Data statistik menunjukan, dari 262 koperasi di Kota Cimahi, tidak seluruhnya aktif dan sehat. Jumlah koperasi yang melakukan RAT sejak tahun 2016 hanya sebanyak 76 koperasi dari 420 koperasi, atau sebesar 18,10%. Sementara tahun 2020 mengalami penurunan menjadi 33,67%, yaitu dari 105 koperasi menjadi 70 koperasi, sedangkan koperasi dalam kategori sehat turun sebesar 72,5%, dari 40 koperasi menjadi hanya 11 koperasi.

Penurunan yang disebabkan situasi Pandemi Covid 19, diperburuk pula oleh kegagalan pengurus koperasi dalam membuat laporan keuangan sebagai acuan RAT. RAT sebagai syarat agar koperasi tetap eksis dan tidak dibubarkan, maka penanganan terhadap masalah ini harus  dilakukan, antara lain melalui kegiatan pelatihan dan pendampingan.

Pelatihan dan pendampingan diikuti oleh 20 peserta dari koperasi aktif yang belum melaksanakan RAT. Pelatihan dilaksanakan selama3 hari , dilanjutkan dengan pendampingan berupa konsultasi dan monitoring penyusunaan laporan keuangan selama 2 hari. Baik pelatihan maupun pendampingan dilaksanakan secara daring, dan memperlihatkan hasil yang positif.

Existence and Essence of Cosmic Absurdity in Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the d’Urbervilles: A Pure Woman Faithfully Presented
Authors: Dharmendra Kumar Singh
Published: November 2022

Thomas Hardy, a world-famous English novelist, is not only known as the ‘Saint of Max Gate’ but also a ‘Proto-Existentialist’ in the domain of English literature. Both his life and his works are in the grip of Existentialism. As his novels, especially tragic ones, are, either directly or indirectly, affected by the themes, thoughts, and concepts of Existentialism, his sensitively hectic life is also, either directly or indirectly, influenced by the existential thinkers and writers like Kierkegaard, Dostoevsky, Sartre, Nietzsche, and Camus, etc. As his thoughts existing in his works prove, his novels reflect the predicament of human existence, which is concerned with the experiences of individuals’ life. The Absurdity of the cosmos and human life, angst, authenticity, dread, despair, existential crises, preceding existence over essence, facticity, and the Other and the Look, are such existential concepts as are brimming in his novels. The concept of ‘Cosmic Absurdity,’ which is related to the concept of the ‘Absurd,’ that is the crux of ‘Absurdism,’ is an axis around which revolves around his most tragic novels. This article explores the existence and essence of ‘Cosmic Absurdity’ in Thomas Hardy’s novel Tess of the d’Urbervilles. In addition, it discusses its tools and how more or less, they affect the plot, characters, and theme of the mentioned novel.

Published: November 2022

A study was aimed to observe the impact of withdrawal of anthelmintic type and increase in refugia through community dilution on reversion towards benzimidazole (BZ) susceptibility in Haemonchus contortus at an organized sheep farm in semi-arid Rajasthan. In sheep flocks of ICAR-Central Sheep and Wool Research Institute, Avikanagar reduced efficacy (80%) on faecal egg count reduction test (FECRT) with ED50 of 0.239 μg thiabendazole (TBZ)/ml on egg hatch assay (EHA) indicative of emergence of H. contortus resistant to BZ was observed in the year 1995. Following discontinuation of BZ for deworming at farm since 1996, the efficacy varied between 0-44% in the year 2000 with predominance of BZ-resistant alleles (>90%) between the year 2005 to 2010. efficacy was still low (26% on FECRT, ED50 of 0.196 Î¼g TBZ/ml on EHA) even after 15 yr post withdrawal (in 2010). Later on, the concept of community dilution and refugia were implemented for worm management. With these strategies, during 2018-20 (22 yr post withdrawal) a significant improvement (86-93%) in efficacy of BZ was noticed against H. contortus. Simultaneously, the ED50 values ranged from 0.011 to 0.119 with an average of 0.075±0.008 μg TBZ/ml on EHA with prevalence of BZ susceptible alleles up to 48% on allele specific PCR assay. The study indicates the possibility of reversion to BZ susceptibility in H. contortus population in farm area with community dilution and refugia based worm management strategies.

