Arsenic contamination of ground water has been found in Rajarampur village the Nawabgonj district north-western Bangladesh. A recent survey indicated that 11% tubewell contains arsenic range 0.01 mg/l to 0.05 mg/l, and 29% above WHO maximum permissible limit mg/l. None samples from tubewells less than 60 ft depth showed levels Of 1273 people exposed this contaminated supply 7.5% clinical manifestations arsenicosis. The majority these (59.4%) were female. There no cases below 7 years age....

Ninety households were interviewed using a semi-structured questionnaire. Plant resources are used to treat 26 different ailments ranging from simple cuts diabetes. In total, 46 as used, which third trees. Homesteads the primary source few cultivated. Aboveground plant parts most particularly leaves. The...

Purpose This study aims to show the relationship between competition, financial stability and ownership structure of banks in Middle East North African (MENA) countries. Design/methodology/approach uses generalized method moments (GMM) estimators generate research results. an unbalanced panel dynamic data set. It covers period 2011 2017 MENA banks. Findings implies that there is a significant positive market power explains competitive focus on credit risk, which turns them risky. From bank’s...

The fluxes of carbon dioxide (CO2) to and from vegetation can be significant on a regional scale. It is therefore important understand the biogenic CO2 in order quantify local budgets. Greenbelt Ontario protected region cropland natural surrounding Greater Toronto Hamilton Area (GTHA) Ontario, Canada. Recently, changes were proposed Greenbelt, including removal 2,995 ha (7,400 acres) land replaced with housing. In this study, we estimate entire as well areas that for by using modified...

Scientists unequivocally agree that winter air temperature (TA) in northern high latitudes will increase sharply with anthropogenic climate change, and such increases are already pervasive. However, contrasting hypotheses results exist regarding the magnitude even direction of changes soil (TS). Here we use field satellite data to examine 'cold a warm world' hypothesis for first time boreal forest using proxy year approach. In mean annual similar predicted ~2080, average TS was reduced...

An exploratory study was conducted on the hunting and gathering of wildlife by Mro tribe in Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHTs) Bangladesh, highlighting target animals, preference, frequency various indigenous techniques hunting. The farmers are primarily dependent shifting cultivation is a secondary occupation, particularly important for poor people. Though rears some domestic animals sacrificing special occasions, game meat appears to be highly welcomed dietary supplement. A total 34 species...

A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of liming in Himalayan Piedmont acid soil Bangladesh on nutrient dynamics under different levels lime mungbean (Vigna radiate) field followed by T. Aman (transplanted rice) cultivation, during period December 2010 October 2011.Five were applied, viz, T 1 : control, 2 1.0, 3 1.5, 4 2.0, 5 2.5, ton ha -1 .The pH soils after increased steadily with rate liming.The treatments showed up varying results where more plant nutrients became available...

Humans and the food industry both depend on safety. As a result, handlers must have strong understanding of safety practice good hygiene. The purpose this study was to assess restaurant workers' knowledge hygiene practices in Manikganj, Bangladesh. A total 150 workers were interviewed their level majority people believe that knowing how properly wash your hands reduces risk contamination. Furthermore, 83.7% who use gloves process do so prevent contamination (98 %). While 56.66 % respondents...

A comparative study of plant nutrient changes between the years 1991 to 2012 in north-eastern piedmont soils Anjamkhor Union, Thakurgoan district, Bangladesh was done determine soil fertility degradation status.Plant status compared based on analytical data from survey program Soil Resource Development Institute (SRDI), Ministry Agriculture, Bangladesh.This results revealed that higher during period 1990's.Afterwards, has been changed with time causing decline.Soil acidity, organic matter...

This paper uses generalized method of moments (GMM), Least Squares (LS) and Generalized Linear Model (GLM) to examine the impact competition on profitability banks Stochastic Frontier approach (SFA) is used estimate cost efficiency. We have an unbalanced panel dataset from a sample emerging economic MENA countries over period between 2011 2017. find out that significant negative banks. The empirical findings this study suggest should more improve process managing monitoring loan segment...

Bangladesh is a land scarce country where per capita cultivated only 12.5 decimals. It claimed that every year about one percent of farm in the being converted to non-agricultural uses. The study based mainly on field survey covering 2 villages (Narikel Baria and Baze Silinda) from 10 sub-urban around Rajshahi City Corporation under Paba Upazila district. area was selected purposively respondents this research work were randomly. major focus mention general use pattern area, estimates...

Farmers use wastewater for irrigation in many developing countries, example Bangladesh, India, China, Sri Lanka and Vietnam because they have limited access to clean water. This study explored cadmium (Cd) bioaccumulation two spring wheat cultivars (cv. Mustang Lancer), which were grown different concentrations of Cd (0,1, 2, 4, 8 mg kg −1 ) agricultural soils. The half maximum inhibitory concentration (IC 50 values 4.21 ± 0.29 4.02 0.95, respectively, whereas the health risk index (HRI) was...

Fluxes of carbon dioxide (CO) to and from vegetation can be significant on a regional scale. It is therefore important understand biogenic CO fluxes in order quantify local budgets. However, these are often difficult estimate urban emission studies. This work uses the Solar Induced Fluorescence (SIF) for Modelling Urban (SMUrF) model Vegetation Photosynthesis Respiration Model (UrbanVPRM) around Greater Toronto Hamilton Area, most populous region Canada. We have made several modifications...

The Farmer Information and Advice Centers (FIACs) are currently working to provide one-stop agricultural advisory services, including climate-friendly agriculture, farming communities in rural Bangladesh, but their role has yet be explored. Therefore, the aim of this study is assess FIACs providing need-based extension services create social innovation through transforming smallholders’ agriculture into a farm business Bangladesh.
