About this book

"असे होते डॉ. चीमा" हे पुस्तक भारतीय उद्यानविद्येचे पितामह डॉ. गेंदासिंग चीमा यांच्या दूरदृष्टीपूर्ण आणि ध्येयवेड्या जीवनकार्याचा सविस्तर मागोवा घेते. देशातील उद्यान पिकांमध्ये घडलेल्या सुप्त क्रांतीमागील संशोधन, सरकारी धोरणे आणि शेतकरी-केंद्रित दृष्टिकोन यांचा पाया डॉ. चीमा यांनी कसा घातला, हे पुस्तक स्पष्टपणे मांडते. पेरू, द्राक्ष, डाळिंब, सीताफळ, भाजीपाला व फूल पिकांतील दर्जेदार वाणनिर्मिती आणि त्यांचा आजच्या शेतीवर झालेला दीर्घकालीन प्रभाव या पुस्तकात ठळकपणे अधोरेखित केला आहे.
संशोधक, प्रशासक, शिक्षक आणि विस्तारक म्हणून डॉ. चीमा यांनी बजावलेल्या बहुआयामी भूमिकांचे वास्तवदर्शी चित्रण या पुस्तकात आढळते. उद्यानविद्या शाखेतील शास्त्रज्ञ, विद्यार्थी व शेतीप्रेमींसाठी हे पुस्तक केवळ चरित्र नसून प्रेरणा, इतिहास आणि मार्गदर्शन देणारा मौल्यवान संदर्भग्रंथ आहे.

“Ase Hote Dr. Cheema” (This Was Dr. Cheema) is a detailed account of the visionary and dedicated life work of Genda Singh Cheema, regarded as the father of Indian horticulture. The book clearly explains how Dr. Cheema laid the foundation for the silent revolution in India’s horticultural crops through research, government policies, and a farmer-centric approach. It highlights his significant contributions to the development of high-quality varieties of crops such as guava, grapes, pomegranate, custard apple, vegetables, and flowers, along with their long-term impact on modern agriculture.

The book also presents a realistic portrayal of Dr. Cheema’s multifaceted roles as a researcher, administrator, teacher, and extension worker. For scientists, students, and agriculture enthusiasts in the field of horticulture, this book is not just a biography but a valuable reference that offers inspiration, historical insight, and practical guidance.