Published: November 2022

The present study on theileriosis prevalence in cattle and buffaloes of India was reckoned by systematic review and meta-analysis. The studies on theileriosis prevalence reported during the period 1984-2019, were collected by using online databases, and offline literature and meta-analyses was done in R-Software. The theileriosis prevalence was 20% [95% level, CI 16-25%, PI 2-74%], obtained by using 70,688 samples. The increasing trend of theileriosis prevalence was observed in the recent period [2011-19] when compared to past years. A higher theileriosis prevalence in the Central zone [24%] than in other zones was observed. The state-wise analysis revealed a higher prevalence in Puducherry and Assam. The method-wise breakdown revealed a higher prevalence by serology for India [39%] in comparison to other methods. Host species-wise scrutiny indicated a higher prevalence in cattle [22%] than buffaloes [14%]. Theileriosis was caused by Theileria (T.) annulata [21%], T. orientalis [16%], and T. species [17%] in India. The theileriosis prevalence established by systematic review and meta-analysis in the present study forms the first report from India to the best of our knowledge. It also documents a valuable literature resource on theileriosis prevalence studies in India. This study helps in identifying the theileriosis high-risk zones and states in India. It will help the policymakers and various stakeholders in decision making and wisely using the scarce resources available in implementing preventive strategies effectively. Further, theileriosis prevention can be employed by adopting effective therapeutic measures and vector control strategies, which will augment the profits to dairy farmers in India.

Published: November 2022

The cattle having hoof diseases were selected in the study and divided into 2 groups having 6 animals in each group. For induction of intravenous regional anesthesia, tourniquet was placed circumferentially at the metacarpus and just below dewclaw in group 1 and 2, respectively. Mixture of lignocaine and ketamine (L+K) (4 mg/kg and 3 mg/kg b. wt.) was injected in the radial vein in group 1 animals. However, in group 2 animals the dose of L+K was halved (2 mg/kg and 1.5 mg/kg b. wt.) and injected in the dorsal common digital vein III. The anesthetic potency was monitored by observing the HR, PR, RR, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and SPO2. In group 1 the heart rate decreased significantly at 10 min interval. Peripheral oxygen saturation significantly decreased up to 60 min and 40 minutes in group 1 and 2 animals, respectively. Systolic pressure significantly increased at 60 minute interval in group 1 animals. After removal of tourniquet, systolic pressure and diastolic pressure was significantly increased in group 2. Sensory and motor block onset time was less in group 2 as compared to group 1. Sensory and motor block recovery time was long in group 2 as compared to group 1 animals. It was concluded that novel IVRA technique was more safe as compared to standard IVRA for the hoof anesthesia in cattle because low doses of local anesthetic are required in this technique with early sensory and motor block, and prolonged effect.

Published: November 2022

A total of 310 sporting bulls belonging to Pulikulam, Kangayam, Umblachery and non-descript cattle were used to assess the morphometric traits such as body weight (kg) and body length (cm), height at withers and chest girth (cm), face length and face width (cm), horn length and horn circumference and skin thickness (mm). The body measurements were analyzed to study the effect of different factors such as place of event, genetic and age groups by the general linear model. From this analyses, body weight and chest girth did not vary among different genetic groups, but, numerically higher body weight values were observed at more than six years of age. Kangayam bulls had significantly higher height at withers, when compared to other genetic groups. Pulikulam breed had higher face length (46.79±1.52 cm), maximum horn length (31.38±3.05 cm) and face width (20.53±1.04 cm), when compared to other genetic groups. Age of the bull, genetic groups and place of event did not show any significant effect on skin thickness. Overall, Pulikulam breed had optimum parameters with respect to body length, body weight, horn length and horn circumference and these attributes would confer jallikattu breed when compared to other recognized breeds.

