Improving inherent potential of crops for increased natural and applied inputs use efficiency, stress tolerance and favourable proximate composition changes through genetic manipulations is one of the several approaches to sustain high productivity along with high quality and nutritive value in different agro-ecological conditions to increase the global per capita food supply and hence for reducing hunger and nutrition insecurity. The demand for healthy foods and food supplements are on rise. Even in countries with high malnutrition and hunger, around 25-30 per cent of food may be wasted due to inefficient harvesting and storage. The amounts of post harvest losses of fresh produce are huge in developing countries and this also adds up t the growing problem of food insecurity. This book Production and Processing of Food Crops for Value Addition: technology and Genetic Options brings together a good collection of contributions on various basic and applied aspects of crop improvement for tolerance to abiotic and biotic stresses, accumulation of favourable components, heterosis, unconventional crops; Nutrition and quality aspects of food products from wheat, triticale, apple and problems due to nutrition deficiency, food processing covering post harvest processing for development of value added products for instant uses and enhancing shelf life of products and textural and nutri.…
