Abstract By expanding the surface area and/or by other chemical reactions, soil additives such as biochar help retain nutrients in soil. n this work, effects of on adsorption and desorption heavy metals elements necessary for plant growth were investigated. To illustrate from solution biochar, Freundlich isotherm was employed. The rise mineral nutrients, pH, EC linked to an increase CEC with warmth. Because its high CEC, improves health increases nutrient availability, which can boost...
To understand the impact of climate change on water resources, this research investigates long-term rainfall trends and anomalies across Northeastern India (NEI), covering Assam Meghalaya (A&M); Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura (NMMT); Sub-Himalayan West Bengal Sikkim (SHWB&S) using different statistical tests including innovative trend analysis (ITA). The study scrutinizes 146 years statistics, analyses, variability, probability distribution changes to comprehend its...
Micronutrient refers to the relative quantity of a nutrient that is required for plant growth. It takes part in metabolic activities, enzymatic process/catalysts etc. Thus these all directly and indirectly help growth development. There are 8 essential elements defined as micronutrients like boron (B), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), molybdenum (Mo), chlorine (Cl) silicon (Si). They constitute total less than 1% dry weight most plants. Organic sources farm yard manure,...
Northeast States of India is blessed with a wide range physiographic and ecoclimatic conditions the geographical ‘gateway’ for much India's endemic flora as well fauna. It home 17 crop species that represent 47% diversity available in country. The region receives an annual average rainfall 2000 mm accounting about 10% (42.5 mhm) country's total precipitation 420 mhm. Forest cover 14.2 million ha which 54.16% area higher than national (19.39%). By large, characterized by fragility,...
Seaweed extracts have shown profoundly positive effects on crop growth, quality and reproduction in diverse agricultural horticultural crops. can be used to promote the rooting growth of cuttings perennial fruit species like kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa). In this study, were treated with 1, 5, 10 50% solutions G Sap (Gracilaria edulis), K (Kappaphycus alvarezii), AN (Ascophyllum nodosum), EM (Ecklonia maxima), HA (Humic acid) control (water) for 6 h as base dipping. Subsequently,...
