"High-value crops are non-staple plants that give much higher return per unit area than staple crops. Diversification and investing towards high-value crops can potentially increase farm incomes to make high-value crops more attractive to new and potential farmers. Though staple agricultural products are necessary, identification of and investing in high-value plant agriculture could enhance the income to the prospective farmers, making them more attractive as a livelihood or profession to small-scale agricultural farmers to commercialize their product in global market, as the demand for high-value food and other products has been increasing day by day. This new volume explores the biotechnological applications for the unique high-value crops in responseto the impending high-value agriculture revolution, which will make agriculture attractive and challenging venture to the youths. The book discusses traditional knowledge, nutritional value, phytochemical activity, value addition quality, and postharvestmanagement of some select unique high-value crops, including black ginger, bastard oleaster, Swertia chirayita, Garcinia, Parkia timoriana (or tree bean), King chili, Chenopodium (or goosefoots), sea buckthorn, broom grass, lichens, and others. High-Value Plants: Novel Insights and Biotechnological Advances provides important information for small-scale farmers and agricultural and horticultural professionals to consider diversifying into non-traditional, high-value, agricultural crops, an important areaof potential income growth in rural areas"--
