Designing a productive, profitable integrated farming system model with low water footprints for small and marginal farmers of Telangana.

In the years 2021-2022 and 2022-2023, an experiment was carried out at the IFS Unit, College of Agriculture, PJTSAU, Rajendranagar in order to determine the best one-acre integrated farming system model for Telangana's small and marginal farmers. Seven farm models among which six models were developed by combining the various components i.e.

Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of quinoxaline bearing tetrahydropyridine derivatives as anticancer, antioxidant, and anti-tubercular agents.

Background: Quinoxaline and Tetrahydropyridine derivatives showed various biological properties. The combination of these two scaffolds may contribute to good biological activity and may give novel and efficacious bioactive candidates.

Objective: The present study aimed to identify bioactive agents with quinoxaline bearing tetrahydropyridine derivatives possessing anticancer, antioxidant, and anti-tubercular agents.

Atmospheric rivers fueling the intensification of fog and haze over Indo-Gangetic Plains.

Indo-Gangetic Plains (IGP) experiences persistent and widespread rise of fog and haze during the winter season. This has been attributed to the rise in pollution levels and water vapor, but the reason for enhancement in latter is not clear yet. We detect moisture incursion from Arabian Sea, a phenomenon called atmospheric rivers (AR), land-falling intermittently along 12-25° N corridor of the west-coast of India during winter; using satellite and reanalysis data.

Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel antipyrine based α-aminophosphonates as anti-Alzheimer and anti-inflammatory agent.

Herein, a series of novel antipyrine based α-aminophosphonates derivatives were synthesized and characterized. The synthesized derivatives were subjected for cholinesterase inhibition, enzyme kinetic studies, protein denaturation assay, proteinase inhibitory assay and cell viability assay. For cholinesterase inhibition, the results inferred that the test compounds possess better AChE activity (0.

Planetary albedo decline over Northwest India contributing to near surface warming.

The increase in frequency and severity of heat waves during the pre-monsoon season (March-May) over Northwest India in recent decades is alarming. This study investigates the causative mechanism for warming through the forcing induced by planetary albedo changes over Northwest India, a hotspot for land-cover change. We use satellite-measured planetary albedo (α) and satellite-derived land-use-land-cover (LULC) data to estimate the impact of LULC changes from 2001 to 2018 on α and the associated radiative forcing.
