Silk industry in India presently provides gainful employment to an estimated five million persons in the downstream activities of mulberry and non-mulberry subsection. In this challenging scenario, more investment is required for seeding technology, building farmer level infrastructure and for empowering bivoltine sericulture industry. A large chunk of labour is employed in all the sericulture activities and the industry is a boon to the labour surplus countries like India. Sericulture also employs a sizable share of women labour.
Researches on the development of vegetative propagation techniques have been carried out on Pterocarpuserinaceus trees in Burkina Faso. The objective of the study is to develop low cost production techniques of plants by air layering. It is specifically to highlight the diameter of the branch, the positions of the layers on the branch and the frequencies of watering which optimize the rooting rate of the layers. Two trials were carried out in rainy seasons in Saria, Burkina Faso, on a 10-year-old P. erinaceus plantation, where the mean height was 10.7 ± 2.5 m.

Polythene is a polymerized ethylene monomer which is resistant to degradation accumulates in an environment. Polythene used in everyday life as a packaging material. Release of toxic chemicals from polythene creates negative impacts on environment and life threatening problems to many aquatic and terrestrial organisms. The present study focused on biodegradation of polythene by soil microorganisms .Isolated microorganisms were identified based on biochemical characterization as Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus cereus.
Durian nursery can be done by using source of generative and vegetative material. Both sources of propagation have their own weaknesses and strengths. To obtain quality seeds, the combination of two sources of propagation materials each has complementary advantages. The process of merging can be through grafting or bud buds (grafting). Connection method on durian nursery can use side grafting and bud grafting. The purpose of this research is to know the difference of carbohydrate, protein, lipids, and auxin content in various sources and storage times scion.
