The mathematical description of N mineralization in soils like parabolic model, exponential model, hyperbolic model, zero order models etc, is a possible 3 approach to characterize and quantify the organic matters pool and mineralization constant rate. The single exponential model most widely used for soil N mineralization, although other types have also been tested. Several kinetic models are often used to estimate the kinetic of N mineralization, thus a model is selected based on the highest coefficient of determination (r2) and the lowest standard error (Wijanarko & Purwanto, 2016). The N mineralization capacity through long term incubation procedures. From their studies they proposed an asymptotic model of time course of N mineralization, making it possible to calculate the N mineralization potential of the soils (Stanford & Smith, 1972). Kinetics parameters in mineralization study can be potentially used to access the mineralization-immobilization process in soils under varying environmental and management conditions. Nitrogen-use efficiency can be enhanced through the understanding of N-mineralization potential of different organic source.

The present investigation has been done on the basis of qualitative and quantitative data collected from primary sources and explored the land alienation and land ownership status of tribal agricultural labourers. It also investigates how social discrimination aggravates the extent of land alienation and influence the land ownership and access to common property resources among the tribal people. While considering the inter-community disparity in land ownership, Kurichiya community owned more land than Paniya community, whereas, Kattunaikan owned no land and remained landless. Majority of the tribal people, especially women experienced high degree of land alienation. The major methods of land alienation identified were marriage of tribal women with non-tribal men, mortgaging the land by the tribal people to the non-tribal people in return for credit. The major consequences of land alienation as perceived by the tribal agricultural labourers were widening gap between the rich and the poor tribal people, increased poverty, exploitation, confrontation between tribal and non-tribal people, migration, law and order problem in tribal areas and marginalization and exclusion. In the case of access to common property resources, Kurichiya community had better access to community well/ tap, forest produces, common land resources and water resources than Paniya and Kattunaikan communities.

Tillage is the physical manipulation of soil to improve physical soil conditions. In Pakistan, various tillage technologies such as primary and secondary tillage affect plant growth, incorporate organic matter residues into the soil, eradicate weeds, and prepare the bed for seed germination preventing soil erosion and preparing the ground for irrigation. Furthermore, tillage practices change soil water holding capacity, temperature, aeration, and the mixing of crop residues within the soil matrix. Today's real agricultural problems are resource depletion with declining production, decreased human resources, and rising prices and societal shifts due to different anthropogenic activities (tillage). These changes in the physical environment and the food supply of the organisms affect different groups of organisms in different ways. In addition, they are also affecting the environment health. Therefore, its management, including conservation tillage and other includes cover crop, organic residues, and direct sowing of rice seedling is necessary to mitigate the problems. The present review discusses the tillage systems effects on soil, plants, environment and their possible solutions.

Ultrasound has been explored in recent times by researchers and food processing industries due to its capacity to increase extraction efficacy by enhancing mass transfer and rupturing cells due to acoustic cavitation. In protein extraction ultrasound treatment is generally used as a pretreatment in combination with the traditional method of extraction as it breaks the cell wall and improves the extractability. Ultrasound treatment not only improves the extraction rate but can also modify the functional properties of the protein product. The rate and yield of protein extraction depend on the operating conditions like power density of ultrasound, pulse, duration of ultrasonication, solid to solvent ratio, temperature, extraction solvent, pH, and so on. The current paper aims to present the impact of incorporating ultrasound technology with traditional technologies on the yield and functional properties of protein extraction from plant sources.

Agriculture mechanization plays very important role for horticulture crops. Role of machineries is increasing day by day. In order to compensate for labour scarcity, reduce labour drudgery and time consumption in manual or traditional sowing of potato tubers, a prototype was designed on the basis of various mechanical properties of potato tubers and the prototype was evaluated in the field. The potato tubers taken were divided into three categories i.e., round, oblong and long-oblong. Different mechanical properties of potato tubers were used for designing different lead units of the potato tubers planter which is used for direct planting of potatoes in prepared seed bed.

A field experiment was conducted at College Agronomy Farm, N. M. College of Agriculture, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari during summer, 2019 and 2020 comprising four intercropping treatments i.e. pearlmillet sole, pearlmillet+greengram, pearlmillet+cowpea, pearlmillet+clusterbean and three fertility levels viz., 75 % RDF, 100 % RDF and 125 % RDF. Among the different intercropping system examined, sole pearl millet (I1) accumulated significantly less content of N and P in pearl millet grain and straw as compared to intercropping with pulses treatments. Pearl millet + green gram (I2) recorded significantly higher N and P uptake by pearl millet straw than other intercropping systems. The sole pearl millet (I1) was at par with pearl millet intercropped with green gram (I2) had significantly higher K content and uptake in pearl millet grain and straw. In case of fertility levels, nitrogen and phosphorus content and uptake in pearl millet grain and straw were recorded significantly higher by application of 100 % RDF. Significantly higher N, P and K uptake by pearl millet grain and straw in pooled results were produced by treatment combination of pearl millet + green gram (I2) intercropping along with 75 % RDF (F1).

In limnological studies Phytoplanktons are the primary considerations.Algae which are freely percolated with mean of water current are considered as phytoplanktons.All algae are not considered as phytoplanktons like Chara, Nitella these are the macroscopic Alga which grows profoundly in any fresh water bodies carrying suaitable ecophysiological environment to them. Algae are the photosynthetic producers which accounts approx. one third of total photosynthetic activity on this planet. Our study deals with a freshwater lake ecosystem. In limnology of a lake we found dominance of algal genera belongs to Chlorophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Cyanophyceae Class. However, Euglenophyceae class may present but its population depend upon trophic status of Lake. Present paper deals with periodical analysis of few unicellular phytoplanktons and one filamentous genera Prasiola which is a new citation to Bikaner Phycology. Gajner lake was selected for our study which located around 33 kms away from Bikaner toward west side. Study was carried out for one year January 2017 to December 2017.We collected samples from 3 sites of Gajner lake twice in a month. Now Gajner Lake is the part of wildlife sanctuary. A historical tourist site Gajner palace also located along with lake. So, it is less polluted. Due to trophic level of lake Chlorophycean alga profoundly present in the lake. Although a portion of Lake is under village panchayat which is openly accessed by the local people of Gajner village. The open access site of lake has totally different phytoplanktonic density.
