Who we are:
An organisation started for a purpose to save soil and increase plantation.
This organisation is created by a group of students who believe that only
youth have the power to make a change. And change will be necessary.
Services offered by NGO:
Plantation:
We send seeds and other plantation equipments to people’s house and
we also guide them about how to plant a seed and how to take care of
their plant. So ,when you will be joining us you will get a kit.
The kit will contain various types of plants, a user manual, and planting
instructions that you must follow according to the instructions given in
your manual.
Soil prevention:
We take care of the plants planted across the nation, and play an important
role in preventing soil erosion. We provide proper guidance to all our
members and interns on how to care for the soil and our Mother Earth.
This NGO has planted more than 50000 plants and trees in the last past
two years and other types of crops .Also his helps farmers to gain
knowledge more about menus and fertilizers to make their farms more
and more green and more and more healthy and they can also produce
the good quality of food the and also contributes on increasing a
sustainable development by increasing the green pea and removing the
plastics from the soil and our surroundings.
Day 1:
So on the first day of our work we were welcomed by Mr. Kshithij
Ahuja hosted the lecture and he guided us about the NGO. How the
NGO work what are the other achievements of the NGO and what are
the future Expectations and planning and what will be our contribution
towards the NGO, how all the interns and aspirants hired are going to
work in the next 30 days so it was a really good session. And after
attending this section I got much more clarity and by the end I am
happy and it was a great opportunity working in this NGO.
After that members of NGO addressed us with their kind words; they
talked about different types of chemicals used from the manufacturing
industries how they are affecting soil, how they are against the
environment, what are the critical things happening here, how the
global warming is impacting on mother Earth, how greenhouse effect is
Affecting, how people are reacting towards it and what are the benefits
whatare the demerits.
Day 2:
Now it was the day 2 and Again we were getting prepare to gain a good
knowledge and be motivated for the rest of our work what we have to do
in the next month so this lecture was been taken by Dr. Ashwin Koshi,
he was the head of HR department of the NGO. He address us with his
kind words he talked about the NGO the team working there how much
hard working and dedicated they are towards our earth and the back
stories of few members that how they join the NGO what were the
background what happened to their life how they were struggling and
hard how the end you had them and now how the NGO is being held by
them what is the precious contribution of the members of NGO for that
auspicious NGO so we were like blessed to get motivated from that
words from Dr. Ashwin Koshi.
I am so proud to be a part of that NGO that I got this opportunity to
work with them for a month as internship and learn manymore things
from there about the soil prevention and sustainable
development a difference about the biodegradable and
nonbiodegradable waste difference about different types of energy
resources that we have to use and inculcate and what are the demerits of
using plastic and bags
and the different things made from plastic and how to avoid it what kind
of practices we need to practice in our daily life so that we are away
from plastic bags and there are many more things and new concepts and
new techniques was being introduced to US so that we can learn them
and also we can spread them in our locality so the as many as people
can get knowledge about this new technique and new ways of living so
that Earth can be saved from this harmful plastics and other chemicals
and we can live a healthy and good life.
He talks about Different techniques like using some kind of cloth bags
instead of plastic bags and the new types of bags have been introduced
in the market are made of papers should use paperbacks but we should
also reduce the use of paper bag because in paper decoration takes
around 30 years and which is the use time so we should also not use the
paper bags but if it is urgency that we can use the paper bags and but the
mainly by default we should use of clothes hacks for getting all our
stuff from the market and this is the best way and the first initial
way to work upon and for our earth.
That was about like whenever we use certain vegetables certain kind of
biodegradable waste we should through it the place where like the
plane Grounds near like there there is good soil so the plants and the
different types of vegetables can grow their and the waste can be
arranged manually and it can prevent of soil from being eroded like
more and more trees and plants and crops grown the oil will be
prevented from being eroded and we should not use the Carbon
monoxide and other chemicals like CO2 producing devices and all that
things so our Ozone Layer will not be depleted and like hence there
will be many many things like acid rain global warming and other
things which are harmful to our environment can be reduced
effectively.
we were being guided that not to keep open vessels or a container like
things in the open area when there is rain because water gets
contaminated after the 24 hours so it's best to like not to use containers
or like the which has big holes of which have big spaces and we are
don't have to throw them in the open area we have to just passed them
to some kind of dustbins or alive there are some areas of the
Government have to pass it to them so water cannot be contaminated to
show them and like there will be a less chance of increasing the
diseases and harmfulness in our environment.
