About the Book

The legumes crops : moth bean, clusterbean, horse gram, and cow pea are generally grown in fragile lands of Arid regions of Rajasthan, Gujarat, Haryana, Maharashtra, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. The research work for improvement of these crops is continuing by the concerned states since 1950. In the 1977 the first workshop for clusterbean was organized at CAZRI, Jodhpur, after some years in 1992 the same was called as All India Coordinated Research Project on Arid Legumes. Accordingly the arid legume workers met under the banner of First National Symposium on 15-16th May, 2002 at CCS, HAU, Hisar entitled Advances in Arid Legumes Research and Development. These papers were presented on all key issues of research : extention, trade marketing, export and other development activities which have been brought up in the form of proceedings in divided into seven themes The present compilation on ``Advances in Arid Legumes Research would be useful to those engaged in cause of Arid Legumes improvement in India. Themes Genetic Improvement and Genetic Resources/ Crop production and cropping systems / Quality improvement and value addition/ Management of abiotic stresses / Integrated plant protection measures / Products development and export / Socio economic constraints in technology adoption.

About the Author

Dr. D. Kumar is currently working as Principal Scientist (Plant Breeding) and is holding the charge of Project Coordinator, All India Coordinated Research Project on Arid Legumes, at Central Arid Zone Research Institute, Jodhpur. He has edited 9 books and has published more than 120 full-length research papers in different journals of national and international reputes. He has also written more than 20 chapters for different books and Proceedings of the Symposia. His main field of specialization is Breeding for Abiotic Stress Tolerance with special reference to drought and salinity in arid pulses and repeseed-mustard.

Dr. N.B. Singh is currently working as Assistant Director general (Oilseeds & Pulses) at the ICAR, New Delhi. Dr. Singh is Ph.D. in Plant Breeding from the reputed University of Minnesota, USA. He has served Rajendra Agricultural University, Pusa (Bihar) as Professor of Plant Breeding for more than one decade. As distinguished Professor, he has served International Crops Research Institute for Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), Hyderabad as visiting scientist for more than three years. He has contributed a number of research papers in the area of Pulse Crops Improvement in national and international journals of repute. He has long experience of working at ICAR, New Delhi as Assistant Director General of Pulses and Oilseeds. He is well recognized for his research contributions in both pulses and oilseeds.
