  • Safe Procurement and Production Manual a Systems Approach for the Production of Healthy Nursery Stock
    Safe Procurement and Production Manual A Systems Approach for the Production of Healthy Nursery Stock By John A. Griesbach, Jennifer L. Parke, Gary A. Chastagner, Niklaus J. Grünwald and John Aguirre Revised January 2012 What is the ‘systems approach’ — and why do I need it? When it comes to preventing the introduction and spread of plant pests and pathogens, a proactive approach that intelligently targets areas of highest risk is better than reacting to things as they happen. The goal of a systems approach isn‘t perfection — it’s significant risk reduction. By making your nursery less susceptible to the introduction and spread of regulated pests and plant pathogens, you will be able to reduce the risk of quarantines and crop destruction.

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.