Day 3:
So it was day 3. So we were again guided by the members of NGO. and
today we will talk about different types of manure and different types of
fertilizers used in agriculture and farming and how to reduce the
harmful chemicals in plantations.
So manure is a decomposed form of the dead plants and animals which
is applied to the soil to increase production. It is a natural Form of
fertilizers and is cost-active. The human and animal excreta Is also used
as men the livestock manure is rich in nitrogen, Phosphorus and
potassium.
Manure is highly rich in organic matter and does improve the soil
fertility are better in the long and does not cause any pollution it is
valuable renewable resource can be obtained the different source of
manure are mentioned below :
● Cattle dung urine and slurry from biogas plants.
● Waste from human habitation such as human urine, soil
sludge, sewage and domestic waste.
● Waste from slaughterhouses such as bones meat on and hoof me
fish waste.
● droppings of goat and sheep.
● by products of agriculture industries.
● crop waste.
● weeds, water hyacinth.
Types of manure:
Manual can be grouped as farmyard manure green manure and compost
manure following are the different types of manure used by the
farmers:
Green manure:
Green manure increases the percentage of organic matter in the soil. the
roots of such manure go into the soil this helped in the supression of
weeds and prevention of soil erosion.
Farmyard manure:
farmyard manure improves the soil structure and is used use of
fertilizers in farming. it increases soil capacity to hold more water and
nutrients. it also increases the microbial activity of the soil to improve
its mineral supply and also the plant nutrients.
Compost manure:
It improves the soil structure and water and nutrient holding capacity of
the soil does it increases the nutrient value the health of plant.
Advantages of Manure:
● These are a good source of macronutrients.
● Improves soil fertility.
● Cost-effective
● Reduces soil erosion and leaching.
● Improves the physical properties of the soil and aerates the soil.
● Improves the water and nutrient holding capacity of the soil.
● It can be transported easily.
● Methane gas is evolved as the by-product of manure that can
be used for cooking and heating purposes.
● The crops grown on the land treated with manure
produces healthy crops.
Day 4:
So after learning about menus and organic fertilizers and different types
of chemical fertilizers they told us about how to respect our nature and
how to help to grow and how to help people to realise that what we are
currently doing is not good for our future and nature.
So they taught us about how to reach different types of campaigns, how
to make different types of social events successful how to increase the
audience in such kind of social activities. where they have to participate
And spend their worthy time for our mother earth and environment.
They explained all things to us by giving us a pass examples where to
work for an event summer point where lies the blood donation was being
and about defeat lynx in plants sharing plug a garden and how they make
the event grand success by increasing audience by increasing by making
them aware about the Global Warming and other Types of harmful
effects of the use of different chemical fertilizers and other chemicals
which we don't need to use. they also addresses with the kind words in
with we can make a normal event a grand success realise the value of that
how much important for the family moral values.
Day 5:
On the day 5 , different types of kits were provided to us and they told
us about how to use that get in a regular manner and how to take care
of that by washing it time to time how to use it in the physical form and
how to teach others about it.
After opening that box I found some seeds of mango plants and some
seeds of guava plants so that there was a instruction manual also present
in that and some plugging tools and farming tools were also present so
it was really a nice gift given from NGO to me which I have required
for
my lifetime and after reading that , I learnt about how to use the different
types of farming kits and how to plug the seeds directly in ground so that
they do not get destroyed .
I was literally so happy after getting that get and all the members
address does with the instruction manual and the in everything so nicely
that my interest and my passion got more stronger about stopping the
global warming and increasing more greenery and I started my journey
towards making this Mother Earth more and more greener. So one by
one at picked up every to check that everything is working or not I
check the packets of seed is there are destroyed or not but like all there
was in the best quality and I was so happy that I got a suppository to
help my mother earth for the wonderful area and an opportunity to make
our earth more greener.
So just I drown all the water at the ground and let the soil become wet
for an hour. Bind all the fertilizers and manual as for the instruction
mentioned in the manual and that I took them in the Crown I started
digging the crown and made a big hole where I just posted my all
fertilizers and manure prepared last time and then I put it all the seeds in
the fertilizer. then I gently mixed all the mixture and portrait mode soil
only and then I put a more water on a I left it for one more day. so this
was all about my 16 in my internship and I was so happy that I want to
you towards my mother earth by sowing different types of seeds and
crops in it.
I feel that I have done something breed which I have never done in my
life it gives me a bright feeling an opportunity to serve my nature and
and I just know my one of my levels of life that why my life has been
given to me and my how can I spend it in a fruitful and a productive
way.
