Many thanks Suresh ji for this upload.
Me too will look for the ID validation. Need to get familiar with viridis and spinosus; ... confusing.
Regards.
Dinesh

Sir,

None of F. B. I., F. I., Bengal Plants, FoC and FoP describes that Amaranthus viridis L. is a cultivated crop. Though Flora Indica informs that some natives eat this, but it also informs it is not cultivated. I think the people these days do not eat this plant, at least not in our region.

Moreover, the plant, the spikes are slender in A. viridis L.

Thank you,

Regards,

surajit

Before reaching to any conclusion for the identification of cultivated amaranth, I think, we should go through literatures like - https://krishi.icar.gov.in/jspui/bitstream/123456789/45071/1/Improved%20Varieties%20and%20cultivation%20Practices%20of%20Grain%20amaranth.pdf


Thank you.

Yes, problems are compounded due to different cultivars in cultivation as per your publication.
