Earthquake in Assam and north Bengal in IndiaOn April 28, 2021, a 6.4 Richter scale earthquake affected the Sonitpur district of Assam, the tremors of which were felt in north Bengal and other parts of North-East India, as reported by the National Centre for Seismology1. Six more tremors followed the first shake 2. There were reports of widespread damage to buildings and other structures from across Assam, mostly in the central and western towns of Tezpur, Nagaon, Guwahati, Mangaldoi, Dhekiajuli, and Morigaon3. Again on May 3rd, 2021, an earthquake was felt in the Sonitpur district of Assam with a 3.7 magnitude on the Richter scale4. Assam disaster management authority reported that 10 people from 4 districts suffered physical injuries since the first attack on April 28, 2021, and some more time will be needed to know about the actual amount of damage that had taken place5. According to the National Centre for Seismology, the area affected by the earthquake is seismically very active and falls in the highest seismic hazard zone where the Indian tectonic plate subducts with the Eurasian plate because of which there are high chances of future quakes as well6.

Plot Design

Light textured acid soil with conventional culture of growing crops faces poor germination due low moisture retention with infrequently quandaries like restricted activity of salutary soil micro-organisms and ultimately poor yield. To combat these soil health problems and to ameliorate the overall productivity of northern Bengal region an experiment was done at Uttar Banga Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Pundibari, Cooch Behar, with split-split plot design having two main-plot and two subplot mulching treatments and four sub-sub plot nutrient management treatments. The observations with conservation techniques on three year studies overcome the quandaries and showed positive cognation between soil moisture and germination. Difficulty with establishment of maize and reduced yield was additionally solved with soil health benefits.
