Jivamrit as a Sustainable Approach: A Review of Natural Farming and Future Agriculture.

Recent Adv Food Nutr Agric

October 2024

School of Applied Sciences and Technology, Gujarat Technological University, Chandkheda, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India.

Article Synopsis
  • - The Green Revolution aims to increase food production in India but has negative impacts on health and agriculture; natural manures like cow dung can help mitigate these issues by enhancing soil quality and crop yield.
  • - Zero Budget Natural Farming (ZBNF) practices, particularly with Jivamrit, promote healthier soils and contain essential nutrients while fostering beneficial microbes that improve plant growth.
  • - While Jivamrit uses natural substances to boost sustainable agriculture, long-term reliance on it could upset the microbial balance in the soil, underlining the need for careful management of agricultural practices.

Multi-functional textiles have become a growing trend among smart customers who dream of having multiple functionalities in a single product. Thus, this study aimed to develop a multi-functional textile from a common textile substrate like cotton equipped with electrically conductive, anti-bacterial, and flame-retardant properties. Herein, a bunch of compounds from various sources like petro-based poly-aniline (PANI), phosphoric acid (HPO), inorganic silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs), and biomass-sourced fish scale protein (FSP) were used.

Biodegradable scaffolds are important to regenerative medicine in that they provide an amicable environment for tissue regrowth. However, establishing structure-property (SP) relationships for scaffold design is challenging due to the complexity of the three-dimensional porous scaffold geometry. The complexity requires high-dimensional geometric descriptors.

As a pioneering battery technology, even though sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are safe, non-flammable, and capable of exhibiting better temperature endurance performance than lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), because of lower energy density and larger ionic size, they are not amicable for large-scale applications. Generally, the electrochemical storage performance of a secondary battery can be improved by monitoring the composition and morphology of electrode materials. Because more is the intricacy of a nanostructured composite electrode material, more electrochemical storage applications would be expected.

To enhance the efficiency of composting agricultural organic waste (AOW), this study aimed to examine the impact of inoculating tomato straw compost with two distinct microbial agents: ZymoZone (ZZ), a composite microbial agent derived from the straw compost and Effective Microorganisms (EM), a commercial microbial agent. Furthermore, in order to reactivate the microorganisms within the compost during the initial high temperature phase, 10% brown sugar was introduced as a carbon source. The objective of this addition was to assess its influence on the composting process.
