The students who prepare their short notes on important aspects will find the entire such matter at one place in this book. Thus, the book would be a great help to the students competing for various examination like NET/JRF/SRF/SAUs entrance and other competitive examinations as well as students pursuing different courses in the agricultural universities on this subject.
