cabbage agricultural management

1. CABBAGE
is a popular vegetable that is a
relative to mustard greens and also to
the turnipfamily. Its scientific name
is Brassica oleracea, and within this
group there are two main varieties: early
and late. Early cabbage reaches maturity
in just over 40 days and has a small, tight
head, while the late variant takes longer
to grow — almost 90 days — and has a
much larger head. In general, only the
center section — the head — is eaten.
Healt Benefits
Cabbage has the highest amount
of some of the most
powerful antioxidants found in cruciferous
vegetables – phytonutrients such as
thiocyanates, lutein, zeaxanthin,
isothiocyanates, and sulforaphane, which
stimulate detoxifying enzymes. Research
has shown these compounds to protect
against several types of cancer, including
breast, colon, and prostate cancers. They
also help lower the LDL (low-density
lipoprotein) or "bad cholesterol" levels in
blood, which can build up in arteries and
cause heart disease.