Published: November 2022

Effect of hydroalcoholic extracts of Pistacia vera L. shell, Anacardium occidentale L. shell, Illicium verum Hook.f. fruit, and Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam seed was assessed in vitro against adult, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) of Cotylophoran cotylophorum of naturally infected sheep using worm motility assay and LDH activity assay kit, respectively. Extracts exhibited significant dose- and time-dependent anthelmintic responses by causing mortality of worms. Artocarpus heterophyllus seed exhibited maximum activity with 100% mortality of worms at a higher concentration of 4 mg/mL. Probit analysis revealed that the extracts of A. heterophyllus seed induced 50% worm mortality at a lower concentration (LD50=0.05 mg/mL) compared with those of I. verum fruit (LD50=2.22 mg/mL), P. vera shell (LD50=1.83 mg/mL) and A. occidentale seed (LD50=0.82 mg/mL) extracts. Evidently, A. heterophyllus seed extracts inhibited the LDH activity catalyzing the oxidation of lactate in adult C. cotylophorum. Qualitative screening of the extracts showed existence of amino acids, alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, and saponins, which are accountable for the anthelmintic effects observed.

Authors: SINGH RAM
Published: November 2022

To establish the tolerance level of T-2 toxin, day-old Japanese quail chicks (n=225) were divided into five dietary treatments: T1, control; T2, T1+50 ppb T-2 Toxin; T3, T1+100 ppb T-2 Toxin; T4, T1+150 ppb T-2 Toxin; T5, T1+200 ppb T-2 Toxin. Each diet was fed to 3 replicated groups of 15 birds each from 1 to 35 days of age. The results showed that the overall liveability percentage, at fifth week of age in T1 was statistically similar to T2 and T3; and higher than T4 and T5. The relative weight of liver, kidney and spleen in T1 was lower than T4 and T5; and statistically similar to T2 and T3. The relative weight of bursa in T1 was higher than T4 and T5; and statistically similar to T2 and T3. The CMI and HA titre values in T1 was higher than T4 and T5. The CMI and HA titre value in group T1 was statistically similar to T2 and T3. In group T2, mild necrosis of mucosa in the proventriculus and gizzard and in T3, dystrophy and granular degeneration in the liver and kidney and necrosis of mucosa in the gizzard and proventriculus was observed. In T4 and T5, severe histopathological lesions including hepatocyte necrosis with discrete foci, necrosis and inflammation of gallbladder mucosa having mild proliferation of bile ductules, necrosis of intestinal epithelium following transient shortening of villi and mitotic figures in crypt epithelium; necrosis in feather epithelium and mucosa of the proventriculus and gizzard was observed. In addition, dystrophy and granular degeneration in the liver and kidney; interstitial nephritis, kidney sclerosis and glomerulonephritis was also observed. It was concluded that Japanese quails can tolerate up to 100 ppb of T-2 toxin in their diet without any adverse effects on their liveability percentage, organs weight, immunity and histopathology of organs during 0-5 weeks of growth period.

Assembly of genome sequences of a microbial community is computationally challenging and complex than its single genome counterparts. Keeping in view the volume, diversity and varied abundance of different microbes, number of metagenome assemblers have been developed addressing specific associated computational issues mainly following De Bruijn Graph (DBG) and Overlap Layout Consensus (OLC) approaches. It is very pertinent to understand different computational approaches and issues of metagenomic assembly to further improve them with respect to time and computational resource requirements. Therefore, the main objective of this article is to discuss various metagenomics assemblers with respect to their development addressing major computational issues. Initially the computational perspective of single genome assemblers based on OLC and DBG graph construction approaches was described. This is followed by review of metagenomic assemblers with respect to the algorithm implemented for addressing issues in metagenome assembly. Further, performance of some of the popular metagenome assemblers were empirically evaluated with respect to their run time and memory requirements by taking diversified benchmark metagenomics data at ICAR-IASRI, New Delhi in 2019. It was concluded that performance of assemblers varied considerably on these datasets and there is further need to make an effort to develop new tools or to modify the existing ones using efficient algorithms and data structures.

