Review on Climate Change and its Impact on Agriculture of Arunachal Pradesh in the Northeastern Himalayan Region of India

摘要

The physico-chemical characteristics of effluents from two different industries, viz. textile and sugarfactory, were assessed and the effect of various concentrations (0%, 25%, 50%, 75 % and 100%)on mineral uptake in Triticum aestivum and Raphanus sativus was determined. The study revealedthat the germination % of wheat and radish was severely affected by these effluents at higherconcentration, where a maximum germination was recorded at 25% effluent concentration. Theuptake of iron, phosphate, zinc and copper was found in increasing order and was highest at 100%effluent concentration. The above study reveals the feasibility of using industrial effluent for growingvegetables and crops with proper dilution.
