Performance of Rose Production in Sindh Pakistan
No full textThe present study was intended to determine the economic analysis of rose production in district Hyderabad Sindh, Pakistan during 2012.Commercial farming of Rose has emerged as a remunerative enterprise in the diversified farming zone of Sindh Province but unfortunately common farmers of this area are not aware of its economic performance. The investigation on economic analysis of rose production in District Hyderabad was carried out during 2012, through survey method by randomly interviewing 60 rose growers. This sample was selected by random sampling techniques amongst the rose growers cultivating rose on commercial scale. It was studied that area devoted to rose averaged 3.53 acres per farm in district Hyderabad, during 2012. The span of flowering life of bushes averaged 5 years and consequently one and half years data were collected to account for fixed and variable costs as well. Rose production realized total gross income of Rs.450674.60 and on an average spent Rs.234679.56 per farm, the study indicates that each grower per acre realized gross income of Rs.127669.86, spent Rs.66481.46 and earned net profit of Rs.61188.40.The input-output ratio was 1:1.89 and the cost-benefit ratio was 1:0.89 investing a rupee.

ECONOMICS OF DAMASK ROSE PLANTATION IN PUNJAB STATE OF INDIA.
No full textABSTRACT
The present study depicts the economics of horticultural produce and essential oil
distillation of Damask rose (Rosa damascena L.) plantation in Punjab state of India. The
study is based on the data collected from farmers in Punjab. Cost components were
calculated on the basis of prevailing market prices of inputs and outputs. Cost of
cultivation for producing an average flower yield of 942 kg/acre/annum worked out to be
Rs. 36,647 /acre /yr. Cost of essential oil production and net returns were calculated as
Rs. 38,617/ 264 gm oil and Rs. 20,783 /acre /yr, respectively. Damask rose oil
production is a remunerative venture with Rs. 59,842 as net present value (NPV), 12.70
percent as internal rate of return (IRR) and benefit cost ratio (BCR) as 1.54. NPV of
Damask rose oil production/ 4000 sq.m. was 202.34 % higher than that of wheat- paddy/
4000 sq.m. cropping pattern

Economics and Marketing of Rose Flowers: A case Study of Islamabad and Rawalpindi Districts
No full textRoses have reasonable demand in Pakistan. The study was conducted in rose growing pockets of Islamabad and Rawalpindi districts. The objective of the study was to determine costs and returns of rose producers and marketing intermediaries. Random sampling technique was used to collect the data from thirty farmers and ten retailers. In the study area, per acre yield of roses was 1010 kg per annum. Average establishment cost of rose gardens was Rs. 0.17 million per acre. Total cost of production was calculated to be Rs. 0.26 million per acre per annum. Gross and net returns of rose farmers were calculated to be Rs. 0.32 million and Rs. 0.06 million per acre, respectively. Benefit cost ratio of roses production was 1.24, thus returns from roses’ production are high enough, and it is an attractive farming activity in the study area. Marketing channel for roses was identified as producers, retailers, and consumers. Marketing costs of producers and retailers were Rs. 54.1 and Rs. 17.3 per kg, respectively. Shares of producers and retailers in consumer rupee were 77.4% and 22.6%, respectively. Farmers in the study area obtain low yield of roses than their counterparts in irrigated areas of the country, mainly to due to traditional non-recommended production practices. Thus, farmers should be trained to use recommended production technology for production of roses

Type species: <i>Botys patulalis</i> Walker, 1866, by original designation.</p> <p> <b>Diagnosis.</b> This genus is externally similar to <i>Botyodes</i> in appearance, but it can be distinguished by the paler yellow wings, the elongated uncus that is longer than the total length of the tegumen, vinculum and saccus, the broad distal uncus that is about as wide as the tegumen, the valva with a fibula, and the posterior half of corpus bursae densely covered with small granules. In comparison, in <i>Botyodes</i>, the wing is yellow, the uncus is somewhat shorter than the total length of the tegumen, vinculum and saccus, the distal uncus is less broad and about a quarter of width of the tegumen, the fibula is absent, and the corpus bursae is smooth.</p> <p> <b>Generic characteristics.

Antioxidant potential, mineral contents and fatty acid composition of rose, blackberry and redberry fruits
No full textStudeis relating to finding out such plant materials and fruits containing natural antioxidants and high quality nutrients have been increasing in recent years. Rose, blackberry and redberry fruits were evaluated for total phenol, flavonoids, antioxidant activity, phenolic compounds, minerals and fatty acids composition. The total phenol contents of fruits varied between 112 mg GAE/ioog (ripened rose seed (RS)) and 702 mg GAE/loo g (redberry); flavonoid ranged from 25 (ripened RS) to 184 (redberry). The Redberry (81.64%) and blackberry (76.28%) fruits showed highest free radical scavenging abilities. Among minerals, P contents of samples ranged from 615.80 mg/Kg (blackberry) to 2208.08 mg/kg (redberry), K contents were found between 193.27 mg/loog (raw RS) and 18342.12 mg/kg (raw RF). Gallic acid contents significantly varied (p < 0.05) and ranged from 0.36 mg/kg in redberry to 4.97 mg/kg in blackberry. Oleic acid contents of oil samples were 12.29% (ripened RS) and 59.5o% (raw rose fruit (RF)). Lin oleic acid contents of samples ranged between 19.66% (raw RE) and 48.77% (raw RS). Rose, blackberry and raspberry fruits can serve as potential nutrient and natural antioxidant sources that can be utilized for nutraceutical and functional foods development.Deanship of Scientific Research at King Saud UniversityDeanship of Scientific Research at King Saud University [RG-1435-049]The authors would like to extend their sincere appreciation to the Deanship of Scientific Research at King Saud University for its funding the Research group NO (RG-1435-049)
