University of Agricultural Sciences, Bengaluru

University of Agricultural Sciences Bangalore, a premier institution of agricultural education and research in the country, began as a small agricultural research farm in 1899 on 30 acres of land donated by Her Excellency Maharani Kempa Nanjammanni Vani Vilasa Sannidhiyavaru, the Regent of Mysore and appointed Dr. Lehmann, German Scientist to initiate research on soil crop response with a Laboratory in the Directorate of Agriculture. Later under the initiative of the Dewan of Mysore Sir M. Vishweshwaraiah, the Mysore Agriculture Residential School was established in 1913 at Hebbal which offered Licentiate in Agriculture and later offered a diploma programme in agriculture during 1920. The School was upgraded to Agriculture Collegein 1946 which offered four year degree programs in Agriculture. The Government of Mysore headed by Sri. S. Nijalingappa, the then Chief Minister, established the University of Agricultural Sciences on the pattern of Land Grant College system of USA and the University of Agricultural Sciences Act No. 22 was passed in Legislative Assembly in 1963. Dr. Zakir Hussain, the Vice President of India inaugurated the University on 21st August 1964.

    PLANNING FOR REGIONAL WASTE WATER SYSTEMS: ITS RELATIONSHIP TO LAND USE AND SOCIAL STRUCTURE
    (UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES, BANGALORE, 1973) ANGOTTI, THOMAS R; GREENBERG, MICHAEL
    An analysis is made of planning for regional waste water systems in the New Jersey portion of the New York Metropolitan Region, with speciol attention given to the Hackensack drainage basin (which also includes a portion of Rockland County, Now York) and the Bergen County Sewerage Authority. Also included are case studies covering the New Jersey portion of the Philadelphia Metropolitan Region, the proposed Tocks Island and Deepwater projects, and the North Branch of the Raritan River. It was found that decision making for waste water planning for these areas is not truly regional in scope in that it is based on political boundaries rather than those of a major drainage basin and/or metropolitan area. Nor is it comprehensive in that it fails to involve the coordination of various elements and functions, such as water supply and land use planning, and does not serve the public interest. Finally, the process of planning is found to be incremental rather than rational, in that it docs not tonal to involvo tho c:Jtnbli:.Jhmont of gonzo, nltorn~tivo moons to attain tho gonln, end policies to effect unto goal attuinmont. A largo-scnlo regional wosto wntor oystom covering tho groator portion of o mnjor droinngo bnsin (tho Bereon Councy Seworngo Authority) was compared to a local smnll-scnle system serving a sub-bnnin (tho North West Borgen Gounty Sewerage Authority). It was found thnt tho lurge-scale system which has boon operating for over twenty years, is no more effective than the amnll-scalo system in improving stream quality and augmenting stream use. The large-scale system mny have helped maintain water quality levels in the low-density affluent communities at the basin's headwaters, but there has been no appreciable improvement in water quality for most of the people served by the system in the downstream areas. While tho large-scale system may offer lower initial capital costs and lower annual operating costs, it is no more effective in attaining water quality goals, and may even be less effective in the longrange. The relationship between waste water systems and land development was examined, including residential, industrial and open space land uses. It was found that installation of the large-scale regional system followed rather than preceded increases in population and density; also, the amount of open space available for water-based recreaticn did not increase as a result of the regional system. Finally, induntrinl wutor u~or3, for tho moot pnrt, did not m:1ko use of tho \-(.lute w~1tor :;y:;toM, refuting tho notion thut tho system necoonnrily contributes to industrial development opportunities. While existing lnrgo-scole systems mny not necessarily promote development, in at least ono case it was found that exclusion of a proposed regional system in favor of small-scale local systems wus effected os a means of restricting future lond development. Tho proposal for o regional system was defeated by local comities in an effort to maintain low-density residential pbtterns and exclude industry; these same communities were found to have exclusionary zoning practices. In general, it was found that waste water planning decisions tend to strengthen the unequal distribution of wealth, reinforce divisions in class structure, and maintain exclusionary residential patterns. Tho costs of pollution control vary considerohly from one area to the next, and are allocated without re
