Let's grow brinjal easily

 Let's grow  brinjal easily Soil - Well-drained, fine-grained soil is suitable for brinjal cultivation. It is best to maintain the soil pH between 5.5 - 5.8. Climatic requirements - brinjal can be grown in areas with good sunlight, from sea level to an altitude of about 1300 meters. Seed requirement - About 350 grams per hectare. Nursery Management - Beds of 3 meters by 1 meter, arranged to receive the best sunlight, are suitable. The beds should be seeded. Add soil and manure in a 1:1 ratio. The seeds should be placed in rows with a spacing of 6 inches. Land preparation - Turn and level the land with a hoe or tractor. Planting - Plant the seedlings about 25-30 days old in prepared beds, one seedling per hole. Spacing - 90 cm x 60 cm. Watering - In dry areas, brinjal can also be cultivated with rainwater. Watering should be done to obtain a successful harvest and maintain it as a profitable crop. It is important to water the soil well during dry periods without allowing it...

Air pollution

    Air pollution Air pollution is a pressing global issue that affects the health of our planet and its inhabitants. It encompasses a complex mixture of pollutants, including particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, and volatile organic compounds, emitted from various sources such as industrial activities, transportation, agriculture, and energy production. Despite being largely invisible, the detrimental effects of air pollution on human health, ecosystems, and climate are undeniable. Health Impacts  Respiratory Disease s  Long-term exposure to air pollutants has been linked to respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and lung cancer. Fine particulate matter, known as PM2.5, can penetrate deep into the lungs, causing inflammation and respiratory distress. Cardiovascular Effects Air pollution is also associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, including heart attacks and stroke...
