The pericarp and the shell of soap-nut fruits have been chemically analysed. The pericarp has been found to contain water solubles as high as 74.20% while shells have been found to be rich in crude fibre. The kernels on expulsion yielded 24.0% and on solvent extraction 38% of the oil. Samples of soap were prepared using this oil. The exhausted cake was used as a filler in the soap preparation. The pericarp powder and the samples of soap prepared were found to have good cleaning properties.

The studies have been made to explore the possible commercial utilization of Sap I wood of Khair. The Sap wood was analysed for its major chemical constituents and the optimum conditions to isolate cellulose suitable for cellulose based industries have been described. The chemical composition of the cellulose and its fibre dimensions have been determined. The experiments were undertaken to prepare cellulose gum and the data on its evaluation are presented in the article.- Studies on the Utilization of Spent Heartwood of Acacia catechu (Khair)

These studies were made to explore the possible commercial utilization of the exhausted heartwood of Acacia catechu. The exhausted heartwood (residue left after extraction of katha aud cutch) is a waste material of the katha industry. The exhausted heartwood was analysed for its major chemical constituents and the optimum conditions to isolate cellulose suitable for cellulose based industries, from exhausted heartwood alone and from the mixture of exhausted heart and sap wood, have been described. Experiments were also undertaken to prepare cellulose gum and the data on its evaluation is incorporated in the article.- Farmer-Friendly Technique for Multiplication of Bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris)

Bambusa vulgaris was multiplied by burying whole culms during 2014 and 2015 at the Research Farm of ICAR-Central Agroforestry Research Institute, Jhansi. Two-year-old bamboo culms produced higher number (165) of shoots than 1-year (114) and 3-year-old culms (57). The culm planting method resulted in prolific ischolar_maining pattern during monsoon season, and on an average 5.7 ischolar_mained plants were obtained from every alternate node. Rooted sprouts were separated from each productive node along with fibrous ischolar_mains attached to it and were planted in polythene bags as new plantlets. This method of planting was found impressive for developing live bamboo fence and producing a large number of plants from scarce planting material. This technique promises a large number of planting material and readily acceptable technology to the farmers.Keywords
