Preparation of baseline document on fly ash utilization and safe management in agriculture and waste land development

28 Sep 2010 26 May 2013
The project aims to prepare a baseline document for fly ash utilization/ safe management in agriculture and waste land development. In order to learn to use fly ash more efficiently and effectively, information comprising current scenarios in R&D, application, forthcoming technologies must be documented in a way that makes them readily accessible to everyone in the field - industries, academia, governments, etc both in regional and global perspectives. Such information will help in prediction, set goals and then make strategies/plans to achieve defined goal through development of human resources and adequate infrastructures.
This baseline document will act as a knowledge pool on use and safe management of fly ash in agriculture, floriculture, forestry, reclamation of waste & degraded lands, use in arid and semi arid zone cultivations. In view of this, the present proposal entitled "Preparation of baseline document for fly ash utilization/safe management in agriculture and waste land development" is submitted to DST for grants-in-aid funding for preparation of baseline document in the area of Agriculture and waste land development comprising national and international scenarios.
