78 Mites on Some Medicinal Plants Occurring in Purulia and Bankura Districts of South Bengal with Two New Reports from India
Vol. 21 (3), September, 2019 BIONOTES MITES ON SOME MEDICINAL PLANTS OCCURRING IN PURULIA AND BANKURA DISTRICTS OF SOUTH BENGAL WITH TWO NEW REPORTS FROM INDIA ALONG WITH KEYS TO DIFFERENT TAXONOMIC CATEGORIES AFSANA MONDAL1 & S.K. GUPTA2 Medicinal Plants Research and Extension Centre, Ramakrishna Mission Ashrama, Narendrapur, Kolkata – 700103 [email protected] Reviewer: Peter Smetacek Introduction The two districts, viz. Purulia and Bankura, reported, of those, 11 being phytophagous, 17 come under South Bengal and both are being predatory and 2 being fungal feeders. It considered as drought prone areas. Purulia is has also included 2 species, viz. Amblyseius located between 22.60° and 23.50° North sakalava Blommers and Orthotydeus latitude, 85.75° and 76.65° East longitude. caudatus (Duges), the records of which were Bankura district is located in 22.38° and earlier unknown from India. These apart, 23.38° North latitude and between 86.36° and Raoeilla pandanae Mohanasundaram has also 87.46° East longitude. The collection spots in been reported for the first time from West Purulia district were Bundwan, Baghmundi, Bengal. All the measurements given in the text Jalda-I, Santuri and those in Bankura district are in microns. A key to all taxonomic were Chhatna, Bishnupur, Simlapal. The total categories has also been provided. land areas of these two districts are 6259 and Materials and Methods 6882 sq. km., respectively. The climatic The mites including both phytophagous and conditions of the two districts are tropical to predatory groups were collected during July, sub-tropical. Although both the districts are 2018 to April, 2019 from medicinal plants very dry areas but they are good habitats for encountered in Purulia and Bankura districts many medicinal plants. -
Machine Learning Approach for Kharif Rice Yield Prediction Integrating Multi-Temporal Vegetation Indices and Weather and Non-Weather Variables

Workshop on “Earth Observations for Agricultural Monitoring”, 18–20 February 2019, New Delhi, India MACHINE LEARNING APPROACH FOR KHARIF RICE YIELD PREDICTION INTEGRATING MULTI-TEMPORAL VEGETATION INDICES AND WEATHER AND NON-WEATHER VARIABLES Aditi Chandra*1, Pabitra Mitra1, S. K. Dubey2 and S. S. Ray2 1Dept. of Computer Science & Engineering, IIT, Kharagpur, India – (aditi.chandra.iitkgp, pabitra)@gmail.com 2Mahalanobis National Crop Forecast Centre, DAC&FW, New Delhi 110 012, India - [email protected], [email protected] Commission III, WG III/10 KEY WORDS: Artificial Neural Network, Random Forest, NDVI, Kharif Rice, Yield Prediction, Purulia, Bankura, ABSTRACT The development of kharif rice yield prediction models was attempted through Machine Learning approaches such as Artificial Neural Network and Random Forest for the 42 blocks covering 13,141 sq km upland rainfed area of Purulia and Bankura district, West Bengal. Models were developed integrating monthly NDVI with weather and non-weather variables at block-level for the period 2006 to 2015. The model correlation obtained was 0.702 with MSE 0.01. Though the weather variables vs NDVI models are quite satisfactory, NDVI vs kharif rice yield models however, show relatively less correlation, about 0.6 revealing the requirement of varied additional farmer-controlled inputs. Development of NDVI vs crop yield models for different crop growth stages or fortnightly over a larger data set with selective adding of weather and non-weather variables to NDVI would be the most appropriate. -

Complex, H.I.T. Campus, Hatiberia, Haldia – 721657, Purba Medinipur, West Bengal, India [email protected] Abstract: The interaction of subsurface water with the surface water depends mainly on the geological and geomorphological setting of the landscape. Various geological and physiographic characteristics play a major role at different levels in the occurrence and movement of groundwater in any terrain. Water resources in the Rupnarayan-Dwarakeshwar basin are unevenly distributed in spatio- temporal domain. Here terrain parameters steer the discharge and recharge mechanism of ground water and it is observable in the water table fluctuation in the spatial domain. In this research, the application of satellite images proved to be very useful in identifying the landform characteristics of the study area. The study reveals the fact of low groundwater depth at the hard rock terrain and high depth of the same at the river mouth. The average depth of ground water of the basin is reported to be 4-8 metres below ground level. -
