This book has been written primarily for the students of Horticulture/Agriculture, research workers and growers, and provides useful information on Medicinal and Aromatic plants of Umbelliferae to develop improved technology to enhance the productivity of these plants. There are a number of books on Medicinal and Aromatic plants containing general information about their history and importance but they lack in production technology. However, a few books contain research-based information and no doubt these are excellent. The writing of this book was originally undertaken at the invitation of University Grants Commission, New Delhi as a part of theft programme for the preparation of university level books by Indian authors. Umbelliferae family comprises about 300 genera and 3000 species of herbs some of which are economically well known.
