Organic farming: Organic farming is a system which avoids or largely excludes the use of synthetic inputs (such as fertilizers, pesticides, hormones, food additives etc) and to the maximum extent feasible rely upon crop rotations, crop residues, animal manures, off-farm organic waste, mineral grade rock additives and biological system of nutrient mobilization and plant protection.

Principles of food preservation: Principles of food preservation comprise of the methods of food preservation that slows down or prevent altogether the action of the agents of spoilage. At the same time, during the process of food preservation, the food should not be damaged. 

The food preservation principles are: 

1. Controlling microorganisms, 

2. Controlling enzymes, 

3. Controlling insects, rodents, birds and other physical causes of food deterioration.

Data is raw, unprocessed items such as numbers, and information is processed data that becomes meaningful, 

e.g. the teacher enters marks into the computer, and the average mark and pass percentage is calculated using the data (marks) to provide information on learner performance.

The computer takes items entered/raw data such as numbers, processes, it using software such as spreadsheet programme, that provides graphs providing information such as what was most, which are bigger or smaller, how many passed, etc.

According to my opinion, dot matrix printer is most suitable. Because they are capable of faster printing as well as it is cheap also. It’s printing quality is not good but cost per copy is very cheap. Dot matrix printer consists of a ribbon cartridge that is cheap and can be changed easily. Here we have to print more copies at a time. So dot matrix is suitable.

Major Government Schemes for the food sector:

• Soil Health Card Scheme: The scheme has been introduced to issue Soil Health Cards to all farmers in the country. The Soil Health Cards provide information to farmers on nutrient status of their soil along with recommendation on appropriate dosage of nutrients to be applied for improving soil health and its fertility.

• Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana (PMKSY): It was launched with the motto of ‘Har Khet Ko Paani’ for providing end-to end solutions in irrigation supply chain, viz. water sources, distribution network and farm level applications.
• Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana (PKVY): It is implemented with a view to promote organic farming in the country.
• National Agriculture Market (e-NAM): It provides e-marketing platform at national level and support creation of infrastructure to enable e-marketing.
• Micro Irrigation Fund (MIF): The main objective of the fund is to facilitate the States in mobilizing the resources for expanding coverage of Micro Irrigation.
• Agriculture Contingency Plan: Purpose is to tackle aberrant monsoon situations leading to drought and floods, extreme events (heat waves, cold waves, frost, hailstorms, cyclone) adversely affecting crops, livestock and fisheries (including horticulture).
• Rainfed Area Development Programme (RADP): Implemented for Rainfed Area Development.
• National Watershed Development Project for Rainfed Areas (NWDPRA): The scheme was launched for twin concepts of integrated watershed management and sustainable farming systems.
• Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY): PMFBY objective is to facilitate prompt claims settlement on crop insurance.
• Livestock insurance Scheme: It aims to provide protection mechanism to the farmers and cattle rearers against any eventual loss of animals due to death.
• National Scheme on Welfare of Fishermen: This scheme provides financial assistance to fishers.
• Scheme on Fisheries Training and Extension: It provides trainings for fishery sector.
• Gramin Bhandaran Yojna.
• National Horticulture Board (NHB) 
• National Horticulture Mission (NHM)

• Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority (APEDA) assistance for cold chain
• Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana (PMKVY)

Integrated disease management: Integrated disease management is the integration of the various disease management practices to prevent and manage diseases in crops. It is the combination of preventative or curative measures that can be put in place to minimize the risk of disease infection and spread.

RAM is read / write memory.

It is a high speed memory placed in between . the CPU and RAM. CPU is a high speed memory compared to RAM. There is a speed mismatch between the CPU and RAM to resolve this problem a high speed memory called cache memory is placed in between the CPU and RAM.

Integrated nutrient management: Integrated nutrient management (INM) aims at achieving a harmony in the judicious and efficient use of chemical fertilizers in conjunction with organic manures, crop residues, green manures, legumes in cropping systems, use of bio-fertilizers and other locally available nutrient sources for sustaining soil health and environment as well as crop productivity on long term basis.

Components of INM: Components of INM include judicious use of chemical fertilizers, organic manures, crop residues, green manures, legumes and biofertilizers.

1. Chemical Fertilizers: Use of chemical fertilizers in balanced proportions and recommended amounts is the quickest way of boosting crop production. Further, chemical fertilizers alone are unable to maintain and sustain the long term soil health and crop productivity because they are unable to supply organic matter and micro-nutrients like organic manures. Hence, the integrated use of inorganic fertilizers with organics increases the efficiency of applied nutrients and soil health.

2. Organic Manures: The organic manures which are mainly prepared from animal’s dung/urine and plant residues, are referred to as organic manures. FYM is the most important and commonly used organic manure in India. Common organic manures are FYM, compost from farm litter, night soil, sewage and sludge, green manure, poultry manure, vermicompost, biogas slurry, crop residues etc.

3. Legume Crops in Rotation: Legumes can form an important component of INM system when grown for grain or fodder in rice-wheat cropping system, intercropped with other non-legumes or when introduced as green manure crops. Legumes act as soil fertility restorers due to their ability to obtain N from the atmosphere in symbiosis with Rhizobium. It plays a vital role in N-fixation and economizing the N use.

4. Bio-Fertilizers: Bio-fertilizers are microbial inoculants of bacteria, algae, fungi alone or in combination and they augment the availability of nutrients to the plants. These microorganisms are used for the treatment of seeds, seedlings and application to soil or in composting to increase soil fertility and help in crop growth and high yield. Rhizobium, Azotobacter and Phospho-bacteria, BGA and Azolla are the major bio-fertilizers.

Mushroom production technology: Mushrooms are the fruiting bodies of a fungus. Mushrooms grow on compost. Commercial mushroom cultivation is a process utilizing waste materials such as horse manure, chicken manure, pig manure, wheat straw, rice straw, corn cobs, wood bark, sawdust, and cottonseed hulls to produce a delicious and nutritious food.

Mushroom production technology consists of six steps: Phase I composting, Phase II composting, spawning, casing, pinning, and cropping. These steps are described sequence-wise. Compost provides nutrients needed for mushrooms to grow.

Gulkhand and rose water, two important processed products of rose:

Gulkhand: Gulkhand is sun-cooked and cured over a long period with just Damask rose petals, candy sugar & assorted spices. Slow sun-cooking imparts depth & richness to the already concentrated floral, fruity and caramelized flavours of Gulkhand.

Rose water: Rose water is flavoured water made by steeping rose petals in water. Additionally, it is the hydrosol portion of the distillate of rose petals, a byproduct of the production of rose oil for use in perfume. It is used to flavour food, as a component in some cosmetic and medical preparations, and for religious purposes throughout Europe and Asia.
