Antibacterial resistance (ABR) is nowadays considered as a public global health problem, with expected mortality rate of 106 yearly by 2050. ABR happens when pathogenic bacteria are not affected to antibacterial therapy, resulting in the spread of the pathogens inside the host. Antibacterial resistance in pathogenic bacteria is a significant concern that is correlated with high rates of deaths and illness. Bacterial resistance to many antibiotics in Gram- negative and – positive bacteria can’t be treated easily and might not be irradicated by conventional antimicrobials. Resistance acquisition to antimicrobials by bacterial pathogens is one of the most critical issues that should be well studied, especially by the increasing data that indicated a very high rates, that may reach 100% of pathogenic bacteria that resist to many antibiotics in developing countries, principally in Asia and Africa. ABR has also been found that transfer of resistance genes is the main mechanism by which acquisition of resistance to antibiotics is mediated among many species of pathogenic bacteria.

Principles and Practices of Electrical Machines
Authors: Jain Naveen , Agarwal Umesh
Published: August 2024

"This book serves as an initial resource for the practical course on electrical machines. Typically, practical sessions are conducted with tedious monotony, utilizing components such as dull monotony, place components, hook-up wires, and connect wires, with results expected well beforehand. Regrettably, there is a scarcity of books and manuals that can inspire and guide students during experimentation. This publication aims to address the existing gap in the field of practical experimentation and instill a constructive attitude towards conducting experiments. The experiments included in this book cover a broad scope of topics that support a complementary theoretical course on electrical machines. The objectives to be accomplished at the end of each experiment are clearly stated at the outset, providing direction and purpose for the students. The question bank is designed to facilitate the analysis of results, the correlation of theoretical knowledge with observations, and the comprehension of practical limitations. "
Soil Salinity and Alkalinity
Authors: Naorem Anandkumar
Published: August 2024

"Volume 03 highlights into the intricate world of soil salinity and alkalinity, addressing the challenges posed by salt-affected soils and the measures to remediate such stressed environments. Salt-affected soils, characterized by high levels of soluble salts, pose significant obstacles to agricultural productivity, ecosystem sustainability, and global food security. In this volume, we explore the criteria used to classify salt-affected soils, including electrical conductivity (EC), sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), and exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP). By understanding the indicators of soil salinity and alkalinity, readers gain insights into the extent and severity of soil stress and the potential impacts on soil quality and crop health. The importance of addressing soil salinity and alkalinity cannot be overstated, as these conditions can have far-reaching consequences for global food production. Saline soils can inhibit nutrient uptake by plants, reduce water availability, and induce physiological stress, leading to reduced crop yields and economic losses for farmers. Alkaline soils, characterized by high pH levels, can further exacerbate nutrient deficiencies and hinder plant growth, particularly for acid-sensitive crops. By examining the impacts of salt-affected soils on global food production, we gain a deeper appreciation for the urgency of addressing these soil stresses and promoting sustainable land management practices. In this volume, we also explore the measures available to remediate salt-affected soils and restore soil fertility and productivity. From leaching and drainage to soil amendments and crop selection, a range of strategies can be employed to mitigate the impacts of soil salinity and alkalinity and promote soil health and resilience. By integrating scientific knowledge with practical solutions, researchers, policymakers, and practitioners can develop tailored approaches to address salt-affected soils, fostering sustainable agriculture and food security for future generations.

"Reorienting and refining curriculum of the extension education is very important in this period of highly vibrant and fast changing society particularly in farming sector. Participatory Curriculum Development (PCD) in Agricultural extension education is an evolving approach to enrich the quality of education in the farm universities. The main steps of the PCD approach adopted here have high practical utility in refining formal course contents for the Undergraduate and Postgraduate courses in Agricultural Extension. A great deal of judgment is essential while determining on how much participation is required from which stakeholders at what levels. However, while developing this toolkit we have taken the insights through Focus Group Discussions and Field level Workshops with farmers, field extension workers, teachers in extension education, both UG PG students perusing graduation in agriculture and para extension workers by considering stakeholders as a pivotal factor for the success of extension education. The adopted Participatory Curriculum Development (PCD) approach, outlined in this toolkit, holds significant practical utility for shaping formal course contents in Agricultural Extension at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. The toolkit highlights the importance of thoughtful consideration regarding the extent and type of stakeholder participation at various levels. The emphasis was primarily on enhancing practical utility and elucidating the concept of participatory curriculum development. We explored the reasons behind advocating participatory methods in teaching and learning, along with the advantages obtained through the adoption of participatory approaches. It is hoped that this toolkit serves as an stimulation for individuals undertaking curriculum restructuring efforts, aiming to enhance the quality and efficiency of agricultural education. We anticipate that the toolkit developed will assist to adopt participatory methods in developing curricula for emerging subjects in agricultural science. Finally, we hope it supports in reorienting existing curricula to align to meet the demands of current job market by producing a skilled workforce capable of addressing contemporary challenges in agriculture.