The present study was conducted during 2015 and 2016 at ICAR-CITH, Rangreth, Srinagar to corroborate genetic variability among walnut genotypes and determine the potential traits for selection of superior genotypes. Genetic variability in any crop is a pre-requisite to initiate the breeding programme for the selection of superior entries over the existing cultivars. The efficiency of selection largely depends upon the magnitude of the genetic variability present in the plant population. Thus, large genetic variability offers better scope for the crop improvement. The experimental material comprised 136 walnut genotypes. Nut samples of each genotype were collected randomly in five replications and each replication consisted of five nuts. Quantitative traits were recorded as per walnut descriptors developed by IPGRI. The highly significant differences (P = 0.01) existed between genotypes for the nut and kernel traits studied. The range of some economically important traits varied widely for nut weight (6.08–24.23 g), kernel weight (3.30–11.16 g), and kernel recovery (36.27–60.19 %). The estimates of GCV and PCV were very high for nut weight (25.07, 26.05 respectively) and kernel weight (23.59, 25.35 respectively) indicating the importance of these traits in selection of superior genotypes. Trait association analysis also revealed mutual relationships and degree of interrelationships among all the nut and kernel traits. Thus, ample genetic variability observed among the studied genotypes for nut and kernel traits indicated effectiveness of direct selection for improvement of these commercially important traits.

Published: November 2022

Weeds are the major biotic constraints in maize crop due to its wider row spacing limiting its productivity. So, a field experiment was conducted during kharif and rabi seasons of 2015 and 2016, at RRS, Karnal, Haryana to study the effect of different weed control methods on weed flora, growth and yield of kharif planted maize, the residual effect of different herbicides applied in maize on succeeding wheat crop. Treatments included two pre-emergence (PRE) herbicides namely atrazine 750 or 1000 g/ha and alachlor 2000 g/ha along with three post-emergence herbicides (POST) atrazine 500 g/ha, 2,4-D 500 g/ha and tembotrione 120 or 140 g/ha +S (surfactant) at 35 days after sowing (DAS) were used. Hand weeding twice at 20 and 35 DAS, weedy check and weed free treatments were also included. Major weed species infesting the experimental field were Cyperus rotundus, Brachiaria reptans, Dactyloctenium aegyptium, Amaranthus viridis, Digera arvensis, Phyllanthus niruri and Portulaca oleracea. Among herbicide treatments at 50 DAS, alachlor 2000 g/ha as PRE fb tembotrione 120 g/ha provided the highest weed control efficiency (95.1 %). Maximum grain yield (6505 and 6903 kg/ha) and yield attributes of maize were obtained in weed free treatment which was statistically at par with alachlor 2000 g/ha fb tembotrione 120 g/ha +S at 35 DAS (T13) (6380 and 6816 kg/ha). No visual phyto-toxicity of any applied herbicide was observed on maize crop. All herbicide treatments employed in kharif maize, irrespective of their dose and application time did not show any residual carryover effect on succeeding wheat crop.

Prunes are now occupying an important position in subtropical climates with respect to fruit crop diversification and human health. In the present study, 4 hybrids and 6 cultivars of sub tropical peaches and nectarines were evaluated for their phenolic content and antioxidant activity during 2015-16 and 2016-17. Total phenolic content (mg/100 g) and antioxidant capacity (%) present in the pulp was evaluated at Department of Fruit Science, PAU, Ludhiana (Punjab) India. During the study, it was found that the phenol content ranged between 10.32-51.21 mg/100 g in the year 2015-16 and 10.50-51.67 mg/100 g mg in 2016-17 among the hybrids and cultivars. The antioxidant capacity ranged between 63.51-83.25% in the year 2015-16 and 65.00-84.64% in 2016-17 among the hybrids and cultivars selected for study. Overall, peach and nectarines are rich in phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities and can serve as excellent sources of phyto-chemicals and natural antioxidants. Further, it can be concluded that a large variability exists for these compounds, which offers the scope for selection of superior cultivars and the hybrids.

