Environmental impact of agro-based industries a case study of Gorakhpur division (U.P.)
(2009) V.N. Sharma; Ms Manvi
Mushrooming of plenty of small agro-based industries generally neglects the environmental concerns. In the absence of proper waste disposal functioning, these industries practice unsafe dumping of hazardous waste in open areas, which are degrading the environment. But, the impacts of agro-based industries on the environment have been under the recycling capacity of the ecosystem, because pollutants caused by them are decentralized due to their decentralized as well as diversified nature. The trend of such impacts is also prevailing in Gorakhpur division except sugar industry (the only big industry), which is causing environmental problems in their localities. This paper assesses the impact of agro-based industries on local ecology through empirical survey.
