"Principles of Tropical Horticulture" leads the reader through a
background of environmental influences and plant physiology to an
understanding of production and post-harvest systems, environmental
adaptation techniques and marketing strategies. Focusing on the
principles behind production practices and their scientific basis,
rather than detailed biological traits of each crop, this text
outlines successes and failures in practices to date and sets out
how the quantity and quality of horticultural produce can improve
in the future. Case studies are frequently used and chapters cover
the production of vegetables, fruit and ornamental crops, including
temperate zone crops adapted to grow in the tropics.
