Phytopractices in tropical regions: A preliminary survey of traditional crop improvement techniques
Y Aumeeruddy et al
The present report is concerned with one particular aspect of this search for new production techniques and systems, that of phytopractices, after "phytopratiques" in French. This is a new term describing all those treatments which may improve, select, propagate or preserve plants on an individual basis. Included are a range of plant manipulation techniques and practices which are applied with care to each plant or a few associated plants, in order to improve the quality and quantity of the products that can be obtained from those plants.
