Throughout life's myriad encounters and experiences, we often find ourselves awash in a sea of thoughts and emotions. In these moments, words become the vessel through which we explore nature's beauty, the grandeur of creation, the intricacies of relationships, and the ebb and flow of life's joys and sorrows. "Pie of a Moon" embarks on a thoughtprovoking journey, with Moon as a central character in stories passed down through grandmothers, then delving into the ways lovers express their admiration for its beauty and the visual connection that binds separated hearts. Along the way, it explores themes such as the unwavering love of a mother, the endless anticipation of a beloved's return, the silence shared by lovers, life's relentless struggles, and the profound beauty of togetherness. This collection, written in a mix of Hindi and English, is a profound voyage through the spectrum of human emotions, a canvas for the vivid expressions of joy, sorrow, gratitude, and the unending beauty of life's experiences.

Theory And Practice Of Integrated Pest Management

The dominance of insects in the world fauna has made them the humanity's greatest rival for the world's food resources, both directly by eating the plants cultivated for food and indirectly as vectors of pathogens attacking these plants. Agricultural scientists and especially entomologists have strived hard to develop a diversity of cultural, mechanical, biological and chemical weapons during the last more than two centuries to gain dominance over insects. However, there is evidence that insect pest problems have escalated with an increasing cropping intensity and with the use of agrochemicals inherent in modern agriculture. Consequently, Indian plant protection scientists have intensified r...
