| | Mentha farming picks up in western UP- The Times of India |
 | | One of the reasons for the popularity of mentha is that less time is required for its cultivation than other cash crops like sugarcane, said a farmer of Bara Banki who has switched over to mentha farming recently. | | | However, the cultivation of mentha requires more water than many agricultural crops. | | | A large number of farmers, who earlier were en gaged in cultivating other crops, have taken up mentha farming for the past few years. |

| | Of the members of the mint family under cultivation the most important are the several varieties of the Peppermint (Mentha piperita), extensively cultivated for years as the source of the well-known volatile oil of Peppermint, used as a flavouring and therapeutic agent. | | | The fungus (Puccinia Mentha) which causes it develops inside the plant, and therefore cannot be reached by any purgicide, and as it is perennial, it cannot be got rid of by cutting off the latter. | | | All that can be done is to prevent the spread of the disease by digging up all plants that show any sign of rust. |