Day 7:
So basically Day 7 was a rest day for all of the members of NGO and me
and to watch the seedlings that we have sown on the day before. And we
were given a task Of Learning and making a report of different types of
plants, seeds and fertilizers available in market.
This was a great task because learning by self with the best learning so
we get the knowledge about different types of seedlings and samples
available in the market and how to grow them what are the future
benefits how long did it take to grow it takes thousands of years to grow
And at the evening and at the end of the day there was a small guest
lecture given by Mahesh D about different types of civilizations and
different types of plants and trees different types of forests like how
cultivations happens how people migrate from one place to place how
the different types of world wide projects and b andhow they are in
these with the NGO that the worldwide liver how can help in
contributing towards our mother earth the research and development of
afforestation. Informed us about the different types of world level
events and campaign going on right now in the terms of reducing global
warming, I educating people about saving from motherearth and a
devastating future. Fans how to make this Earth a better place to live for
future once and our kids.
Examples of events going worldwide right now was given by him that
how we started on a small scale level and now we have become such a
big team of green helpers and educators. This was the another
motivation for us to start the small thing and thing about a big future for
our campaign and for our mother earth.
Day 8:
So it was a day 8 and a new morning a new day. So, we were again ready
with our different types of seeds; seeds of mango tree and plant of
Eucalyptus to sown them and hope for a good future and good mangoes
and trees after few years.
It was just like that we are investing of few hours for coming years and
getting real returns day by day for decades. This was again
acknowledgeable activity that we are doing humble and pride thing in
theworld.
So what we did clearly today that I am going to say.
We took the big seeds of mango tree and small plants of eucalyptus as
guided by the manual. Mango seeds so that I can feel the weight in my
hands. Holding the small sampling size of eucalyptus so good help you
giving so I stopped them to the another area near my locality and started
digging the ground and mixing fertilizers and manure in and then I
added the seeds and eucalyptus sampling after that I just water the soil
and Waiting for them to go grow big and big.
Part 1:
Germinating Eucalyptus from Seed:
Chill the seeds. Transfer the seed package to the refrigerator and leave
the seeds there for two months. This is called stratification, and it will
help bring the seeds out of dormancy, and encourage germination.
● Stratification replicates the dormancy period that
happens over winter, so the seeds will come to life again
and germinate when they're removed from the
refrigerator.
Plant the seeds in late winter. Eucalyptus seeds should be sown in pots
indoors several weeks before the last expected frost. In the Northern
Hemisphere, aim to plant in mid-February. In the Southern Hemisphere,
aim to plant in mid-July.
● To find your last expected frost date, check local
government or meteorological websites.
Fill peat pots with potting soil. Use a porous potting soil that has lots
of pearlite for good drainage. It’s also important to use peat pots that
can be transplanted with the seedlings, because eucalyptus doesn’t
respond well to transplanting.
● Growing eucalyptus from seed is the best way to propagate
new plants, because propagating by cuttings is difficult and
the success rate is much lower.
Plant the seeds. Sprinkle a few seeds on top of the potting soil in each
peat pot. Cover each pot with a light dusting of horticultural sand. This
will hold the seeds in position, keep them warm, and keep them moist as
they germinate.
● Don’t use sand from a beach or the backyard, as it could
be contaminated with pathogens that will kill the seeds.
Mist the seeds regularly. As soon as you’ve covered the seeds with
sand, mist them with water to help them settle into the soil. As the seeds
germinate, mist the soil every one to two days to keep the growing
medium evenly moist.
Keep the seeds warm. Move the pots to a warm place, such as a heated
greenhouse or the top of the refrigerator. You can also keep the pots on a
heating pad to keep them warm as they germinate.
Transplanting Seedlings
Choose a sunny location. Eucalyptus requires full sun, and this means
at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight every day. You should also choose
a location that’s several feet (a few meters) from any buildings or
fences, otherwise the fast-growing tree could cause damage to the
nearby structure.
Protect the plant from strong winds. Make sure that the location you
choose shields the plant from strong winds. Eucalyptus is short-rooted,
so it may not withstand wind.
Amend the soil. Till the soil to a depth of 12 inches (30 cm) using a
hand or rototiller. Spread a few inches (several centimeters) of aged
compost over the area and use the tiller to work it into the soil. This will
ensure that the soil is nutrient-rich and well-draining.
Dig holes large enough to accommodate the peat pots. Use a spade or
small shovel to dig holes that are slightly wider and deeper than the
pots. The holes should be spaced at least 8 feet (2.4 m) apart to
accommodate the mature size of the trees.
