During its existence in the last twelve years the Society could focus on most of the issues pertaining to the cultivation, production management, diseases and pest management, post harvest and marketing aspects of spices, medicinal and aromatic plants. It is heartening to note that the Seminars organized by the Society has always received the full attention of the various core groups of these sectors. The above National Seminar was organized at IISR, Calicut during 24-26 October 2002. There were about 87 papers covering Production Strategies for Optimization of Inputs, Biodiveristy and Conservation, Biorational Management of Pest and Disease and Value Addition, Marketing and Export Strategies. There were three invited papers focusing on production of vanilla, cropping systems and global market outlook of pepper. This publication brings out the full articles under Crop Production (22), Biodiversity (9), Biorational Management (4) and Value Addition and Marketing (8). The opinions expressed in the papers in this issue are that of the authors and need not represent the views of ISS.

MA, M.Phil.NET Assistant Professor, Department of Economics, Providence College for Women, Coonoor, Tamilnadu, India Email. [email protected], contact No. 9489524836 ABSTRACT: The MGNREGA 2005, plays a significant role to meet the practical as well as strategic needs of women’s participation. It is a self –targeting programme, intended in increasing outreach to the poor and marginalized sections of the society such as women and helping them towards the cause of financial and economic inclusion in the society. In the rural milieu, it promises employment opportunities for women and their empowerment. While their hardships have been reduced due to developmental projects carried out in rural areas, self-earnings have improved their status to a certain extent. However, women’s decision for participation and their share in MNREGP jobs is hindered by various factors. Apart from some structural problems, inattentiveness and improper implementation of scheme, social attitudes, exploitation and corruption have put question marks over the intents of the programme. At this juncture, the litmus test of the policy will have an impact on the entire process of rural development and women employment opportunities in India. There is excitement as well as disappointment over the implementation on the Act.

  • Fungal Database in Tamil Nadu
    FUNGAL DATABASE IN TAMIL NADU 1. INTRODUCTION The first Indian fungus to be recorded was from Tranqeubar, (Tarangambadi) in the erstwhile Madras State (Tamil Nadu) . A fungus collected by the Danish Missonary, Koenig was sent by him to Linnaeus who named it Lycoperdon pistillaris. This fungus is now known as Podaxis pistillaris (earliar known as Podaxon pistillaris). Subsequently several records of fungi from Tamil Nadu were made and these were described mostly by the British Mycologists Berkely, Cooke and Massee. With the appointment of E. J. Butler as Cryptogamic Botanist to the Government of India more systematic surveys of Indian fungal floras were initated . However, large scale collections of fungi in Tamil Nadu were made only after the establishment of the Mycology section at the Agricultural college and Research Institute, Coimbatore (Presently Tamil Nadu Agricultural University) with William Mc Rae as Government Mycologist. Mc Rae and his staff made many collections of Indian fungi. A large number of these fungi were studied by Butler and the Sydows, H and P., and described or recorded in the series of papers entitled " Fungi India Orientalis" published in the latter’s journal. In laters year many mycologists notably T.S. Ramakrishnan and his colleagues K. Ramakrishnan and N.V. Sundaram have added substantially to our knowledge of fungi from Tamil Nadu through their series of papers "Additions to fungi of Madras". They mainly concentrated on fungi causing diseases in plants. During this period a school of Mycology was established in the University of Madras under the leadership of C.V. Subramanian. Over a Period of four decades he and his students have contributed much to the knowledge of fungi from Tamil Nadu.
