Climate change, natural disasters and agriculture are closely
related from the perspective of food security. Present study has
tried to show the inter dependencies between climatic factors and
factors related with easy access to food in south-west region of
Bangladesh. This study also tried to figure out the coastal
agricultural patterns and problems with the changes of climate and
increasing disaster in Bangladesh. In the study it is observed that
south-western part of the country is severely affected by storms
and salinity. Most of the people of the study area are related with
agricultural activities for their income. Incomes of the people of
the study area and related availability of food, water, shelter
have been analyzed in this study. Total loss caused by the
disaster, positively related with income loss and it makes disaster
exposure vulnerability. Finally the study showed that frequent
natural disasters are the general cause of climate change.
Disasters are the cause for the reduction in income and
agricultural productivity and finally reduce their food
availability.
This study enhances the awareness of stakeholders about the
technological development in financial institutions and its role to
improve performance & growth of banking sector. This study also
creates understanding about Interest Rate Spread (IRS), which is a
prominent indicator of efficiency of the banking sector. IRS, in an
economy, has crucial implication for the growth and development, as
numerous authors suggest a critical link between efficient
intermediate and economic growth. Efficient intermediation benefits
the real economy by allowing higher expected return for saver and
providing more opportunity by cheep investible fund. This study
measures the impact of technological development along with other
traditional variables on IRS. The result reveals that
implementation/adoption of new technology has significant role in
IRS. This study also provides guidance to the stakeholders for the
improvement of banking sector in Pakistan.
Thunbergia grandiflora(Acanthaceae) has been investigated for
isolation of its secondary metabolites and evaluation of biological
activities of the crude extractive. One compound had been isolated,
which was identified by extensive analyses of resolution NMR
spectral data. The powdered leaf of T. grandiflora was extracted
separately with methanol. The solid extract was then subjected to
vacuum liquid chromatography (VLC). Repeated chromatographic
separation and purification the leaves of Thunbergia grandiflora
afforded one flavonoid named 5 hydroxy-4',6,7- trimethoxy flavone,
C18H16O6. The Methanolic crude extract of Thunbergia grandiflora
showed moderate analgesic activity. Out of all the samples only
chloroform fraction methanolic crude extract were appeared mild
potent in terms of both zone of inhibition & spectrum of
activity against some gram positive, gram negative bacteria and
fungi. In antidiarrhoeal test and brine shrimp lethality bioassay,
hexane, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform and aqueous fractions
exhibited insignificant activities whereas Carbon tetra chloride
fraction showed some hypoglycemic effect at a dose of 300 mg/kg
body weight compared to control group.
Investment is the key issue for economic development in any
developing economy. The study makes effort to explore the impact of
different factors on investment in Bangladesh. It also examines the
climate which is dramatically changing over time in developing
world and so, assessing the climate for investment is inevitable.
In this study, we have tried to show the interdependencies between
macroeconomic factors and total investment in Bangladesh and also
have identified the performance of public and private sector growth
for several years. It has considered the performance and activities
of government and non government institutions. Government
inefficiency and corruption, structural adjustment and political
unrest, GDP growth, inflation, trade openness, institutional
policies and facilities are the considerable factors of the study
that affect investment climate positively or negatively. Finally
this study shows that investment climate largely depend on economic
and non economic factors though available investible fund.
