Effects of seed and nitrogen with phosphorus fertilizer rates on production of lowland rice (Oryza sativa L.) in Fogera plain, North Western Ethiopia.
Abstract: Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the main cereal crop in the Fogera. However, crop yields are low due to lack of various agronomic management practices. Among these, lack of site-specific seed rate and fertilizer levels are the major limiting factors. Therefore, a field experiment was conducted at the Fogera National Rice Research and Training Center in 2019 to study the effects of seed and nitrogen with phosphorus fertilizer rates on …

Effective Utilisation of Lowland Eco-System for Water and Crop Productivity in Eastern India
Abstract: AbstractThere is no option other than to increase the food production to meet the increasing demand for food with ever-increasing population growth rate. There is also very little or no scope of horizontal expansion due to land limitation, the question of vertical expansion is the only way to fit with the situation. Genetically improved crop variety, hybrids, mechanized agriculture, higher rate of fertilizers and chemicals application may give one or …

Role of Clay Liners in Municipal Solid Waste Landfills: A Review
Abstract: Rapid population growth has significantly increased the generation of municipal solid waste (MSW) in urban and suburban regions. Disposal of MSW in landfills without proper liner systems may lead to leachate migration and subsequent contamination of groundwater and surrounding soils. The use of liner systems at the base of landfills is therefore essential to minimize leachate percolation and protect the environment. Geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs) and compacted clay liners (CCLs) …

Effective Strategies for Sustainable Soil and Water Management: Enhancing Agricultural Productivity and Environmental Conservation
Abstract: Soil and water are essential natural resources, and their degradation due to erosion, overgrazing and other factors is ongoing. Water erosion is influenced by climate, topography, vegetation and soil, while wind erosion is affected by wind characteristics, surface features, topography and soil properties. Unsustainable land and water management practices lead to reduced soil fertility, soil loss, lower crop yields, water depletion, deforestation, and diminished biomass. Of the 1386 million cubic …

ALTERNATIVE FLOURS IN BAKING: AN COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW OF HEALTH BENEFITS AND APPLICATION IN BAKING
Abstract: The rise in consumer health awareness has driven a significant interest in exploring alternative flours beyond traditional wheat. This review examines the functional and nutritional benefits of various alternative flours, including almond, oat, millet, sorghum, barley, rice, maize, rye, and chickpea, in baking applications. Almond flour offers high protein and healthy fats, beneficial for gluten-free baking but varies in sensory attributes. Oat flour, rich in beta-glucan, enhances heart health and …
