Potato is a herbaceous perennial plant in the family Solanaceae which is grown for its edible tubers. the leaves can reach 10–30 cm (4–12 in) in length and 5–15 cm (2–6 in) wide. The potato plant produces white or blue flowers and yellow-green berries. It is grown as annual plants, surviving only one growing season. It grows best in cooler climates. Potatoes require a deep, fertile, loose, well-draining soil with a pH between 5.8 and 6.5 and will grow optimally at daytime temperatures between 18 and 27°C (65–80°F) and night time temperatures between 12 and 18°C (55–65°F). Potatoes are usually grown from seed potatoes. Each piece of planting material should have at least two eyes. Seed potatoes and pieces can be planted 0–2 weeks after the last frost. All tubers should be harvested when the vines have died. Harvest the tubers by gently digging them up with a fork. Do not wash the tubers prior to storing. Potatoes can also be processed into starch, alcohol or flour.

The ultimate guide for carrot farming 2018Amar Sawant
Carrot is important root crops cultivated throughout the world for its fleshy edible roots. Carrot farming is done in the spring, summer, and autumn in temperate climate countries and during winter in tropical and subtropical regions.
Roots of carrot are used as a vegetable for soups & curries; graded roots are used as a salad, tender roots as pickles also Carrot halwa and jam are famous.
Carrot juice is a rich source of carotene and is sometimes used for colouring buffer and other food articles. Carrot tops are used for extraction of leaf protein, as fodder and also for the poultry feed.
Carrots possess many medicinal properties and are used in Ayurvedic medicine. Carrots are a rich source of b-carotene and contain appreciable amounts of thiamine and riboflavin.
The Carrot crop is the Second most popular vegetable in the world after potato. China ranks first in production followed by Russia.
The major carrot growing states in India are Karnataka, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Andhra Pradesh.

Holding company first came into existence in the US. It was created to overcome the restrictions imposed by the Anti-trust legislation. They were formed because businessmen wanted to have concerns under common control and within the framework of law.
Under the companies Act, 1956, a holding company is any company which holds more than half of the equity share capital of other companies or controls the composition of the board of directors of other companies. Type of business organization that allows a firm (called parent) and its directors to control or influence other firms (called subsidiaries). This arrangement makes venturing outside one's core industry possible and, under certain conditions, to benefit from tax consolidation, sharing of operating losses, and ease of divestiture. The legal definition of a holding company varies with the legal system. Some require holding of a majority (80 percent) or the entire (100 percent) voting shares of the subsidiary whereas other require as little as five percent.

The exact knowledge about the interior on the earth still remains an enigma.
Knowledge of the structure, composition, and the process going on within it would currently help scientists answer questions regarding crustal motion, earth quakes, the volcanic eruptions and the origins of the continents and of the earth itself. As the earth gradually solidified, heavier elements slowly sank towards the centre and lighter elements slowly moved upwards to the surface concentrating in the earth’s crust.
Earth’s interior is arranged roughly in concentric layers, each one distinct either in chemical composition or temperature with heat radiating outward from the centre by conduction and then by physical convection in the more plastic levels nearer the surface.
Magnetic properties of matter are their macroscopic behaviour in a magnetic field under varying conditions ; These are : permeability ,susceptibility, hysteresis retentivity and coercivity. Permeability : Suppose that a long unmagnetised bar of a substance is placed in a uniform magnetic field of induction B0. Before the specimen is introduced into the field it is represented by a set of parallel lines known as lines of inducton.
Map projection is a systematic drawing of parallel of latitudes and meridians of longitude on a plane surface for the whole earth or a part of it on a certain scale so that any point on the earth surface may correspond to that on the drawing.
Maps cannot be created without map projections. All map projections necessarily distort the surface in some fashion.
Depending on the purpose of the map, some distortions are acceptable and others are not; therefore, different map projections exist in order to preserve some properties of the sphere-like body at the expense of other properties.
There is no limit to the number of possible map projections.
Projectile is any object thrown into the space upon which the only acting force is gravity. The motion of a projectile is said to be projectile motion. When we throw a ball into the air (not vertically upwards), it describes a curved path. This curved path is called trajectory.

