The book entitled Objective Horticulture has arisen from the fact that there is no objective type book covering all disciplines of horticulture fruit science, vegetable Science and Floriculture as per revised syllabus prescribed by the ICAR. The book has been divided into 5 main sections viz.;

I. Horticulture-fruit science. II. Horticulture-vegetable science. III. Horticulture floriculture. IV. Important terms used in horticulture. V. Miscellaneous.

This book will help all and serve as a comprehensive guide to those who want to prepare competitive examinations like M.Sc and Ph.D. admission in Agricultural/Horticultural Universities, ICAR Institutes and other competitive examinations viz; ARS, SRF, JRF, civil Services held at National and State level services.

It is earnestly hoped that the students of horticulture fruit science vegetable science and floriculture and post harvest technology will find this book quite useful and prove beneficial to its readers.
