The present research focuses onthe problems faced by sugarcane growers in adoption of production practices of sugarcane in district Naushahro Feroze. From taluka Moro and N. Feroze five villages were selected through multistage sampling techniques.Thus,makingasampleof75farmerswasrandomlyselected from the study area. Multistage plan was used to collect the data. It was observed that a high majority of the respondents had knowledge that land ploughing helps to increase the increase the yield stability rate of crops (60%). Regardingtimeofapplicationoffertilizers,majorityofrespondentshadpartial knowledge with 70 percent of the respondents having full knowledge regarding applicationofirrigationoncein10to15days. The results indicates that majority (40%) of the respondents adopt proper land preparation practices. The results indicated that the major constraints faced by percent of respondents were high cost of fertilizers and non-availability of credit facilities, non-availability of required quantity of fertilizers. In light of constraints faced the major suggestion expressed was providing credit at lowerinterest rate and at required time, cost of complex fertilizers should be reduced, conduct demonstrationsondifferentsustainablecultivationpracticesinsugarcanetoshowtheir efficacy, proper schedule of varietal harvesting must be followed by sugar factories, organizetrainingprogrammesonsustainablecultivationpracticesinsugarcane,provide pest and disease resistant varieties through sugar factories and research stations, conduct as many as group discussions, and exposure trip to sugarcane growers to convince the benefit of various sustainable cultivation practices, establish sugarcane growers club and conduct regular meetings with scientist and progressivefarmers

Many efforts are conducted to increase the fertilising efficiency, especially nitrogen in rice cultivation practices. This field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of zeolite on growth and production of lowland rice during rainy season in Badung, Bali. The experiment showed that fertilizer mixed with zeolite resulted in the same growth and productivity, although the fertilising doses was reduced. This means that zeolite incread fertilising efficiency in rice cultivation.

This chapter sets out the analytical framework of political settlements and elaborates the framework to account for the socialist experiences of Tanzania and Vietnam in the 1960s and 1970s. A political settlement, as defined by Mushtaq Khan, is a combination of power and institutions that is mutually compatible and also sustainable in terms of economic and political viability. The chapter clarifies the core building blocks of the approach and sets out the main differences between political settlements and new institutional economics. The chapter then defines a socialist political settlement where productive rights are formally held by the collective and formal institutions protect common and collectively owned assets. The attempts to construct a socialist political settlement left important institutional, political, and economic legacies. These shaped incentives and constraints which influenced a number of critical processes at the heart of economic development—related to technological learning, accumulation for investment, and political stabilization.

Floods are the highest-impact natural disasters. In agricultural basins, anthropogenic features are significant factors in controlling flood and erosion. A hydrological-hydraulic-erosion diagnosis is necessary in order to choose the most relevant action zones and to make recommendations for alternative land uses and cultivation practices in order to control and reduce floods and erosion. This chapter first aims to provide an overview of the flow processes represented in the various possible choices of model structure and refinement. It then focuses on the impact of the spatial distribution and temporal variation of hydrological soil properties in farmed basins, representing their effects on the modelled water and sediment flows. Research challenges and leads are then tackled, trying to identify the conditions in which sufficient adequacy exists between site data and modelling strategies.
