Published: August 2024

Agriculture plays a central role in India’s economy, contributing significantly to its overall development. A key factor in boosting agricultural production is the availability of irrigation. In India, the total irrigated area has increased from 22.6 million hectares in 1950-51 to 71.6 million hectares in 2018-19 which is more than half of the country’s net sown area. The main objective of the study is to analyse the extent of irrigated area by different sources in the state. For the study secondary data has been collected. The secondary data on irrigated area under different sources of irrigation in the state was collected from Karnataka Neeravari Nigama Limited (KNNL), Government of Karnataka and Director of Economics and Statistics (DES), and Karnataka at a Glance and from other published sources. The entire study period was divided into two periods as Period-I and Period-II (2001-02 to 2010-11 and 2011-12 to 2020-21) to analyse the performance of area irrigated by different sources in the state. The data were analysed using Compound Annual Growth Rate technique. The results revealed that the net irrigated area in Karnataka, analysed in two distinct periods has consistently exhibited a positive growth trajectory. The net irrigated area in Karnataka, exhibited consistent growth from 21,76,735 hectares in 2001-02 to 46,75,102 hectares in 2020-21, with a compound annual growth rate of 3.64 per cent. Notably, tubewells demonstrated the highest growth rate, experiencing a substantial increase of 14.62 per cent during the initial period. In contrast, the net irrigated area sourced from canals declined by 6.88 per cent, and that from tanks decreased by 1.28 per cent in the later period. This shift can be attributed to farmers practicing use of tube wells and bore wells as their primary and more reliable sources of water.

Farm waste is a serious economic, environmental and social problem. There is a need to analyze different types of waste produced in production, processing and management practices for better utilization of agricultural waste materials. Farm waste management helps framers to reduce cost on fertilizers and increasing yield of crops. Farm waste conversion reduces waste flow into air, water and reduces greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide. An exploratory research design was used to know the knowledge level of farmers towards management of farm waste in the selected talukas of Dharwad district. From Dharwad district Dharwad and Kundgol taluka were selected. In total 120 farmers were selected through purposive random sampling technique. The data was analyzed by using suitable statistical tools. The results revealed that majority (90.00%) of the farmers in both Dharwad & Kundgol taluka had fully aware that farm waste includes crop waste, domestic waste and livestock waste followed by more than 75 per cent of the farmers were fully aware about utilizing farm waste and that will increase their crop yield. About 80 per cent of the farmers were aware that the farm waste can be used for production of different products. While very few of the farmers (37.00%) fell in low knowledge category. It could be concluded that, all the crop wastes are placed in the right time and right place for best utilization in order to convert into useful products and control of pollution by proper waste management

Published: August 2024

This study aims to trace the historical development of theology in Islam and identify the factors that influence the emergence of various theological schools in Islam. This research also aims to understand how different theological views affect the way of thinking and lifestyle of Muslims. The research method used is the historical method which includes four stages: heuristics, verification, interpretation, and historiography. The results show that the development of Islamic theology can be divided into three main periods: classical, medieval, and modern. In the classical period, the rational and scientific Sunnatullah theology flourished, resulting in high productivity in various fields. However, in the medieval period, the fatalistic theology of Jabariyah dominated, causing a decline in theological thought. In the modern period, Islamic thinkers such as Sayyid Ahmad Khan, Ismail Raji Al-Faruqi, Muhammad Abduh, and Hasan Hanafi tried to adapt Islamic teachings to the changing times through a rational and contextual approach. They emphasized the importance of ijtihad and reassessment of the language and historical context of classical theology to answer the challenges of modernity. This research contributes to enriching contemporary Islamic studies with in-depth insights into the evolution of theological thought in Islam.
