6 extractive question-and-answer pairs built from Bio-formulations for sustainable fruit production through bio-intensive management, published by epubs.icar.org.in. Source-evidenced topics include bio-formulations, sustainable fruit production, bio-intensive management, bio-intensive organic farming, microbes, soil health, nutrient availability, crop pests. Every answer is a verbatim span of text the source prints, and each row carries the passage it sits in, its offset in that passage, the source quote, the page and the location in the document, so any row can be checked against the original. Question types in the export: 2 factual, 2 relationship, 1 list, 1 summary. 4 of the 6 pairs (66.7%) ask explanatory questions; the remaining 2 are factual or table-based questions. 100.00% of rows pass the corpus quality gate.
This dataset contains six question-and-answer pairs derived from a publication on bio-formulations for sustainable fruit production. It explores topics such as bio-intensive organic farming, the role of microbes in agriculture, and India's pesticide consumption rankings. The answers are extracted directly from the source text, ensuring traceability. ICAR-CISH's contributions to plant health and pest management are also highlighted through specific product mentions.
