Temperate horticulture is a significant aspect of horticulture as it is limited to the hilly regions of a country. It represents a diverse group of fruit crops that differ physiologically from the sub-tropical and tropical fruit crops grown in other regions. Temperate horticulture also has immense potential for providing off-season and exotic vegetables and flowers all year round. This book, published to commemorate the centenary year of the Indian Agricultural Research Institute, aims to highlight the current status of temperate horticulture in India. It covers topics such as biotechnology and bioinformatics, genetic resources and manipulation, cropping patterns, drip irrigation, hill horticulture, and the economics of temperate horticulture. Contributions from scientists at IARI, Dr. YS Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, NBPGR, CIPHET, CPRI, and various research centers make this book a comprehensive handbook for temperate horticulture. It will serve as a valuable reference for researchers in the field of horticulture and help in addressing problems and planning future strategies.
