Nabadeep Saikia & Himadri Rabha Abstract: Modern civilization is facing an unprecedented solid waste crisis. From overflowing landfills to floating islands of plastic, the global waste problem threatens ecosystems, human health and sustainability. Amid these challenges, nature offers a humble yet powerfulally insects. Often overlooked as pests, insects are actually Read more
Nabadeep Saikia Abstract: The excessive use of chemical pesticides in modern agriculture has led to multiple challenges, including resistance development, resurgence of secondary pests and ecological imbalance. In this context, pheromone traps have emerged as one of the most promising tools for eco-friendly and species-specific pest management. Pheromones, the natural Read more
Pranita Das Abstract: Zoonotic diseases, transmitted between animals and humans, represent a major global health threat due to their capacity for rapid emergence and cross-species transmission. The intensification of livestock production, expanding human–animal interfaces and environmental disturbances have collectively increased the risk of zoonotic spillovers. Livestock play a pivotal role Read more
Pallavi Deka Abstract: Across the rural landscapes of India and other developing regions, women sustain the rhythm of agriculture. They plant, harvest, manage livestock and preserve food systems, yet their contributions are often unseen and undervalued. Mechanization offers a powerful pathway to ease their drudgery, enhance efficiency and promote gender Read more
Pranita Das Abstract: Protein is a vital nutrient in animal diets as it supports growth, reproduction and overall productivity. Traditionally, soybean meal and fish meal have been the dominant protein sources used in livestock and aquaculture feed formulations. However, increasing global demand, fluctuating prices, environmental concerns and competition between human Read more
Himadri Rabha & Nabadeep Saikia Abstract: Biointensive Pest Management (BIPM) has emerged as a sustainable and ecologically grounded alternative to chemical-based pest control in modern agriculture. It focuses on preventing pest outbreaks by strengthening the natural balance of agroecosystems through cultural, biological and mechanical methods. Rather than eradicating pests, BIPM Read more
Ratul Nath Abstract: Quantum Computing (QC) represents a paradigm shift from classical computing by leveraging the principles of quantum mechanics superposition, entanglement and tunneling. Unlike conventional bits that exist in binary states (0 or 1), qubits exist in multiple states simultaneously, enabling exponential computational advantages for specific problem classes. The Read more
Pranita Das Abstract: Rising global temperatures and frequent heat waves are changing the way dairy cattle function and perform. Cows are particularly vulnerable to heat stress because of their high metabolic demands for milk production and their limited ability to dissipate heat. When animals are exposed to high temperature and Read more
Dipankar Hazarika, Pradip Rajbongshi Abstract: Farmers around the world face the challenge of producing enough food while protecting the environment and securing their livelihoods. Integrated farming systems, which bring together crops, livestock, fish and horticulture, offer a way to meet these challenges in a balanced and efficient manner. Livestock often Read more
Obeth Darngawn Abstract: Fish in India hold significance beyond their role as food. They are deeply embedded in stories, rituals, festivals and family traditions that reflect the close relationship between people and rivers. Indigenous species such as the shimmering Hilsa (Tenualosa ilisha), the majestic golden mahseer (Tor putitora) and numerous Read more
