Horticulture has emerged as a crucial element in contemporary agriculture, as new opportunities are continually being discovered in this field. The subject has expanded beyond its original focus on vegetables, fruits, flowers, and postharvest technology, encompassing new areas like disease, breeding, pathology, physiology, greenhouse technologies, and others that were previously unexplored. The Hi-Tech Horticulture book series has been developed with these considerations in mind, featuring contributions from distinguished professors and scientists.
