Nitrogen (N) is the most important crop nutrient for improving crop productivity in rice-wheat cropping system. The continuous use of chemical fertilizer would lead gradual to decline of organic matter content and native N status in the soil, and decrease productivity in rice-wheat system. Alternatives have to be found out to improve the productive capacity of rice soils. Therefore, the present research was designed to investigate the application effect of six different organic N sources (OS) applied alone and in various combinations (75: 25, 50: 50 and 25: 75 %) with urea (U) on rice hybrid (Oryza sativa L., cv. Pukhraj), and their residual effects on the yield and yield components of subsequent wheat (Triticum aestivum L., cv. Siren). The field experiment was carried out on farmer’s field at Butkhela (Malakand) during 2011-13. The results revealed that the rest (N applied plots) showed better growth, higher yield and profitability than control (N not applied) in both crops. The inorganic N fertilizer (urea) was more beneficial in terms of better growth, yield, yield components, and profitability in case of current rice crop but had the less residual soil residual N after rice harvest that showed negative impact on the yield, yield components and profitability of subsequent wheat crop when compared with OS. Among the six OS used [three each from animal manures (AM) and three crop residues (CR)], poultry manure (PM) improved growth, yield components, biological (16331 kg ha-1) and grain yields (8459 kg ha-1), rice grains N contents (22%), soil N content (726 mg kg-1) after rice harvest, and had the highest profitability (192,000 PKR) than other OS. Results revealed that application of wheat straw resulted in the lowest biological (13020 and 7916 kg ha-1) and grain yields (6200 and 3219 kg ha-1) in both crops respectively and also had the less profitability (28,000 and 39,000 PKR) under rice-wheat system. Among the three ratios used, applying the required N (120 kg N ha-1) at the rate of 50% each from urea and OS (50:50) improved growth, biological (19415 and 8298 kg ha-1) and grain yields (9417 and 3451 kg ha-1 ) of rice and wheat, respectively, and also had the highest profitability (328,000 PKR) under rice-wheat cropping system. In both years, the yield and yield componetns, and profiatibility was higher while using mixtures of urea + AM than Urea + CR. The combine application of U + PM had the most positive, while, U + WR showed the most neagtive impact on yield and profitability under rice-wheat system. Increase in yield and yield components of the subsequent wheat crop was noticed with the increase in residual soil N (sole OS > OS + urea > sole urea > control). It can be concluded from the present findings that combined application of organic sources with urea not only improved growth, yield and yield components and profitability of the current rice crop; but their residual effects also increased yield, yield components and profitability of the subsequent wheat crop. It was therefore, suggested that application of organic sources in combination with urea (50:50) could increase the productivity, soil fertility and profitability under rice-wheat cropping system on sustainable basis.

تواریخ ادبیات اُردو کا فروغِ ادب میں کردار

تواریخ ادبیات اُردو کا فروغِ ادب میں کردار History is political, cultural or literary, is a social and social study. History writers have a great significance. If they are not unbelievable or not aware, then there are many misconceptions in the future. Therefore, history writers should always be obscurely, self-confident and powerful. The history and research capabilities of the writer in history are estimated. If a historian is not a researcher, then he is unable to present the truth. Similarly, a history trader does not have critical ability, he can try to review the facts. The historian not only parses events, but also offers a unique map of culture and culture. History of literature is especially described by culture and culture. History of the History of Urdu, it is known that historian literature is an important role in the promotion of Urdu. If the dates are removed, the understanding of literary literature will be impossible, that is why historians also play an important role promoting literature.

Correlation Studies of Arsenic Level in Drinking Water With Biological Samples and its Effects on Hormonal Profile of Female Population in District Sheikhupura

Present study involves determination of arsenic in drinking water samples from different tehsils of district Sheikhupura along with the analysis of hair and blood samples of females of 15-25 years of age. Biological samples of males of same age group were also analyzed as control. Blood hormonal level of LH and FSH was measured in both groups whereas estradiol and testosterone was detected in females and males respectively using ELISA technique. AAS method was employed to measure arsenic in water, hair and blood. Questionnaire was designed for assessment of socioeconomic and general health status of the study group. The data was statistically analyzed for comparison and correlation. Majority of respondents belonged to lower socioeconomic group and had different health problems. Among 500 drinking water samples only 8.6% were within the WHO limit and only 50.6 % of the total samples were within NDWQS limit. The drinking water of tehsils Sheikhupura and Sharaqpur had higher arsenic as compared to other tehsils (64.25±2.55 µg/L and 61.63 ± 2.73µg/L) respectively and was highest in all hand pump water (71.14± 2.6µg/L). Arsenic concentration in hair was highest in 23-25 years females (1.62±0.10µg/g) and among the residents of tehsil Sheikhupura (1.40±0.12 µg/g) and those using hand pump water (1.31±0.14 µg/g). Similarly the highest mean value of blood arsenic was observed in the age group of 23-25 years (3.2 ±0.23 µg/L) and being highest among respondents of tehsil Sheikhupura. The same trend was noted in male group. Positive correlation (r=1.0) was found between arsenic in drinking water and biological samples with respect to area, age and water sources. In general FSH level in females was within reference range whereas LH was found in lower concentration in some areas. Estradiol was lower in follicular and luteal phase of the respondents from Sharaqpur and Sheikhupura suggesting possible exposure of arsenic. LH and FSH in males were in normal range and testosterone showed variability with reference to age. The results of this study evidently suggest that the presence of arsenic in drinking water is likely to affect general metabolism and its accumulation in biological tissues. This appears to be linked with the exposure of variable magnitude and duration. The results of this study provide enough data for future studies regarding water contamination and health effects also warrant urgency for preventive measures to reduce possible effects.
