Three species of Trichoderma viz., Trichoderma viride, Trichoderma harzianumand Trichoderma konengii have been isolated from the soil samples collected from forest sites in higher altitudes of Northern Hilly Zones of Chhattisgarh in Mainpat, Dist-Surguja, Chhattisgarh. The species could grow between 4 to 420 C temperatures and 3 to 13 pH on agar plates, the optimum requirement being 260 C and 5.5 Ph, respectively. Further incubation of the agar plates showing normal growth of Trichoderma species at 40C, induced heavy sporulation in three weeks of time. Induction of sporulation on exposure to low temperature appeared to be a strategy for survival of these species in extreme cold environment experiencing sub zero temperatures. Antifungal activities were demonstrated between Trichoderma species and phytopathogenic fungi in dual cultures. The antifungal metabolites produced by Trichoderma species, diffusible as well as volatile, caused abnormalities in fungal structures of pathogenic fungi. Plant growth promotion abilities of Trichoderma species was also demonstrated through a plant based bioassay in greenhouse. The study is important for documentation of microbial diversity of Northern Hilly Zones of Chhattisgarh in Mainpat, Dist-Surguja, Chhattisgarh and determination of the associated biotechnological applicationsKeywords

Sustainable agricultural development requires a systematic effort towards the planning of land use activities in the most appropriate way, apart from several other institutional and policy programmed initiative. Remote sensing can provide valuable and timely information about natural resources and environment as an important basis for sustainable development. Geographic information systems (GIS) can provide effective tools for decision makers. Both RS and GIS techniques are important geometric tools which are extensively utilized in developed countries. This technology is also used for land use planning and soil mapping. Modern tools such as satellite remote sensing and geographical information system (GIS) have been providing newer dimensions to effectively monitor and manage land uses in an integrated manner for agricultural characterization. Remote sensor and G.I.S. is an excellent tool that is increasingly important in the detection, description, quantification and monitoring environmental changes is remote sensing, which, in combination with geographic information systems and fieldwork, is an effective management tool.

In recent years the mushroom technology has traveled far a head. The domestication of various mushroom species has been tried globally. Many of which are now commercially cultivated for food as well as medicinal purposes for an amateur and professional cultivator. The production of mushroom has become important factor, which does not promote the growers. The important priority of profession is to maximize the production of mushroom by using various techniques. Extract of certain weeds, viz., Argemone maxicana, Cannabis sativa, Ageratum conyzoides, Parthenium hysterophorus and Calotropis procera were tested for better production of oyster mushroom Pleurotus Florida. Among these Parthenium hysterophorus (977 g, 97.7%), Cannabis sativa (882 g, 88.2%), Ageratum conyzoides (860 g, 86.0%) extract were proved most significant in terms of yield and biological efficiency of mushroom.Keywords
