    Mapping Exercise on Water- Logging in South West of Bangladesh

    MAPPING EXERCISE ON WATER- LOGGING IN SOUTH WEST OF BANGLADESH DRAFT FOR CONSULTATION FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS March 2015 I Preface This report presents the results of a study conducted in 2014 into the factors leading to water logging in the South West region of Bangladesh. It is intended to assist the relevant institutions of the Government of Bangladesh address the underlying causes of water logging. Ultimately, this will be for the benefit of local communities, and of local institutions, and will improve their resilience to the threat of recurring and/or long-lasting flooding. The study is intended not as an end point, but as a starting point for dialogue between the various stakeholders both within and outside government. Following release of this draft report, a number of consultations will be held organized both in Dhaka and in the South West by the study team, to help establish some form of consensus on possible ways forward, and get agreement on the actions needed, the resources required and who should be involved. The work was carried out by FAO as co-chair of the Bangladesh Food Security Cluster, and is also a contribution towards the Government’s Master Plan for the Agricultural development of the Southern Region of the country. This preliminary work was funded by DfID, in association with activities conducted by World Food Programme following the water logging which took place in Satkhira, Khulna and Jessore during late 2013.

    The Case of Bangladesh D National Se

    Globalization, Local Crimes and National Security: The Case of Bangladesh Submitted by: Md. Ruhul Amin Sarkar Session: 149/2014-2015 Department: International Relations University of Dhaka. P a g e | 1 Abstract Globalization has become one of the most significant phenomena in the world since the end of the cold war. Globalization especially the economic globalization has brought about new opportunities and opened dynamic windows for the people of the world based on the notion of liberalism, free market, easy access of goods and services. Although globalization has brought about some positive gains for individuals and society, it has caused negative impacts on the society called ‘the dark side of globalization’. It has created complex and multifaceted security problems and threats to the countries especially the developing countries like Bangladesh. Globalization has changed the nature and dynamics of crime although crime is not a new phenomenon in Bangladesh. The nature or pattern of crime has changed remarkably with the advent of globalization, modern technology and various modern devices, which pose serious security threats to the individuals, society and the country. Globalization has created easy access to conducting illegal trade such as small arms, illegal drugs and human trafficking and some violent activities such as kidnapping, theft, murder, around the world as well as in Bangladesh. It has developed the new trends of crimes, gun violence, drugs crime, and increasing number of juvenile convicts and heinous crimes committed in Bangladesh. Over the years, the number of organized murder crimes is increasing along with rape cases and pretty nature of crimes with the advent of globalization and information technology.

    Original Research Article Water-logging in the South-Western Coastal Region of Bangladesh: Causes and Consequences ABSTRACT Aim: To assess the causes and consequences of water-logging in the south-western coastal region of Bangladesh. Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted in the Department of Crop Botany, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh. Methodology: Qualitative and quantitative techniques to analyze both primary and secondary sources of data available from the various waterlogged areas of Jessore, Satkhira and Khulna districts have been applied. Comment [H1]: Grammatically faulty. Results: Riverbed siltation is leading to prolonged water-logging in some parts of south-west coastal Not well captured. region of Bangladesh in recent two to three decades. Inadequate runoff is the main source of the problem caused by the polders constructed under the Coastal Embankment Project during the sixties. Other human interventions to river flow and improper management of polder hydrology are also responsible for siltation of riverbed that disrupted the normal course of the rivers. The consequent Comment [H2]: Causes of water- losses in agricultural production due to the inundation of more than hundred thousand hectare crop logging not properly determined. land were noticed in Jessore, Satkhira and Khulna districts that directly affect the life and livelihood of about one million people. Water logging destroyed settlements, houses, latrines and source of safe drinking water, disrupted communication and the rhythm of daily life, killed-off fruit trees and reduced the number of domestic animals. People especially women and children, have contracted various waterborne diseases, as they are forced to use congested pollutes water.

    Contributions of Agroforestry Practice Towards Reducing Poverty at Keshabpur Upazila of Jessore District – a Case Study

    J. Environ. Sci. & Natural Resources, 5(2): 267 - 274 , 2012 ISSN 1999-7361 Contributions of Agroforestry Practice Towards Reducing Poverty at Keshabpur Upazila of Jessore District – A Case Study M. W. Islam, M. M. Islam and M. N. Sadath Forestry and Wood Technology Discipline, Khulna University, Khulna 9208, Bangladesh Abstract The systematic agroforestry practice is being popular day by day in Jessore district of Bangladesh. Considering the situation, the present study aims to know the farmers’ attitude and perception about agroforestry practice and to find out the potentialities of agroforestry to reduce poverty at the study area viz., Keshabpur upazila of Jessore district. Mixed method by using semi- structured questionnaires was followed in the field survey. The results illustrated that the respondents preferred agricultural practice (average 58.45% of their total lands) as their major land use followed by homestead and agroforestry land uses (31.75%). Agroforestry was getting popularity as well as socially and ecologically acceptable at this area due to the diversified outcomes of this practice. The small land holders (possession >1 acre) were the most interested among the respondents to practice agroforestry. The less poor agroforestry farmers’ change of income was also higher than the poor farmers. The increased production and income facilitated the villagers to reduce their poverty to some extent and thus they had better access to their daily necessities which helped them to attain a minimal standard of living. Key words: Agricultural crops, Households, Income, Land use, Perennial crops, Perception Introduction (upper line) (Anon, 2010). As the population of this area is increasing day by day so agroforestry can be Bangladesh has 2.46 million ha of forestland covering an important land use system to meet the demand of about 17% of the country’s area.

Data were collected fortnightly from two sampling points, one point was 1 km far from another of Pakuria village of Bharso Union, using four fishing gears namely berjal, moijal, fashjal and kholson. A total of 3987 individuals comprising of 28 fish species belonging to 8 orders, 16 families including 2 exotic species (Cyprinus carpio var. communis) and Oreochromis niloticus (niloticus) were found. Cypriniformes was recorded as dominant order contributing 40.62% and the rest 7 orders Perciformes, Siluriformes, Synbranchiformes, Channiformes, Beloniformes, Tetraodontiformes and Osteoglossiformes contributing 26.31%, 12.4%, 9.77%, 7.59%, 2.90%, 0.22% and 0.10% respectively. Puntius chola (chola puti) was the most abundant (30.8%) and Monopterus cuchia (Kuchia) was the least abundant (0.05%) species. Total six threatened species were recorded (according to IUCN, 2015) of which four (2.90%) are Vulnerable, one (0.4%) as Endangered and one (1.22%) as Critically Endangered. The average value of Shannon -Weiner Diversity Index (H), Simpson Dominance Index (D) and Margalef Richness Index (d) were calculated as 2.232±0.14, 0.126±0.03and 2.764±0.29 respectively.
