Assessment of the suitability of selected extractants for boron in some inceptisols of Eastern India under sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) (2023)
Journal Article

Sunflower; as a contingent crop, is often exposed to boron (B) deficiency in soils of low fertility. The deficiency and toxicity of B being very narrow, warrants the need for its proper estimation in soil-plant systems through specific extractants. T...

Pollution and health risk assessment of mine tailings contaminated soils in India from toxic elements with statistical approaches (2023)
Journal Article

The rapid mining activities of mica mines in Giridih district, India, have led to toxic metal pollution of agricultural soil. This is a key concern for environmental risk and human health. 63 top soil samples were collected at a distance of 10 m (Zon...

Determination of bioavailable arsenic threshold and validation of modelled permissible total arsenic in paddy soil using machine learning (2023)
Journal Article

Minimizing arsenic intake from food consumption is a key aspect of the public health response in As-contaminated regions. In many of these regions, rice is the predominant staple food. Here we present a validated maximum allowable concentration of to...

A cumulative assessment of plant growth stages and selenium supplementation on arsenic and micronutrients accumulation in rice grains (2023)
Journal Article

Arsenic (As) accumulation in rice grain and subsequent transmission into the food chain is a major global concern. Numerous attempts to minimize As accumulation in rice have been researched till date. The current investigation evaluates the relative...

Sulphur forms and maize yield under long term tillage practices and cropping systems (2023)
Journal Article
Kumari, K., Shambhavi, S., Mandal, J., Bihari, B., Kumar, S., Kumar, A., & Kumar, K. (in press). Sulphur forms and maize yield under long term tillage practices and cropping systems. Cereal Research Communications, https://doi.org/10.1007/s42976-023-00350-0

Sulphur apart from being an essential element for plant growth is also a structural constituent of many coenzymes and secondary plant products or acts as a functional group directly involved in metabolic reactions and hence the factors promoting its...
