This book contains comprehensive information on the production and processing of oilseed crops with an emphasis on the tropics and subtropics. It describes the new developments in oilseed technology as well as the most recent trends in world production and trade. This book should be of interest to anyone involved directly or indirectly with oilseed production and processing, but is especially relevant to researchers, processors and agricultural advisers in tropical areas. Educators would find the book quite useful as a supplemental reference for introductory and upper-level courses.
A breadth of information is presented on production, processing and merchandising of oil crops used throughout the world as food and for medicinal, household and industrial purposes. Emphasis is placed on the agronomic, social, economic and practical aspects of producing oilseed crops in tropical countries, many of which are still developing.
