A study on the influence of socio-economic factors on knowledge and technology adoption of sericulture farmers of Aizawl district of Mizoram

Sericulture has been playing a vital role in developing the economic condition of the poor farmers of Mizoram. It has been a sustainable livelihood for last three decades. The recent new and improved sericulture technologies and their adoption at farmers’ level has increased the quantity and quality of raw silk production to a new height. However, the productivity of raw silk in Kg per hectare of the State and productivity of raw silk at national levels still very wide. There is also a wide gap between present production and potential production. Hence, the present study is aimed to know the influence of socio-economic factors such as farmers’ education, experience, age, extension participation, extension contact on knowledge and adoption of improved sericultural technologies among three sericultural villages of Aizawl District of Mizoram. The study revealed that education, experience, farm size and extension contact have a positive relationship with knowledge and adoption level, leading to significant increase in cocoon yield and productivity. Hence, the findings of the study concluded that for the dissemination of new technologies, farmers’ socio-economic conditions and factors must also be considered for successful and effective adoption.

Manual analysis of VILLA and Comparison of result with STADD-PRO analysis

Structural designing is the primary aspect of civil engineering. The foremost basic in Structural designing is the design of simple basic components and members of building Like beams, columns, and footings in order to design them it is important to first obtain The plan of a particular building.There by depending on the suitability plan layout of beams and columns are fixed. Once the loads are obtained the component takes the load first is slab so the first slab is designed. designing of slabs depends upon whether it is a one way or a two-way slab the end conditions and loading .from the slab the load gets transferred to beam.The loads coming from the slabs onto the beam may be trapezoidal or triangular. Depending on this the beam may be designed. Thereafter loads (mainly shear) from the beams are taken by the columns. for designing columns it is necessary to know the moments they are subjected to. For this purpose frame analysis is done by Kane’s method. After this, the designing of columns is taken up depending on end conditions moments, eccentricity. Finally, footings are designed based on the loading from the column and also soil bearing capacity value for that particular area.

Prediction of peak particle velocity through regression equation

The main objective of this report is to develop parameters that can be used as a guide for persons carrying out blasting activities at residential areas, industrial site, and mainly in mines so that we can provide better safety to the employees, residents, historical monuments, due to the hazard of ground vibration. In order to develop a greater awareness that ground vibration induced by blasting does not always result in structural damage.

Genetic potential analysis of productivity in Holstein dairy cattle

In domestic livestock production, one of the most complex sectors livestock is dairy cattle breeding. Milk yields >10,000 kg/year are common in modern dairy production, owing to improved nutrition, management, and genetic gains through the use of progeny-tested bulls. However, reproductive performance has decreased worldwide in many cows with a high genetic potential for milk production, particularly in the Holstein breed. the production of milk has been observed in the Al-hiera project in Libya through the importation of highly productive pedigree dairy cattle from abroad. Everywhere, old farms are being reconstructed, new complexes are being constructed that are not inferior to the dairy equipment of foreign level. The intensive technology of dairy cattle breeding is a complex of highly effective methods of breeding, feeding, keeping and using animals, ensuring their high productivity, labor productivity, production culture and product quality. Central to the introduction of intensive technologies is breeding work, the goal of which is to search for the most valuable heredity potential. The article shows that there are no significant differences between the experimental groups with age and those differences that were found to be statistically not authentic. The superiority in the milk productivity of cows obtained from the "refreshment" of blood in the third lactation over the local dildos did not affect their reproductive ability. This is evident from the service period in cows in the third lactation, which is 52 days in the control group and 63 days in the control group cows.

The influence of the genotype on the longevity and the lifelong productivity of Holstein breed

This article is devoted to the study of the influence of the genotype on the Holstein Frisian on economic longevity and the lifelong productivity of cows. Indicators of the productive longevity of 1017 purebred Holstein Frisian and cross-bred cows with a different share of genes by Holstein breed, who left the herd of Dairy cattle at Al-hiera project for 2009 and 2010 were studied. Also, the values and orientation of the correlation links of the economic longevity period with indices of lifetime productivity of experimental cows of different genotypes were determined. It was found that in experimental animals with an increase in the genotype share of genes in the Holstein breed, a positive trend was observed to increase milk yield per day of lactation, and a negative tendency to decrease the duration of productive use, lifelong dairy productivity, and economic efficiency. In all groups, a high positive correlation was found between the duration of use of cows and lifelong milk yield, the duration of use of cows and their lifelong yield of milk fat, as well as between lifetime milk yield and a lifetime yield of milk fat. The presence of a weak correlation between the indices of milk yield per day of lactation and longevity has been established. The yield of lactation for one day was positively associated with lifelong milk yield and the yield of milk fat: in the group of black-and-white cows and hybrids with Holstein blood, not more than 50.0%, the correlation was weak, and in high-blooded hybrids - average. The most significant effect of the genotype was on the variability of indicators of lifelong milk yield and milk fat production.

English class fifth graders: A description

This paper provides a baseline description of fifth graders in a regular English class located in an urban school. This study described the three regular English fifth-grader classes in three School Years of a public elementary school. There were 121 pupils profiled with data on their ages, gender, nutritional status and English final grades. Multiple regression analysis was used to correlate the academic grades in English with the ages, gender and nutritional status of the pupils under study. Percentages, frequency, mean and standard error were computed to describe the results. Results showed that almost similar number of boys and girls were enrolled each year. Majority of the pupils are in their expected grade level and have normal nutritional status. Gender was found to have the significant relationship with English final grades of the pupils. This finding implies that pupil activities and teacher facilitation must incorporate the gender-specific design of activities to better facilitate learning in both language and reading.
