LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Potato.pptx Detail cultivation practices of potato
1. Potato
Botanical Name :- Solanum tuberosum L
Family – Solanaceae
Local Name-Batata. Alu
Origin :-South America
Economic Importance:-
-Potato is the most important food crop in the world.
-Potatoes are rich source of starch, vitamins, minerals.
especially( vit. C & vit. B ) .
-They possess 20.6% CHO (Carbohydrates), 2.1% Protein, 0.3% Fat,
1.1% crude fiber and 0.9% ash.
-Used for several industrial purposes such as starch & alcohol

-Ridges are opened at a distance of 45-60cm & tubers are planted opposite on
these ridges at a distance of 30 cm.
-The planting is done with the help of khurpi.
-Flat bed planting:-
-Most common in areas having light sandy soils.
-Planting of tubers is done on flat surface in very shallow furrows & planking
is done.
8. Nutrient Management:
FYM – 40-50 CL/ha (20-25 tones/ha)
RDF :-100:60:120 N:P:K: (Kg/ha)
Micro nutrients
-ZN-Zn deficiency – ‘little leaf’ appears on young developing leaves,
yellowing of foliage.
Fe-Yellowing of leaves near the growing point of the plant.
Mn- slight cupping of younger leaves, blackening of leaf
Cu-Light green colour of young immature leaf blades.
B-Formation of bushy plant with droopy leaves.
Mo- Chlorosis
9. Water Management:-
-Total water requirement - 50-60 cm ha.
-Total no of irrigation- 8-10.
1st – immediately after planting.
2nd – 1 week after planting.
-Subsequent irrigation may be given at an interval of 6-8 days.
-The irrigation water should not be salty as potato can not tolerate
saline.
-Most critical growth Stages for irrigations are
-Germination (10-12 DAP)
-Tuber initiation (30-35 DAP)
-Tuber bulking (55-60 DAP)
10. Earthing up:-
-Potato tubers are modified underground stems.
-which synthesizes solanin, if exposed to sunlight.
-It is essential to cover the tubers with soil because with chlorophyll
formation, the tubers stop accumulating starch & remain smaller & the
Solanin formation in green tubers results into bitter taste of tubers
which is harmful if consumed.
-While earthing up it is essential to loosen the soil around the plants,
then fertilizer, for top dressing is mixed with soil after which ridges are
prepared.
-At this the roots are disturbed and partly damaged, therefore it is
essential to provide one very light irrigation.
11. Weed Management:-
-1st Two weeding - 15-20 DAP
-2nd weeding cum hoeing at the time of earthing up about 30- 35 DAP.
Alachlor ( Lasso ) 50 % EC @ 2 –2.5 Kg a.i./ha as a Pre-emergence
spray.
Crop rotation and mixed cropping:-
- Maize/paddy/soybean – potato
-Cowpea – potato – Wheat
-Maize - potato – Wheat
-Maize – Potato – Potato
12. Harvesting:-
-There should be optimum moisture in the soil at the time of harvest.
-care should be taken to avoid mechanical damages like skinning,
brushing, etc.
-Crop should be harvested when haulms start yellowing & falling on
the ground.
-At this stage haulms should be removed at ground level.
-The crop should be harvested about 15 days after cutting the haulms.
-Digging is done with kudali or by ploughing the field with wooden
plough or by use of potato digger.
- Collecte Exposed tubers.
Yield:- 25 -30 tonnes/ha.
