CAMPUS HORTICULTURAL WASTE MANAGEMENT
●
It recycles the wastes without sending it to the landfills, thereby bringing
down the emissions of green gas as well as leachate production.
●
This is done by composting. The main aim of composting is to Reduce,
Reuse and Recycle the waste.
●
This way the volume in landfills will be reduced, water and air pollution
can be reduced as well as creation of green house gases can also be
brought down.
COMPOSTING
●
●
●
A Natural bio-degradation process
Time-consuming but helps in soil fertility
Nutrient-rich food for the plants
Effects of Compost
on Soil Physical
Properties
Soil structure has a vital role
in different soil processes .
Adding compost to soils
recovers their structure that
allows free gas and water
transfer, facilitates soil
management for ploughing
or seeding and enhances
seed germination and root
growth, as well as reduces
the risk of erosion,
reduces water evaporation,
regulates moisture and
improves drainage.
REJUVENATION OF OLD TREES
Rejuvenation means restoring vitality
and freshness of plants
What affect old trees
Infestation
Improper planting
Planting material
Faulty site
Adverse weather conditions
Attack of pest and pathogen
Objective of rejuvenation
Enhance the productivity of old fruit
Provide quality planting material to farmer at reasonable to
increase yield per capital
Make senile productive and juvenile
Enhance the profitability
Conservation of old progeny or species
Techniques of rejuvenation
Pruning:
Remove dead ,damaged ,disease and interlacerating braches
Restored bark height of 2m
Helps to invigorating trees
Manuring:
timely manuring helps to rejventating the plants
The major required nutrients especially N,P,K
Thinning of shoots shoots:
aeration , penetration of light,spacing etc are not proper to deal the situation oly selected no.of
shoot may be allowed to grow on plants
4-5 shoots
healthy , vigorous,well sprouted and well spaced shoots are retained to constitutes framework
of rejuvenation
Supplement feeding: seeds are plant near the trunk of old tree , once they attain 1 meter height
the top portion will be cut and at the same time old tree bark will be cut
The top portion will be inserted inside the bark and after some time it will be united and be
part of the old bark by this nutrients will be transfered
Control of devitalizing agents
Pest an disease act as mainly devitalizing agent of plants.
Incidence of bark eating ,caterpillar, trunk borer, leaf eating caterpillar pest etc
Regular monitoring and early detection of pests with the help of Pest Calendar and identifying
abundance level to take appropriate measures.
Weed clearing, disposal of infested seedlings, hand picking or net collection of pests and
destruction, pruning of affected areas.
IMPROVE OF GROUND WATER
By planting of evergreen trees in university which leads to transpiration that can be leads
to rain and ground water can be restored and by huge foliage trees leads to capture more
rain water and through barks it leads for ground water recharge
How Do Plants Help To Reduce Environmental Pollution
●

●
●
●
●
●
In the current climate, we are constantly bombarded by all sides about
pollution reducing, our environmental impact and protecting our environment.
Sometimes it can be overwhelming to know where to start! In addition to
our regular duties of reducing recycling and recycling, did you think of planting
trees?
We plant trees primarily for their beauty and to provide shade,
but by planting and caring for trees, you help to improve your environment,
reduce pollution, lower energy costs. How?
They reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the air, increase oxygen and help
to remove toxins. Not only do they provide nutrients for the entire food chain as
well as the earth itself,
Trees can clean the air and remove toxic airborne particles and gaseous
pollutants. Toxins such as nitrogen oxides, ammonia and sulphur dioxide from
their leaves, bark and roots
Trees planted in an urban environment can not only mitigate the warming
impact of concrete and buildings on the atmosphere, they have also been
shown to clean the air of pollutants and particulates generated by traffic that
are harmful to us. .
PRINCIPLES OF CAMPUS LANDSCAPING
●
●

Focal / Interest plantings
Reinforcement of Pedestrian access ways
Retention of unique or particularly attractive natural features
Sensitively located seating and bench/table arrangements to
enhance areas for study, eating and conversation.
Consideration for noise in the outdoors
COMPOSTING :
Soil structure has a vital role in different soil processes . Adding compost to soils recovers their
structure that allows free gas and water transfer, facilitates soil management for ploughing
or seeding and enhances seed germination and root growth, as well as reduces the risk of
erosion,
reduces water evaporation, regulates moisture and improves drainage.
CAMPUS LANDSCAPING STRATEGIES :
●
●
●
●
●
●
●
Proper landscape placements & deflection techniques help to channel
prevailing winds and thus increasing the air movement.
Glare & heat absorption can be reduced by light-colored materials that are paved around
the building.
Other strategies which shall be adopted to minimize the discomfort occurred
due to hot and humid climatic conditions like buildings should be separated with
large, free spaces between them.
This allows airflow which provides ventilation for cooling and a hygienic environment.
Certain species of trees (e.g. rain trees) form an extraordinary outdoor space by creating a
canopy effect.
They should not be planted too far from each other, so that the crowns form a wide hall-like
space, creating a comfortable microclimate.
An un-shaded pavement should be avoided as far as possible and air should not be
allowed to pass over such hot surfaces before reaching buildings.
High bushes, however, should be avoided near buildings because the space between the
ground vegetation and the high crowns of the trees should remain open, providing free
access for the wind at the level of the living spaces.
In buildings it is possible to have vines/creeper covered trellises which
provides shading in summer, allows diffused sunlight.
RRRR-REDUCE,REUSE,RECYCLE,RESTORE
Waste management include
collection, transport, processing or
disposal, managing and monitoring
of waste materials. The principles
to waste management are:
RESTORE
RECYCLING OF LEAVES
Mow them and leave
them where they lie.
Shred them and
use as mulch
Shred them and
till into the soil
Compost them,
shredding them first
for the best result
