Keywords: Agricultural monitoring system, OQoS-MRP, Quality of service, Wireless sensor networks
Abstract: As the wireless sensor networks (WSNs) continue to evolve, it becomes more and more significant in our day-to-day lives. By using WSN technology and the basic principles of the Internet, designing an agricultural monitoring system (AMS) becomes important for improving agriculture in India. The AMS is low-power conservation with high precision, which can realize remote, real-time monitoring for unattended farmlands. WSNs are a promising approach used in AMS, but finding an optimal route discovery is more problematic due to dynamicity, heterogeneity, resource scarcity, and so on. The proposed optimized QoS-based multipath routing protocol (OQoS-MRP) for the WSNs in AMS is used to find near-optimal multi-hop communication path from sink to sensors for selecting the next hop neighbour nodes. The best case paths selection procedure is used for transferring data to sink. According to the QoS metrics, the performance of this communication protocol is evaluated and compared with the other existing protocols, namely, EE-LEACH and MRBCH. The simulation result shows that OQoS-MRP for the AMS achieves prominent data communication with reasonable energy conservation. It also reduces transmission delay and communication overhead on the basis of ensuring the outcome of the entire network.

Subject: Water complexities due potential of hydrogen (pH) in Lake waters of Kashmir Valley
Keywords: Kashmir water lakes, Ligands, Metal ions, pH-metric studies, Glycine and cysteine
Abstract: The stability of heavy metal complexes cannot be accounted by a single factor, each is considered separately in terms of ligands or vice-versa, hence revealing that he stability constants show a large variation in values. The stability constants of heavy-metal complexes in the solution phase are generally considered as being stable or unstable, depending on the strength of the bond between heavy metal ion and ligands. The stability of a complex is very often expressed in terms of the stability constant, which is used to describe the equilibrium behavior of metal complexes. This paper studies the interacting behavior of the prototype heavy-metal ions and ligands as fund in the water bodies in the lake waters of the Kashmir Valley.

Subject: 0.75 hp Solar water pumping systems as an irrigation option for small and marginal farmers
Keywords: Solar water pumping systems, Sprinklers, irrigation, Crops, Remote villages
Abstract: Only 36 % of the total cropped ae in India falls under irrigated land and the rest 64% is rainfed. According to the 2010/11 Cenus [1], out of 85% of the total farmer families, more than 67% belong to the marginal farmers and 18% to small farmers. Many times, the land is fragmented into 2-3 different patches. Irrigation is an important aspect in agriculture to improve agricultural productivity and reduced dependence on rains. Irrigation can be powered either by electricity or diesel, wherein the operational cost of diesel-based irrigation is much higher and also not very environmentally friendly. In this context, the introduction of solar-powered water pumping system is a good option in the remote areas where grid supply is either intermittent or not available at all. This article discusses the initiative where solar water pumps for irrigation were tested in small and marginal farms in Golaghat District.

Abstract: Today, a large fleet of satellites and systems are assisting the armed forces to plan, manage and execute their operations efficiently. Effective monitoring of long borders and extensive areas require capturing images at large swath and high-resolution image with image processing and analytics in orbit solutions, contributing to the armed forces' decision-making process and enhancing ground operations. However, monitoring for a large country like India has a particular set of challenges.

Abstract: The 2030 Agenda for sustainable development, with its ambitious 17 goals and 169 targets, aims to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all. However, the success of these goals and targets would depend on developing the rural areas where most of the world's poor live.
More resources would need to be allocated for investment in rural areas, not just because that is where most of the poor live but also because these areas have a great potential for economic development (SOFA 2017). The rural population worldwide is vulnerable to livelihood shocks and climate variability.
