In the first step, adaptation practices that had already been applied locally and/or had been previously introduced by national development, research and extension organizations were collected and documented by the project. The adaptation practices identified from the project area can be categorized as: a) agronomic management, b) water harvesting c) water resources exploitation, d) water use efficiency, e) crop intensification, f) alternative enterprise, g) alternative energy source etc. From this preliminary list, those adaptation options to be further promoted and/or replicated were selected through a sequence of evaluation processes at different levels starting from upazila-level DMC members, Upazila level Technical Implementation Groups (UTIWG) and National level Technical Implementation Working Groups (NTIWG). First consultative meetings and brief feed back workshops were also organized with the national research institutions (BARI, BRRI, BLRI and BFRI) and developmental organizations.

  • Economic Analysis of Agriculture Diversification in Western Plain Zone of Uttar Pradesh
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention (IJHSSI) ISSN (Online): 2319 – 7722, ISSN (Print): 2319 – 7714 www.ijhssi.org ||Volume 8 Issue 05 Ser. II || May 2019 || PP 09-13 Economic Analysis of Agriculture Diversification in Western Plain Zone of Uttar Pradesh Dr. Dushyant Kumar* *Associate Prof.inEconomcs A.S.P.G. College Lakhaoti(C.C.S.University,Meerut) Buland Shahr. ABSTRACT: Agriculture diversification generally viewed as a shift from traditionally less remunerative cropping pattern to more remunerative cropping pattern. Future of diversification is enormous subject to the policy support and investment priorities. Western plain zone of Uttar Pradesh, comprising Meerut and Saharanpur division is characterized as food and sugar basket. In case of west part of U.P, agriculture is highly mechanized and multi-cropping technique adopted in a big way. Although in the field of agriculture some alarming issues received attention of policy maker and farmer, which is like--Decreasing size of agriculture land holding-Declining land-man ratio- Decreasing underground water level-Degradation of land fertility-Decreasing returns from agriculture etc. With rapid urbanization and growing land degradation, future agricultural growth would be depend on intensification and diversification of agriculture. Expansion of area in favour of agriculture is a remote possibility in Western Zone of U.P. Therefore agriculture diversification is the alternatives to accelerate agriculture growth and farm income. No doubt to develop a realistic and sound farm policy, consistent with the resources of farmers, it is imperative to have basic information regarding pattern of land utilization, investment in fixed capital, crop combination, level of production and productivity, and income and other related information.

During the rabi season in the northern and north- eastern regions of the country, occurrence of cold waves due to passing western disturbances is an annual phenomenon. Under the influence of these synoptic systems, night temperatures may often go below freezing point and day time temperatures become too low, at times less than optimum during the peak winter period. In 2002-2003 rabi season, severe cold wave conditions prevailed for a prolonged period over many parts of northern and eastern India for one to two weeks at a stretch, especially during January. This was a new record in the recent decades.

  • RAPESEED and MUSTARD.Pdf
    RAPESEED AND MUSTARD Rapeseed (Brassica campestris) and Mustard (Brassica juncea) are the major rabi oilseed crops of India. India is one of the largest producer of these crops in the world. The production of rapeseed and mustard in India accounts for about 18% of the total oilseed production of the country. Sarson and toria (lahi) are generally termed as rapeseed, rai or raya or laha is termed as mustard. The seed and oil are used as condiment in the preparation of pickles and for flavouring curries and vegetables. The oil is utilized for human consumption throughout northern India in cooking and frying purposes. The oil cake is used as a cattle feed and manure. Green stems and leaves are a good source of green fodder for cattle. The leaves of young plants are used as green vegetables as they supply enough sulphur and minerals in the diet. The oil content of the rapeseed and mustard ranges from 30 to 48 percent. The crop is grown both in subtropical and tropical countries. Among the rabi oilseeds, rapeseed and mustard can play an important role in the north eastern hill region to boost oilseed production. In the region, rapeseed-mustard can be successfully grown as rabi crop up to mid altitude (<1300 m msl) and yield level of 8-12 q/ha can be achieved by adopting improved production technology. In NEH region, rapeseed - mustard is cultivated in an area of 0.46 lakh ha and the average yield is 888 kg/ha, which is much lower compared to the national average (941 kg /ha).

  • Biomass Production and Production Efficiency of Different Soybean [Glycine Max (L.) Merrill] Based Cropping Systems in Malwa Plateau of Madhya Pradesh, India
    Int.J.Curr.Microbiol.App.Sci (2020) 9(1): 1353-1359 International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN: 2319-7706 Volume 9 Number 1 (2020) Journal homepage: http://www.ijcmas.com Original Research Article https://doi.org/10.20546/ijcmas.2020.901.150 Biomass Production and Production Efficiency of Different Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] based Cropping Systems in Malwa Plateau of Madhya Pradesh, India Sanjay Kumar1*, H. S. Kushwaha1 and D. K. Paliwal2 1Department of Natural Resource Management, Faculty of Agriculture, Mahatma Gandhi Chitrakoot Gramodaya Vishwa Vidyalaya, Chitrakoot, Satna (M.P.), India, 2RVSKVV, Gwalior (M. P.), India *Corresponding author ABSTRACT Soybean is cultivated in a wider range of cropping systems due to its compatibility in various cropping systems. Its cultivation in rainfed situation and lack of diversification of rabi crop leads to lower the productivity, increases risk of crop failure. Under such circumstances, the diversification of crops under soybean based cropping system appears to be K e yw or ds a possible way for improving the biomass productivity and production Soybean-based efficiency per unit area per year without jeopardizing the soil health. Cropping systems, Keeping these points in view, a field investigation was undertaken to assess biomass production, the biomass productivity and production efficiency of different cropping Production efficiency sequences in Malwa region during kharif and rabi cropping seasons of the year 2013-14 and 2014-15 with 14 treatments as crop-sequences in Article Info completely randomized block design with 3 replications. Maximum yield in Accepted: rabi was obtained with garlic followed by the wheat.
