Mushroom cultivation is an emerging agri-business venture that requires technical knowledge at various steps of its cultivation. At every stage of a capacity development intervention in mushroom production, assessing the knowledge of participating growers is essential. An attempt has been made to develop and standardize a knowledge test on mushroom...

Strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) is an important table fruit of millions of people around the world for its nutrient content and pleasant flavour. The fruits are rich in ascorbic acid, secondary metabolites and simple sugars. It is grown extensively under temperate, sub-tropical and tropical climate throughout the year. During the cultivation...

Citrus is the third largest fruit sub-sector economy in the country after mango and banana. In Meghalaya, Khasi Mandarin is one of the key commercial citrus fruit crops that has started establishing its presence in domestic as well as foreign markets, and has been a profitable venture to the growers. The study was taken up in two selected districts...

Rice is an important cereal crop of India. In Meghalaya state of NE India, significant increase in the production of rice was observed in recent years, however, the production is still much below the demand of the state and productivity below the national average. The COVID 19 pandemic and the resultant lockdown significantly affected the rice farm...

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced educational institutes in India including Agricultural Universities to adopt online remote teaching. This sudden shift to online-teaching are was a big challenge. For the North East Region of India (NER), already constrained in terms of ICT infrastructure and higher education, the challenges were relatively bigger....

The increasing population in India in the recent years has made very difficult to meet the food supply in our country. By looking into the perspective of agriculture, plant disease diagnosis is crucial because diseases affect the yield of the crop in a drastic manner thus reducing the income of the farmers. However, traditional approaches to diagno...

Quantum computing has been projected as an alternative to classical computing and promises to offer feasible solutions to problems that are considered intractable today. It has also been observed that information storage, processing, and communication can be improved to a great extent by the use of quantum mechanical effects like non-classical corr...

Mercy Nesa Rani, P.The main motivation to use ternary logic systems is that the amount of information per circuit line is higher as compared to the corresponding binary logic representation, thereby leading to more compact circuit realizations. This is particularly attractive for quantum computing as qutrits are expensive resources and minimizing t...

One of the important threats to food security is agricultural crop diseases wherein, quick diagnosis of plant diseases becomes difficult in most of the countries in the world due to non-availability of domain experts at all times. Very recently, penetration of mobile phones and advancement in computer technologies has made the diagnosis plant disea...

The main motivation to use ternary logic systems is that the amount of information per circuit line is higher as compared to the corresponding binary logic representation, thereby leading to more compact circuit realizations. This is particularly attractive for quantum computing as qutrits are expensive resources and minimizing their number is one...

Abstract—One of the main motivations for using ternary logic systems is the amount of information per circuit line is higher as compared to the corresponding binary logic representation, thereby leading to more compact circuit realizations. This is particularly attractive for quantum computing as qutrits are expensive resources and minimizing their...

Quantum computation relies on exploiting quantum mechanical phenomena, and has received significant attention in recent years. Higher-dimensional quantum systems increase the density of encoded information per computing element (e.g., qutrit for three-level system), resulting in less resource overhead. For instance, 63% reduction in the number of q...

Livelihood from pineapple production

Quantum computation which relies on exploiting quantum mechanical phenomena, has received significant attention in recent years. Higher dimensional quantum systems increase the density of encoded information per computing element (e.g. qutrit for the 3-level system), resulting in less resource overhead. Recently, there have been several works in th...

Ternary reversible logic synthesis has started gaining the attention of researchers in recent years because of its distinct advantages over binary reversible logic synthesis. However, the existing methods for the synthesis of ternary reversible logic circuits are applicable only to smaller benchmarks. The present paper proposes an efficient synthes...

Irrigating the crop is one of the greatest challenges in agriculture. This irrigation process consumes significant amount of time, when a farmer has to irrigate multiple agriculture fields across different geographical areas. Therefore, we propose a model for the smart automated irrigation system. Initially, the environmental data such as soil mois...

In India, various studies observed an increasing trend in temperature. Climatologists expect the number of rainfall days to decrease with significant regional variation. In the NorthEastern region, the number of rainy days is likely to decrease by 1-10 days. The hill agriculture is highly vulnerableto the changes in climatic parameters. Hence, the...

In conventional binary reversible circuit synthesis, reversible gates are decomposed into quantum gates using some standard quantum gate library. In recent years there has been increased attention in synthesis using ternary reversible gates since it leads to a reduction in the number of lines. However, very few works exist that address the problem...

Ternary logic has some distinct advantage over binary logic. In this paper we propose a synthesis approach for ternary reversible circuits using ternary reversible gates. Our method takes a boolean function as input. The input is provided as .pla file. The .pla file is first converted into ternary logic function, which can be represented as permuta...

The present study was undertaken to study the trends of area, production and productivity of pineapple in Manipur. The study was based on the secondary data from 2001 to 2011. To analyze the trend of area, production and productivity of pineapple in Manipur, semi log linear functional form was used. Beside these, compound growth rate and instabilit...

We aim to develop an expert system (ES) to the farmers in Meghalaya state for managing rice diseases. The rice diseases prevailing in this area were identified and confirmed after discussion with the domain experts and interacting with the farmers through structured interview schedule. The diagnosed rice diseases were Blast (Pyricularia grisea), Br...

Corner detection is a challenging and important research area in computer vision and object recognition systems. However, they have some problems such as sensitive to noise, poor localization. The corner detector -Feature Accelerated Segment Test (FAST) which will be a good locator of corners in foveated images similar to Human Visual Fixations. Th...

The expert system developed by various experts clearly indicate that different software’s were used to develop computer based expert system for different applications. There are two ways of building expert system: one is to develop from scratch i.e. to code the expert system as a normal computer programme for each domain using programming languages...

This study attempts to provide fast indexing technique which will help to retrieve images from the database quickly and focuses on how to retrieve most relevant images from the database. The need for efficient Content-based Image Retrieval (CBIR) has increased tremendously in many application areas such as biomedicine, military, commerce, education...

Now-a-days, expert system is widely used in agriculture exclusively for diagnosing and managing pests. These pest problems are mainly dependent upon human experts for their diagnosis and getting recovery. The involved human experts are very scarce, inconsis tent in their day-to-day decisions, unable to comprehend large amounts of da ta quickly, una...
