About Conference
2nd International Conference on Agriculture, Chemical,
Environment and Water Resource management
(ICACEW-2023)
During the worldwide lockdown due to COVID 19 pandemic, a lot of important
activities have come to a halt. However, when we look at the brighter side, all of
us have more time for adding to our knowledge and insights.
With this aim, to keep contributing to learning and motivation International
research and development Center for publication is going to organize a two-day
International Conference with the title “2nd International Conference
onAgriculture, Chemical, Environment and Water Resource management
(ICACEW-2023)” on Jul 08-09, 2023 through hybrid mode.
We hope, this online mode of the conference in COVID-19 pandemic will be an
appreciable step in promoting the research activities and new information
between researchers, developers, students, academicians and practitioners
working in and around the world by keeping the social distance in view to stop
the spread of COVID-19 disease. This conference aims is to present the current
researches being carried out in the field of social science and education
development around the globe.
Prospective authors from academia as well as industry are invited to submit their
abstracts that illustrate original/unpublished works and industrial applications
describing advances and significant innovations in the field.

Abstract— Chilli (Capsicum annum L.) is an important spice and vegetable crop,
commercially grown in India throughout the year. Chilli plant is susceptible to various insect
and mite pests of which yellow mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks), (Tersonemidae:
Acarina) is most predominant. The mites attack young apical leaves, flower buds and cause
curling and crumpling of young developing plant parts resulting shedding of flower buds,
flowers and developing fruits. The incidence of this mite population always remained higher
on upper canopy of the plant followed by middle canopy and lower canopy. Mites were most
densely populated in the young and new leaves of chilli plant on upper canopy. So sprays
should be carefully taken on the upper canopy. Among the seven treatments evaluated
microbial toxin- avermectin resulted in the best suppression of mite population (86.32%
suppression), closely followed by chemical insecticide, fenazaquin (73.07%) and mixed
formulation of botanical pesticide, azadirachtin with botanical extract, Spilenthes (70.99%).
The botanicals, Spilanthes paniculata floral parts and garlic were extracted in methanol. Four
sprays at 10 day intervals were made. Mite population was recorded 3, 6 and 9 days after
each spraying. Avermectin and mixture of azadirachtin with botanical extracts gave moderate
to higher mite suppression (more than 64% suppression). Considering moderate to higher
efficacy as well as its low toxicity to natural enemies and minimum impact on human health
microbial toxin, botanical insecticides, botanical extracts can be incorporated in future
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and organic farming. Azadirachtin individually did not
produce higher results but when mixed with botanical extracts gave higher results of mite
control recording more than 64 % suppression. This treatment also is recommended for
general farmers use.

Abstract— The general objective of this study is to explore the representation of mourning
and to find out the causes of mourning in the character in the selected Amharic novel
(concerning the novel Yäqənat Zār (“Zār of Jealousy” by Sisay Nigusu). Specifically, this
study aims to achieve the following specific objectives:
1. To describe the representation of mourning in the selected novel.
2. To examine the impact of mourning feelings in the selected novel.
This study is classified according to genre, topic, theoretical framework, and amount of text.
It employs a qualitative methodology for psychoanalytic literary critique. So, using a
theoretical framework created by Freud, Lacan, Klein's theory of object relations, and other
theorists, a critical examination of theme concerns associated with mourning is conducted.
The study's conceptual and general focus will be on looking at how meta-psychological ideas
(Mourning) are portrayed in the novel Yäqənat Zār (“Zār of Jealousy). Methodologically, it
will employ an Interpretivism research paradigm. The study falls under the general category
of qualitative research, descriptive and analytical design.
This study will have its
contribution as it applies a psychoanalytic method in the analysis of literary works
specifically novels. It explained how someone might experience melancholy and sadness
after losing a loved one. It uses a qualitative method to analyse psychoanalytic literature. So,
using a theoretical framework derived from psychoanalytic theory, notably the theory of
mourning and melancholia and various grief and attachment theories developed by different
theorists, a critical examination of theme concerns associated to mourning is conducted.
Additionally, it made use of a descriptive and analytical study approach as well as
interpretivism. The study's conclusion should be that the major characters experienced grief,
as evidenced by their altered behaviour, self-blame, death wishes, and paralysis. The abrupt
deaths of her boyfriend, her aunt, and other family members as well as the responsibility that
the second subject, Semayhen, placed on himself for marrying his wife and wanting to
murder her, were also discovered to be the causes of their melancholia. Semayneh, the main
character, also experiences a sense of loss, and at the end, he has passed away. As a result, it

is suggested that more studies be done using a conceptual framework based on the research's
findings. The abrupt deaths of her boyfriend, her aunt, and other family members as well as
the responsibility that the second subject, Semayhen, placed on himself for marrying his wife
and wanting to murder her, were also discovered to be the causes of their melancholia.
Semayneh, the main character, also experiences a sense of loss, and at the conclusion, he has
passed away. Based on the study's findings, it is suggested that more research be conducted
on grief conceptually using other theoretical frameworks and other literary genres in Amharic
literature.
