Carbon footprints and carbon sequestration.pptxshivalika6
Climate change being today’s major issue is concerned with the unprecedented increase in natural resource exploitation and uncontrolled population increase, reaching in an irreversible point. Greenhouse gases (GHGs) responsible for such changes are emitted by a variety of natural as well as anthropogenic sources.
Agriculture sector shares a major proportion in total GHG emission. As the food demand is increasing with the rising population, the proportion of GHG emissions from agricultural sector is also increasing.
Global food production now faces greater challenges than ever before due to changing climate, increasing land degradation and decreasing nutrient use efficiency. Nutrient mining is a major cause of low crop yields in parts of the developing world. Especially nitrogen and phosphorus move beyond the bounds of the agricultural field due to inappropriate management practices as well as failure to achieve good congruence between nutrient supply and crop nutrient demand (Pandian et al. 2014). Climate changes raised a serious issue of soil health maintenance for future generations. Rise in temperature and unprecedented changes in precipitation pattern lead to soil degradation by the erosion of top fertile soil, loss of carbon, nitrogen and increasing area under saline, sodic and acid soils. The climate is one of the key elements impacting several cycles connected to soil and plant systems, as well as plant production, soil quality and environmental quality. Due to heightened human activity, the rate of CO2 is rising in the atmosphere. Changing climatic conditions (such as temperature, CO2 and precipitation) influence plant nutrition in a range of ways, comprising mineralization, decomposition, leaching and losing nutrients in the soil. In order to meet the food demand of the growing population, global food production must be increased substantially over the next several decades. Sustainable intensification of agriculture, based on proven technologies, can increase food production on existing land resources. Therefore, conservation and organic agriculture, precision farming, recycling of crop residues, crop diversification in soils and ecosystems, integrated nutrient management and balanced use of agricultural inputs are the proven technologies of sustainable intensification in agriculture. More importantly, among the climate smart agricultural practices, the selection of appropriate measures must be soil or site specific for sustaining resource base for future generations. Further, presentation must be initiated to fine-tune the existing climate-smart agriculture to suit different nutrient management practices.
A critical assessment of organic farming and foodShaheenPraveen1
Organic farming is a challenging type farming because of its initial less production rate but could prove to be a boon if we do proper planning and management.
Main GHGs from agricultural lands are CH4 and N2O
GHG emission can be reduced by 60 % in 2050 through:
Removal of rice straws and through good management practices in paddy fields
Use alternatives to chemical fertilizer
CH4 reduction from livestock by improving feed quality and animal comfort
Reduce N2O emission in soils
Enhance C sequestration in paddy and rainfed uplands through ‘Evergreen Agro-ecosystem’ concept
Carbon stock in agricultural lands can be enhanced by improving land management practices
C sequestration in tea lands can be increased through: Agro-ecosystem approach; Crop diversification; Intercropping; Introduction of shade trees with optimum density; and Rehabilitation of old tea lands
C stock can be increased by 267 % by the year 2050 through Home Garden Intensification
If the proposed mitigation actions are implemented, the country will be able to achieve Net Zero by 2038.

Metas baseadas em ciência na cana-de-açúcar [Plano de Trabalho]Bonsucro1
Neste webinar apresentaremos o plano de trabalho do nosso recém-lançado projeto "Metas baseadas em ciência na cana-de-açúcar", cujo principal objetivo é criar um caminho de mitigação para o setor sucroenergético reduzir as emissões de GEE em linha com a ciência e os objetivos do Acordo de Paris.
A Bonsucro irá liderar o desenvolvimento de uma metodologia e ferramenta compartilhada em todo o setor para monitorar as emissões e remoções de carbono relacionadas à cana-de-açúcar. Isso permitirá que as empresas que operam na cadeia de valor da cana-de-açúcar estabeleçam metas de mitigação baseadas na ciência, abrangendo as emissões de escopo 1 (diretas), escopo 2 (indiretas) e escopo 3 (cadeia de fornecimento) na produção de cana-de-açúcar até a porteira da fazenda.
A execução deste projeto terá início em janeiro de 2023 e este webinar apresentará seu plano de trabalho e formas de envolvimento das organizações.

Science-based targets in sugarcane (Work Plan)Bonsucro1
We present the work plan of our recently launched project entitled "Science-based targets in sugarcane", whose main aim is to create a mitigation pathway for the sugarcane sector to drive down GHG emissions in line with science and the goals of the Paris Agreement.
Bonsucro will lead the development of a shared, sector-wide methodology and tool for monitoring sugarcane-related carbon emissions and removals. This will enable companies that operate within the sugarcane value chain to set science-based mitigation targets covering scope 1 (direct), scope 2 (indirect) and scope 3 (supply chain) emissions in sugarcane production up to the farm gate.
The execution of this project will start in January 2023.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.
