AGRICULTURAL BIOTECHNOLOGY AND ITS POTENTIAL TO FEED THE GROWING WORLD  Ghulam Mohyuddin Wani and Paras Wani  Almost all reviews and application procedures of the plant animal biotechnologies stand reviewed(wani,2009).It is said biotechnology may play wonder in feeding the growing world ,however except west and a few nations in a developing  gare have the confidence of using biotechnology for production of grains. As the protocols of plant production through tissue culture is in use. The gene transfer for increased production is facing technical problems .In this paper we shall discuss some of these issues.        The production capacity of a crop is a composite gene effect and not a single gene effect. The sorting over of the genes is well known and hardy Weinberger formula to analyze the combines gene effects is well known. [more..]

Agricultural biotechnology is any technique in which living organisms, or parts of organisms are altered to make or modify agricultural products, to improve crops, or develop microbes for specific uses in agricultural processes. Simply put, when the tools of biotechnology are applied to agriculture, it is termed as "agricultural biotechnology". Genetic engineering is also a part of agricultural biotechnology in today's world. It is now possible to carry out genetic manipulation and transformation on almost all plant species, including all the world's major crops. Plant transformation is one of the tools involved in agricultural biotechnology, in which genes are inserted into the genetic structure or genome of plants. The two most common methods of plant transformation are Agrobacterium Transformation - methods that use the naturally occurring bacterium; and Biolistic Transformation - involving the use of [more..]

KASHMIR CENTRIC FOOD SECURITY VISION 1, THE CROPPING SCENARIO By prof DR GHULAM MOHYUDDIN WANI This series of our articles shall be Jammu and Kashmir agricultural development  centric. It may have repetition in some or the other  of our articles in this and other websites.It  is designed for the Jammu and kashmir state but may have relevence for the whole world too,espacilly similar ecosystems. INTRODUCTION Higher productivity gains can be achieved through application of technology and production recommendations at farmer’s field. We have 65% small and marginal farmers whose awareness potential is low. The production system prevailing with these farmers is a mixed farming or composite farming. In contrast to USA and European agriculture our necessity is to increase “Crop opportunities” RATHER than COMODITY production gains. MIXED FARMING MODULES ARE OUR NEED       A mixed Agriculture University and Education set ups is [more..]
