Laboratory experiments were conducted to determine the physicochemical properties of fruits of the aonla (Phyllanthus emblica) cultivars Krishna, Kanchan, Chakaiya, NA-6, NA-7 and NA-10. grown under the agroclimatic conditions of Maharashtra, India. NA-7 recorded the highest values for weight (...
Precipitation is captured using various types of rain gauges, including tipping bucket and weighing gauges, which automatically record the amount of rainfall. Atmospheric pressure is gauged with mercury and aneroid barometers, which measure pressure changes that are indicative of weather conditions. ...

Performance of Local birds under the environmental conditions such as temperature, relative humidity and Temperature Humidity Index (THI) was studied in summer in Konkan region of Maharashtra. 200 birds were equally distributed and reared for thirteen weeks in two blocks. Each blocks was having four...
The Agrani Basin is observed to be the most vulnerable to drought conditions, as it experienced the highest frequency of meteorological droughts. About 60% of stations in the study area reveal decline in monsoon rainfall. However, the stations in the vicinity of Western Ghats exhibit an increase...
