The Food-Producing Crops in the Tropics

Abstract

The paper deals with some aspects of tropical agriculture, together with notes on the origin, diffusion, and domestication of important food-producing crops in the tropics of Old and New World. The utilization of tropical fungi and sea-weeds as sources of human food is briefly discussed. It is concluded that in light of current world food-shortages, improvement of the established tropical food-crops is most necessary at the present time.
