Jatropha curcas, or physic nut, is a small tree that, in tropical climates, produces fruits with seeds containing ~38% oil. The physic nut has the potential to be highly productive and is amenable to subculture in vitro and to genetic modification. It also displays remarkable diversity and is relatively easy to cross hybridize within the genus. Thanks to these promising features, J. curcas is emerging as a promising oil crop and is gaining commercial interest among the biofuel research communities. However, as a crop, physic nut has been an economic flop since 2012, because the species was not fully domesticated and the average productivity was less than 2 t/ha, which is below the threshold of profitability.^7 t/ha could be reached and it is contributing to new markets in some countries. As such, it is important fro research to focus on the physiology and selective breeding of Jatropha . This book provides a positive global update on Jatropha, a crop that has suffered despite its promising agronomic and economic potential. The editors have used their collective expertise in agronomy, botany, selective breeding, biotechnology, genomics and bioinformatics to seek out high-quality contributions that address the bottleneck features in order to improve the economic trajectory of physic nut breeding.

Jatropha curcas or Physic Nut is a small tree (bush plant) that produces fruits under tropical climate. The fruits contained seed that are ~40% oil rich. This oil is excellent for biodiesel. The bush is a now new coming crop because it may cope with harsh environmental conditions such as semi-aridity and poor land. It is considered as one alternative for climate mitigation that does not compete with arable land normally dedicated to food crop and can be used to regain degraded land or fight desertification. This bush has been considered seriously by the international community only recently (~2006-2008), but worldwide scientists did an outstanding job to drawn Jatropha out of its semi-wild status and bring it on the industrial scene. Problems remains, but we have now a comprehensive picture of this crop and almost every technological challenged were addressed. From now, the job will have to concentrate on breeding in order to domesticate this species. Therefore, it is the right time to sum up worldwide contributions in a comprehensive book with a breeding looking to improve the chance of this plant to stabilize as a crop and to fulfil with the expectations that humans invested in it. A book with this perspective will help international community to give a step on.

Jatropha proves to be a promising Biofuel plantation and could emerge as a major alternative to diesel thus reducing our dependence on oil imports and saving the precious Foreign Exchange besides providing the much needed energy security. Jatropha oil displacing conventional fossil fuel makes the related project fully eligible. The Jatropha plantation primarily focuses cultivated green biodiesel as an alternate source of fuels that can propel engines, generators and transportation as well as power generation in the future and replace existing sources. The main factor that makes the major difference is the cost of the bio fuel that it can be made cheaper than the petro diesel and on a long term basis without affecting the operational economics. Ashwagandha (also called as, Indian Ginseng), Stevia a natural non caloric sweetener, Brahmi (brain tonic) and Jatamansi are the important herbs which have very good medicinal values. Ashwagandha increases the count of white blood cells and prepares the body to produce antigens against various infections and allergies. It is also considered as a tonic for the heart and lungs as its regular intake controls the blood pressure and regulates the heartbeat. It has a strong nourishing and protective effect on the nervous system. Ashwagandha has been used as a sedative, a diuretic, a rejuvenating tonic, an anti inflammatory agent, aphrodisiac and an immune booster. It is especially beneficial in stress related disorders such as arthritis, hypertension, diabetes, general debility, etc. It has also shown impressive results when used as stimulants for the immune system. It is considered as an adaptogen that stimulates the immune system and improves the memory. Stevia also known as the sweet leaf which is an all natural sweetener, derived from a plant called stevia rebaudiana. It has no calories, no carbohydrates, and it has a glycemic index of zero, which makes it the sweetener of choice for many diabetics all over the world. The herbs are carefully nurtured and harvested at only certain times of the year. Stevia comes in many forms; stevia supreme, stevita ultimate stevia, stevita liquid stevia, fruit flavoured stevia and many more. Brahmi is used as a herbal brain tonic, to rejuvenate the body, as a promoter of memory and as a nerve tonic. It improves memory and helps overcome the negative effects of stress. It is unique in its ability to invigorate mental processes whilst reducing the effects of stress and nervous anxiety. Brahmi induces a sense of calm and peace. Brahmi has gain worldwide fame as a memory booster and mind alertness promoter. Jatamansi has the power to promote awareness and calm the mind. It is a very useful herb for palpitation, tension, headaches, restlessness and is used for promoting awareness and strengthening the mind. It aids in balancing the body of all three Ayurvedic doshas. This herbs sedative properties increase awareness, as opposed to valerian that dulls the mind. Aromatic, antispasmodic, diuretic, emmenagogue, nervine, tonic, carminative, deobstruent, digestive stimulant, reproductive