This paper is aimed at strengthening policy reforms in the area of agriculture credit delivery system for the sustainability of agriculture for food security and rural development. In India strengthening of agriculture is important for elimination of rural poverty, food insecurity, unemployment and sustainability of natural resources. But till today strengthening of agriculture was meant to be ...

This paper describes how the social capital of rice farmers of the Mekong Delta of Vietnam, as manifested in the tradition of collective farming practice, has changed. Collective rice farming persisted for decades, irrespective of critical events that challenged its continuation, due to two key factors: the high need for collective farming to ensure subsistence, and the availability of a closel...

The Green Revolution of the 1960s brought about a dramatic rise in global crop yields. But, as most observers acknowledge, this has come at a considerable cost to biodiversity. Plant breeding, synthetic fertilizers, and mechanization steadily narrowed the number of crop varieties commercially available to farmers and promoted fencerow-to-fencerow monocultures. Many historians trace the origins ...

In recent years, there have been several outbreaks of extensive flooding in northern provinces, and asparagus stem blight disease brown spot diseases become increasingly serious, significantly reducing the yield grown large fields, so production has developed toward facility agriculture. order to solve problems high labor cost, shortage, low efficiency faced by agriculture, it is an inevitable ...

Affected by global economic pressure and epidemics, sustainable agriculture has received widespread attention from farmers agricultural engineers. Throughout history, technology closely followed the pace of scientific technological development footsteps mechanization, automation, intelligence to progress continuously. At this stage, artificial (AI) is dominating field advancing agriculture. How...

In Asia, decreasing farmer and labor populations due to various factors is a serious problem that leads to increases in labor costs, higher harvesting input energy consumption and less resource utilization. To solve these problems, researchers are engaged in providing long term and low-tech alternatives in terms of mechanization and automation of agriculture by way of efficient, low cost and ea...

The labor shortage and the aging problem of farmers are serious problem for Japanese agriculture. In order to solve those problems, this research suggested that the smart mechanization system should play an important role for food production. The Autonomous Transportation Vehicles (ATVs) has a possibility to achieve this task. ATVs was applied with a CCD camera for vehicle control (i.e. for str...

umen tympanic due to metallic or non metallic (mostly polythene material) are among the most common cause of gastro intestinal disorders in ruminants (Radostatis etal, 1994). Plastics can be termed as wide range of chemical materials either synthetic or semi synthetic solidmaterials like polyethylene,polyvinyle chloride,polysterine largely used in plastics manufacturing industry which pose a th...

Recent industrialization and globalizations are changing the Indian occupational morbidity drastically. Traditionally labor-oriented markets are on change towards more automation and mechanization, at the same time general awareness about occupational safety, occupational and environmental hazards were not spread in the society. This review will provide an overview of existing evidence from com...

Japanese encephalitis (JE), a vector-borne viral disease, is endemic to large parts of Asia and the Pacific. An estimated 3 billion people are at risk, and JE has recently spread to new territories. Vaccination programs, increased living standards, and mechanization of agriculture are key factors in the decline in the incidence of this disease in Japan and South Korea. However, transmission of ...
