Malayali compiles e-book on agriculture

The world's first electronic book on agriculture, The Agronomy and Economy of Important Tree Crops of the Developing World, compiled by K P Prabhakaran Nair, has been chosen to be kept in the British Library in London and the Congressional State Library in Washington.

The Elsevier Academic Press-Macmillan combined, a major publisher in science, had commissioned Professor K P Prabhakaran Nair to compile the electronic book, which took him nearly five years to complete. The book covers 10 important crops of the developing world. It also discusses a revolutionary soil management technique developed by him. Known as 'Nutrient Buffer Power Concept, the technique has been developed after working with European, African and Asian soils. The new concept is expected to be a major boost to the Indian agronomy.
