The plantation of tree is an essential activity that promotes environmental sustainability and helps mitigate the effects of climate change. It involves the process of planting trees or other plants for commercial or environmental purposes.

 Krishi Vigyan Kendra:




ICAR-Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK) is a knowledge and Resource Center of Indian council of Agricultural Research (ICAR). This aids devopping and dessimination of location specific technologies at district level.

Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK), Gonikoppal is the first ICAR KVK in Karnataka was established on 16th December 1976 under Indian Institute of Horticultural Research (IIHR), Bengaluru in Kodagu District. Initially it was functioning at Chettalli, under Central Horticultural Experimental Station (CHES). Later during the year 1992, the erstwhile Citrus Experimental Station, Gonikoppal activities were shifted to Chettalli and Krishi Vigyan Kendra started functioning at Gonikoppal.

KVK, Gonikoppal is located in Virajpet taluk which is 50 km away from Madikeri and 92 km away from Mysore.

They Made  wines of different fruits and made  pickles of vegetables..We decided buy a wine ,but  unfortunately  couldn't get  😅.


Then we visited the  Nursery we took a plant and planted near KVK..

Plantation of  Coconut Plant:
A tall plant, coconut tree’s height is close to 20-30 meters in length. Coconut tree has an approximate age of 60-100 years. Coconut fruit is used for cooking, as well as medicinal purposes. The coconut tree is considered unique and special as each, and every part of the coconut tree is usable.

Coconut fruit: Coconut fruit is used for cooking. We get coconut milk, coconut water and tender coconut skin from the coconut fruit. When dried, the coconut fruit is used as Kopra. Coconuts are also used to extract oil, which is preferred widely. Coconut Trees are important for us all, be it humans, animals or birds. But we have somehow not protected them and perhaps that is why as on today we have been affected by global warming, severe pollution levels and other ill effects of deforestation. But it is still not so late.


The planting process involved digging holes of appropriate size and depth, placing the coconut plant carefully in the holes, and filling the gaps with soil. They ensured that plants were planted at a sufficient from each other to allow for proper growth and development.

Conclusion:

 We enjoyed and the information is informative us. Through this module we hope to inspire more students to take up similar initiatives and make a positive impact on the world.

The importance of water conservation becomes even more necessary as there is a limited source of freshwater that is beneficial for all human beings for a Healthy lifestyle. The freshwater available for use is unevenly distributed. Human activities are polluting the water sources threatening the survival of living bein gs. Water is the key to our survival. Covering more than 70% of Earth, this indispensable resource is used for everything from drinking, bathing to even cooking and washing activities.

MODULE 3: ORGANIC FARMING AND WASTE                                                                                                        MANAGEMENT INTRODUCTION:                                                                      Mushrooms are unique in the produce section because they are fungi and not vegetables. What we typically think of as a mushroom is the fleshy, fruiting, spore-bearing body of a fungus.  Mushrooms form from a small structure called a primordium which grows on some type of substrate. The primordium enlarges into an egg-shaped structure composed of hyphae, called a “button.” Mycelium, called the universal veil, surrounds the button initially. As the button grows, the veil breaks.  we went there and learnt so many things how to grow a mushroom and how to maintain all things and we enjoyed. Organic Forming: Organic farming, also known as ecological farming or biological farming, is an agricultural system that uses fertilizers of organic origin such as comp
