The present study was carried out with a view to study the growth pattern and instability in seed production, future of demand and supply, economics and processing of groundnut seeds and problems of seed industry in Gujarat. A sample of 51 farmers was selected purposively from the five talukas of Junagadh district. The primary data about cost of production and marketing were collected for the agricultural year 2002-03. Secondary data regarding area and production of quality seeds for most of the crops were collected from published sources for the period 1986-2001. The primary analysis of data was done by using tabular analysis. Compound growth rates for area, production and productivity were estimated for the state as a whole as well as for different seed producing agencies. Instability in area and production of seeds was measured by using coefficient of variation. The demand and supply projection of seeds for different crops was made through using trend equation. The broad findings of the study revealed that the compound growth rates found positive for area and production of quality seeds for the state as a whole but for yield it was found negative.

Despite having a good scope of vegetable seeds as high value & low volume products, their profitable production is still elusive for the farmers. In this regard, a study was carried out to assess the economics of vegetable seed production and marketing in the Kavrepalanchowk district of Nepal. The primary data were collected through face-to-face interviews using a semi-structured survey questionnaire. For the interview, a sampling frame of all seed producers in the district was prepared and using the simple random sampling technique, sixty seed-producers were selected. Further, ten traders were also surveyed with a semi-structured questionnaire. The study found the highest benefit-cost ratio in tomato (3.36), followed by kidney bean (1.55) and cress (1.34). Only a single marketing channel was reported in the study site. The farmers sell their produces to a cooperative which eventually sells the seeds to a seed company. The limited irrigation facilities, incidence of disease and pests, and limited market information have been reported as the major hindrances in the study area. Thus, the findings show the potential to scale up vegetable seed production by enhancing market linkage and better collaboration between various value chain actors.

The book serves as a major source of information on all the cultivated oilseeds and major tree borne and minor oilseeds grown globally. Composition, characteristics, properties and utility of different oilseeds and their constituents, namely, oil, protein, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins and Phytochemical in food and non-food sectors including medicine has been covered in detail. The book also deals with post-harvest technology and processing of oilseeds to obtain good quality products like vegetable oil and oilcakes. The processing aspects like ghani, expeller, extrusion, solvent, and SC-CO2 extraction along with the refining of oils have been discussed. Oilseeds and their quality especially, the nutritional quality of oils, oilcakes, oleo-chemicals and preparation of edible products from groundnut, soybean sesame, sunflower, Niger and coconut have been discussed and presented in the book. Anti-nutrients, when present interfere with the digestion process as also the health of humans and animals. Hence methods of reduction/removal of anti-nutrients like phenolics, protease inhibitors, ricin, glucosinolates and aflatoxins etc. have also been covered in detail in the book. Evaluation of quality is important for understanding and utilization of any commodity. Keeping this aspect in view, methods of analysis of oil, protein, sugars, minerals, vitamins and anti-nutrients have been presented in the on procedures. This book is thus is a comprehensive coverage of all aspects of oilseeds and their quality. It will be highly useful to students, researchers, producers, processors and policy planners.
