Botanical Name and Economic Importance of Wheat Local Name : Gahu Family : Gramineae Botanical : Triticum aestivum Origin : 1. Soft Wheat (Bread wheat) – Hindukush mountainous regions adjoining to India and Afganistan. Economic Importance: Wheat is the staple food of north Inidan people. Wheat grains are grounded into flour (atta) and consumed in the form of chapatee i.e. 80 85% Soft wheat is used for making chapatee, bread, cake, biscuits, pastry and other bakery products. Hard wheat is used for manufacturing rawa, suji and sewaya. In areas where rice is a staple food grain, wheat is eaten in the form of puri and uppumav. It is also used for making flakes and sweet meats like kheer, shira, etc. Wheat grain is used for preparing starch. Wheat straw is used as fooder, padding material and mulching material. 1. Good Point about Wheat Cultivation 1. In India wheat is second important staple food crop next to rice. 2. It is only food grain having leavened bread making quality. 3. It is widely adapted to different soil and climatic conditions. 4. It is simple to cultivate. 5. Its grain is easy to handle, transport and store. 6.

Sahu (Agronomist) Ecological Requirement for Wheat Cultivation A) Climatic Requirement for Wheat Cultivation: 1. Wheat is a temperature crop but widely adapted to varying climate conditions. 2. It needs cool, dry and clear climate for better growth and yield. 3. The optimum temperature range for growth is between 70C to 210C. 4. The rainfall requirement is 750 to 1600 mm/year. 5. Hot and humid climate is harmful because it encourages the infestation of diseases like rust, root rot etc. 6. In early growth stage, it requires cool temperature and dew formation which increases tillering. 7. Very low temperature, cloudy atmosphere and frost during grain filling stage is harmful. B) Soil Requirement for Wheat Cultivation: 1. Wheat crop is grown in different types of soils ranging from desert soil to heavy clay soil. 2. Well drained, fertile clay loam soils having moderate water holding capacity are ideal for irrigated wheat. 3. Heavy soil with open structure which can retain the monsoon rainfall for longer period is ideal for dry wheat crop. 4. In M.S. black soils (regurs) are most suitable for cultivation of wheat. Dr. R.P. Sahu (Agronomist) Tillage for Wheat Cultivation Preparation of land (Tillage): 1. Wheat crop requires well pulverized but compact seedbed for good and uniform germination. 2. The seed bed should not be cloddy or dusty. 3. Preparatory tillage operations varies with type of cultivation i.e. whether grown as rainfed or irrigated crop. Tillage for Dry or Rainfed Wheat Crop: i) Usually land is kept fallow in monsoon season. ii) During monsoon 3 to 5 harrowings are given to remove the weed to conserve the moisture. iii) Land is ploughed deep with an iron plough or tractor, once in about three years. iv) After cessation of monsoon one shallow harrowing is given and compaction of land is done with the help of planker just before sowing.

The study has used unit-level cost of cultivation data for the triennium ending 2013-14 which were collected from Cost of Cultivation Scheme, MPUAT, Udaipur (Raj.) for the present study. It has analyzed crop-wise use of fertilizers, groundwater, surface water and subsidies. The secondary data of cropping pattern was also used from 1991-95 to 2011-14 from various published sources of Government of Rajasthan. The study that even after netting out the input subsidies and effect on environment and natural resources, the cotton-vegetables cropping pattern was found more stable and efficient because of the higher net return of` 102463 per hectare with the next best alternate cropping patterns like clusterbean-chillies (` 86934/ha), cotton-wheat (` 69712/ha), clusterbean-wheat (` 64987/ ha) etc.

