Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Contents: 1. Introduction. 2. Hydroponic systems. 3. Hydroponics media and containers. 4. Hydroponics: greenhouse application. 5. Hydroponics: nutrition. 6. Hydroponic systems: design and construction. 7. Do it yourself: different hydroponic units. 8. Problems in hydroponic cultivation. 9. Glossary. 10. Appendix. Soil less cultivation is a new science. Today great and growing interest is been shown by all section of the public in its possibilities and uses. The new method of soil less cultivation is now offered to the main-in-street and steady, reliable, cheap and very easy technique. Multiple cropping and intense-cultures by hydroponic means will have profound effect in the soil in the social life of the nation. The states lacking in soil resource and water resource would find soil less culture ideal. To the urban people this is a fortune to have soil less gardening in their doorstep and to floor. By bringing cheap and nourishing food within the reach of all even the poorest-hydroponics offers a real value too humanly, commercial application of this technique has very advantages like higher crop yields, growing all around the year, high value crops, space requirement, no after cultivation with improved quality. The yield is estimated to be 2-3 times more than the conventional agriculture practices. This book is mainly intended to create awareness on soil less cultivation, basic principles, advantages, systems in practices, different media nutrient management operation, constraints and problems. Suitable figures of illustration will arouse interest to readers and contribute to society and nation towards self-sufficiency. Hydroponics offers the promise of feeding the millions of starring people around the world. Many of the greenhouse operation are hydroponic in nature. The beneficiates includes retail chain, defense establishment, public sector companies, hotel chains, processed food industry, catering series, corporate hospitals NGO's foreign retail companies, public-private partnerships. The system has the major potential for the realization of environmentally suitable urban food.…

The Asian Mega Tsunami (2004) has struck most of the territorial nations of South Asia including the East Coast of India. The NRDMS Division Department of Science and Technology Government of India New Delhi has conceived and executed an All India Co ordinated Programme on Tsunami Disaster Assessment and Mitigation through various institutions of expertise on Geomatics in earth system dynamics and the related natural disasters. The Geomatics technology which includes Arial Photography photogrammetry satellite remote sensing digital image processing GPS surveys GIS modeling etc. was used in this programme geospatial data bases were created on Tsunami disasters over natural physical and human resources and futuristic mitigation strategies were evolved therefrom. The book illuminates the results of the studies carried out along the Indian Coast and a bird's eye view on the tsunami studies in Norway. In addition some special papers on the role of mangroves as Tsunami mitigator impacts of Tsunami over marine water quality coral ecosystem etc the administrator's experience over the tsunami crisis management NGO's perspective certain societal issues triggered by the killer Tsunami and citizen's perspective etc. also find a place in this volume.
