 Abstract

There is a coherent and internal relationship between soil and all living organism on the earth. Soil and water act as mechanical and organic units in all respect in the life of all living creature.So,Survival rests on the top soil which is known as life supporting due to the productiveness of this layer. Koraput and Malkangiri are the southern most districts of Odisha. Both the districts are located in south Eastern most Ghat mountain range. Some parts of the area occur at 150-1000 meters above the Mean Sea Level (MSL). The rigion is characterized by scatted, isolated, sharp and some series hills with forest cover.The evidences of soil erosion and degradation in this region shows a cause of multipurpose reservoirs in Machhakund-Sileru catchment area.. Gullies and ravines are steadily encroaching into productive table land of many major command areas Excessive deforestation, overgrazing, faulty agricultural practice and the industrialization is the causes of erosion. Factors like climate (temperature, rainfall and wind), vegetation, topography (degree and lengrh of slope) and soil type (infiltration, permeability, soil depth, particle size) ultimately refers to its erosivity. The paper includes the analytical framework of soil economics with four objectives, which based on firstlt,to appriciate hydro-electric projects and its Potential located in Machhakund-Sileru catchment area. Secondly,to know the entire soil profile of Koraput and Malkangiri districts which come under Machhakund-Sileru catchment area of Odisha.Thirdly,to focus various watershed and sub-watershed projects established in the Machhakund-Sileru catchment area and fourthly,to find ecological balance with tribal gain due to the implementation soil conservation programmes by the department. Soil conservation activities are undertaken various agro-economical and socio-economic measures. The central government has launched many policies, Programmes to protect the soil erosion and to increase the productivity in the region. Various approaches like watershed management, promoting farm crops (cashew, mango, sisal, etc.) have been an effective tool for rural transformation and natural resource management. Watershed project is a useful technique for soil conservation process. The benefits of watershed are based on afforestation, gully control, conserve fertile top soil and percolating and run off recycling with ground water recharge.

 Abstract

This article describe and applies the discriminant analysis module in this study to evaluate the influence of faculty members socio- economic characteristics on the use of Social networks in KSWU Bijapur. Data were obtained from 105 faculty members selected through stratified sampling method. The discriminant analysis was used to analyze the collected data. In the present study nine predicator variables are used to assess the use of social networking, among these variables, Communication (.725), Sharing photos (.409), Entertainment (.184), Domicile (.132) and Gender (.065) have made positive contribution towards use of social networking and while other four variables namely Research (-.230) Age (-.150), Income (-.028) and New updates/events (.05) have made negative contribution towards discriminant between heavy user group and low user group. Further it can be reveals that Communication, Sharing photos, Research, and age are the highest discriminating variables and make significant contribution as discriminators between the heavy user group and low user group for the use of social networks by the faculty members. Finally it can be concluded that priority should be given to communication and other positive variables to enhance the use of social networking.

 Abstract

Constructivism has occurred in recent years as a prevailing approach in English Language Teaching. Among other innovative methods and approaches, constructivism has proved more helpful in the development of English communicative skills. The present paper studies constructivism as an innovative strategy in which the language learners construct their knowledge themselves through interaction with each-other on the basis of previous experiences. The paper offers the principles of constructivist theory and describes the characteristics of a constructivist teacher. Constructivism presents a radically different view about the process of education. This paper talks about constructivist language classrooms vision education as a meaning making development and centre their attention on the construction of knowledge and language by learners.

 Abstract

The present study is an attempt to assess the growth and performance of Punjab Mandi Board in handling of fruits and vegetables. The stratified random sampling technique was used to select markets based on volume of market arrivals. The secondary data on various parameters such as market arrivals, market fee, income, expenditure, etc were collected from the headquarters of Punjab Mandi Board and the selected market committees. The study indicated that share of fruits and vegetables to total market arrivals showed erratic trend and increased from 6.69 to 8.84 percent over the years. The annual compound growth for the market fees was 9.32, 13.31 and 8.03 of small, medium and large market respectively. The real investment of Punjab Mandi Board on development of mandis and market yard and investment at current price have declined, while in case of link road and grading, the real investment increased but fluctuated over the period.
