Cultural plants. Sergeeva M.N.

The book tells about the plants that a person cultivates, that is, cares about them: watering, fertilizes, and weeps. Some of them are in culture since ancient times, others are two or three centuries, which, by historical standards, is a short time. Cultural plants are divided by their use on the farm. There are food plants, there are fodder (livestock feed), there are fibrous (spinning). Plants are specially grown medicinal, spicy, decorative.

In our book, the main attention is paid to those crops that grow in a temperate climate. And how many of them are in the tropics! Only a small part of the southern fruits found a place on the pages of the publication. From the book you will find out where one or another cultural plant comes from and where it is grown today, as used.