some of the properties of Jatamansi herb. This book is describes about the medical properties, important uses and applications, cultivation, chemical constituents, harvesting and post harvesting, yield and other properties of herbs like safed mulsi, brahmi, jatamansi, ashwagandha, senna, shatavari and more. This book also deals with biodiesel, biofuel and petro crops : an alternative to conventional fuels, the potential of jatropha curcas in rural development and environment protection, prospects of expanding market for use of jatropha oil, jatropha: potential as insecticide/pesticide etc. The present system of medicine is gradually gaining popularity mainly because of less or no toxic or side effects of herbal drugs. So, these herbs have very good future prospects globally. This book contains cultivation, processing and uses of Jatropha, Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), Stevia rebaudiana, Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) and Jatamansi (Nardostachys Jatmansi DC.). This book will prove to be an invaluable resource for researchers, technocrats, agriculturist, agriculture universities etc. TAGS Jatropha Cultivation, Jatropha Plantation, Jatropha Biodiesel in India, Cultivation and Use of Jatropha for Bio-Diesel, Jatropha Cultivation in India, Jatropha Plantation Business Plan, Jatropha Cultivation for Profit, Cultivation of Jatropha Curcas, Jatropha Curcas Plant, Jatropha Cultivation for Biodiesel, Jatropha Cultivation and Oil Production, Commercial Cultivation of Jatropha, Jatropha Plantation for Biodiesel Production, Biodiesel (Biofuel) from Jatropha Plant, Biodiesel and Jatropha Cultivation, Jatropha Biodiesel Business Plan, Jatropha Plantation Business Plan, Jatropha Plantation Business Plan in India, Jatropha Farming, Business Plan on Jatropha Curcas, Most Profitable Agriculture Business Ideas, Jatropha Farming, Production of Biodiesel From Jatropha Oil, Biodiesel Production from Jatropha Oil, Jatropha Biodiesel Production Process, Jatropha Biodiesel Production, Biodiesel From Jatropha Plant, Jatropha Biodiesel Production in India, Jatropha Biodiesel Business Plan, Processing of Jatropha Curcas, Manufacture of Biodiesel from Jatropha Oil, Biodiesel Production in India, Biodiesel Production, Purification of Plant Oil, Stevia Plant Farming, How to Grow Stevia, Sweet Herb Stevia Cultivation, Stevia Cultivation in India, Stevia Faming in India, Stevia Herb Plant Cultivation, Growing Stevia Plant, Stevia Plant Growing, Processing of Stevia, Stevia Cultivation and Extraction Process, How to Grow Stevia Herb Plant, Growing Stevia in Home Garden, Ashwagandha Cultivation, How to Grow Ashwagandha, Cultivation and Growing Ashwagandha, Guide to Growing Ashwagandha, Cultivation of Ashwagandha, Growing Ashwagandha, Ashwagandha Cultivation Guide, Opportunities in Cultivation of Ashwagandha, Ashwagandha Farming Business Plan, Medicinal Plant Ashwagandha, How to Plant Ashwagandha, Ashwagandha Cultivation for Profit, Chemical Constituents of Ashwagandha, Brahmi Cultivation, How to Grow Brahmi Plant, Brahmi Medicinal Plant Cultivation, Harvesting Brahmi, Brahmi Plant Farming, Cultivation of The Brahmi Plant, Growing Bacopa (Brahmi), Bacopa Monnieri Brahmi Cultivation, Brahmi Plant Cultivation, Growing Brahmi (Bacopa Monnieri), Ways to Grow Bacopa Plants, Cultivation of Medicinal Plants in India, Ayurvedic Plantation Business, How to Start Brahmi Growing Business, How to Grow Safed Musli (Chlorophytum Borivilianum), Safed Musli Cultivation, Safed Musli Farming, Safed Musli Cultivation and Processing, Safed Musli Business Plan, Safed Musli Farming Business Plan, Sarpgandha Cultivation, Sarpagandha Cultivation Business Plan, Sarpagandha Farming, Cultivation of Sarpagandha, Cultivation of Rauvolfia Serpentina, Rauvolfia Serpentina Cultivation in India, Post Harvest Management of Sarpagandha, Commercial Sarpagandha Farming, Cultivation of Senna, Processing of Senna, Senna Cultivation in India, Cultivation and Processing of Senna, Process for Grow Senna, How to Start Senna Growing Business, Cultivation of Senna in India, Asparagus (Shatavari) Cultivation, Shatavari Cultivation, Shatavari Farming, Shatavari Farming in India, Shatavari Cultivation in India, How to Grow Asparagus ( Shatavari), Shatavari Plant in India, Shatavari Farming Business Plan, Npcs, Niir, Process Technology Books, Business Consultancy, Business Consultant, Project Identification and Selection, Preparation of Project Profiles, Startup, Business Guidance, Business Guidance to Clients, Startup Project, Startup Ideas, Project for Startups, Startup Project Plan, Business Start-Up, Business Plan for Startup Business, Great Opportunity for Startup, Small Start-Up Business Project, Best Small and Cottage Scale Industries, Startup India, Stand Up India, Small Scale Industries, New Small Scale Ideas for Stevia Cultivation, Safed Musli Cultivation Ideas You Can Start on Your Own, Small Scale Sarpagandha Cultivation, Guide to Starting and Operating Small Business, Business Ideas for Sarpagandha Farming, How to Start Jatropha Cultivation, Starting Brahmi Cultivation, Start Your Own Ashwagandha Cultivation, Shatavari Cultivation Business Plan, Business Plan for Ashwagandha Cultivation, Small Scale Industries in India, Stevia Cultivation Based Small Business Ideas in India, Small Scale Industry You Can Start on Your Own, Business Plan for Small Scale Industries, Set Up Jatropha Cultivation, Profitable Small Scale Manufacturing, How to Start Small Business in India, Free Manufacturing Business Plans, Small and Medium Scale Manufacturing, Profitable Small Business Industries Ideas, Business Ideas for Startup
