Agriculture is a broad subject. After passing graduation, higher degrees are done in specialized field of Agriculture so there is no need to read all Agriculture subjects in M. Sc. and Ph. D. But for the preparation of various agriculture competition examinations students have to read all the basic books of Agriculture to cover syllabus. That time most of students don’t have all the necessary books and too much time to read them. Therefore to overcome these problems we write this book through reading various books and other sources of Agriculture to cover brief and best information of subjects (Agronomy, Genetics and Plant Breeding, Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry, Agricultural Microbiology, Physiology, Agricultural Entomology, Plant Pathology, Horticulture, Agricultural Economics, Agricultural Extension And Agricultural Statistics) in one book. The students will treat this book as a competitive book not a text book for various degree courses.

From 2001 to 2006, Richard L. Cates Jr. interviewed senior members of more than 30 families living in and around Arena township, a small community in southern Wisconsin. He asked them about growing up in rural America and their connection to a way of life that is vanishing in the twenty-first century. The result, Voices from the Heart of the Land, is a collection of reminiscences, observations, and opinions celebrating the stewardship of the land and the values of the stewards. Of course, as Cates points out, these are nothing less than “our core human values—integrity, commitment, responsibility, citizenship, self-determination, decency, kindness, love, and hope.”
