Description
This book covers the Occidental crops derived from B. oleracea (cole or cabbage group) and Oriental types from B. rapa (Chinese cabbage and its relatives).
The Brassica crops provide the greatest diversity of products derived from a single genus. As vegetables they deliver leaves, flowers, stems, and roots that are used either fresh or in processed forms. Both groups covered in this book are of immense importance for human nutrition, containing vital vitamins and cancer-preventing substances.
