Removal of Colour and Heavy Metals from Waste Water Using Nano-composite based on Rice Husk (Agro-Waste)
Abstract: Agriculture is prominent sector in India which affects largely our economy. A large quantity of agricultural waste is burnt by the farmers in India, which creates environmental problem as well as loss of economy. Nano-technology is very important emerging technology which is being used in almost every field. Nano composites by using agri-residues like bagasse and industrial waste like flyash have been used in this study for reduction of environmental …

Preceding winter season crops and residue management practices on root: shoot characters,yield and economics of succeeding pearlmillet under no-ill tilled semi-arid ecosystem
Abstract: Conservation agriculture practices,such as no-tillage with residue recycling is a very popular feasible approach to increase the productivity and resource-use efficiency under rainfed ecosystem. A field experiment wasaccomplished at IARI, Pusa, NewDelhi toidentify suitable pearl millet based cropping systems mainly with wheat, chickpea and mustardalongwith the organic mulches,viz.no residues, crop residues and Leucaenatwigs applied to both summer and winter season crops grown in sequence during 2010–2011 and 2011-2012. Both rainy- …

Isolation and Stability Studies of Dried Protein Fractions from Three Leguminous Seeds: Glycine max, Vignaunguiculata and Parkiabiglobasa
Abstract: Soya bean (Glycine max), Cowpea (Vignaunguiculata) and Locust bean (Parkiabiglobosa), three of Nigeria’s widely eating foods were exploited for their protein content. Dried protein isolates using aqueous NaOH were obtained, dried and subjected to DPPH stabilty antioxidant analysis at different pH. The % crude protein, by proximate analysis was high, which indicates that all the seeds can support the isolation of dried protein powder needed for the experiment. Soya seed …

Green Synthesis of Nano Composite based on Agro-Industrial waste and removal of pollutants from Waste Water
Abstract: India’s economy is largely dependent on Agriculture. A lot of agricultural waste is generated and most of the waste is burnt by the farmers in India, due to which economy is lost as well as environmental problem is created.In this study an effort has been made on green synthesis of nano-composites using agricultural waste like bagasee,rice husk and industrial waste like flyash material. Nano-technology is is being used in almost …

Participatory Varietal Selection on Drought Tolerant Rice at Sundarbazar, Lamjung
Abstract: A Participatory Varietal Selection (PVS) trial was conducted in rainfed lowland at Sundarbazar, Lamjung with the objective to assess the performance of drought tolerant rice (DTR) genotypes on phenological, biometric, yield and yield attributing characters during rainy season 2017. The experiment was carried out in Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications and ten treatments consisting IR-14L635 (T1), IR-15L1043 (T2), IR-14L363 (T3), IR-15L1077 (T4), IR-14L613 (T5), IR-15L1091 (T6), IR-15L1018 (T7), …

MONITORING AND MANAGEMENT OF INSECT PESTS OF MAIZE IN KATHMANDU VALLEY
Abstract: Monitoring study was carried out through survey in Kathmandu valley (Ramkot -5 Kathmandu district, Katunje -5, Bhaktapur district and Bungmati -25 Lalitpur district). Both qualitative and quantitative research approach was use with an objective to find the insect pests of maize in Kathmandu valley. Survey information was collected from 100 households randomly; 33 households from Kathmandu and Lalitpur districts and 34 households from Bhaktapur district during mid - June 2017 …
