Introduction Soil fertility management will ultimately sustainability of cropping through balanced consider all aspects of soil – plant relationship nutrition and ultimately sustainable and pollution of the environment as well. Soil development of the fertilizer industry. Soil fertility may be defined as the soil system’s test-based fertility management is an effective nutrient supplying capacity. It helps in tool for increasing productivity of agricultural adopting appropriate measures for soils that have high degree of spatial overcoming various limitations and at the variability resulting from the combined same time ensures optimum crop production. effects of physical, chemical or biological Soil micro nutrients are an essential as processes (Goovaerts, 1998). However, major primary and secondary nutrients for the constraints impede wide scale adoption of soil development of crop growth. The addition of testing in most developing countries. In India, micro nutrients to fertilizers in the optimum these include the prevalence of small holding amounts and in degraded soils ensures the systems of farming as well as lack of 110 Int.J.Curr.Microbiol.App.Sci (2017) 6(4): 110-115 infrastructural facilities for extensive soil climate Zone’s Irrigated north - western plain testing (Sen et al., 2008). The variability in of U.P. generally experiences arid to semi- fertility caused by application of fertilizers in arid climate, having average rainfall of 1275.3 individual farms is one factor that is difficult mm with erratic pattern of distribution, mostly to account. However, it is possible to measure concentrated in the month of June to the natural variation in soil fertility by September. The climate of Kumbhi varies to considering the factors which influence it. extreme limits. The summer temperature Slope, topography, relief and soil types can reaches up to 45°C and winter temperature account for most of the natural variation in falls just around 4°C.Rainfed agriculture is fertility. It will be of great significance if soil the tradition farming practice followed in the test crop response based recommendation can region. The crops cultivated under rainfed be provided even on this basis. More site conditions are mustard, gram, sugarcane and specific recommendations can still be rapeseed in Rabi season, while wheat, barely, provided on the basis of field soil testing to mustard, sugarcane and gram are cultivated farmers who are applying very high doses of under irrigated condition and Cotton, Cluster fertilizer and who show interest on testing bean, bajra and sorghum are cultivated under their soils. The soil testing results indicate Kharif season. Total geographical area of the nothing about the potential of soil to produce district is 772.8 ha. Out of this 164.8 ha or amount of nutrients to be added to achieve comes under forest. Total cropped area of the a desired yield (Melsted and Peck, 1977).Our district was recorded 3800 ha. Surface soil of aim of optimizing the utilization of land the farmer’s field from different villages of resources with intensification of agriculture Kumbhi block of Lahkimpur district, were resulted either in the fast depletion of sampled randomly from the depth of 0-15 cm nutrients or occasionally in their in the soil under V shape pit with the help of accumulation. It is therefore important to khurpi from different village of Lahkimpur monitor the fertility status of soil from time to district. The Soil samples were mixed time with a view to monitor the soil health. thoroughly and about a half kilogram of The intensively cultivated soil is usually composite samples from farmer’s field were deficient in macro and micronutrients. This taken for analysis. Collected soil samples (0- study was carried out to find out nutrient 15 cm depth) were brought into laboratory status of area and the fertility constraints and dried and at room temperature. Dried soil which hinder the growth of crops. Soil samples were kept in a polythene bag for samples were collected and analyzed for further physico-chemical analysis.

  • Study Sponsored by Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Agro-Economic Research Centre University of Allahabad Allahabad-211002
    Study No. 143 Publication No. 192 FFFaFaaarrrrmermer Suicides ininin Uttar Pradesh Prof. Ramendu Roy Dr. H.C. Malviya Haseeb Ahmad Study Sponsored by Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Agro-Economic Research Centre University of Allahabad Allahabad-211002 January- 2017 [1] PREFACE India is basically an agrarian country because more than 60 percent population of the country resides in rural areas and their main occupation is agriculture. Besides this, the livelihood of majority of population of rural areas of the country is also depended on the agriculture. However, the agriculture is still a gamble of monsoon. It is an uncertain and un-predictable occupation because it still depends on weather condition. The drought, flood, heavy rains, hail storm, etc are the common phenomena in the country. These are causes of failure of crops. On account of failure of crops, the indebtedness is also increasing among the farmers. More than70% of total farmers of the country are marginal and small farmers who are mostly in the debt trap. The crop failure, indebtedness, illness, family problems, drug abuser etc are reasons for famers’ suicides in the country. In spite of doing all efforts, the incidence of farmers’ suicides is not being stopped yet in the country. The incidences of farmers’ suicide mostly occurred in Maharashtra, Telangana, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Chhattisgarh. These are most prone states for incidence of farmers’ suicides. However, it is also a global phenomena. Sri. Lanka, USA, Canada, England and Australia are also in the grip of incidence of farmers’ suicides. Out of total farmers suicides of 5650 in 2014 in India the maximum share accounted for 45.45% in Maharashtra followed by 15.90%, 14.62%, 7.80%, and 5.68% in Telangana, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and Karnataka respectively.

MEENA AND A.K. VERMA ABSTRACT : The present investigation was carried out in two districts of Uttar Pradesh namely Bareilly and Lakhimpur Kheri to study the farmer’s perception towards the comparative importance and effectiveness of different livestock services delivered to them. A total of 120 respondents were interviewed using a well-structured interview schedule constructed on the basis of responses obtained in pilot study. These respondents were selected randomly from three blocks of each district. Collected data were analyzed using statistical tools. After analysis of data it was found that most of the respondents from Bareilly, Lakhimpur Kheri and in pooled sample, respectively had given first rank to gynecological and obstetrical treatment followed by second rank to medical treatment, followed by Artificial insemination, vaccination, wound dressing etc. In terms of effectiveness livestock services delivered to the livestock farmers were average followed by poor. Their perception about the relative importance of different livestock services and effectiveness will provide a clear view to government as well as policy makers to strengthen and replicate the livestock Service provisions to make them excellent in terms of their effectiveness.

  • Trends and Pattern of Crop Diversification in Kheri District, Uttar Pradesh, India Moin Khan1, Dr
    International Journal of Environmental & Agriculture Research (IJOEAR) ISSN:[2454-1850] [Vol-5, Issue-11, November- 2019] Trends and Pattern of Crop Diversification in Kheri District, Uttar Pradesh, India Moin Khan1, Dr. Ateeque Ahmad2 Department of Geography, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh-202002 Abstract— Crop diversification in India is visualized as the shift from traditionally cultivated less remunerative crops to more remunerative crops. The process of crop diversification is a result of government efforts, market conditions, and farmers' decisions according to the physical conditions of a particular area. The study has been carried out considering Lakhimpur Kheri district as the study area. The crop diversification was estimated by applying three techniques given by Gibbs and Martin, Bhatiya and Singh. Two agricultural years 2006-07 and 2016-17 are taken for the study. The study focused on the spatial comparison in which the block is the minimum unit area for the analysis. The maps for the spatial distribution of crop diversity are generated in the Arc GIS 10.2.2. A change in the crop diversification in a decade has also been examined. There was great similarity in the results by applying all the techniques, but there was some exception in some cases. The results show that, in 2006-07, the diversification was high in the northern and southern blocks like Nighasan, Dhaurehra, Isanagar, Mitauli, and Pasgawan while the blocks lying in the western and central region registered the low intensity of diversification. While, in 2016-17, southern blocks registered high crop diversification and the diversification was low in the central region in almost all the techniques applied.
