Observed Seasonal Variation Of Wave Power From Moored Buoy Measurements - A Case Study On The East Coast of India
Abstract: The wave climate in Indian waters is strongly influenced by the seasonal variation. Accurate wave height assessment is crucial for wave power computation which is proportional to square of the significant wave height. Any error in wave height is magnified in the wave power estimation. Wave models tend to predict medium range wave activity to a desired degree. Insufficient wind, bathymetry and grid resolutions, model physics parameterizations also account for …

MEASUREMENT OF FARM EFFICIENCY IN AGRICULTURAL SECTOR OF INDIA:A STUDY
Abstract: While the non-parametric production function is based on linear programming, the parametric production function is estimated using stochastic frontier analysis (SFA). The efficiency is assessed using a non-parametric technique known as Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) (Charnes, Cooper, & Rhodes, 1978).. The primary benefit of the DEA technique is that it circumvents certain drawbacks of the parametric approach by requiring simply a little portion of a priori assumptions about the functional …

Causes and Measures to Control Root Rot Fungus in Mulberry Ecosystem
Abstract: Root rot is a severe plant disease caused by various soil-borne fungi, including Phytophthora sp., Pythium sp., Rhizoctonia sp., Fusarium sp., and Armillaria sp. These pathogens attack plant roots, leading to decay, stunted growth, wilting, yellowing leaves, and plant death. Root rot typically develops in waterlogged soils with poor drainage, as these conditions create an environment favorable for fungal growth. Factors such as warm temperatures, compacted soil, improper watering practices, …
