowledge on horticultural practices, biodiversity and conservation. Bioengineering research has ensured continuous access of high yield variety seeds to farmers as well as to homes. This book will also provide interesting topics for research which interested readers can take up in the field of genetic engineering, production of fertilizers as well as pest management. Topics included in the book equip researchers and experts with details on plant morphology, climatic and soil requirements, and methods of crop culture. A number of latest researches have been included to keep the readers up-to-date with the global concepts in this area of study.
