EFFECTS OF VARYING LEVELS OF ORGANIC MANURE AND FERTILIZER APPLICATION ON THE GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF Mansonia altissima (A. Chev.) SEEDLINGS
Get PDFMansonia altissima is a good source of timber usually known for its natural durability and medicinal potentials. This study is undertaken to investigate the effects of varying levels of organic manure and fertilizer application on the growth performance of Mansonia altissima seedlings. The organic manure used for this experiment is poultry manure, while the fertilizer application used is urea. The two treatments used are poultry manure and urea, at the levels of 0g (control), 0.1g, 0.3g, 0.5g, and 1g. Each of the levels for both poultry manure and urea was replicated 10 times. Result shows that poultry manure and urea applied improved the growth characteristics but varied significantly among the treatments. For poultry manure, leaf number, plant height and collar diameter, the highest mean value obtained are 11.20g, 22.76g and 10.04g when applied at 1g while 0.1g has the lowest value in all the parameters checked. The same parameters were also checked for urea and 1g performed best with the mean value of 10.80g, 22.08g and 9.32g. The study indicated that Mansonia altissima seedling responded well to the treatments applied and also suggest that the application of 1g of poultry manure and urea is the best for the optimum growth of Mansonia altissima
SMART IRRIGATION FOR SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE IN A DEVELOPING ECONOMY
Get PDFSMART IRRIGATION FOR SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE IN A DEVELOPING ECONOMY ‘‘In 2050 the world will need to provide food for nine billion people. Meeting this mass demand will require an increase in food production levels by some 70%, which is possible only through agricultural productivity. Volatility in the climate amplifies the vulnerability of the resource-dependent agricultural sector. Agriculture accounts for around a quarter of the global greenhouse gas emissions and 68% of total freshwater withdrawals and consumption in the world(www.undp.org). With this perennial dichotomy, it is imperative that agriculture productivity increases but with efficient use of resources. The recent black swan event of COVID along with the perils of climate change has created mammoth problems for the agriculture sector distorting cultivation, harvesting, supply chains, and markets. At the same time, agriculture commodities have remained the only essential need for human survival. It is therefore the time to understand the necessity for revival and growth of this sector. Across the globe, there is an urgent need for transforming agricultural practices as climate change and food demand increase strain on this sector. In India, the Agriculture sector is undoubtedly the largest livelihood provider, especially in rural regions. It also contributes a significant portion to the country’s per capita income. Irrigation is the most important component of farming. It directly impacts the volume of harvest. It is also affected by climate change by either increasing or decreasing water supply. India, a developing economy has the majority of farmers who own farms less than two hectors. Is the Indian agriculture adequately developed to use modern irrigation techniques? This paper intends to find out the contemporary irrigation techniques used by the farmers in India, a developing and agrarian economy. This research paper uses exploratory research design, secondary and primary data sources for analyzing the implementation and effect of using innovative irrigation technology. The research describes case studies of enterprises that are developing innovative, digitally-based smart irrigation technology models to leverage agricultural productivity and make it sustainable. The paper begins with introduction and literature review, followed by research objectives and methodology, enumerates types of irrigation methods followed by primary data analysis, case studies, discussions, and conclusion
