The result revealed that total cost of cultivation for cumin per hectare was 11.19 per cent. Per hectare cost of cultivation of cumin was worked out to Rs.37554.42. The result of compound growth rate revealed that area, production and yield of cumin was increasing continuously from 1997-98 to 2017-18. In case of acreage response of cotton crop, the lagged area and lagged yield risk played significant role in area of cumin. The rainfall was negatively significant. Thus, means due to high rainfall decreased cumin area by sowing other Rabi crops.

  • My Memoirs of Bantva, Part - I
    My Memoirs of Bantva, Part - I By: Abdul Aziz Suleman Haji Ahmed Khanani, Karachi. Pakistan My full name is Abdul Aziz Suleman Haji Ahmed Khanani (Machhiyara) and I was born in Bantva, India on Tuesday August 12th 1930. I migrated after Indian invasion of Junagadh end of 1947 but unfortunately, we went to Hyderabad (south India) where my Mamoo was doing job. That time I was only 17 years old and only head of the family with five sisters and one younger brother and my Mother. I have to lead them because my father at that time was in service in Calcutta. Unfortunately, we have to migrate again in early 1948 after invasion of Hyderabad and arrived Karachi via Bombay in Junkyard Cargo ship overloaded with Migrants and we were afraid this ship will sink at any time. No food or water was served on this ship to passengers during the entire three days of journey and many migrants were sick or vomiting due to rough sea. In Karachi, I joined Adam Ltd for four years (1950 - 1954) and worked with Japanese company Nichimen Corp for 32 years (1954 - 1986) and since then I am working with East Asian Textiles owned by Mr. M. Iqbal Mangrani. I revisited Bantva in December of 1964 and took some pictures of old Bantva (inside Zapa) was almost destroyed and ruined but outside Zapa Talao, Hussain Pura, Madressah and Hussaini Yateem Khana etc were in good shape as you will be able to see from the pictures . Madressa-e-Islamia was a school where there were classes up to 5th standard and after that we have to go to other cities such as Junagadh or Rajkot for further study up to Metric.

At the Third stage from each selected taluka 5 villages were selected randomly and then from each village 10 farmers were selected randomly for the collection of data. Therefore, 100 samples were selected for the study. The mass media users surveyed from two taluka of Junagadh district have important implications for agricultural information dissemination that public extension system and other programs carried out in developing countries. Although the impact of agri-media is very satisfactory to the extent but then also impact was very less.
