INTRODUCTION: The increasing global population and subsequent rise in food demand have led to a parallel surge in food production, which unfortunately results in substantial amounts of waste, particularly from fruits and vegetables. These wastes, including peels, seeds, stems, and pomace, are often discarded at various stages of the supply chain—during harvesting, processing, and consumption …
INTRODUCTION The exploration of Lagrangian points, regions of gravitational stability, has garnered significant interest due to their potential for space observation, resource harvesting and strategic positioning. These points, particularly those involving Earth, the Moon, Mars and Mar’s moons (Phobos and Deimos), pose unique challenges owing to extreme environmental conditions, microgravity and high radiation levels. Spacerobo, …

Ticks which are temporary, obligate and external vermin of backboned …
INTRODUCTION As humanity sets its sights on expanding beyond Earth, the demand for sustainable, reliable and efficient energy systems becomes increasingly critical. Solar energy, with its abundance in space and compatibility with emerging technologies, stands as the most promising solution. The energy needs of space colonization are immense and solar power provides an ideal, renewable …
1. Introduction Agriculture is the largest consumer of freshwater worldwide, accounting for nearly 70 percent of total withdrawals (FAO, 2022). Traditional irrigation and blanket fertilizer application often lead to water loss, nutrient leaching, and greenhouse-gas emissions. As the pressure on natural resources intensifies, integrated precision technologies offer a sustainable alternative. Drip irrigation delivers water directly …
