six year programme (1951-57) which was suspended for two years before its completion‚ emphasis was laid on the establishment of industries. Agriculture remained stagnant during this period‚ rather declined due to an increase in water logging and salinity. Pakistan had to import over 1 million of tons of wheat in 1952 to meet the acute food shortage. The Planning Machinery then‚ realized that agriculture shouldn’t remain neglected and it should be developed along with industry. In the First Five

Pressure desalination also known as reverse osmosis desalination requires low pressures which in turn requires less energy.

The Freshwater Biome By Lauren Finnis The freshwater biome is a complex biome that can be found all over the world. There are two major types of freshwater biomes. The first type is lotic or running which include rivers and streams. Lentic or standing is the second type; those include lakes and ponds. Since this biome is found worldwide‚ the species that reside in it can vary extensively‚ but usually it contains several species of fish‚ plants‚ and insects. Predation is a way of life in the freshwater

RESEARCH PAPER ON BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF ACTINOMYCETES ................ ABSTRACT: The microorganisms are ubiquitous in nature. They are found in probably every environmental condition present on earth. Actinomycetes were originally considered to be an intermediate group between bacteria and fungi but now are recognized as prokaryotic organisms with high G+C (>55%) content in their DNA. Our project aim is to evaluate some biological activities of Actinomycetes like:

Oxygen – Carbon dioxide Cycle The Carbon Dioxide- Oxygen Cycle relates to the relationship between Carbon Dioxide [CO2] breathing plants and Oxygen [O2] breathing life forms. All oxygen-breathing life forms take in Oxygen and exhale CO2. Plants take in the CO2 and use it in their photosynthesis process and in turn give off oxygen. The Carbon Dioxide-Oxygen Cycle is a continuously occurring process whereby animals inhale Oxygen and then exhale carbon dioxide‚ and plants use the CO2 and "exhale"

Billions of years ago planet Earth did not look like it does today‚ it was covered in lava and volcanoes. There was no possible way that life could exist on the planet. However‚ eventually the planet started cooling down; huge amounts of steam rose causing clouds. Then the clouds rained. One thousand years of continuous raining caused oceans which made earth like it is today. Planet Earth‚ also known as the blue planet‚ has oceans covering three quarters of the Earth’s surface. Oceans have a

Elements of weather and climate[edit] There are several elements that make up the weather and climate of a place. The major of these elements are five: temperature‚ pressure‚ wind‚ humidity and rain. Analysis of these elements can provide the basis for forecasting weather. These same elements make also the basis of climatology study‚ of course‚ within a different time scale rather than it does in meteorology. Modifying factors of weather and climate[edit] The more important are also five: latitude

Two possible side effects of storm surges on crops could be the high water pressures that would most
