Integrated farming utilizes cropping patterns which involve the raising of crops, animals, and or trees. A labour intensive integrated farming practice includes crops, duck, fish etc. on small-holdings, based on maximum recycling principles. With appropriate crop combinations and proper agronomic practices. integrated farming will not only increase grain yields and ensure economic returns, but it will also make available sufficient livestock feed and maintain ...
Farming is the art, science or practice of producing food, feed, fibre and many other desired goods by the systematic raising of plants and animals. Traditional systems of crops and livestock farming are not static. They adapt to changing circumstances such as increased population pressure, use of fertilizers and changing consumption patterns. farmers, governments, and national and international agencies all have a role in this change, often by keeping track of ...

Bioactive compounds are extra-nutritional constituents that typically occur in small quantities in foods. Many thousands of these bioactive compounds have been identified in commonly eaten foods and there has been a lot of research interest into their putative health benefits. Virtually all foods undergo some form of processing before they are ready for consumption. Processing of fresh fruits and vegetables results in changes in composition of the bioactive food ...
