भागवद्गीता में नारी भावना एवं वर्तमान में उसकी प्रासंगिकता
No full textभारतीय संस्कृति में नारी के सम्मान को बहुत महत्व दिया गया है। संस्कृत में एक श्लोक है- 'यत्र पूज्यंते नार्यस्तु तत्र रमन्ते देवता:। अर्थात्, जहां नारी की पूजा होती है वहां देवता निवास करते हैं। महाभारत में कहा गया है कि जिस कुल में नारियों की उपेक्षा भाव से देखा जाता है उस कुल का सर्वनाश हो जाता है। शतपथ ब्राह्मण में कहा गया है कि नारी नर की आत्मा का आधा भाग है। नारी के बिना नर का जीवन अधूरा है इस अधूरेपन को दूर करने और संसार को आगे चलाने के लिए नारी का होना जरूरी है। जिस कुल में नारियों कि पूजा, अर्थात् सत्कार होता हैं, उस कुल में दिव्यगुण, दिव्य भोग और उत्तन संतान होते हैं और जिस कुल में स्त्रियों कि पूजा नहीं होती, वहां तो उनकी सब क्रिया निष्फल हैं

Herein, the objectives of the present preliminary investigation were to assess the impact of plastic film (black and silver) and organic (wheat straw) mulching on the different rhizosphere microbial population, plant growth, and mineral uptake in tomato crop. The measurement of rhizosphere microbial population and plant growth attributes was performed at the vegetative and reproductive growth stages of the tomato crop, while, mineral uptake analysis was carried out at the vegetative stage using the inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The result of experiments revealed that soil mulching favored microbial abundance in the crop rhizosphere, improved plant growth parameters and mineral uptake in tomato plants. The highest bacterial (6.75 ± 0.16 log10) colony-forming units per gram of soil (CFUg−1), and phosphorous solubilizing organisms (5.47 ± 0.02 log10 CFUg−1) population was found in silver mulch while wheat straw (as organic mulch) resulted in the higher fungal (4.64 ± 0.04 log10 CFUg−1), actinomycetes (5.68 ± 0.06 log10 CFUg−1) and rhizobial count (3.77 ± 0.07 log10 CFUg−1) during the vegetative growth. Consistently, the rhizosphere microbial population at the fruiting stage was also found higher in either colored plastic film or organic mulch treatment. Soil mulching also led to the substantial improvement in the plants shoot length, shoot girth and the number of secondary branches both at the vegetative and fruiting stage. ICP-OES analysis of mulched plant revealed the better mineral uptake in different parts of plants. The highest concentration for P (4535.67 ± 92.87 mgkg−1), K (11933.33 ± 338.35 mgkg−1), Mg (10263.33 ± 63.86 mg kg−1) and micronutrients uptake values for Fe (1167.67 ± 16.14 mg kg−1), Mn (133.83 ± 2.15 mg kg−1), and Cu (40.11 ± 0.87 mg kg−1) were observed in the silver film mulch treatment. Likewise, tomatoes from soil mulched conditions also recorded the highest uptake of the analyzed mineral nutrients. The present study revealed that soil mulching could be an effective technique for favorably altering beneficial soil microflora and enhancing mineral uptake in crop plants and thus for improving soil quality and productivity in a sustainable mannerNot Availabl
Multi criteria decision making analysis to identify micronutrient deficiencies in Kinnow (<i>Citrus reticulata</i> Blanco)
No full textThe soils of South-Western Punjab are alkaline and exhibited widespread nutrient deficiencies. Foliar applications of micronutrients under such circumstances hold great importance. However, micronutrient sprays on Kinnow grown in such soils are limited only to Zn and Mn. Therefore, the response of Kinnow to foliar applications of micronutrient mixture (containing Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn, B, and Mo) was expected. In this viewpoint, studies were carried out during 2015–2019 to see the effect of foliar sprays (0.3 and 0.6%) of non-chelated and EDTA-chelated micronutrient mixtures in Kinnow mandarin. The results were compared with standard practice i.e., 0.3% sprays each of zinc sulfate and manganese sulfate on spring and summer flushes. The data was analyzed in Randomized Block Design, repeated in octuplet. The overall performance of treatments was evaluated using weighted aggregated sum product assessment model (WASPAS). The WASPAS score varied between 0.638–0.649 and 0.194–0.245 in treatments received non-chelated and chelated micronutrient mixtures, respectively, pointing out the superiority of the former. In overall, treatment followed standard practice registered highest WASPAS score and ranked at number 1 among all. Highly significant (p < 0.01) correlation between WASPAS score and leaf Zn, Mn, and Cu concentrations clearly demonstrated the importance of foliar sprays of these micronutrients in the citrus production under the prevailing conditions. The study also suggests that multi criteria decision making analysis holds a key importance in agriculture domain for insightful decision making.</p