The study entailed the determination of Genotype × Environment (G × E) interaction through Additive Main effects and Multiplicative Interaction (AMMI) analysis to identify radish (Raphanus sativus L.) genotypes suitable for cultivation in the province of Punjab, India. Twelve newly developed advanced breeding lines of radish were sown on six different dates for two years, i.e. 2014-15 and 2015-2016, in a randomized complete block design, replicated thrice. The explicit analysis of the AMMI revealed pronounced performance differences among the genotypes due to environments, explained by high percentage of GEI through IPCA1 and IPCA2 (65.48 %-82.79%). The AMMI analysis clearly delineated the mega environments and provided information on the cultivars exhibiting enhanced performance in those mega-environments on the basis of stability, performance and genetic difference between genotypes and environments. Temperature and photoperiod were the major contributing factors in G × E interactions. RL-30 excelled across the environments in terms of root length, root weight, plant weight and total marketable yield whilst, RB-21 performed best under hostile environments (high – ve score on IPCA axis).

An experiment was conducted in a factorial randomized block design during rabi 2016-18 at Ludhiana. There were 14 treatments consisting of two factors. Factor I comprised two levels of inorganic fertilizers [100% RDF (recommended dose of inorganic fertilizers) and 75% RDF] and factor II consisted of six combinations of biofertilizers along with a control. The data pooled over years revealed that the utilization of various biofertilizers significantly improved the plant height, number of leaves, 20-bulb weight, bulb equatorial diameter and yield over control at both levels of inorganic fertilizers. However, the per cent increase over their respective control was higher when these biofertilizers were used with 75% RDF than with 100% RDF. Biofertilizer treatments significantly improved the ascorbic acid, total soluble solids and pyruvic acid of bulbs, reduced the physiological loss in bulb weight during storage but the differences in bulb dry matter and ash content were non-significant. The effects of all biofertilizers on soil chemical and microbiological properties were beneficial but non-significant. Two treatments, i.e. 100% RDF + T6 (Azotobacter + Sphingobacterium + Burkholderia) and 100% RDF + T1 (Azotobacter + Bacillus) that exhibited 11.5% and 8.6% increment in bulb yield over control (100% RDF) have been identified. Besides, three treatments, i.e. 75% RDF + T6, 75% RDF + T1 and 75% RDF + T5 (Azotobacter + Bacillus + Burkholderia) registered 8.3%, 7.8% and 7.3% higher bulb yield over control (100% RDF) and therefore may be recommended to save 25% inorganic fertilizers.

Field experiments were conducted to identify the best source of nutrients and bio-mulch for fruit yield, quality and soil properties of organic okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) at U B K V, Pundibari, West Bengal, India during February- May 2017-18. The experiment was laid out in Factorial RBD comprising of two factors, viz. organic nutrient sources (N) and bio-mulches (M) having four levels each. The findings of the experiment suggested that basal application of Azophos biofertilizer enriched vermicompost (5 t/ha) along with foliar spray of seaweed extract (2 ml/l) at 30, 40 and 50 days of sowing (N4) emerged as best treatment in terms of highest number of fruits (19.94/plant) and maximum yield (14.39 t/ha). Among the different bio-mulches, the vegetable legume plant residue mulch (M4) recorded highest number of fruits (20.79/plant), total fruit yield (14.79 t/ha), maximum ascorbic acid content (18.47 mg/100 g) and increased total chlorophyll content (46.99 mg/100 g). The interaction of N4M4 recorded highest number of fruit (22.88/ plant), fruit yield (348.08 gm/plant), total yield (16.68 t/ha) and the maximum total fruit chlorophyll content (51.60 mg/100 g). All the interaction of organic nutrient sources and bio-mulches showed increase in available N, P, K and organic carbon content in post harvest soil over the initial status. The study concluded that adoption of biofertilizer enriched vermicompost in combination with 3 times foliar spray of seaweed extract in standing crop with legume as mulch have significant positive impact on fruit yield, quality and soil properties of organic okra.
