Plastic pollution was identified as one of the main problems in the world, with plastic taking hundreds or thousands of years to decompose. Consequently, there has been a growing inclination towards utilizing biodegradable materials such as bioplastics for packaging purposes. Bioplastics can be derived from organic materials such as food waste, although it's important to note that not all bioplastics are biodegradable.

Some nations have strictly regulated the cultivation of GMO crops, while critics have tried to raise the alarm on potential risks, environmental impact, social justice and ethical concerns regarding certain aspects of biotechnology. Given the recent advances and the benefits to those countries engaged in implementing biotechnology, and the scope of its use in so many countries, it is important that U.S. citizens understand what it is, and how it is employed.

The Pesticides are mainly used in agriculture According to the FAO, 4,600,000 tonnes of pesticides are sprayed into the environment each year, or 146 kg of pesticides per second. Every year, 3 million people are poisoned by pesticides worldwide. Developing countries represent a quarter of the use of pesticides in the world, but record 99% of deaths caused by these same pesticides. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) recommends good management practices pesticides that can minimize potential health risks for farmers and other users in public hygiene.

The pea (Pisum sativum L.) is an annual grain legume of the Papillonaceae family. It is thought to be originated in the Ethiopia, part of Europe and Asia. It is one of the four most important cultivated legumes along¬side soybean, groundnut and beans. The development of varieties for yield and disease resistance is one of the important activities to support farmers and improve the productivity of the crop. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess genetic diversity by cluster and principal component (PCA) analyses of field pea genotypes.

The article studies the innovative aspects and the relevant controversy, and unsolved problem raised by the paremy ‟Kifuko M-mutamba Tawusosolwa ooso” [1]. It also examines how or at what extent the paremy impacts the modern ecology globalisation on its users. The paremy perspective claims that today many social problems are inherently related to Ecology. Ecologyis not an isolated variable, but a dimension informing theory and methodology in several researches. Ecology is viewed here as related to social class, ethnicity, culture and religion.

Increasing human population puts intense pressure on the river and uses it as their household dustbin. These are Anthropogenic pollution (are directly associated with the decline of river water quality and the fishes) and become an alarming issue of increasing scientific concern. Bihar is the “land of rivers” and a huge population resides at the bank of the rivers. The present survey was undertaken in Gandak river (Bihar) at Hajipur from Aug 2022 to Sept 2023 to check water quality, fish biodiversity and their IUCN status in summer, winter and rainy season.

In today’s world every moment, changes are occurring in almost all fields of life. Currently, Higher Education is performing multi-tasks for the development of a nation. It prepares and trains the workforce for the 21st century. Higher education has broadened the fields of knowledge due to which different changes are occurring in every field of life as well as in the field of higher education and invites academic leaders to integrate these changes and innovations for effective working in the global age.

In Indian society, farm women have multi-dimensional role ranging from agricultural and allied activities to domestic activities. India is the second-largest producer of vegetables in the world next only to China and accounts for about 15 per cent of the world production of vegetables. At present, less than 2 per cent of fruits and vegetables are processed, even as our county ranks second in the world in terms of production. The preparation of value-added products is mostly confined to household/village or with in the easy access of farm women.

Zingiber Officinale, commonly referred to as "Ginger" The plant's therapeutic qualities, including its anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, and antibacterial qualities, are caused by a variety of compounds. Ginger has several uses in food preparation, medicinal, flavoring, and spices. Its pH range is 5.6 to 5.9. Old and rotten ginger is made to look appealing by washing it in sulfuric acid, which is highly dangerous to eat and can cause kidney stones, liver problems, stomach burns, and other problems.

An attempt has been made to assess the impact of agricultural credit on yield and income of paddy in Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh. Andhra Pradesh is basically an agrarian economy and by producing one-tenth of India total output of food grains. Initially the agriculturists depend more on non-institutional sources for their credit requirements which used to squeeze the blood of the poor peasants by charging high rates of interest.
