Land Management- Principles and Key Components
With the growth of human population, more and more land was cleared for cultivation, housing and cattle rearing. Later, as towns and cities started developing, vast areas of land were started to be consumed in making roads, rail tracks, bridges, buildings, markets, trade centres, Educational and Research Centres, hospitals, railway junctions, etc.
Prepare Biochar to End Up Paddy Stump Burning
The technique of carbon fixation has been developed by Dr. Ram Swaroop Meena of Banaras Hindu University, U.P. – India who has potentized his technique entitled “Low cost Biochar with Integrated Nutrient Management”.
Demand and supply of Energy in India
Energy is essential for working and survival of all the organisms on this planet. In fact, it is the energy which enables organisms to perform their biological functions.
Bee hive and basic idea of honey collection
Natural beehives are naturally occurring structures occupied by honeybee colonies, such as hollowed-out trees, while domesticated honeybees live in man-made beehives, known as Apiary.
Biodiversity and Importance of Biodiversity
Biodiversity sources and also other sources supply raw materials to many important industries.
They have aesthetic value and an appeal for ecotourism, which supports the growth of the national economy. They are also potential sources of pharmaceuticals, other chemicals, agricultural materials, etc.
Pharmaceutical products of biodiversity origin offer important medicines to our healthcare systems and prepare a background for many social services. Besides these, biodiversity offers various ecosystem services as each of the numerous species of animals and plants depends on other animals or plants for survival, breeding, and development.
Coordination in plants
Auxins move to darker side of the part of a plant and cause cells of that side to grow larger. These may induce cell division as well. In both of these cases the part of the plant bends.
Conservation of Wildlife
Conservation of species in their natural habitats- in areas where they occur under normal conditions is called in-situ conservation.
This type of conservation strategy protects the entire area. Such an area is protected and maintained to conserve all the known or unknown species inhabiting it.
In this type of conservation, species are not isolated or provided with health care, food, or mating facilities. Only factors detrimental to species’ existence and development are eliminated in this conservation strategy. Human interference, such as hunting, cutting down trees, collecting firewood, etc., is completely banned in such areas.
Interactions between members of a species
Living beings interact among themselves in the same species, with the members of the other species, and with the components of the abiotic environment in an ecosystem. Interaction between the members of the same species is called as Intraspecific whereas the interaction among individuals of different species is called as Interspecific.
Origin and Characteristics of a Family
The early man started his life as an individual. Gradually he came in contact with his fellows and he started developing a social life. At any period of human life it is hard to understand that a man ever remained in isolation. Thus this hypothesis does not cover the whole thing.
Bio invasion and Genetic Erosion
The process by which a new species is introduced into a habitat is called as Bio invasion. A number of…
Monoculture and its impact on the Environment
Growing a single crop species over a large area or farm is called intensive farming or monoculture. Earlier practices of mixed cropping caused problems in crop management, like harvesting, etc. Uniformity in plant height adds beauty to our fields and makes the application of agrochemicals easy. It also saves time and energy in segregating grains in threshing.
