Potato farming has a long history in eastern North Carolina. Originally, farmers and laborers planted, harvested, graded, and transported potatoes through intensive manual labor. Over time, mechanization increased efficiency by using machines to cut and plant seed potatoes, dig crops out of the ground, and grade potatoes by size. Today, most potatoes are processed into frozen and snack foods rather than shipped fresh, though potatoes remain an important commodity and dietary staple.
Hybrid seed production and two line production (1)Shweta Tiwari
The objective of any hybridization system is to enforce cross-pollination between inbred lines. Most crop plants are hermaphroditic, that is, possess male and female organs on the same flower, and, therefore, undergo some degree of self-pollination during flowering. To make hybrids, you must eliminate self-pollination on the female parent line and force pollination by the selected male parent. One way to do this is to make the female line male-sterile, which can be accomplished mechanically or genetically.

Rice based cropping system is a major cropping system practiced in India, which include the rotation of crops involving rice, pulses, oil seeds, cotton, sugarcane, green manures, vegetables, etc. Various rice based cropping systems have been reported from different parts of India ranging from rice-rice-rice to rice followed by different cereals, pulses, oil seeds, vegetables and fibre crops. Rice based cropping systems may include lowland and upland crops.
Cropping pattern used on a farm and their interactions with farm reservoir, other farm enterprises, available technology and environment. The objective of this cropping system is to utilize all resources efficiently, maintain stability in production and obtaining higher net returns. The cropping system maintains and enhance soil fertility, also minimize disease spread, weed growth and pest infestation and enhances the crop growth. So the crops with suitable qualities should be selected and grown in the cropping system. There are many types of cropping system, among these the rice based cropping system is a major one which include the rotation of crops involving rice, pulses, oilseeds, cotton, sugarcane, green manure etc.. Our Tamil Nadu have seven different zones, based on the soil type, climate and environment, different cropping systems are followed in different zone. Among these Rice based cropping systems, Rice - Pulses is mostly followed. There are also some constraints like shortage of labour, yield stagnation, water scarcity and increased cost of cultivation in following this cropping system but we must overcome those constraints and follow the cropping system and give better improvement to agriculture.

CHAPTER 12 Cotton is King The Antebellum South, 1800–1860 Figure .docxbartholomeocoombs
CHAPTER 12 Cotton is King: The Antebellum South, 1800–1860 Figure 12.1 Bateaux à Vapeur Géant, la Nouvelle-Orléans 1853 (Giant Steamboats at New Orleans, 1853), by Hippolyte Sebron, shows how New Orleans, at the mouth of the Mississippi River, was the primary trading hub for the cotton that fueled the growth of the southern economy. Chapter Outline 12.1 The Economics of Cotton 12.2 African Americans in the Antebellum United States 12.3 Wealth and Culture in the South 12.4 The Filibuster and the Quest for New Slave States Introduction Nine new slave states entered the Union between 1789 and 1860, rapidly expanding and transforming the South into a region of economic growth built on slave labor. In the image above (Figure 12.1), innumerable slaves load cargo onto a steamship in the Port of New Orleans, the commercial center of the antebellum South, while two well-dressed white men stand by talking. Commercial activity extends as far as the eye can see. By the mid-nineteenth century, southern commercial centers like New Orleans had become home to the greatest concentration of wealth in the United States. While most white southerners did not own slaves, they aspired to join the ranks of elite slaveholders, who played a key role in the politics of both the South and the nation. Meanwhile, slavery shaped the culture and society of the South, which rested on a racial ideology of white supremacy and a vision of the United States as a white man’s republic. Slaves endured the traumas of slavery by creating their own culture and using the Christian message of redemption to find hope for a world of freedom without violence. Chapter 12 Cotton is King: The Antebellum South, 1800–1860 335 12.1 The Economics of Cotton By the end of this section, you will be able to: • Explain the labor-intensive processes of cotton production • Describe the importance of cotton to the Atlantic and American antebellum economy In the antebellum era—that is, in the years before the Civil War—American planters in the South continued to grow Chesapeake tobacco and Carolina rice as they had in the colonial era. Cotton, however, emerged as the antebellum South’s major commercial crop, eclipsing tobacco, rice, and sugar in economic importance. By 1860, the region was producing two-thirds of the world’s cotton. In 1793, Eli Whitney revolutionized the production of cotton when he invented the cotton gin, a device that separated the seeds from raw cotton. Suddenly, a process that was extraordinarily labor-intensive when done by hand could be completed quickly and easily. American plantation owners, who were searching for a successful staple crop to compete on the world market, found it in cotton. As a commodity, cotton had the advantage of being easily stored and transported. A demand for it already existed in the industrial textile mills in Great Britain, and in time, a steady stream of slave-grown American cotton would also supply northern textile mills.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
5. Potato farming progressed dramatically through the years. In the early days, family members and workers would cut potatoes, making sure they had an eye in each cut. They would fill bags with these seed potatoes and put them around their waist making it easier to take one out and plant it.
6. This highly intensive labor method was replaced by a horse-drawn potato planter with two pie shaped bins which dropped seed potatoes in the row. What progress!
7. Today, a computerized potato cutter automatically cuts seed potatoes in 0,2, 3, 4, or 6 pieces depending on the size of the potato.

11. Clifton “Moe” Moore, of Griggs Lumber & Produce in Currituck County, cites his father-in-law, Grady Griggs, reminiscing that before the mechanical grader was used in the 1920‘s and 30‘s, potatoes were hand graded in the field. Farmers judged for themselves the size they knew buyers wanted. Laborers tossed potatoes from 11/2 “ to 2” into barrels made locally in Currituck and surrounding counties.

18. Also during those years, spuds were loaded on trucks in the field and shipped out on rail. After the war in the late 40’s and early 50s trucks, not trains, carried most of the produce to markets. Belcross, NC 1940
19. As with digging, grading became more efficient as well. Mr. James Ferebee’s father, Scott Ferebee, bought a Boggs grader that turned with a crank. It was set in a boxcar filling bags of graded potatoes which didn‘t have to be moved until the train pulled into its final destination. Belcross, NC 1940

31. . Now growers no longer sell direct but go through a small number of produce brokers who buy orders of potatoes for the chain stores and other clients. Although supply and demand play a major role in the price of potatoes, today the farmer negotiates his price with a broker or perhaps a chip or dehy manufacturer and signs a contract for a certain number of loads of potatoes.

35. However, in 1996, consumption rose to 140 pounds per person as consumer demand for frozen potatoes and potato chips increased. Spuds make their claim as a major commodity in the snack food industry. Another claim to fame is that in 1995, the potato became the first vegetable grown in space.

37. A potato provides 40% of our daily vitamin C requirements. It contains more potassium than a banana. It boasts having no fat or cholesterol. And if you leave the peel on, it provides even more fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
38. From production to consumption, the potato industry has changed drastically through the years. No matter how you eat them, they are still the staple of American and European diets.
