This third edition includes summaries at salient points within the first six chapters, dealing with the principles and practice of vegetable seed production. A suggested further reading list is provided at the conclusion of each of the 16 chapters. The general updating of this third edition has included more detail on 'organic' seed and its production, and also considerations on genetically modified organisms. The increased links between vegetables produced from true botanical seed and those predominantly propagated vegetatively (i.e. the resulting planting material which is often referred to as 'seed') have been added to this edition in Appendix 1.

Many Asian farmers still need to learn the techniques required to produce vegetable seeds by themselves. Seed production of vegetables is not as simple as it is for many self-pollinated staple crops, including beans and some cereal grains. Specific techniques are required for every type of vegetable. Aside from this, F1 hybrid vegetable seeds are now prevailing in the market, and farmers must be informed that the seeds obtained from the harvest of these crops cannot be used for sowing future crops. This manual is made in an effort to help extension workers who are directly in contact with farmers

Quality seed is the fore most and most cost effective input for crop production. It is time for researchers as well as policy makers to reorient the strategy of vegetable seed production in India. Now it is not only a question of providing enough vegetables for a balance diet, but also to produces good quality seeds that are acceptable and competitive in the international market. The book Seed Production Technology of Vegetables is intended as a reference for all concerned with the basic vegetable seed production technologland requirements, field inspection, field and seed standards, brief cultural practices, important varieties/hybrids, classification history, climatic factors affecting seed production, botany and floral biology, mode of reproduction, principles of seed production, techniques for hybrid seed production, quality of seed, seed germination, seed policy, seed certification, seed act and seed rules. This book may be of great utility and intend to be a better guide to the students, teachers, research scientist, extension worker Policy makers, various seed companies, horticulture department, vegetable seeds producers and farming community as a whole who directly and indirectly are engaged in the production of quality seeds.

Good quality seed is the most important component in production technology of crops. Farmers in India are aware of the importance of good quality seeds and trade liberalization has resulted in flourishing of vegetable seed industry in India. Seed production has become a lucrative business for the private sector which is evidenced from mushrooming of seed companies in India. While the public sector is by and large concentrating on the low-cost technology such as production of open pollinated varieties, private firms are after the production of F1 hybrids which ensure market protection. Tuber crops are important from food security point of view and seed tuber pr oduction of virus free potato is a challenging task. Since most of the spices are vegetatively propagated, ensuring virus free quality planting materials require knowledge and skill. Theory and practice of seed production of vegetable crops, tubers and spices need to be updated and available for all stake holders in seed industry and farm sector.
