Overview The tractor industry reported a strong 28.3% growth in sales volumes during 2009-10‚ thereby ending the phase of cyclical correction that had pulled down tractor sales during the preceding two years (200709). Significantly‚ the revival of 2009-10 happened despite the droughtlike conditions in many States during the kharif1 season dampening sentiments. The key factor enabling the demand growth of 2009-10 was strong rural liquidity‚ which in turn was sustained by several factors‚ including:

The term subsistence agriculture refers to a self contained and self sufficient unit where most of the agricultural production is consumed and some may be sold in local market is sold. Characteristics of subsistence agriculture The main characteristics of traditional or subsistence agriculture in brief are as follows: (1) Land use . Traditional farms are very small usually only 1 to 3 hectares. The goods produced on these small farming units is used mainly for consumption

If agricultural tariff and subsidies to producers were removed overnight‚ what would the impact be on the average consumer in develop nations such as the United States and the EU countries. What would be the impact on average farmer? Do you think the total benefits overweight the total costs‚ or vice versa? For decades the rich countries of the developed world have levied subsidies on their farmers typically guaranteeing them a minimum price for the products they produce. The aim has been

Isotopes in Agriculture An isotope is a two or more atom that has different mass number but the same atomic number. An isotope is a variation of an element with a difference in the normal number of neutrons. The increased mass of an isotope can cause the chemical reactions they are used in to progress more slowly than a reaction that does not use isotopes. Not all isotopes are radioactive and there are many uses for them. They can be used in medicine‚ diagnose‚ nutrition‚ agriculture‚ research

Dangers of Agriculture H445 Occupational Health Agriculture ranks among the most hazardous industries. Farmers are at very high risk for fatal and nonfatal injuries‚ and farming is one of the few industries in which family members are also at risk for fatal and nonfatal injuries. In 1990‚ Congress directed NIOSH to develop an agricultural safety and health program to address the high risks of injuries and illnesses experienced by workers and families in agriculture. NIOSH supports

Chemistry (the etymology of the word has been much disputed)[1] is the science of matter and the changes it undergoes. The science of matter is also addressed by physics‚ but while physics takes a more general and fundamental approach‚ chemistry is more specialized‚ being concerned with the composition‚ behavior (or reaction)‚ structure‚ and properties of matter‚ as well as the changes it undergoes during chemical reactions.[2] It is a physical science which studies various substances‚ atoms‚ molecules

Nuclear Chemistry: The Good vs. the Ugly The definition for nuclear chemistry is the application of chemical techniques to the solution of problems in nuclear physics. This includes the discovery of naturally occurring and synthetic radioactive elements and the results of nuclear fission. There are both pros and cons in nuclear chemistry. People believe that nuclear chemistry is bad for the environment but there are a lot of great things that can come out of this. Things like medical uses‚ food
