The amount of biological information generated in the last two decades is enormous because of Next generation sequencing (NGS) discovery that has enabled researches to sequence and model almost every organism and also due to rapid advancements in techniques and tools in experimental research. The research which was first carried out at fields, labs and clinics is now started with computational analysis (in-silico) of information, modeling, experiment planning and hypothesis development. Various applications of bioinformatics are algorithms, databases, and other data analysis tools and softwares that enable storage, analysis, retrieval, annotation and visual interpretation of biological information which in turn increases the knowledge of various biological systems that help in making new discoveries regarding production, human health, animal health and plant health keeping in mind the challenges of climate change, water and area shortage. This will help not only in increased plant and animal production but also in management and treatment of various human, animal and plant diseases in addition to the underlying mechanisms and strategies of the rapidly evolving pathogenic microorganism and antibiotic resistance.

Indian economy comprises of two sectors rural and urban. In economic transformation from agriculture to an industrial society handloom industry plays an important role in generating local employment as it is scattered in the rural and urban areas. It works as a vehicle for poverty alleviation, rural income generation and regional economic development. Various governmental policies and institutional framework can play a very important role in the field of development. In spite of these, it has been observed that a number of handloom weaving units are continued to be in the grip of problems. The problems range from limited products range to absence of market value chain along with poor front end marketing. Therefore the purpose of this research is to familiarize with the current status of handloom and handloom Industry of Assam.

Investigation on the Reproductive Biology of Bagrus bayad in Jibiya Dam from Katsina State, Nigeria was carried out from July – December 2019 using standard procedures. One hundred and sixteen (116) samples of B. bayad were harvested and collected during the study period in order to determine sex ratio, fecundity and Gonadosomatic Index (GSI) of the fish species. Results indicated that the male:female sex ratio was 1.3:1 which was not significantly different from the hypothetical 1:1 (p>0.05). It was also found that the GSI of B. bayad was highest in July (0.23) and lowest in October (0.12). The relationship between fecundity and ovary weight was positively significant (p<0.05). Similarly, there was a significant positive relationship between fecundity and body weight as well as between ovary weight and age (p<0.05). However, no significant relationship was found between ovary weight and body weight, body weight and age and between fecundity and age (p>0.05). It is recommended that comparative study on the stages of maturity of male and female B. bayad in Jibiya Dam be investigated.

A. Tripathi, Thanjavur Tamil Nadu India Quality Testing
Honey is widely known for its nutraceutical properties and purity. It is a sweet and viscous food in nature which is prepared by Honey bees, and have been recommended for consumption purpose. Honey possesses antioxidant activities, anti-inflammatory properties, antiseptic, antiallergen properties, and thus used as a portion of therapeutic food for skin disease, intestinal problems and anemia. These qualities of honey get attention for use of honey to human consumption. To date, available honey in the market is a pasteurized product that is thermally treated. The thermal treatment (pasteurization) process leads to degradation of honey quality by changing the Color and also influences the physical properties. An increase in temperature during the thermal process leads to the inversion of sugars and also increases hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) which affects the color of honey. The use of non-thermal technologies like ultrasound treatment overcomes the quality-related aspects of honey. In the present study, three varieties of Honey (Jungle, Tulsi, Eucalyptus honey) were selected to see the effect of the Ultrasonication process on the rheological properties. Experimentation results have not demonstrated any significant change in color among varieties, but Eucalyptus honey had a minimum color difference ∆E of 15.87 after ultrasound treatment. The viscosity of the Honey sample (Tulsi) was found to be decreased (97.45%) for temperature variation from 20 0 C to 100 0 C.

The aim of this study is know the feasibility of livestock rearing practice among tribals of Wayanad, Kozhikode and Kannur districts of Kerala. The tribals living in Wayanad, Khozikode and Kannur districts of Kerala were taken in the study as these districts has highest number of tribal population. The results from the study found that half of the respondents from all the three districts were found literate and regarding livestock possession majority of respondents from Wayanad had more number of cattle whereas from Kozhikode and Kannur had more number of goats. Further regarding the feasibility of livestock rearing practice in Wayanad Veterinary hospital, Milk society, Tribal Extension Office, School and Club were all present within 2.5 km radius whereas in Kozhikode Government Homeo-Hospital, Tribal and Cooperative society were situated within the radius of 1 km and in Kannur within the geographical area of 5 Km they have School and Tribal development office, but they don’t have any facilities like Veterinary hospital and Milk society. It is concluded from the study that almost all the tribal families were interested in agriculture and livestock rearing related activities and also they have veterinary facilities within 3-10 km radius. The predominance of forests and grasslands is congenial for livestock rearing, but most of these tribal families still depended on leased livestock; thus if livestock is provided to the family it would help them in better income generation, also commercial poultry rearing as a subsidiary occupation has scope for increasing the farm income of these tribals.

The livestock sector considered to be a major enterprise in agriculture sector. It plays a significant role in the welfare of India’s rural population as it provides income and employment generation to a major section of the farming community. It is increasingly recognized that dairying could play a more constructive role in promoting rural welfare and reducing poverty. Keeping in view the importance of livestock among farming community a study was carried out in five villages of Faizabad district of Uttar Pradesh. For the study sixty buffalo milk producing households were selected randomly. The net maintenance cost of per milch buffalo per day was estimated by deducting the income from dung from the total maintenance cost. In winter, summer and rainy seasons, it was Rs. 101.85, 98.95 & 91.85 on marginal, Rs. 96.07, 92.94 & 86.60 on small and Rs. 88.14, 85.44 & 80.30, respectively on medium herd size groups. The net profit of milk production per milch buffalo per day was Rs. 70.28, 69.34 & 86.41 on marginal, Rs. 85.98, 83.84 & 104.24 on small, Rs. 105.77, 103.42 & 121.73 on medium herd size groups in summer, winter and rainy seasons respectively. The cost benefit ratio per milch buffalo per day was 1.63, 1.64 & 1.86 in winter, summer and rainy seasons, respectively on marginal herd size groups. The same trend was found in small and medium herd size groups. In this study the women participation in dairy farming was also work out. The results highlighted that the women participation in milk production was higher in feeding, compost making as compared to other practices. As constraints in dairying farming were studied, these were reported as low price of milk, inadequate knowledge about balanced feeding, lack of vaccination at appropriate time etc.
