Soil testing is necessary for knowledge of characteristic of the soil‚ quantity of fertilizer is needed so that fertilizers are used only as needed‚ not too less or too much and to be able to follow better agricultural practices and achieve higher agricultural production.

assistance and to Colin Crook for his most helpful comments. ABSTRACT In this conceptual paper‚ we propose that the next stage of evolution of mass customization is customerization—a buyer-centric company strategy that combines mass customization with customized marketing. Spurred by the growth of Internet and related technologies‚ many leading companies (e.g.‚ Dell) are beginning to deploy customerization on a large scale. In this paper we define customerization‚ and describe how it is different from the

According to de Miranda and Harris (1994)‚ the presence of fertiliser in the soil or substrate‚ particularly Phosphorus‚ can influence the symbiosis relationship between the plants and the AMF by either hindering root colonisation or inhibiting plant growth. This was observed at the beginning of the experiment. No sprouting was observed in the pots treated with Glomus spp fertilizer until

Summary: Water pollution remains one of the most visible and persistent signs of our impact on the natural world. Cleanup of some older pollutants has been offset by new contaminants that threaten freshwater ecosystems and foul our drinking water. The sight and smell of grossly polluted waterways provided some of the original impetus to the environmental movement in the 1970s. Nearly a century before that‚ the dangers of polluted water to human health drove what became known as the "sanitary

He was in charge of forming a center for cross-disciplinary research and gave his country the knowledge of ammonia and other significant fertilizers. He left Germany in 1933 after their loss in WW1‚ and passed away in Switzerland in 1935. The Haber Process combines nitrogen from the air with hydrogen from natural gasses like methane into ammonia. This process is a reaction that ’s reversible

Inle Lake & The Floating Tomatoes In the Inle Lake‚ many of the Tomato farmers use pesticides and fertilizers to help their crops grow. This is resulting in an increase in pollution in the lake as well as their own health. They are not fully aware of the great affect it is having on them and the damage being done to their health‚ however they have stopped drinking from the lake as well as using the water from it to cook since they are aware that the lake is no longer as clean as it was.

In elementary school‚ the water cycle is taught. First‚ bodies of water evaporate water into the sky. Next‚ clouds form and the rain follows. The rain either soaks into the ground or turns into runoff to fill the streams and ponds. This cycle brings life to the planet. Humans‚ animals and plants depend on the constant refreshment of moisture. But‚ as humans have evolved‚ pollution has contaminated the precious water supply. The causes of pollution are sewage disposal‚ agriculture production‚ and

Mankind has relied on non-renewable resources for thousands of years‚ and only recently has it started to take its toll on the environment. Chemists have been experimenting with different types of fuels and adding to gasoline to make it more efficient. This is when ethanol made its debut into the fuel industry‚ as an additive to gasoline. Ethanol is put into gas as a combatant against water‚ which can find its way into fuel tanks of vehicles. It reduces the effect that this water has on the health
