Japanese Demand for Vegetables and Vegetable Seed

Relevance. Vegetable growing is a traditional sector of agriculture in Azerbaijan. The republic has all the conditions for its development, both natural and socio-economic. Materials and methods. The aim of the research was to analyze the current state of vegetable growing in the republic, to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the industry, to determine the terms of support for producers from the state and branch science. Results. The gross harvest of vegetables has been steadily growing in the last decades, and by 2019 amounted to 1715 thousand tons. The yield of vegetables also increased during this period from 14, 7 to 21.9 t / ha. In door production area is approximately 4800 ha. The production of greenhouse vegetables is focused on the Russian market. The bottleneck in the industry is vegetable seed production, a market with a capacity of almost 20 million euros is occupied by foreign companies. At the same time, the agricultural producers get state support in the form of subsidies and soft loans and a full tax exemption. Industry science is also developing: the Research Institute of Vegetable Production has been reconstructed and fully equipped, special training organized for vegetable growers in the Azerbaijan State Agrarian University. Further development of the industry continues through the intensification and biologization of production, expanding the range and improving product quality.

Improved Methods

Analyses, by recent and improved methods, of the mixed fatty acids from various seed fats are now available in a number of different cases, and show, more definitely than hitherto, that the seed fats of members of the same botanical group frequency possess strongly marked specific resemblances. It has been recognised, of course, for a considerable time that seed fats from plants belonging to the same or nearly allied botanical orders often contain similar, and to a certain extent specific, mixtures of fatty acids. Thus, the fats from fruits of the Palmæ are marked by the presence of relatively large quantities of lauric acid, whilst myristic acid is prominent in those of the Myristiceæ , and erucic acid in seeds of the Cruciferæ ,
