Pandey College of Horticulture and Forestry College of Horticulture and Forestry Rani Lakshmi Bai Central Agricultural University, Jhansi-284003 Vice-Chancellor RLBCAU Jhansi-284003 Prof. Arvind Kumar FOREWORD India is a leading vegetable producing country in the world with an annual production of 184.9 million MT in an estimated area of 10.26 million ha, having the productivity of 18.43 MT/ ha (NHB, 2018-19), ranking next to China. In the recent past, the country has made quantum jump in production but our productivity in most of the vegetables is low as compared to China and other leading vegetable producing countries. The higher productivity in these countries is due to the coverage of maximum area under hybrids unlike open pollinated varieties in India. The area under hybrids varies with the crop, season and availability of hybrid seeds in our country for example, area under hybrid tomato is 40 %, cabbage 68.6%, brinjal 82% and okra covers around 10 percent whereas, a country like Japan is having entire area under hybrid in most of the vegetables.

However, the Kerala Agricultural University became operational only on February 1st 1972 when, the then existing two educational and 21 research institutions administered by the Departments of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry of the Government of Kerala, were brought under the umbrella of KAU for facilitating the sustainable and accelerated development of Agriculture in the State. The KAU is the primary and the principal instrumentality of the Kerala State in providing human resources, and skills and technology, required for the sustainable development of its Agriculture, defined broadly encompassing all production activities based on land and water, including crop production, forestry and co-operatives by conducting, interfacing and integrating education, research and extension in these spheres of economic endeavour. With the division of KAU to form new universities of Kerala Veterinary and Animal Sciences University and Kerala University of Fisheries and Ocean Studies during 2010-11, the number of institutions under KAU was reduced to six Colleges, six Regional Agricultural Research Stations (RARS), 15 Research Stations, seven Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVK) and 16 other units. The University offers diploma, graduate, post-graduate and doctoral programmes in almost all disciplines and specialities related to Agriculture, Horticulture, Forestry, Co-operation, Banking, Management, Agricultural Engineering, Food Engineering and allied sciences through its three faculties (Agriculture, Agricultural Engineering and Forestry), six constituent colleges and 31 departments.
