Abstract

In this current study, Azadirachta indica native plant to Indian sub-continent was selected as the subject to screen the effect of industrial effluents as well as Agnihotra ash on its growth. Effluents from various industries were used. Control plant was grown on tap water. Rest of the saplings were grown on effluents procured from other sources. All these were compared to the plant grown on Agnihotra ash. Based on the observations, it was concluded that the Agnihotra ash based plant growth was superior of all.
