A STUDY ON MARKETING OF MUSHROOM IN HARDOI DISTRICT OF UTTAR PRADESH
Get PDFIndia’s biodiversity coupled with its vast resources including competitive workforce, highly intelligent scientific and rich business community make our country the best choice for growing vegetable crops like mushroom for world market. The field of mushroom crops is assuming importance because of growing demand for mushroom throughout the world. India is not a major producer of any particular variety of the mushroom, but it does cultivate mushrooms and has great potential as an important producer in the future. From a production standpoint, the white button mushroom has the highest growth rate and potential for production. However, the cultivation of oyster mushrooms has been more common since the end of the last century, when the infrastructure of oyster mushroom was much improved, therefore capital requirements went down as compared to requirements for white button mushroom cultivation

Understanding Importance of Soil Testing and Significance of SOC on Crop Productivity
Get PDFHealthy soils are important to grow healthy crops, raising healthy animals, and supporting a healthy human population through nutritionally balanced diets. As an indicator for soil health, SOC is important for its contributions to food production, mitigation and adaptation to climate change, and the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It supports multiple soil functions determining soil physical, chemical and biological quality parameters contributing to the productive capacity of soil. It improves soil structural stability by promoting aggregate formation which, together with porosity, ensures sufficient aeration and water infiltration to support plant growth. It is one of the factors that help in increasing water holding capacity, improves cation exchange capacity to hold huge quantities of positively charged nutrients such as calcium, magnesium and potassium until the plant needs them. 
An Evaluation of the Cloud/IX Operating System for ARM-Based Data Center Servers
Get PDFA transition from costly hardware to a large number of inexpensive servers has become a dominant trend in data center design architecture, creating new challenges for data center architects and necessitating the adoption of fresh approaches. In this paper, we explore alternative approaches to designing distributed systems in the spirit of the Plan9 operating system. We begin with an overview of application and research initiatives such as the porting of Plan9 to the IBM Blue Gene/L supercomputer, the usage of Plan9 in data centers and clouds, and the development of distributed embedded systems. Then, we present Cloud/IX, an OS for ARM-based server systems that, like Plan9, is based on the Plan9 architecture and runs on top of a variant of Plan 9 called 9front. We also detail the infrastructure and findings of an experimental evaluation of Cloud/IX on a real-world, multi-server farm in a data center
Weeding of Printed Books at Rev B.M Pugh Library of Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat
Get PDFWeeding is a process of removing obsolete collection of books from the stacks of library. The paper emphasizes on weeding of printed books at Rev BM Pugh library. The books which were not being issued and outmoded were weeded out to maintain the space in the stacks for new arrivals. The paper also discusses the procedure and policy adopted in weeding out of superseded books. The superseded editions, unissued and torn out books were identified through the copies available on the stacks and Koha LMS. Subsequently, the weeded-out books were freely distributed to public by organizing a Book Day. The freely distributed books were recorded in the Accession Register. The weeding procedure makes the collection active and creates space for new arrivals. 
Breeding Strategies for Drought Tolerance in Crop Plant, A View
Get PDF Drought is one of the most severe abiotic stresses in many regions of the world, and it is one of the most urgent issues in the current climate scenario. Drought-tolerant varieties are in high demand, which appears to be a challenging task for plant breeders. However, difficulties are complicated by crop production challenges on genetic and physiological bases. Drought is one of the most major environmental factors affecting crop productivity and quality around the world. Drought mostly impacts crops that thrive in wetland conditions, which account for 80% of all farmed land in the world. Climate change raises the likelihood of increased drought in many regions of the world in the next decades, causing crop damage as a result of abnormal metabolism and perhaps reducing crop growth, crop death, or crop development death. Drought resistance is defined as the mechanism(s) that cause the crop to lose the least amount of yield in a drought environment compared to the highest yield in a constant-free of optimal environment. Drought stress reduces the size of the leaves, stem extension, and root proliferation inside the soil; it also disrupts plant water relations and reduces water-use efficiency, reducing the plant’s yielding ability. Therefore, breeding for drought resistance is a good approach, combining both conventional and molecular approaches to develop a drought resistant variety. Root morphology research, proline estimates, and leaf rolling are all factors to take into account. Breeding improved drought-tolerant cultivars may be more effective if selection is based on a comprehensive approach to testing. Water stress also affects the crop’s physiological activity by inhibiting photosynthesis and assimilates consumption in the growing leaves. Plant hormones play a key role in transducing the stress signal, with abscisic acid (ABA) being the most important among them. To alleviate suitable crop productivity under environmental stresses, scientists developed various breeding strategies, such as conventional breeding, which works for both self-pollinated and cross-pollinated crops and is used to develop or improve cultivars using a basic conservative tool for manipulating plant genomes within the natural genetic boundaries of species. Pedigree, recurrent selection, back-crossing, and mutation breeding are among the conventional breeding strategies used to generate cultivars that can withstand drought stress. 
Automation in Agriculture Using Smart Irrigation Technology
Get PDFProblems in the agricultural sector are, as is well known, a big problem right now. The Union Minister of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, Narendra Singh Tomar, reported that 5,579 farmers in India will take their own lives in 2020. Scholars and activists have offered a wide variety of reasons for farmer suicides, but among the most prevalent are [2]heavy financial loads, agricultural failure, mental health problems, and personal problems. So, how can we find a solution that benefits farmers? "Agricultural Automation" is the correct response. Soil erosion, for example, might be an issue for farmers whether there is an abundance of water or not enough. The required crop quality is not yet available. Water shortage is another issue; so, water efficiency is key. No matter the weather—be it scorching heat that causes sunstroke, severe illnesses brought on by heavy rains, or dangerously cold temperatures that deteriorate farmers' health—they must water the crops manually. Agricultural automation has the potential to resolve most of these issues
Performance Optimization of Computer Vision Applications: A Case Study on STHORM Architecture
Get PDFIn the realm of embedded many-core architectures, computer vision applications are a major motivator. A harmony between computation and communication is vital for such systems to reach their full potential, however many computer vision techniques provide a highly data dependent actions that make the work harder. The developer needs access to tools for rapid and accurate application-level performance analysis in order to optimize application performance. Here, we go through the steps required to migrate and fine-tune a face recognition program for the STHORM many-core accelerator by way of the STHORM OpenCL software development kit. We isolate the key bottlenecks and separate the effects of the application, the openly programming paradigm, and the STHORM Openly software development kit (SDK). Finally, we demonstrate how these problems might be fixed in the near future to provide programmers even more leeway to enhance the efficiency of their applications
