Abstract

Mustard greens (Brassica juncea L.) are one type of favorable vegetable. However, mustard greens production and productivity still fluctuate. Also, society expects quality, healthy and safe vegetable products for consumption. So, it is necessary to increase the use of organic fertilizers to produce high productivity and good products. LOF of rabbit urine contains high nutrients, and PGPR contains microorganisms that act as bioactivators that decompose organic matter. This study aimed to determine the effect of giving LOF of rabbit urine and concentration of PGPR of bamboo roots on the growth and yield of mustard greens. The experiment was carried out factorially using Random Design Complete with three replications. The first factor was the LOF dose of rabbit urine, and the second was the PGPR concentration which consisted of 4 levels. The results showed that (1) the interaction of LOF of rabbit urine and concentrations of PGPR of bamboo root had no significantly different effect on all variables; (2) LOF of rabbit urine had no significantly different effect on all variables and (3) PGPR concentration of bamboo roots had a significant different effect on all variables except root volume and number of leaves, where treatment of 15 ml/L (B3) gave the best results on the yield of mustard greens.

Abstract

The advantages of new technology in fertilizer, pesticide, and water management for enhanced productivity and yield improvement in precision agriculture are investigated in this thesis. Research of both a quantitative and qualitative nature was conducted as part of the approach in order to offer a thorough knowledge of the influence that improved technology have had on the practices of precision agriculture. The quantitative findings of the research indicate that the use of modern technological practices leads to a large increase in both productiveness and profitability. The qualitative findings emphasize the positive effects on the environment that would follow from a reduction in the use of pesticides and fertilizers, as well as an increase in the sustainability of agricultural operations. Nevertheless, the research also reveals several challenges to adoption, such as the expense involved and a resistance to changing behaviors that have been done traditionally. Getting rid of these obstacles is going to be essential if we want to realize the full potential of precision agricultural methods. In general, this thesis provides important insights into the potential of advanced technologies in fertilizer, pesticide, and water management to promote sustainable and efficient agricultural practices. Additionally, it identifies key areas for future research in this field, which is extremely helpful.

Abstract

Climate change, as manifested through its multifaceted dimensions encompassing economic, social, and security effects, on agricultural activities within the Jordan Valley region. The research sample encompassed a group of 9000 agricultural practitioners residing in the Jordan Valley region. Employing the well-established Morgan model, a representative subset of 368 individuals was selected through a random sampling technique. The questionnaires were disseminated among the participants of the study, resulting in the retrieval of a total of 350 questionnaires. Upon careful examination, it was determined that 340 of these questionnaires were deemed valid and suitable for analysis. A meticulously crafted survey instrument was devised to systematically gather firsthand information. The research employed a quantitative (descriptive analytical) methodology to examine the data and evaluate hypotheses by employing suitable statistical techniques available in the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The findings of the study indicate a noteworthy and statistically significant relationship between climate change and agricultural operations. The analysis yielded a substantial coefficient of determination (R²=68.5%), suggesting that approximately 68.5% of the changes observed in agricultural operations can be attributed to the influence of climate change. The study proposes a strategic approach to enhance farmers' understanding of the indirect impact of climate change on various economic sectors, including manufacturing, energy production, transportation, and other services. This can be achieved through the implementation of educational initiatives, such as seminars and awareness sessions, which actively engage farmers in the learning process.

Abstract

Ginger has the potential for export and increased income for farmers in Nepal. Proper post-harvest handling practices has led to low market prices and significant post-harvest losses of ginger. The study was conducted in Palpa district to examine the post-harvest practices and technology adoption among ginger farmers. Data from 66 farmers in Bagnashkali, Purbakhola, Nisdi, and Rampur municipalities was collected through interviews, key informant interviews, and focus group discussions. Descriptive analysis was performed using MS Excel and SPSS. Results showed that 72.7% of farmers practiced storage, with Bhakari (60.41%) and Pit (39.59%) being the common storage types. Storage molds affected 72.2% of respondents, while 28.8% reported wrinkling during storage. Washing was practiced by only 7.6% of farmers. Manual grading was reported by all respondents, with no commercial grading observed. Black sutho production was carried out by 65.2% of farmers. Value addition activities such as sorting were practiced by 65% of respondents, while 25% engaged in transportation and packaging. Respondents' awareness of ginger post-harvest practices varied, with 75.76% having low awareness, 16.66% medium awareness, and 7.58% high awareness. Farmers' general precautions during harvesting, such as avoiding rhizome injury and minimal trimming and sorting, were not accompanied by specific precautionary practices, contributing to their challenges. The findings emphasize the importance of adopting modern post-harvest practices to increase production, improve product quality, and command higher market prices. Implementing these measures will enable ginger farmers in Palpa district to enhance their income and contribute to the growth of the ginger industry in Nepal.

Abstract

This study focused on the powder of the shell of the local garden snail in Iraq to identify the chemical compounds and determine the diversity and biological contents that might be applied for other applications and studies. Thus, snails shell was collected from local rivers in Al Diwaniya city, middle of Iraq; 500 grams of the shell powder of the garden snail was smashed and grinded and analysed during this study. The shell powder was extracted by ethanol, and 250mg of the yield was injected in GC-Mass spectrometry and analyzed. The detection of chemical compounds in the garden snail shell was identified by comparison with the mass spectra library of the GC-Mass data system. Results exhibited that six chemical compounds were largely predominant among other elements of the shell powder, including hexadecanoic acid, ethyl ester, (E)-9-Octadecenoic acid ethyl ester, pentadecanoic acid, heptadecanoic acid, ethyl ester, and 9-Octadecenamide, (Z)-. Also, the analysis profiled more than 23 chemical compounds that constituted the structure of the garden snail shell with a low percentage area. These substances were classified into fatty acids, saturated fatty acids, organic compounds, natural products, and methyl and ethyl esters. Consequently, these natural materials are essential active compounds that could be used for more medical and research applications studies. However, the yield of chemical compounds was a low amount. To sum up, GC-Mass spectrometry has displayed a high biological diversity of chemical compounds substances in the shell of garden snails, which can help researchers to investigate more for different natural chemical resources in the shell of a garden snail.
