Title : Effect of Soya-Based Diet on Hypertension in Middle-Aged Women: A Prospective Study in Jhunjhunu, Rajasthan
Authors Dr. Rachana
Abstract: Hypertension is a growing health concern among middle-aged women, particularly in India, where lifestyle and dietary patterns play a significant role in disease prevalence. This study evaluates the impact of a soya-based diet on blood pressure regulation among hypertensive women in Jhunjhunu, Rajasthan. A six-month prospective study was conducted with 100 participants aged 40–60 years. Participants were divided into two groups: one following a soya-based dietary intervention and another continuing with their regular diet. The intervention group was provided with a daily intake of soya-based foods such as tofu, soya milk, and soya flour-based chapatis, ensuring a minimum of 25 grams of soya protein per day. Baseline and post-intervention blood pressure readings were recorded, along with additional data on BMI, lipid profile, and dietary intake. The results indicate a significant reduction in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure among women consuming a soya-based diet. The intervention group showed a mean reduction of 10–12 mmHg in systolic blood pressure and 5–7 mmHg in diastolic blood pressure. Additionally, improvements in lipid profiles, including increased HDL levels and reduced LDL and triglycerides, were observed. The findings suggest that dietary modifications, particularly the inclusion of soya-based foods, can serve as a non-pharmacological intervention for hypertension management. The study highlights the potential role of plant-based diets in cardiovascular health and encourages further large-scale research to validate these results. Adopting a soya-based diet could be a cost-effective and sustainable strategy for reducing hypertension and associated cardiovascular risks among middle-aged women in India.

Title : Impact of Irrigation on Soil Chemical Properties in Ganganagar District: A Geographical Perspective
Authors Dr. Naresh Kumar Verma
Abstract: The introduction of extensive irrigation systems, particularly the Indira Gandhi Canal Project, has significantly transformed the agricultural landscape of Ganganagar District in northwestern Rajasthan. While irrigation has substantially improved agricultural productivity in this semi-arid region, it has also induced notable changes in the chemical composition of soils, raising concerns about long-term soil health and sustainability. This research investigates the geographical variations in soil chemical properties influenced by different irrigation regimes—namely canal irrigation, tubewell irrigation, and rainfed conditions—across selected regions of Ganganagar District. Soil samples were collected from representative sites in both command (canal-irrigated) and uncommand (non-canal) areas, and analyzed for critical chemical parameters including soil pH, electrical conductivity (EC), organic carbon (OC), available nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), and selected micronutrients like zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), and manganese (Mn). The study reveals that canal-irrigated areas, especially those under long-term and intensive irrigation, tend to exhibit elevated pH and EC levels, indicating increased alkalinity and salinization due to the upward movement and accumulation of salts. These conditions are further exacerbated in areas where poor-quality groundwater is used, particularly in tail-end regions with limited canal supply. Additionally, a declining trend in organic carbon and essential macronutrients was observed, possibly due to intensive cropping, reduced organic matter input, and nutrient leaching. In contrast, rainfed areas showed relatively stable chemical properties, albeit with lower fertility indices. The spatial analysis underscores the uneven impact of irrigation on soil quality, influenced by factors such as irrigation water source, soil texture, cropping intensity, and drainage conditions. From a geographical perspective, the study highlights the need for location-specific soil and water management strategies to prevent further degradation. Measures such as conjunctive use of surface and groundwater, adoption of soil ameliorants (e.g., gypsum), crop rotation, and organic manure application are suggested to maintain soil chemical balance. The research calls for integrated approaches in agricultural planning that align with both environmental sustainability and regional development objectives.

Title : Climate Change and Disaster Vulnerability in Jhunjhunu District
Authors Dilkush Sharma, Sawant Ram
Abstract: Jhunjhunu is a district in northeastern Rajasthan, lying in a semi-arid to arid zone. It is already facing weather extremes, water scarcity, agricultural distress, and fragile ecosystems. This paper examines: climate trends in Jhunjhunu (temperature, rainfall), the types of disasters and climate hazards to which it is vulnerable; how socio-economic conditions affect vulnerability; how well (or poorly) the district is adapting; and what policy, planning, and community-level interventions might reduce disaster risk. Key findings include increasing variability in rainfall, frequent meteorological droughts, groundwater stress, heat extremes, and high sensitivity due to dependence on rainfed agriculture. The adaptive capacity is constrained by limited water infrastructure, uneven socio-economic development, and weak institutional mechanisms. The paper concludes with recommendations for improving resilience: better water management (rainwater harvesting, recharge), more climate-smart agricultural practices, early warning systems, capacity building, and integrating climate risk into local planning.

Title : GIS-Based Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis for Solar Energy Site Suitability in Seoni District, Madhya Pradesh
Authors Rubina A. Diwan, Dr. Sarmila, Dr. Mukesh Kumar Sharma
Abstract: This study presents a GIS-based Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and weighted overlay to identify suitable sites for utility-scale and distributed solar photovoltaic (PV) installations in Seoni District, Madhya Pradesh, India. Input layers include solar resource (GHI/DNI), slope, elevation, land use/land cover (LULC), distance to roads and grid, distance from settlements and water bodies, and protected/forest areas. Data sources comprised Global Solar Atlas / NASA POWER for irradiance, SRTM DEM for topography, and national/state LULC and administrative layers. Criteria weights were derived through AHP, consistency tested, and a final suitability map produced and classified into Very High, High, Moderate, Low, and Unsuitable zones. The results highlight concentrated high-suitability zones on relatively flat, non-forest areas near road and grid access — offering practical guidance for planners and investors seeking to deploy PV in Seoni district. Key uncertainties and recommendations for field verification and socio-environmental impact assessment are discussed.

Title : Applied Phytogeography: Medicinal Plants of Churu District, Rajasthan
Authors Dr. Ram Kishor Sharma
Abstract: This paper presents an applied phytogeographical study of medicinal plants in Churu District, Rajasthan. Combining field surveys, participatory ethnobotanical interviews, herbarium-based identification, and GIS mapping, the study documents the distribution, life-form spectrum, dominant families, and traditional uses of medicinal taxa in the arid landscapes of Churu. Findings provide a baseline for conservation, sustainable use, and future pharmacological research.
