Rural women have now demonstrated that they not only contribute significantly to India’s socioeconomic growth but also play a critical role in dairy farming.  As a supplementary activity to the agriculture sector, milk production in India is mostly centred on marginal and small farm size groups in rural regions. In addition, the cooperatives milk producers’ union represents a handful of organised dairy farms. In this nation, the animals’ limited genetic potential contributes to their high cost and insufficient milk output.
Farming methods in the poor countries differ greatly in how profitable milk production is. This is a result of low animal production and an ineffective marketing-chain structure, which makes it difficult for farmers to make money from their dairying operations. Customers are not effectively provided for due to the absence of cooling facilities for milk storage and the necessity of adulterating the raw product along the market chain to increase profit margins. The purchase of higher-quality feeds and veterinary medicines, along with cooperative milk sales, have increased the financial resilience of small-holder farming communities all over the world. However, the co-operative model has not been successful in many areas, largely due to a lack of trust between families even within the communities. Commercial realities requires agricultural communities to collaborate in order to attain financial sustainability, albeit the specific model used by each group may vary.

One of the biggest issues on the planet right now is pollution. To meet the demand for agricultural products and to feed the expanding population, farmers use a variety of chemical fertilisers to boost production and control weeds and insect pests. Overuse of synthetic pesticides and fertilisers has had a detrimental effect on both the environment and human health. The increasing destruction of environmental resources is therefore the biggest threat to humanity on the globe. The rapidly rising population in emerging countries intensified the mismatch between human wants and resource sustainability. Chemical fertilisers have increased agricultural output while causing severe environmental and health problems. Chemical fertilisers’ phosphates and nitrates are the main contributors to water pollution.

The significant adsorption isotherms, Freundlich constants (K, and N), dissemination coefficient (Kd), and other thermodynamic boundaries were used to take into account the adsorption thermodynamics of endosulphan on Tarai sandy topsoil soil at 10 °C, 20 °C, and 40 °C, respectively. The data were well fitted by the Freundlich condition and yielded L-formed isotherms at all of the temperatures considered. In order to anticipate the concept of the adsorption cycle, thermodynamic boundaries such as the thermodynamic balance steady (Ko), the standard free energy change (G°), the standard enthalpy change (H°), and the standard entropy change (S°) have been established.

You will learn briefly about the application of biotechnology in agriculture in this article. The best definition of biotechnology is the application of scientific methods to enhance and change the value of microbes, plants, and animals. Biotechnology has been a part of several industries throughout the years, including genetic engineering, agriculture, and medicine. The general public who are not experts in the field but are interested in taking part in the current discussion regarding the future of genetically modified crops is the target audience for this introductory essay. This subject is especially pertinent at this time since a new round of international trade negotiations will be discussed in Seattle in December 1999, and one of the topics up for discussion will be the international commerce of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). This essay only discusses genetically engineered plants. In the future, CAST plans to publish a number of studies that will go into further detail and consider genetic manipulation in a wider context than just crops.

Immunologic defence against economically significant livestock illnesses is provided through vaccines. When vaccinations are administered at the wrong time, recipients are immunosuppressed, and/or the infectious challenge is higher than the immunologic protection provided by immunisation, vaccine efficacy may not be realised. Because there are few randomised, controlled field trials that assess vaccine effectiveness and some vaccination practises flout vaccine label instructions, vaccine recommendations for cattle sometimes rely on anecdotal evidence and tradition rather than scientific data. Veterinarians should take into account recent studies comparing the effectiveness of on-arrival vs delayed immunisation in freshly acquired stocker and feedlot animals observed in the field. Additionally, when two or more gram-negative bacterins are supplied simultaneously, the danger of endotoxicity increases, thus veterinarians and producers should avoid endotoxin stacking.

Nitrogen gas (N2) is the most abundant component of the Earth’s atmosphere, comprising approximately 78% of the air we breathe. However, atmospheric nitrogen is largely inert and cannot be directly utilized by plants. It needs to be converted into a usable form, such as ammonium (NH4+) or nitrate (NO3-), through biological or industrial processes. Rajasthan soil, being an arid and semi-arid region, may face challenges in terms of nitrogen availability due to low organic matter content and limited microbial activity. The nitrogen gas present in the atmosphere cannot be directly utilized by crops unless it undergoes biological nitrogen fixation or is supplemented with nitrogen fertilizers. Biological nitrogen fixation is a natural process carried out by certain bacteria, such as Rhizobium in legume root nodules, or free-living soil bacteria, like Azotobacter and Azospirillum. These bacteria convert atmospheric nitrogen into ammonium, making it available to plants.

Rapid industrialization and urbanisation practises have put water and agricultural soils in grave danger, affecting crop output around the world and raising significant questions about food security. However, some other metals like mercury (Hg), lead (Pb), arsenic (As), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), and others are toxic even at low concentrations. The majority of heavy metals (HMs), such as zinc (Zn), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), and others, are essential for plant metabolic pathways when present in low amounts and become toxic at higher concentrations. The HMs stress is one of the various abiotic stresses that can alter the soil’s health and the ability of economic plants to use their resources. Plants that are legumes are members of the Fabaceae family, one of the largest families with 700 genera and 20,000 species. This chapter deals with the HM-initiated plant responses upon key metabolic processes such as seed germination, plant growth, photosynthetic pigments.

The review also provides insights into sustainable soil management practices that can enhance soil health and subsequently improve plant growth. Overall, a comprehensive understanding of the interconnections between soil health and plant growth is essential for sustainable agricultural practices and ecosystem resilience. In terms of the ability of the roots to absorb water and nutrients, plants can react to soil conditions in ways that are difficult to describe. Especially if the plants’ water supply is in jeopardy, roots that detect tough soil conditions may send inhibitory signals to the shoots that harden the plants against the effects of a deteriorating or constricting environment. This tendency is typically understood to be a feedforward reaction to the soil becoming too dry or too hard, or to the amount of accessible soil being extremely little, as with bonsai plants, or to the roots getting infected with diseases. Uncertainty surrounds the importance of significant conservative reactions that can also be induced by excessively soft soil or dirt where the roots are compelled to grow in very large pores.
