This ‘Exotic Technical Compendium’ is the condensation of 30 years of collecting technical information, which was interesting at least to me. Much of it applies to tropical areas, and is not available from the average handbook and not easily traced when needed.

As I am an agronomist, most of the information is oriented, but not limited, towards that discipline. The subjects are arranged in alphabetical order.

The compendium should not be considered a handbook. It is largely a collection of ‘rules of thumb’.
Whenever available the source of information has been indicated. Information from different sources on the same subject need not always be in line with each other. Therefore it is necessary to check and cross-check.
