Summarises the results of a study on the traditional methods of butter making-conducted to determine the efficiency of the process and the quality of butter produced. Reports on initial experiments carried out to devise improved methods of butter making.
We explore processes that enable effective policies and practices for managing the links between water, energy, and food. Three case studies are assessed at different scales in the Mekong River basin, Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe. We find that there are considerable opportunities for improving outcomes...
Studies from nine states indicate that adoption of micro-irrigation (MI) technologies - drip and sprinkler systems - has a positive impact in terms of water saving, yield and income enhancement at farm level.
