Impact of Elevated Soil Temperature on Physiological Parameters of Tea Plant Growing Adjacent to Gas Flaring Site

Gas flaring is now recognized as a major environmental problem. Smoking flare may be significant contributor to overall particulate emissions. It also results in production of excessive heat the nearby areas. The present investigation aims study impact elevated soil temperature on physiological parameters tea plant growing adjacent site. experimental plot was laid out 5 x 2 factorial RCBD with two factors viz. different distances from site and seasons gardens Kathaloni OCS Merbil Majuli 6 Dibrugarh district Assam 2019-20. Plant samples were collected estimation some select done. Significant increase decrease moisture content observed distance closer pit. result revealed that there gradual decline relative turgidity, specific leaf weight, plucking point density, stomatal count, area measurement, polyphenol content, chlorophyll caffeine but an water saturation deficit green leaves plants existing at moving A rain flushing season compared autumn all except deficit.
