Hilly areas

Soil erosion is a naturally occurring process in mountainous areas that affects all landforms. Located in Central of Vietnam, in the tropical monsoon climate Da Nang City is characterized by more than 70 percentage of area with hilly and mountainous topography. This study is objective apply the Universal Soil Loss Equation (ULSE) model developed by Wischmeier and Smith (1978) integrating with remote sensing data and Geographical Information System (GIS) tool to evaluate soil erosion risk in Da Nang City, Vietnam.

In Karnataka, ginger is also cultivated in hilly areas where, continuous and heavy down pour makes the soils vulnerable to leaching and fixation of nutrients. In order to meet the nutrient requirement and to increase the fertilizer use efficiency foliar application is recommended.

A dynamic growth model (CO2FIX) has been used for estimating the carbon sequestration potential of Burans (Rhododendron arboreum), an indigenous medicinal plant of higher hills of western Himalayan region. The present study has been carried out in the campus of V.C.S.G. College of Horticulture, U.U.H.F., Bharsar, Pauri Garhwal, Uttarakhand. The temperature and rainfall of this hilly area ranged from - 4.0 to 28.0o c. It is capable of thriving on snow and heavy rainfall condition. CO2FIX was parameterized for a simulation of 50 years respectively.

Globally maize is the third most important crop in the world. The main maize crop is generally grown as rainfed and on marginal lands particularly in hilly terrains of the Kashmir valley. It is situated at longitude and latitude of 73.0-76.2E and 32.50-36.0N respectively. By 2050 demand for maize will double in the developing world, and maize is predicted to become the crop with the greatest production globally, and in the developing world by 2025 (Rosegrant et al., 2008).

The nano-lime and nano-dolomite had the surface areas of 1000 and 900 m2 g -1 , respectively, which are nearly 10 times higher than their respective conventional counter parts. Nano-liming is more effective due to the extensive surface areas of these materials that had increased by ten times which correspondingly increased the exchange properties. As a result of eluviations of acidity producing cations, the Ca and Mg added through the liming materials got adsorbed that closely coincided with a set of favourable changes in soil properties.

A dynamic growth model (CO2FIX) has been used for estimating the Carbon Sequestration Potential of Kafal (Myrica esculenta), an indigenous multipurpose tree used for timber, fuel wood, fiber and in addition to its medicinal value. The present study has been carried out in the campus of V.C.S.G. College of Horticulture, U.U.H.F., Bharsar, Pauri Garhwal, Uttarakhand. The altitude of the location is ranging from longitude 78.59’:20.28’E, latitude 79.00’:30.05’N and 2000 m MSL altitude. The temperature and rainfall of this hilly area ranged from -4.0 to 28.

In hilly areas, local population with their traditional knowledge utilize several medicinal herbs and plants parts for treating injuries and aliments of their livestock, agricultural crop and human population. Among these Pyrus pashia, commonly known as Indian pear or Mehal is hardy wild mid hill fruiting tree. Crude leave extract traditionally used for treating infection of toe finger particularly during rainy season. Fruit juice and ripe fruits of P. pashia used for treating eye injury and mouth sours.

In the study it was observed that from 9 structures in IWMP-2 project at different villages of Madhya Pradesh, during Rabi, about 146 farmers were benefited. The farmers reported that in total about 16 percent area of cultivation increased especially in winter and summer and they received very good increase in overall production about 38 percent. Study revealed that due to structures, farmers were able to cultivate more gaining crops as irrigation water availability was increased.

The undulating and sloppy geography, small size fields with uneven topography, lack of skilled labour, poor repair and maintenance facilities, low purchasing capacity of farming community and non-availability of improved farm implements and machines are some of the main reasons for low level of mechanization in the hilly region of the state. By keeping in mind the problems faced by the farmers in hilly areas and to promote farm mechanization a new type of rotary plough cum weeder is designed.

Club root of crucifers, a devastating disease of oilseed Brassicas and Cole vegetables is very difficult to control through conventional methods in different areas due to ineffective. Cultivation of resistant Brassica germplasms against this disease is very cheapest method to manage this disease. Therefore this screening trial was conducted with different Brassica germplasms under growth chamber to identify the source of resistance against this disease. Generally root hair infection test and pathogenicity test (club formation) were done for this purpose.

Khurasani (Guizotia abyssinica spp.) is considered as an important traditional minor oil seed crop in India, which is mainly cultivated in hilly and tribal areas. Though the crop has high oil content and wide range of utility, very less attention is being paid towards the judicial utilization of the crop by the growers. So, considering this fact the present research work was carried out in Jawhar and Mokhada tahsils of Palghar district of Konkan region of Maharashtra state to know the utilization pattern of Khurasani crop by the growers.

The most important device that helps or supports the silkworm larvae for comfortable spinning of cocoons is called mountage or cocoonage and the process of transfering the mature larvae on mountage is called mounting. Even if the silkworm crop is healthy, wrong mounting methods, spinning conditions and bad type of mounting material can result in inferior or poor quality cocoons and silk yarn leading to lower income to farmers.

The water is an essential component of human life and survival of plants and animals. Estimation of evaporation is very important in arid and semi-arid region where the shortage of water occurs. It plays an important role for planning and management of water resources projects, necessary for scheduling of irrigation and in planning farm irrigation systems. It is a very important component of hydrologic cycle and water resources problems.

Mono-cropping practice is predominant under rain-fed agriculture in north east India, where rice is the most important crop followed by maize. It is apparent that areas under rice and maize remain fallow during the rabi season. These fallow lands can be effectively utilized for cultivation of rabi crops with improved technology. To achieve that sowing is a critical field operation that makes the prospects of a crop.

Madhya Pradesh is pre-dominated by the Tribal population. The differences in the tribal community, spread over in various parts of the state, is clearly seen not only on the basis of their heredity, lifestyle and cultural traditions, but also from their social, economic structure, religious beliefs and their language and speech. Due to the different linguistic, cultural and geographical environment, and its peculiar complications, the diverse tribal world of Madhya Pradesh has been largely cut-off from the mainstream of development. The population of Tribals in Madhya Pradesh is 122.
