Fibres
Résumé fourni par la source
With its detailed descriptions of the wild and cultivated plant species of tropical Africa that are used for their fibres, this book and CD-ROM provides an invaluable resource for education, extension, industry and research. Fibres may be traded internationally, but many are only used locally – for tying material and clothes, for thatching, packing and filling, and for the production of baskets, mats, wickerwork, brooms and toothbrushes. Rattans are also included in this commodity group. The comprehensive and exhaustively researched text describes 515 primary use fibres in 248 review articles. Treatments of the 75 most important fibres are particularly detailed. The primary use fibres are listed alphabetically and described according to a standard format. This includes plant names, origin, properties, uses and trade. Husbandry and disease control methods are also discussed, while information on genetic resources is provided. Many of the articles are illustrated with a geographic distribution map and a line drawing. The accompanying CD-ROM allows for easy searching through the texts and contains numerous additional photographs.With its detailed descriptions of the wild and cultivated plant species of tropical Africa that are used for their fibres, this book and CD-ROM provides an invaluable resource for education, extension, industry and research.
