Revolutionising Himalayan Agriculture: The Magic of Nepalese-Alder Forests

Image
  Imagine a world where forests aren't just pretty backdrops, but vital life-giving forces. A recent study from Jawaharlal Nehru University has revealed a fascinating secret: the type of forest can significantly impact the health of nearby farmland. Researchers found that broadleaf forests, with their wider leaves, are more beneficial to soil health than coniferous forests. These forests promote the growth of beneficial microbes, increase organic matter content, and release essential nutrients, leading to healthier and more productive farms. An Agricultural Farm Near Forest The research, led by Shankar and Garkoti (2024) , published in journal Science of The Total Environment , highlights the pivotal role of Nepalese-alder ( Alnus nepalensis ) forests in enhancing soil quality and nutrient availability. This remarkable improvement is largely attributed to the alder’s nitrogen-fixing capabilities and higher microbial biomass, which contribute to better soil structure...

  🐪Another part of ‘Our Helping Friends’ series released🐫 Most camels surviving today are domesticated. Although feral populations exist in Australia, India and Kazakhstan, wild camels survive only in the wild Bactrian camel population of the Gobi Desert. After 3000 years of their domestication today approximately 3.3 million camels and camelids are slaughtered each year for meat worldwide but it is revealed that there is more dark truth behind this underrated organism’s life 🐪🌏🐫 #AnimalAbuse   #AnimalFriends   #AnimalPlanet   #AnimalProtection   #AnimalSeries   #Animaltrade   #Animals   #BactrianCamel   #BorderSecurityForceofIndian   #Camel   #Camelusdromedarius   #Culture   #Domestication   #DromedaryCamel   #ecofriendly   #Ecology   #Environment   #EnvironmentIndia   #environmentind   #EthicalTreatment   #Friends   #indenvironment   #India   #IndianCamel  ...

🐠Happy World Tuna Day🐠

Image
World Tuna Day is observed on 2 May every year to raise the awareness about tuna fish globally and to promote more sustainable fishing practices. More than seven million tonnes of tuna and tuna-like species are harvested yearly across the globe. These migratory tuna species account for 20 per cent of the value of all marine captured fisheries and over eight per cent of all globally traded seafood. It is integrated into the global seafood market with an annual value of more than $42 billion. This is making tuna vulnerable to overexploitation and raising concerns about its sustainable harvest. The conservation of tuna also helps in improving the marine ecosystem, which is the largest ecosystem on the planet. It is under stress due to poor and unsustainable management practices across the globe. 🐠🌏🐠

While it's no secret that the production of silk kills the very organism that produces it, even 30,000-50,000 silkworms are killed to make one six-yard sari. From silk to peace silk here we are giving some incredible info, on sericulture industry. 🐛🌏🐛 #silkworm #silk #ahimsasilk #environment #india #environmentind #indenvironment #agavesilk #peacesilk #sustainability #veganmarket #vegan #Bombyxmori #wildsilk #fibres #domestication #ecofriendly #ecology #invertebrates #KusumaRajaiah #resham #silkmoth #SilkDB #Sustainablefashion #fashion #Sustainablejobs #Vanya
