Book excerpt: Born into a tenant farming family in North Carolina in 1946, Mary Louise, Mary Ann, Mary Alice, and Mary Catherine were medical miracles. Annie Mae Fultz, a Black-Cherokee woman who lost her ability to hear and speak in childhood, became the mother of America's first surviving set of identical quadruplets. They were instant celebrities. Their White doctor named them after his own family members. He sold the rights to use the sisters for marketing purposes to the highest-bidding formula company. The girls lived in poverty, while Pet Milk's profits from a previously untapped market of Black families skyrocketed. Over half a century later, baby formula is a seventy-billion-dollar industry and Black mothers have the lowest breastfeeding rates in the country. Since slavery, legal, political, and societal factors have routinely denied Black women the ability to choose how to feed their babies. In Skimmed, Andrea Freeman tells the riveting story of the Fultz quadruplets while uncovering how feeding America's youngest citizens is awash in social, legal, and cultural inequalities. This book highlights the making of a modern public health crisis, the four extraordinary girls whose stories encapsulate a nationwide injustice, and how we can fight for a healthier future.

This book was released on with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the short water supply environment of Pakistan, fanners try to minimize the gap between demand and supply of canal water by extracting groundwater for irrigation purposes. However, saline groundwater upconing may occur in response to fresh groundwater withdrawals from unconfined aquifer underlain by salty groundwater. Skimming well technology can help in control1ing this upconing phenomenon. However, in most cases, the small discharges of such wells cannot be efficiently applied on surface irrigated croplands. Pressurized irrigation systems use smal1 discharge effectively, but the cost and availability of equipment in the local market are the constraints. Root zone salinity is also expected to increase if this skimmed groundwater is used for irrigation purposes, particularly in the absence of proper salinity management practices. To address these issues, International Water Management Institute (lWMI), Water Resource Research Institute (WRRI) and Mona Reclamation Experimental Project (MREP) collaborated to undertake an applied research project on Root Zone Salinity Management Using Fractional Skimming Wells with Pressurized Irrigation. This project was started in March 1999 and concluded in June 2003. The National Drainage Program (NDP), Research Component -WAPDA funded this project

This book was released on 2003-03-03 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Detailed hydro-geological investigations were carried out while implementing SCARPs in the Chaj Doab. These investigations yielded a data set of groundwater quality at different depths of the aquifers (spatial) especially in the SCARP-II saline zone. In MREP area, 138 public tubewells, having strainers from 30-35 m till 60-75 m depth of the aquifer, were installed during the 1970s to help meet the irrigation water demand at farm level. The MREP, who was made responsible for operation and maintenance of these deep tubewells, continuously monitored the performance of these tubewells as well. Therefore, the pumped groundwater quality data (temporal) of these spatially distributed tubewells was also available. This data availability served as a basis for site selection using GIS analysis.The GIS analysis, which was used in classifying different groundwater quality zones, helped in selecting fifteen villages (thirteen in MREP area and two in SCARP-II saline zone) that have hydro-geological potential for installing and operating skimming wells. In these selected villages, preliminary survey was carried out to get information on the farmers' willingness to use skimming well technology. Based on the GIS analysiS and preliminary survey, different sites in six villages (two in SCARP-II saline zone, and four in SCARP-II non-saline zone) were selected to carry out the Diagnostic AnalysiS (DA) for investigating the hydro-salinity and hydro-geological conditions of the aquifer. Based on the DA results, four villages for the Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) to assess farmers' practices and perceptions in opting for skimming well technologies.
