Teaching is a very rewarding profession but it has its stressful elements too. Inspections, assessments, reports, workshops are all potentially stressful areas. The purpose of the present study was to measure the stress of Elementary teachers. The questionnaire was consisted on different sections; the factors of stress for the teachers, effects of stress and techinques which are used by the teachers to relieve their stress. After the analysis of data, results showed that the stress factor decreased the teachers' efficiency. The most stressful item for the teachers was students' less attention in English learning.The other causes were pronunciation and grammar problems, lack of vocabulary, lesson plannig, work sheets and training etc. The most common effects of stress on teachers were 'fast heart beat', 'headache' and 'exhausted' respectively. Stress relief items used by the teachers were 'saying prayer', 'reading newspapers' and 'talking to friends & family members' respectively. Stress should be decreased with proper guidance, training, workshops relating English teaching, disciplines and full attention of the teachers to English language and their profession.

Randomized response technique has decades old history. Warner (1965) is the founder of this technique. Block total response technique is one of these methods that were initially proposed by Smith et al. (1974). Raghavarao and Federer (1979) used the theory of balanced incomplete block designs to determine the structure of the questionnaires in their block total response technique (symmetric designs). Smith and Street (2003) determined the best designs in terms of minimum variance; used to estimate the proportions of 3 to 6 sensitive questions using the block total response procedure given a maximum total number of 13 questions. In this study, some new designs are explored for 3 to 6 sensitive questions given a maximum total number of 13 questions while extending the work of Smith and Street (2003) to estimate the proportion of population for 3 to 10 sensitive questions given a maximum total number of 25 questions. The proposed design for six sensitive questions has smaller variance than variance obtained from the un-matched count technique of Dalton et al. (1994).

Wheat production in Pakistan can be divided into three distinct periods: 1947-65, 1966-76 & 1976- todate. Wheat production increased by 647% from 1948 to 2006 whereas area increased by 210% in this period. Wheat worth of Rs. 220 b is produced year-1, where in one percent gain/loss in wheat production would be equal to Rs. 2.20 b. During the last 11 years (1999-2009), production varied from 18.223 to 23.40 m t with average yield of 2262 to 2585 Kg ha- 1. Wheat production is prime objective in agri. policies; contributes 13.8% to the value added products in agri.& 3.2% to the GDP. The wheat in arid zones often suffers a serious moisture stress throughout its life cycle. Wheat yield improvement in the rainfed areas would be the basis for eliminating hunger and to cope with demands of population and indirectly upgrade the socio-economic status of the farming community. The book in hand provides baseline information on stability, adaptability and genetic gain in wheat. It can furnish useful guide line for wheat breeders, policy makers, agricultural graduates and should be in every agriculture library.

Six genotypes of Tea Camellia sinensis L. i.e., Indonesian, Sri Lankan, Ruopi, Qi men, Chuye & Japanese were tested at NTRI during 2008, for 8 qualitative & 12 quantitative characters. Germplasm was classified into three clusters based on qualitative traits analysis using wards method.This indicates the trait homology between Indonesian & Qi Men for Leaf shape, leaf margin, leaf lower surface, leaf upper surface, shoot color,& posture of leaf base. The linkage distance of their homology is 1.4 LD. The highest value for Veins pairs per leaf showed by Indonesian (13.60), followed by Qi men (12.08).Lowest value of Internodes distances showed by Ruopi (3.6cm), followed by Qi men (3.7 cm).Min Value of branch angle to stem showed by Qimen 35 followed by Japanese i.e. 38 . Qi men & Sri Lankan showed the mean number of Leaves at shoot (2.4).It is concluded that genotype Qi men remain ideal for desired quantitative traits, e. g vein pair & numbers of leaves at shoot, internodes distances & ideal branch angle. This morphogenetic distinctiveness recommends that Qi men is well suited in the climatic condition of Pakistan for the production of tea.

This book provides the fundamental knowledge on Pest- Host Interactions in Integrated Pest Management of Stored Product Pest, Cigarette Beetle (Lasioderma serricorne). It provides training material for food / feed material industries and extremely valuable information for tobacco companies, food organizations, researchers, university students and technicians engaged in studies and control of stored product pests and therefore should be in each agricultural library. This book discusses the fundamentals of Stored-product pest management needs to be considered in planning, implementation, and evaluation of a successful pest management program. With recent regulatory changes, customer's concern about pesticide residues in tobacco and other foods, and companies embracing IPM and alternative approaches for Stored Product Pest Management, this book is timely developed. It provides the base-line information of IPM like pest-host interactions responsible for susceptibility and resistance responses of Cigarette Beetle (Lasioderma serricorne).

Pakistan is facing tremendous shortage of edible oils. The domestic edible oil production does't meet the need of the country. The total availability of edible oils was 2.381 million tons in 2007-08. Local production stood at 0.833 million tons, which accounted for 30.4 percent of the total availability while the remaining 69.6 percent was made available through imports at the cost of Rs. 71.882 billion. In this way, edible oil stood at the top in the import of food group and on number second after petroleum group in the total import. This huge drain on our hard-earned foreign exchange resources is a great challenge for our planners, agricultural scientists and extension workers. Any attempt to help in amelioration of this worsening situation is the need of the day. The traditional or conventional oilseed crops are rapeseed/mustard, sesame and groundnut, while non-traditional oilseed crops are sunflower, soybean and safflower. Among these crops rapeseed/mustard and sunflower have assumed special position in the agriculture economy of Pakistan. Much of the research efforts have been directed towards the improvement of these oilseed crops.

Ephedra nebrodensis, a source of ephedrine used in orthodox medicine to treat bronchial asthma, high fever and as a heart stimulant. Some species are over exploited while many others are under exploited. The present study area represents unique and enormous diversity of medicinal and aromatic plants (MAP) within a relatively small geographic area due to variation in topography, altitude and climate. The MAP species have supported livelihood of many people in the area. They are being collected for export both to national and international markets. The high dependency of rural people on MAP for subsistence and unsustainable harvesting practices has resulted over exploitation of resources in different areas of the country. The study also revealed that the availability of important MAP species is decreasing and the number of rare and threatened species among the MAPs is increasing. Recommendations are, therefore, given in the spheres of training in identification, sustainable collection, value addition, trade monitoring and cooperative system of marketing.

Groundnut being arid agriculture crop is facing serious pod yield reducing threats. The global warming further deteriorates this menace and now drought emerges as major limiting factor in groundnut yield maximization. In this study different genotypes were evaluated at three different Agro-Eclogical Zones to identy high pod yielding and adopted groundnut genotype(s) for commercial cultivation. The book in hand certainly provides base-line information and guiding principles for groundnut researchers, planners, students, progressive growers and organizations. Therefore, it should be in each library.