Plant the seedlings in the ground. Place one peat pot in each hole and
cover the transplants with additional soil. Use your hands to gently pack
the soil around the roots. Water the area thoroughly to help settle the
eucalyptus in the ground.
Part-3
Apply a layer of mulch to the soil. Mulch will help to control the
temperature of the soil, protect the tree from cold, eliminate weeds, and
keep the soil moist. Ideal mulch for eucalyptus is a thick and bulky
organic matter, such as bark or compost.
Keep the soil moist. Eucalypti will tolerate some drought, but they will
thrive better in soil that’s consistently moist. During dry spells, water the
trees once a week.
● For the final two feedings near the end of summer, switch
to a high-potassium fertilizer to help prepare the tree for
winter.
From Day 9 to 14:
So as a days passes by we continue spreading the growing of plants and
seeds be taken care of the seeds of mango trees and eucalyptus
sampling which was on in the ground and which was so much beautiful
and peace giving activity that daily watching the things which you have
grown like it was like growing a child from a birth.
Each day we used to visit the place and take care of the things we then
when the sampling is grew a little details like there was a Seedling from
the seeds then after germination of the seeds we spotted some iron cage
was around it so the all the animals near red light cows and other
animals didn't hurt and damage our plantations and this was also a
necessary step because it will prevent our hard work and all our
sampling from being destroyed.
It was one of the heart ask of assembling all the iron cage around the
plants and the seed sampling because it was made of iron and we need a
lot of efforts to mould it into a perfect shape and and it down below the
earth without damaging our plantations. So basically there is also a
calculation of getting a iron cage from the market by how much the
diameter of the and it should be according to plantations how much
does square shape and area of the per square should be divided into the
cage.
Day 15 to 26:
Something great happened in these days as like the wages continue in
the taking care of seedlings plants and sampling in the recent days and
getting more knowledge about different types of farming agriculture
practices practice in different types of in world and states of India.
how in earlier times people used to move from one place to another as
a migration and how they use to cultivate different types of plantations
and how they created different types of civilizations using nature and
how they learn different types of farming for example terrace farming,
step house, farming green and dry land farming etc.
The rural area plantations and urban area plantations new techniques
changed the life of the performers how they enhance their lifestyles how
they in which themselves and how they helpthemselves to grow in a
small area and how to increase the different types of farming methods.
meanwhile we will learning all these things we continued planting new
trees in our locality and taking care of them and putting cages around
them and making them save from the animals.
And in these days while taking care of our plants and growing new
saplings. some people saw us doing the things and approach that they
were motivated after see us and want to join us. And this was again a
turning point in a journey where we decided to take this small event to a
big campaign where we can invite many people who love nature and
the people were not aware about saving our nature. So started making a
big team of young people and distributed templates of different types of
events like cleaning a garden offering some kind of statue in India
offering some kind of public places like bus stand age on holidays like
Sundays and other holidays so that the people also can join and
contribute with their time towards our mother earth.
The natural and was the summers the heat of the sun as he was we
have to do certain times we have to do things in the hot summer so
it was quite irritating and I we felt so lazy at the time so it was
hard time for us to do things but whatever the condition was we
want to because that thing has become a passion we want to serve
our mother earth. so just be over tackled this situation by taking
cold water, Cold butter milk and other liquid substances to which
stand in summers.
I joined the NGO and started working with it, so the main
concept was the growing of plants and preventing soil erosion
and removing the unwanted ways like plastics and rubber from
our environment and make our surrounding more involved
cleaner so we were addressed by the director and chancellor and
other members of the NGO.
Started using their kits and started planting the seeds and small
sampling firstly near to our house and them to the local places of
my city my all friends joined me in the work. ok and after seeing
us working so hard other people also turned out and approved us
regarding had who were interested helping the mother Earth in
becoming more clean and beautiful.
So we started our planting more trees arranging the protective
measures like pesticides and I am kids around them to protect
them from animals and small insects and other microbial insects. it
was such a pleasure feeling to do this work with my friends and I
slowly people also joined us, so we thought of creating a
successful event regarding the event saving the mother earth and
everything more prevent soil erosion.
So we come down with the event in which like all the interested
members and peoples who want to serve their mother earth and
the city so we arranged small event in which that all people
gathered and cleaned the public parks and bus stations and also
planted seeds and cycling there and were given some tasks to meet
economy assemblies for a given period of time and to arrange
preventive methods plants and seeds.
