INTRODUCTION
People now a days are having a hard time eating healthy foods like
vegetables and fruits . So we decided to make a Carrot cookies with
chocolate chips and nuts so that everyone can eat it. The motivation
behind why we select the carrot plant is on the grounds that I have
perused many intriguing certainties that grabbed my eye and ideally it
will do likewise for you. Carrots are a fascinating vegetable since
they were first developed for restorative reasons, not for nourishment.
One fun actuality is that the individual that is the voice of Bugs
Rabbit didn't care for carrots. Generally speaking this is a crucial
vegetable that individuals need in their day by day diet. Carrots are
critical in light of the fact that they have a ton of supplements that can
improve your wellbeing. Despite the fact that there is some
contention with infant carrots as a result of the synthetic concoctions
like chlorine used to treat them.
Carrots (Daucus carota L.) are biannuals of the Apiaceae
(Umbelliferea) family.
Carrots (Daucus carota L.) are in excess of a flexible orange
vegetable. Unique carrots were purple and yellow, at first depicted in
the tenth century in Iran and northern Arabia. These carrots spread
east and west from this inside to be known over the Center East,
North Africa, Europe, and China by the mid‐15th century.
The carrot Daucus carota is an annual or biennial herb with a thick
fleshy taproot, which is the primary organ of agricultural importance.
Carrot roots are usually orange, but there are also white, black,
yellow, red and purple varieties.The roots range in length from 5 cm
to more than 50 cm and are generally conical. However, there is
tremendous diversity in rootshapes and sizes. The leaves are alternate
and compound and organized as a rosette. Carrot roots are an
important food product. Depending on the variety, carrots are sold
fresh or processed: pre-packed, boiled and canned, frozen, diced and
sliced etc.
Carrot is an economically important horticultural crop that has gained
popularity in recent decades due to increased awareness of its
nutritional value. Orange carrots are highly revered as “good for the
eyes” due to their high content of hydrocarbon carotenoids, a class of
phytochemicals that are often precursors to vitamin A. α‐ and
β‐Carotene predominate in orange carrots. Dietary vitamin A is
consumed either as preformed vitamin A from animal‐based or
fortified foods, or as provitamin A carotenoids supplied by
plant‐based foods. In 2004, vegetables contributed nearly 27% of the
total vitamin A in the available U.S. food supply , up from 18% in
1970. In 2007, carrots supplied an estimated 37% of the available
fresh vegetable β‐carotene, the major provitamin A carotenoid in the
U.S. diet. Carrot root is approximately 88% water, 1% protein, 7%
carbohydrate, 0.2% fat, and 3% fiber. Diets rich in fruits and
vegetables have been associated with reduced risk of degenerative
diseases including some cancers and cardiovascular disease.
Carotenoids are abundant in plant‐based foods and have been
implicated as the beneficial substances in these diets in the prevention
of disease.
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
Etten, M. L. van, Brunet, J., (2017). Acta Horticulturae(No.1153),
273-277. International Society for Horticultural Science (ISHS),
Leuven, Belgium. Wild carrot was most likely introduced to
North America from Europe as a weed. It has since spread to
every state in the USA and has been declared invasive. Wild
carrot can easily hybridize with cultivated carrots leading to
the potential transfer of genes from the crop to wild carrot.
Lamb, R. J., Boivin, G., (2017). Canadian Entomologist 149(5), 592-
599. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, UK. Long-term, twice
weekly, trap catches of the native carrot weevil, Listronotus
oregonensis (LeConte) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), and the
introduced carrot rust fly, Psila rosae (Fabricius) (Diptera: Psilidae),
were used to test the hypothesis that native populations fluctuate less
from year-to-year than those of introduced species, because the native
species has had more time to adapt to temporal variability in its
habitat than an introduced species.
Hay, F. S., Vaghefi, N., Ivy, A., Pethybridge, S. J., (2017). Plant
Disease 101(1), 248. American Phytopathological Society (APS
Press), St. Paul, USA. In March 2015, black irregularly shaped
lesions up to 30 mm in diameter were observed on carrot roots that
were placed in cold storage for 6 months in Wadhams, Essex County,
New York, USA. Disease incidence was ∼5% and up to 30% of the
tissue was affected on some roots.

Zealand Plant Protection 68, 373-379. New Zealand Plant Protection
Society, Hastings, New Zealand. In New Zealand, unmanaged bees
species can be important crop pollinators, but their abundance and
distribution is poorly known within hybrid carrot seed crops.
Standardised counts of bees visiting flowering carrot umbels (1350
umbels observed/field) across 19 commercial hybrid fields were
conducted between 1000 h and 1500 h.

American Phytopathological Society (APS Press), St. Paul, USA. In
December 2012, symptoms of typical bacterial leaf blight were
observed on carrot plants (Daucus carota subsp. sativus) cultivated in
commercial fields in Kujwa, Jeju, Korea. The disease was detected in
40% of 50 fields surveyed with an incidence of 10% on average.

(2014). Plant Disease 98(3), 421. American Phytopathological
Society (APS Press), St. Paul, USA. Since 2007, symptoms of umbel
browning have been regularly observed in carrot production areas
located in the central region. Initially, triangular necrotic lesions
appeared on carrot umbels that later spread to the entire umbels and
often progressed to the stems.

Previous studies regarding the association between carrot intake and
prostate cancer risk have reported inconsistent results. A systematic
literature search of papers published in August 2013 was conducted
using PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science, the Cochrane
register, and the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure
databases, and the references of the retrieved articles were screened.

Society (APS Press), St. Paul, USA. In summer 2012, bacterial blight
symptoms were observed on leaves of carrot plants in 7 out of 70
plots of carrot breeding lines at the Purdue University Meig
Horticulture Research Farm, Lafayette, Indiana, USA. Symptoms
included small to large, variably shaped, water-soaked to dry,
necrotic lesions, with or without chlorosis, at <5% incidence.

vegetables: Beet, carrot, parsnip and turnip". The Physiology of
Vegetable Crops. Wallingford, UK. Intended for horticultural
researchers and farm advisors working with vegetable crops who
want to understand the factors governing the principal growth
processes. It is also meant as a reference work for students in
horticulture and related fields.
Perry( 1983) found that the percentage of roots with lesions was
higher in carrots harvested in November than in October.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The researcher aims to answer the following questions about Carrot
as a cookies with chocolate chips and nuts
1. Is the carrots can be as a nutritious vegetable cookies?
2. Is the carrots cookies with chocolate chips and nuts is applicable to
eat in all ages?