World Patterns of Agricultural Production Major Crops With varied types of relief, soils, climate and with plenty of sun-shine and long and short growing season, world has capability to grow each and every crop. Crops required tropical, sub-tropical and temperate climate can easily be grown in one or the other part of world. Crops are devided into following categories. 1. Food Crops: Rice, Wheat, Maize, Millets- Jowar, Bajra, Ragi; Gram, Tur (Arhar). 2. Cash Crops: Cotton, Jute, Sugarcane, Mustard, Tobacco, Groundnut, Sesamum, oilseeds Castorseed, Linseed etc 3. Plantation Crops: Tea, Coffee, Spices- Cardamom, Chillies, Ginger, Turmeric; Coconut and Rubber. 4. Horticulture: Fruits- Apple, Peach, Pear, Apricot, Almond, Strawberry, Mango, Banana, Vegetables. World production of major Food Crops (rice, wheat, maize, barley, rye, sorghum and millet) Rice Production Rice is the most important food crop. There are about 10,000 varieties if rice in the world. Rice is life for thousand of millions people obtain 60 to 70 percent of their calories from rice and their products. Recognising the importance of this crop, the United Nations General Assembly declared 2004 as the International Year of Rice. The theme of IYR –“Rice is Life” reflects the importance of rice as a primary food source. The Asian continent dominates in terms of global rice production, with China and India leading the way. Rice is among the three leading food crops of the world, with maize (corn) and wheat being the other two. All three directly provide no less than 42% of the world’s required caloric intake and, in 2009, human consumption was responsible for 78% of the total usage of produced rice.

IMD also published its second long-range forecast predicting a normal Southwest Monsoon (June to September) for 2020. The rainfall is likely to be 102 percent of the long period average (LPA). The impact of super cyclone Amphan on crops in Eastern India is under assessment by government agencies, as Western India prepares for Cyclone Nisarga. THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY General Information Southwest Monsoon Onset On June 1, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) announced that the Southwest Monsoon had set over the coast of the southern state of Kerala coinciding with its normal date. The IMD had earlier forecast the arrival of monsoon rains over Kerala on June 5, four days later than usual. The timely arrival of monsoon bodes well for the Kharif 2020 crop that has faced delays due to labor shortages. The timely rains should provide adequate moisture, and accelerate the pace of planting across India as states gradually ease lockdown restrictions.

  • Recommended Package of Agro Production Technology for Finger Millet
    RECOMMENDED PACKAGE OF AGRO PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGY FOR FINGER MILLET FINGER MILLET ( Eleusine coracana Gaertn.) The cultivation of finger millet ( ragi mandua, nagli, kapai and madua) is widely distributed extending from Tamil Nadu in South to Uttaranchal in North; Gujarat in West to Orissa in East and even extending to north – eastern regions including Sikkim. The area under finger (Eleusine coracana) has declined from 2.6 million ha in early sixties to around 1.8 million ha in 2002-03. However, the annual production is maintained around 2.6 tonnes with a productivity of around 1.4000 kg/ha. Finger millet is grown in different seasons in different parts of the county. As a rainfed crop, it is sown in June – July in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh; during June in Maharashtra, Orissa, Bihar, Uttaranchal, Madhya Pradesh and Gujrat; and in April – May in hills at higher altitudes of Uttaranchal and Himachal Pradesh. It is also grown in the winter season ( rabi ) by planting in September – October in Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh and as summer irrigated crop by planting is January – February in Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Bihar. Varieties A number of high yielding varieties have been evolved and released for cultivation in different states. The improved varieties are able to meet the specific requirements of different regions. This includes varieties for drier areas, saline and sodic soils of Tamil Nadu, for both early and late planting situations in Kharif , rabi and summer in Karnataka, varieties combining high seed and fodder yield with earliness for Uttaranchal, blast resistant varieties for disease endemic regions and varieties suitable for coastal and high rainfall regions of Andhra Pradesh and Orissa.

  • 2..DSR Barabanki
    have come from Gujarat, the same nursery of Chhattris from which the Ahban, the Pan war, the Gahlot, the Gaur, the Bais, and many other Oudh clans, are believed to have emigrated. The district under British rule had an area of 1,769 sq mi (4,580 km2). In 1856 it came, with the rest of Oudh, under British rule. During the Sepoy war of 1857-1858 the whole of the Barabanki talukdars joined the mutineers, but offered no serious resistance after the capture of Lucknow. It stretches out in a level plain interspersed with numerous jhils or marshes. In the upper part of the district the soil is sandy, while in the lower part it is clayey and produces finer crops. The district is well fed by rivers Ghaghra (forming the northern boundary), Gomti (flowing through the middle of the district) and Kalyani and their tributaries, for the major part of the year. Some rivers dry out in the summer, and get flooded during the rainy season. The changing course of the river Ghagra changes the land area in the district, year to year.
