Abstract:

Laboratory experiments were carried out for two years to study the effect of different storage materials on the infestation of Sitophilus oryzae on stored rice grains using different storage containers namely gunny-bags, polythene-bags, cloth-bags, polythene coated cloth-bags and earthen pots. Considering the storage material from the present studies, cloth bags registered the highest damaged grain percent with 39.47% at 90 DAS while the lowest was recorded from the polythene bags with 28.31%. At the same time greatest grain weight loss was also recorded from the cloth bags (32.00%) and the lo

Abstract: Despite all known hazards of plastic pollution, it's prevalent and pervasive in India. Polythene bags are major contributors to it. Polythene bag production is easier and cost effective as compared to its eco-friendly alternatives. Paper bags are the closest economical alternative to the polythene bag. This project tries to address several issues that makes paper bag production economically incompetent with polythene bags. Initially the paper bag making process was a manual process, which involves the process of gluing the three sides and cutting the bags one by one, which required a

The bunch was wrapped in a variety of bags, including white polythene bag, blue polythene bag, muslin cloth bag, gunny bag, brown paper bag and non-bagging (control). The study was designed as a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replicates. The results showed that banana bunch covered with brown paper bags were ready to harvest 16 days earlier than those in the control. In addition, bagging increased fruit length, diameter, weight

Seed plays an important role in agricultural sector for both production and consumption purpose. Availability of vigour seed is one of the major constraints for maximizing crop production. However, healthy seed can also lose its viability during seed storage by changing different physio-chemical properties. Influence of environmental factors and seed containers during storage leading to seed deterioration. In this research, mid storage seed hardening treatment was applied in different aged seeds of jute species (C. Capsularis & C. olitorius) with two types of storage bags. Seed hardening t
