1) IFFCO:
Indian Farmers Fertiliser Co-operative Limited (IFFCO) was registered on November 3, 1967 as a Multi-unit Co-operative Society. The Society is primarily engaged in production and distribution of fertilisers. It is a unique venture in which the farmers of the country through their own co operative societies created this new institution to safeguard their interests. (IFFCO 2013)
Plants owned by IFFCO:
• Kalol Unit (Ammonia - Urea complex) in the state of Gujarat in 1975.
• Kandla Unit (NPK/DAP plant) in the state of Gujarat in 1975.
• Phulpur Unit (Ammonia - urea complex) in the state of Uttar Pradesh in 1981.
• Aonla Unit (Ammonia - Urea unit) in 1988.
• Paradeep Unit (NPK/DAP and Phosphoric Acid Fertiliser unit)

It has a strategically important position at the mouth of the Persian Gulf. It is bordered by the United Arab Emirates to the northwest, Saudi Arabia to the west and Yemen to the southwest and also shares marine border with Iran. The oil reserves are largest in Oman and that makes Oman stand 24th in the World for its reserves of oil. The economy that is why is dependent on Oil extraction and refining it, but the government has tried to diversify the economic sector including farming, tourism and others.

In conclusion, Oil impacted social change over time, which helped us grow as a society. If you took my proposal into consideration I would really appreciate it. My proposal is going to have all of the factors of Oil and how oil has change our state. After reading the documents that you have given me I was able to answer question “What story should be told”.

Ice-Fili has also followed the strategy of sourcing most of its supplies from domestic market and hence in the short run it is relatively immune to imports and hence any negative international events. Over past few years, Ice-Fili has invested significantly in upgrading the machinery such that about 75% of the current machinery is of new generation. This is one of the strengths of Ice-Fili operations and can be leveraged.

Thermal power, wind, Hydel and solar energy are the main sources for generating electricity. With the passage of time, the consumption of electricity has increased proportionately with the increase in the world’s population. Due to decline in global economic situations, that includes inflation, unemployment, corruption and other contributing factors have made electricity expensive and unaffordable for the consumers of third world countries. The production cost and the supply cost have increased, and as a result many electricity generation projects stand pending. With the passage of time, conservation of energy has become a core issue for the world.
There are 7.79kg/tom of N-fertilizer, 0.0kg/ton of P2O5, and 14.41 kg/ton of K2 O-fertilizer that are applied to FFB on average. This was an average from 9 months at the nursery stage and 25 years at the field stage. Glyphosate and paraquat are used as herbicides. Herbicides are applied on average about 1-3 times per year at around 1.8-3.1 hg per ha per ton for glyphosate and .6-1.2 per ha per time for paraquat for the specific study site. Seeds of oil palm are applied at 168 kg/ha (Pleanjai and Gheewala).

Energy is the basic necessity of daily life. Nowadays, dependence on fossil fuels for energy needs becoming lower in numerous countries due to the potential of renewable energy to supply sustainable energy to the huge populations in many developing countries who are short of clean and continues energy. Generally, renewable energy can be defined as energy that is derived from natural resources which are constantly replenished and theoretically inexhaustible. Fossil fuels on the other hand can be described as energy that cannot be renewed and will eventually diminish. Thus, in many developing countries renewable energy is the alternative energy to replace non-renewable energy or commonly known as fossil fuels. In addition, according to Sorensen (2004), there is a greater demand for renewable energy sources nowadays due to the uncertainty of fuel price rise in living expenses. Commonly, there are many types of renewable energy available in our world such as wind power, biomass energy, solar energy, hydroelectric power and geothermal energy. However, the main three example of renewable energy are hydroelectric power, solar and biomass energy (Refer to Figure 1 in Appendix 1).
Based on Laurel Nesbit, a program assistant in the Office of Sustainability here at UF, our campus manages to utilize 470,000 Megawatts of energy annually. This figure is generated from all the energy-consuming gadgets that operate on our campus on a daily bases. These gadgets include computers that are left turned on over the night even they are not in use, copiers, and the fume hoods in our laboratories. Admittedly, the success and the health of wellbeing of the students is contingent upon some of these equipment. For instance, the laboratories need the fume hoods in order to keep the experimenters safe. Instead of casting these necessities away, we can develop alternatives which will be capable of generating energy in order to compensate for the electricity that we endlessly
