The second edition of the book "Statistics for Agricultural Sciences" was well received by students and staff for whom it was intended. The author has thoroughly revised and updated the second edition and included SPSS data analysis Procedure for all the popular statistical methods and experimental designs in view of the latest trend of using statistical packages in data analysis using live examples.The author also included new chapter 21 on "Econometrics" to cater to the needs of M.Sc. and Ph.D. students of Agriculture Economics and Business Management/Administration.This book is also useful to all the P.G. and Ph.D. students of Biology and Bio-technology students. This book also serves as useful reference book to staff members for guiding M.Sc., Ph.D. students in statistical analysis for their thesis work and also for their personal research projects.Salient Features of Third EditionNew chapter on Econometrics is addedData Analysis using SPSS Package is presented for most of the popular statistical Methods and Experimental DesignsThe entire text is thoroughly revised and updatedSome more new worked out examples are included for the benefit of students

The book is designed for the undergraduate and postgraduate students of agriculture and biology and the analysts of the laboratories of the line Departments who need to undertake the analysis of soil, plant and water samples. Basics of analytical chemistry are adequately dealt, primarily because the analysis of soil, plant and water comes under the domain of the subject of analytical chemistry, and a command in the subject stated is certain to add to the mastery on the skill of the task.           The book has been divided in six Parts of which the first one is for the fundamentals of quantitative analysis. The second and third ones are on different aspects and preparation of standard solutions of the reagents that find frequent use in a soil plant water analysis laboratory, and spectrophotometry, respectively. The remaining three Parts are devoted to the analysis of soil, plant and water samples in the sequence as mentioned. Each Part is again divided into Chapters, wherever warranted.        Derivation of a formula used in calculations following an analysis is explained in lucid terms. Illustrations are adequate for the purpose of comprehension. A good number of model calculations with worked out solutions is aimed at enabling the users of the book in handling such problems at ease.

Modeling and Computational simulation applied to engineering is a field that brings together the power of computers, physical sciences and engineering practices. To solve different problems in engineering using computer simulation, it is necessary to model them, which represents a real-world phenomenon as a set of mathematical equations. This book deals with models involving simple Algebraic equation(s), Single & multiple nonlinear equation(s), Single & Multiple Ordinary Differential Equations and Partial Differential Equations of parabolic type, is intended for UG/PG students, Researchers and faculty.          The collection of numerous problems from various sources aimed to apply different numerical methods in the subject areas such as Heat transfer, Fluid flow, Thermodynamics, Mass transfer, Reaction engineering, equipment design and process simulation.           This book gives hands-on exposure on procedures and solutions using various computational tools such as MS-Excel┬«, MATLAB┬«, CHEMCAD┬« and COMSOL┬« dealing with chemical and pharmaceutical applications.

Soil science and Agricultural chemistry is one of the major subjects in Agricultural Sciences. It became a deciding subject to become candidature for most of the aspirants for competitive exams in Agriculture.

Climate Smart agriculture has now become a global policy initiative for enhancing the productivity and resilience of agricultural ecosystem functions. This book (Capacity Bilding for Climate Smart Agriculture) provides essential information on impacts of climate change on agriculture and aims at strengthening knowledge base of agricultural extension functionaries, building institutional capacities, leveraging financial resources both state and central and developing strategies for climate smart agriculture.The publication is a cogent, lucid and well structured compilation of material related to climate smart agriculture.

Cereals, pulses and fodders are considered as important source of food grains and livestock feed respectively, play pivotal role in Indian economy. Combination of cereals and pulses is said to be a balanced one as they supply protein on mutually inclusive basis. Pulses are chief source of protein and practical means of eradicating malnutrition among children and nursing mothers in India. The per capita availability of food grains is decelerating especially in pulses. Combined ration of cereal and legume forages is equally important for harnessing the livestock production in India. The qualitative and quantitative production of these components depend not only on scientific way of their cultivation but also methodical package of practices followed by cultivators. Keeping this in view, this manual provides a systematic way of cultivating these crops at field level especially for those without any farming background. The contents are crisp and this manual is useful for undergraduate students across the country. This manual is first of its kind in India for the course “Crop Production (Cereals, Millets, Pulses and fodders)”.

In this manual an attempt has been made to discuss complex experimental protocols in an easy and step-by-step manner, which will be very useful for the beginners. At the end of each chapter, exercises have been given with solving examples.The manual consists of five chapters viz., Soil sampling and processing, Fundamental properties of soil, Hydraulic properties of soil, Solute transport through soil and Soil quality parameters.In order to limit the volume of the manual, detailed theoretical aspects has been avoided and instead presented in a short and simple manner.

Corporations have long passed the buck of training people in employability, soft skills and personality development to the educational institutions. Textbooks must support and supplement the efforts of teachers and the students. Texts must find new ways of projecting the subject reflecting inter-dependent nature of personality development, career planning, soft skills, employability, and English language skills, the lingua franca of international community and link Indian language.
