Fenvalerate Toxicity on Fish: A Review
Abstract: As a new class of agricultural insecticides, synthetic pyrethroids are widely used to control insect pests. Synthetic pyrethroids have shown to enter the aquatic environment from agricultural runoff or drift from aerial and ground-based spraying applications posing threat to fishes, which are less tolerant to pesticides through direct exposure. These insecticides interfere with the sodium channel of the nervous system resulting in prolonged sodium tail current. Widespread application of these …

COVID-19 Impacts on Agriculture and Food Security
Abstract: COVID-19 and lockdown originally had the effect that the shift in demand curve to the left resulted in "leveling off" the prices of agricultural produce. The reason for this was not the lack of demand due to rising prices. The reason for this was that due to their consumption being limited to homes and lack of workers, most companies were forced to reduce production in their factories. The coronavirus pandemic …

Machine Learning Based Smart Aquaponics Farming System
Abstract: For many years, researchers have been studying nutrient management in aquaponic systems. Most have concentrated on adequate nutrition control in an aquaponic setup, but there has been relatively little study on commercial scale applications. For plant growth, it is necessary to measure the level of nutrients present in the soil mixture. In our model, the input data was sourced on some interval of time basis from three commercial aquaponic farms. …
