Variation in atmospheric air ion and its index of pollution during morning time (06:00 to 08:00 IST) in the sugarcane area at rural station Bhilawadi (16.5oN, 74.2oE)

Abstract

The present paper reports the diurnal variation in +ve and −ve air ion concentration and pollution index in a sugarcane field [genus: Saccharum spp., variety: CO86032 (NAYANA)] in the vegetation area situated at rural station Bhilawadi (16.5°N, 74.2°E), India. It is a hybrid variety of CO62108 and CO671. The outcomes introduced in this investigation propose that the open ecological air or particularly the sugarcane zone shows enormous convergence of −ve air ions which are basic for human wellbeing. It is due to ionisation, photosynthesis, transpiration and radon exhalation process by sugarcane. The results presented in this study suggest that the open environmental air or especially the sugarcane area exhibits large concentrations of −ve air ions which are essential for human health. Though all living beings interact with the environment, only human beings have less interaction with the environment, so attempts should be made to use natural resources to have better health.
