Cereals are any type of cultivated grass where the edible parts are the grains, which are composed of the endosperm, germ, and bran. Cereal grains provide more global food energy than any other crop and are therefore staple crops. In their natural, whole form cereals provide vitamins, minerals, proteins, and carbohydrates. However, when processed by removing the bran and germ, they are mostly carbohydrates. Legumes are plants in the bean family that are grown for human consumption, livestock feed, and as green manure. Common legumes include beans, soybeans, peas, lentils, and peanuts.

Cultivation production and uses of wheat
Wheat is one of the most important cereal crops grown worldwide and is a staple food in many countries. It originated in the Fertile Crescent region and was one of the first crops domesticated by early farming communities. Modern bread wheat is a hexaploid species that evolved from hybridization events between wild grasses. It contains a high percentage of carbohydrates and proteins and provides over one-fifth of the calories consumed by humans globally. Wheat cultivation requires fertile, well-draining soil and favorable temperature and rainfall conditions. The document discusses wheat's botanical characteristics, nutritional value, varieties commonly grown, and cultivation practices.
Plant uses
This document discusses plant uses for food. It begins by stating that plants are one of the most fundamental sources of food for the world. Approximately 75,000 plant species are edible, but only around 3,000 are major food sources. Cereals, legumes, nuts, vegetables, and fruits are some of the main food plants. The document then goes on to describe various cereal crops like rice, wheat, maize, and minor cereals. It also discusses important legume crops, nuts with high fat/protein content, and common vegetables.

Cereals are annual grasses grown primarily for their large seed reserves known as grains. The six major cereals grown worldwide are wheat, rice, corn, barley, oats, and rye. Cereals provide concentrated carbohydrates for humans and livestock. The type of cereal grown depends on climatic conditions, with wheat grown in temperate climates, maize in warmer regions, and rice in hot, irrigated climates. Rice is the most important cereal, serving as the staple food for over half the world's population, especially in Asia.

Sugar crops and fodder crops are also briefly outlined. Green manure
quinoa crop introduction by siddique ahmad ( agriculture university of peshwar
Quinoa is an emerging crop in Pakistan that was introduced in 2008. It is nutritious and high in protein compared to other grains like rice and wheat. It can grow in saline soils and marginal lands, requiring low water. Production is increasing in Pakistan as more farmers cultivate it and its seed price decreases. Quinoa has many uses as a food grain and its saponins have industrial uses. It shows potential to improve food security and farmers' incomes in Pakistan.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
