This document provides an overview and assessment of a sustainable agriculture program conducted from 2012-2013 in Cuttack, India. It summarizes the program's activities and outputs, including training over 3,000 farmers in sustainable rice (SRI) and organic farming techniques. Key impacts included increased crop yields of 25-50% using SRI methods and improvements in food security, income, and children's education for participating farmers. The program utilized a staff structure across multiple levels to implement, monitor, and report on activities in 5 blocks and 43 villages. Overall, the program achieved its targets for farmer training and land coverage using sustainable methods. Lessons learned include benefits of lower investment and higher production using SRI, as well as opportunities to

The document outlines various benefits of biocharculture across several domains:
1) In agriculture, biocharculture can increase productivity with low external inputs, create local jobs, and support local enterprises through biochar and related technologies.
2) Socially, biocharculture requires few skills and supports biochar-based practices.
3) Environmentally, biocharculture leads to carbon sequestration, energy security, and helps mitigate and adapt to climate change by lowering carbon emissions.
This document outlines the advantages of using biochar in urban gardens, including growing food to complement diets and have fresh, nutritious food close to homes; economic savings from access to self-grown food; utilizing waste to create biochar compost; carbon sequestration through biochar use; emissions reduction and improved soil fertility; efficient water use and conservation; increased soil microbial density; converting dry waste to biochar using stoves; efficient solid waste management; and using urban gardens as a space for exercise, meetings, and social gatherings.

Biochar urinals use biochar to capture nitrogen from animal and human urine. The biochar absorbs nitrogen which can then be used as fertilizer for plants. These urinals provide an environmentally friendly way to capture nutrients from waste and produce biochar bricks that can be used in green building materials.
1) The document discusses how biochar-producing stoves and biochar culture can achieve common goals like saving trees and money. It promotes Magh series stoves that save 30-40% of wood usage.
2) Biochar culture involves using biochar in applications like agriculture, animal husbandry, energy, water, and rituals. This includes reducing methane from rice paddies and animal waste.
3) The document shows results of biochar increasing crop yields in drought conditions and reducing methane emissions from rice paddies. It promotes collecting animal urine using biochar urinals.
Sisir Sahana's new art exhibition features sculptures depicting relationships between humans and tigers. The sculptures show tigers adorning women or a woman peacefully resting on a tiger, representing the ferocious and peaceful aspects of human nature. Sahana has always been fascinated by Bengal tigers since his time in Kolkata, seeing parallels between tigers' majesty and human qualities. The exhibition, titled "I Have Seen the Tiger", is on display at the Kalakriti Art Gallery until Wednesday.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data WarehouseFederico Razzoli
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.

27. Important Issues / Problems Low productivity lands Majority of them possess small land holdings leading to disguised unemployment. High vulnerability due to small land holdings by most of the villagers. Sanitation is poor, lack of adequate drainage and toilets. Women are enthusiastic, they are ready to do something but unable to decide because of lack of awareness & skills. Girl child labour in cotton farms. Overall wage rates are low and also men are paid more than women. Due to increase in no of borewells for cultivation of water intensive crops, the ground water table is going down. People are good but, Men and women take country liquor in the evenings, some men beat their wives under the influence. Lack of marketing facilities leading to exploitation of moduga leaf plate makers and gum tapers. About 10% of the population is on seasonal migration for work. Forced migration due to non-sustainable traditional occupations. Most of the traditional LHs are no more sustainable such as black smithy, carpentry, pottery, chappal making, barbers and gold smithy. DCBC-APRLP/DPAP-Mahabubnagar
28. Suggestions / recommendations There is need to select this village for livelihoods interventions. This village has potential of Women and youth for initiating activities. Need to involve community in the optimum utilization of groundwater resources. Has potential to form more SHGs with women. Networking with CBOs (SHGs, UGs, occupational groups and labour groups) at village level. Formation of labour and occupational groups for capacitating in new skills and / or upgrading existing skills. Formation of thrift groups with small and marginal farmers Farmers need to be organized for sustainable agricultural practices. Has the potential for Micro-enterprise activities for women groups. Promoting backyard poultry and dairy activities with women groups. Finding ME activities or other LH opportunities for the men commuting to Mahabubnagar to work as Hamalis. Marketing facilities for leaf-plate makers and trainings on value addition. Trainings on Gum karaya collection and grading and facilitating market linkages. Small and marginal Farmers need to be trained on better agricultural practices, like vegetables production, seed production. Need to train RMPs and Barefoot veterinary persons in the village.
