Results-Framework Document Annexure Preface vailability of food, nutritional security, sustainable livelihoods and health care are integral aspects Acontributing to inclusive growth of any developing economy. In this scenario, horticulture has emerged as one of the most important sub-sectors of agriculture in the country. The production of horticultural crops has outpaced the production of food grains since 2012-13. India has witnessed voluminous increases in horticultural production over the last few years. Significant progress has been made in the area expansion resulting in higher production. Over the last decade, the area under horticulture grew by about 2.7 per cent per annum and annual production increased by 7.0 per cent. During 2013-14, the production of horticultural crops was around 283.5 million tons from 24.2 million hectares area. Out of the six categories viz., fruits, vegetables, flowers, aromatic plants, spices and plantation crops, the highest annual growth of 9.5 per cent was seen in fruit production during 2013-14. The production of vegetables has increased from 58,532 thousand tons to 1,67,058 thousand tons since 1991-92 to 2014-15. India witnessed a sharp increase in the acreage of horticultural crops compared to food grains over the last five years (from 2010-11 to 2014-15) with the area under horticultural crops increasing to around 18 per cent as compared to an area expansion under food grains by a marginal 5 per cent during the stipulated period. The production of horticultural crops has outpaced the production of food grains since 2012-13. The percentage share of horticultural output in agriculture presently is more than 33 per cent. During 2014-15, the country exported fruits and vegetables worth Rs.7474.14 crores. Under the purview of agriculture and allied activities, the share of plan outlay for horticulture, which was 3.9 per cent during IX Plan, has increased to 4.6 per cent during the XII Plan, thus providing opportunities. The sub-sector has accomplished different milestones despite the challenges of low productivity, diminishing land resources, degraded production environment, energy crisis, significant post-harvest losses, low levels of value addition, climate change, global competition, weak knowledge sharing infrastructure, inadequate market linkages, sub- optimal factor productivity, harnessing of space and IT benefits. I feel utmost privileged to present the Annual Report 2015-16 of the ICAR - Indian Institute of Horticultural Research, Hesaraghatta, Bengaluru. The institute along with its regional stations and Krishi Vigyan Kendras is playing a pivotal role in conducting research, education and knowledge management activities for boosting horticultural growth in the country through technology development in the areas of trait-specific varieties of fruits, vegetables, ornamentals, medicinal & aromatic crops and mushrooms focusing on water prudence, climate resilience and tolerance to different biotic and abiotic stresses supported by a range of farmer-friendly technologies for soil and plant health management, post-harvest management, value addition and farm mechanization. The institute takes pride in claiming that it is an innovative hub that has led to commercialization of a number of innovations in the area of seed and quality planting materials, diagnostics, bio-control agents, micronutrient formulations, microbial inoculants and gender mainstreaming technologies resulting in the mitigation of problems in real-time farming situations. The institute has also empowered the trainers, growers and other stakeholders through gap analysis, technology refinement and knowledge sharing mechanisms. I take this opportunity to express my sincere thanks to all the staff of the institute for admirably raising to the occasion of challenges and harnessing the opportunities for optimizing the outputs. I am grateful to the Institute Management Committee and Research Advisory Committee, for reviewing the institutional activities and programmes from time to time and offering valuable suggestions for improvement. I wish to place on record my deep sense of gratitude to Dr. S. Ayyappan, Former Secretary, DARE & Director General, ICAR, Dr. Trilochan Mohapatra, Secretary, DARE & Director General, ICAR, New Delhi and Dr. N.K.

  • Ecological Studies on Mango Leaf Webber (Orthaga Exvinaceahamp.)
    Internat. J. agric. Sci. Vol.2 No.2 July 2006 : (308-311) 308 Ecological studies on mango leaf webber (Orthaga exvinacea Hamp.) in Andhra Pradesh as a basis for IPM M. Kannan*1 and N. Venugopala Rao Department of Entomology, S.V. Agricultural College, TIRUPATI (A.P.) INDIA ABSTRACT The influence of ecological factors viz., biotic (Host plant) and abiotic factors (weather parameters) on the abundance and population fluctuation of leaf webber, Orthaga exvinacea (Hamp.) on mango under the conditions of Chittoor district were worked out. Peak incidence was observed during first fortnight of November (19.4 webs/tree). However, gradual increase was observed from the first fortnight of July (2.6 webs/tree) and declined during second fortnight of January (3.2 webs/tree). Correlation studies between incidence and weather parameters showed positive relationship with minimum temperature, relative humidity and rainfall and negative relationship with maximum temperature. None of the varieties was free from infestation. The infestation ranged from 7.80 to 29.47 webs/tree, 5.82 to 22.55 leaves/web and 1.92 to 29.47 larvae/tree. Variety Neelum showed less infestation, while Bangalore showed severe infestation and other varieties viz., Neeleghan, Cherakurasam, Mulgova, Rumani, Baneshan and Swarnajahangir have moderate infestation. Result of the study also revealed that older mango trees (15 and above years old) were more susceptible (18.26, 348.75, 121.61 webs/tree, webbed leaves/tree and larva/ tree, respectively) to leaf webber damage than young trees (0-5 years old). Key Words: Mango leaf webber, Ecological studies, Varietal susceptibility, Abiotic factors INTRODUCTION Impact of abiotic factors on population dynamics of leaf webber Mango, Mangifera indica is an important fruit crop of India.

The demand of water is increasing day by day. So, groundwater resources play a vital role for additional demand by farmers and Industries and domestic usage leads to rapid development of groundwater. About 63% of available groundwater resources are now being used. However, the development is not uniform all over the State, and in certain districts of Tamil Nadu, intensive groundwater development had led to declining water levels, increasing trend of Over Exploited and Critical Firkas, saline water intrusion, etc. ADMINISTRATIVE SET UP The geographical extent of Theni District is 3, 24,230 hectares or 3,242.30 sq.km. Accounting for 2.05 percent of the geographical area of Tamilnadu State. The district has well laid roads and railway lines connecting all major towns within and outside the State. For administrative purpose, the district has been bifurcated into 5 Taluks, 8 Blocks and 17 Firkas .

    MOLECULAR AND BIOLOGIC CHARACTERIZATION OF TRYPANOSOMA CRUZI FROM THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA by DAWN MARIE ROELLIG (Under the Direction of Michael J. Yabsley) ABSTRACT Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, is a flagellated protozoan parasite endemic to the Americas. There are an estimated 7.6 million people infected within Latin America, with 200,000 new cases occurring annually. In the United States, only six autochthonous human cases have been reported, but screening of US blood donors since January 2007 by the Chagas’ Disease Biovigilance Network has confirmed over 1,000 seropositive donations, some of which are believed to be autochthonously acquired infections. In addition to autochthonous human cases, naturally acquired infections have been reported in domestic dogs, captive exotic animals, and a wide range of wildlife species. Although T. cruzi is common in the sylvatic cycle (transmission between wildlife and vectors) and the peridomestic cycle (between animals that move between the wild and around homes), circulation within the domestic cycle (between hosts within or around homes) is less often documented in the US. In the sylvatic cycle, a number of wild mammals have been identified as reservoirs and the prevalence of T. cruzi in US wildlife based on serology, culture isolation, and/or PCR can be equally as high as in South America. Considerable work on T. cruzi has been conducted in Central and South America, but due to limited numbers of human cases in the US, little work has been conducted to characterize US isolates. Previous studies have determined prevalence in some host species through the use of serology, hemoculture, and/or PCR, identified transmission routes for a few reservoirs using non-native isolates, and molecularly characterized a limited number of isolates.
