In the Indian context, the Second Green Revolution is a change in agricultural production widely thought necessary to feed and sustain the growing population on Earth and promote inclusive growth. As per the Eleventh Plan document, the Second Green Revolution aims to meet the problems of small and marginal farmers for providing income security to a large section of rural households and treating them as partners of development instead of a mere beneficiary of some government schemes or programme.

The kidneys are bean-shaped organs that serve several excretory roles apart from the essential regulatory roles in mammals. They remove from the blood the nitrogenous wastes such as urea, as well as salts and excess water, and excrete them in the form of urine. In producing urine, the kidneys excrete nitrogenous wastes such as urea and ammonium.

The Temporal Lobes, located on each side of the head above the ears, control hearing and are related to smell, taste and short-term memory (especially visual and verbal). It is involved in processing sensory input into derived meanings for the appropriate retention of visual memory, language comprehension, and emotion association.

The transport of water, nutrients and other substances from one part of a plant to another is called translocation. While, phloem transports synthesized food from the leaves to the rest of the plant body; water and minerals are transported from the roots upwards through the xylem tubes.

The nitrogen-fixing capability of Azolla has led to it being widely used as a biofertiliser for increasing the productivity of rice fields. When rice paddies are flooded in the spring, they can be inoculated with Azolla, which then quickly multiplies to cover the water, suppressing weeds. The rotting plant material releases nitrogen to the rice plants, increasing the rice yield equivalent to that produced by 30-60 kg N/ha.