Taxus baccata commonly known as ‘Yew’, is an evergreen tree attaining a height of 9-20 metres with a massive trunk. Taxus is usually dioecious, but occasionally monoecious trees are also reported.
The reproductive structures become prominent on the plant in February-March. The male and female plants do not show any distinction in their vegetative organization. The differentiation between them can be made only when the plants are in the flowering or fruiting stage. Vegetative reproduction in Taxus is not known.
Bacteria are the simplest, the smallest, and the most successful microorganisms.
They were first discovered by Anton Leeuwenhoek (1676).
In the five kingdom classification, they are placed in Kingdom Monera. Reproduction: Vegetative Reproduction, Sexual Reproduction & Asexual Reproduction.
The genus Coleochaete is represented by about 10 species, out of which 3 species are found in India. They grow in fresh water either as epiphytes on different angiosperms. They show much variation in their heterotrichous nature. Due to well-developed prostrate system, it forms discoid thailus and looks like
pseudo- parenchyma of one cell in thickness.
Archaebacteria are the oldest organisms living on the Earth. They are
unicellular prokaryotes and belong to the kingdom, Archaea. They were first
discovered in 1977 and classified as bacteria. Most archaebacteria appear like
bacteria, when observed under the microscope. However, they are quite
different from bacteria and eukaryotic organisms.
Archaebacteria are found in very harsh conditions such as in the volcanic vents
or at the bottom of the sea. They can easily survive in such extreme
environment as sea vents releasing sulfide-rich gases, hot springs, or boiling
mud around volcanoes.
A mutation is a change that occurs in our DNA sequence, either due to mistakes when DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light. The DNA sequence of a gene can be altered in a number of ways. Gene mutations have varying effects on health, depending on where they occur and whether they alter the function of essential proteins. Mutations are two types that are Gene mutation and Chromosome mutation. Gene mutation are further divided into Point and frameshift mutation. Point mutation are three types ie. Silent mutation, Missense mutation and Nonsense mutation. Frameshift mutation are of two types that are addition and deletion. Chromosome mutations are further classified into Deletion, duplication, inversion and translocation.
Ginkgo is known as a Living Fossil.Anatomy of Ginkgo clearly shows primary and secondary structures. sex in Ginkgo is determined by sex chromosomes (XY in male and XX in female). Reproductive bodies of Ginkgo are most primitive among living seed plants except some Cycadales. Ginkgos are dioecious, with separate sexes, some trees being female and others being male. Male plants produce small pollen cones with sporophylls, each bearing two microsporangia spirally arranged around a central axis. Female plants do not produce cones. Two ovules are formed at the end of a stalk, and after pollination, one or both develop into seeds. The fertilization of ginkgo seeds occurs via motile sperm, as in cycads, ferns, mosses and algae.
Chlamydomonas is unicellular, motile green algae. In this presentation the systematic position, occurrence, structure and different types of reproduction is being explained. palmella stage in vegetative reproduction is one of the outstanding character found among the other algae.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

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.

1. Potato
Sr. Kaslin Juliat SAL
Assistant Professor
St. Xavier’s College,
Mahuadanr,
Nilamber Pitamber University
2. Morphology
Potato, Solanum tuberosum, is an herbaceous perennial
plant in the family Solanaceae which is grown for its
edible tubers.
The potato plant has a branched stem and alternately
arranged leaves consisting of leaflets which are both of
unequal size and shape.
The leaflets can be oval to oblong in shape and the
leaves can reach 10–30 cm (4–12 in) in length and 5–15
cm (2–6 in) wide.
The potato plant produces white or blue flowers and
yellow-green berries.
3. Morphology
The potato tubers grow underground and generally
located in the top 25 cm (10 in) of the soil.
The tubers can range in color from yellow to red or
purple depending on the variety.
Potato plants can reach in excess of 1 m (3.3 ft) in height
and are grown as annual plants, surviving only one
growing season.
Potato may also be referred to as, spud, Irish potato,
white potato or Spanish potato and originates from South
America
6. Requirements
Potatoes are cool season crops which grow best in cooler
climates or as a winter crop in areas with warm summers.
They are sensitive to heat but can tolerate a light frost.
Potatoes require a deep, fertile, loose, well-draining soil
with a pH between 5.8 and 6.5 and will grow optimally at
daytime temperatures between 18 and 27°C (65–80°F)
and night time temperatures between 12 and 18°C (55–
65°F).
Plants can also be successfully grown outdoors in burlap
bags or large containers.
Propagation
7. Potatoes are usually grown from seed potatoes. Small sections
of a large tuber known as “seed pieces” or small seed potatoes
can be used.
Each piece of planting material should have at least two eyes.
The eyes are the area from which a shoot will sprout and after
cutting should be allowed to cure for a few days prior to
planting in the soil.
Curing helps to protect the seed pieces from rotting and protect
from pathogen invading.
Curing is achieved by laying out the seed pieces on paper
towels and allowing to dry out for 3 to 4 days.
Seed pieces
8. Seed potatoes and pieces can be planted 0–2 weeks after the
last frost or as soon as the soil is workable in early Spring.
Prepare soil for planting by working in compost or well-rotted
manure.
Potatoes are commonly grown in hilled rows. This involves
digging shallow trenches 60–90 cm (2–3 ft) apart after the
addition of the compost or manure.
Space the seed pieces 30 cm (12 in) apart and cover with 7.5
cm (3 in) of soil.
Planting
9. When the plants reach approximately 25 cm (10 in) in height
mound the soil up around the stems of the plants so that they are
covered up to about half of their height.
This protects shallow tubers from turning green from exposure
to sunlight.
Allow the plants to grow another 25 cm (10 in) and again mound
the soil. Continue this process for the duration of the crops
growth.
Straw can be used around the plants instead of soil which
eliminates the need to dig for the tubers but care must be taken
to add fresh the straw regularly as it will break down over time.
Planting
10. Potatoes are sensitive to soil moisture and grow best
when soil moisture is consistent.
The plants generally require about 1 inch of water a
week from rainfall or irrigation.
Water-saturated soil should be avoided as it can poorly
formed tubers and rot.
In addition, potatoes are heavy feeders and the addition
of a balanced fertilizer every two weeks can help
increase tuber yields.
General care
11. The time potato tubers take to reach maturity is variable
and depends on the variety being grown, although it is
usually about 2–3 weeks after the plants have bloomed.
All tubers should be harvested when the vines have died
or before a frost which will kill the plants.
Harvest the tubers by gently digging them up with a fork
or with your hands if the soil is loose enough.
Harvesting is easier when the soil is dry.
Do not wash the tubers prior to storing.
Harvesting
12. Potato tubers are a staple food source in temperate
regions and are eaten after cooking.
They may be cut or sliced and made into potato chips
or fries.
Potatoes can also be processed into starch, alcohol or
flour.
