This document discusses soilless agriculture or hydroponics, which involves growing plants without soil by using mineral nutrient solutions in an aqueous solvent. It outlines the reasons for using hydroponics like overcoming poor soil conditions and maximizing yield. The main types of soilless culture described are solution culture, aeroponics, and solid media culture. Advantages include year-round production and lower disease risk, while disadvantages include higher initial and operational costs and technical expertise required. Lettuce is highlighted as a suitable hydroponic crop, with example nutrient solutions and water quality guidelines provided. Yield from hydroponic lettuce is reported to be over 10 times that of conventional soil-based systems.
The Soilless type of agriculture is disscussed in detail with its different types i.e. Hydroponics and Aeroponics. The different growing mediums required for hydroponics. The comparison between two is also done along with their own advantages and disadvantages.
Soil-less cultivation is a new advanced method for improving cultivation of different vegetable crops. It is a method of growing vegetables without the using soil as a rooting medium, in which the inorganic nutrients absorbed by the roots are supplied through irrigation water. It includes hydroponics, aeroponics and aquaponics. Hydroponics is the growing of vegetables in a fed with a solution containing a mixture of macro and micro-nutrients. Aquaponics is the technique in which, aquatic animals such as snails, fish, crayfish, prawns, etc., are grown in tanks with combination of hydroponics with vegetables are grown in water in a symbiotic environment. In aeroponics system, sealed root chamber is used as reservoir for nutrient solution where the plants above the reservoir cover with polystyrene/other material. It must be supported or hanged through holes in the expanded cover and are misted with nutrient solution to keep it always moist. Soil- less cultivation has been followed in number of vegetables such as, tomato, chilli, brinjal, green bean, bell pepper, cauliflower, cucumber, melons, radish, onion, lettuce, beet, winged beans, water spinach, spinach, coriander, and so on. Soil-less cultivation helps in early nursery raising and easy management, production of healthy vegetable seedlings free from disease, insects and pest. It has various benefits like; year-round production and off season, higher productivity and uniform quality, management of insect-pests, diseases and weeds is easier which helps in more efficient and less use of resources. Soilless culture is rapidly gaining its popularity and get accepted in many countries, especially in commercial vegetable production. Soilless culture could well dominate food production in the future As population increases and cultivable land declines due to poor land management, so people turn towards new technologies like soilless culture. In order to popularize soilless culture, it is very important to provide scientifically proven results for awareness and massive production of vegetable through soilless farming system and with this advanced technologies and techniques involved in soilless vegetable cultivation can be said as next-generation crop science hence, it can open a doorway to establish a new civilization in outer space.

Agriculture out of the soil is to use any means that will cultivate and plant development without entering the soil as a mediator for agriculture, where cultivated plants in isolation from the soil as long as the system used allows to strengthen the plants and provide water needed for growth and nutrients as it is the system followed for growing plants in the natural soil environment with irrigated nutrients intravenously instead of plain water and may be used a solid material such as gravel, sand, peatmoss, perlite and vermiculite in some cases as supporting mediators. Agriculture outside of soil is including hydro agriculture (Hydroponics), aqua agriculture (Aquaponics), aerobic agriculture (Aeroponics) as well as agriculture using supportive mediators. Benefits of soilless cultures include the reservation of cultivated lands for main crops; save not less than 90% of irrigated water; use nearly recycled fixed amount of water; most vegetable crops succeed and give the highest productivity in soilless agriculture than the ordinary agriculture; It can be run in various places such as balconies, roofs of buildings, various greenhouses and lands unsuitable for cultivation; the provision of fertilizer materials, where it’s used rationed amounts calculated accurately nutrients according to the plant requirements; Ease of dealing with plants and ease of conducting the required protection operations against various pests.

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.
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. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance. This guide will provide detailed notes on the Sectors of the Indian Economy Class 10, using specific long-tail keywords to enhance comprehension.
