This research was done by 2 treatments which are IBA and NAA (RO = 0 ppm, R1 = 50 ppm, R2 = 100 ppm, R3 = 150 ppm and R4 = 200 ppm) and plant media (M0 = soil, M1 = soil + rice husk, M2 = soil + compost) respectively. The data was analyzed with the variant analysis (ANOVA), and continued by Duncan test (P=0.05). The results showed the awarding IBA and NAA with a concentration of 50, 100, 150 and 200 ppm was able to increase the average percentage live shoot cuttings almost reach 100%, media increasing the percentage of living shoot cuttings.

It is a valuable non-timber forest product used in fragrances and as medicine. Reforestation for Aquilaria trees in combination with artificial agarwood-inducing methods serves as a way to supply agarwood and conserve of wild Aquilaria stock. However, the existing agarwood-inducing methods produce poor-quality agarwood at low yield. Our study evaluated a novel technique for producing agarwood in cultivated Aquilaria trees, called the whole-tree agarwood-inducing technique (Agar-Wit).

  • Problems of Higher Education in Tripura
    Vol. VI, Issue 1 (June 2020) http://www.mzuhssjournal.in/ Problems of Higher Education in Tripura Sanjoy Roy * Abstract The New Education Policy emphasizes that education should be accessible and affordable with thrust on equity and excellence and it may be structured in such a way that 'gross enrolment ratio' should increase and number of 'dropouts' come down effectively. One of the greatest challenges to higher education in India is providing access to the growing segments of the population demanding post- secondary education (meaning raising gross enrolment ratio or GER). On the other hand, quality growth of higher education in India is debatable contradicting the very objective of equity within the social growth of the country. Similarly the quality of higher education in Tripura is at a mismatch stage. The present paper seeks to portray the GER in North eastern region, Government Expenditure on Education in Tripura as wellas the factors inhibiting the quality of higher education in the state. The paper is based on the secondary data collected from various websites of different organizations, reports, discussion paper and publications in various journal and newspapers etc. Keywords : Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER), Quality, Expenditure and Infrastructure. Introduction The purpose of higher education is to pave the way for students to move from known to unknown by the application of knowledge, innovative thinking and creative process. The goal of higher education is to train the mind to undertake a continuous thought relevant to emerging circumstances and offer solutions to the emerging needs. National Commission on Higher Education (1986) translated the vision of Radhakrishnan Commission and Kothari Commission in five main goals for higher education, which include greater access, equal access (or Equity), quality and excellence, relevance and value based education.
