Duration : Three years INTRODUCTION Potassium is basic to plant and animal life.Plants readily absorb available soil K.Once inside the plant,Potassium is mobile.It moves readily from older to younger tissue.That is why, deficiency symptoms of K usually appear on older leaves first. Excellent research work on soil status & crop response to Potassium was done in the PRII (India)-BAU collaborative research Project during 1982 -1995. This was followed by work in the PPIC (India Programme) sponsored research Project on Balanced fertilization of Crops. The crop response studies were carried out in farmers fields & on-station trials in Rice, Potato, Maize, Wheat, Ragi & Oilseeds. Keeping in view the importance of Vegetables & fruit crops in the state of Jharkhand , experiments in farmers fields have been undertaken under the collaborative research programme of International Potash Institute, Switzerland and Birsa Agricultural University, Jharkhand, India from June,2011. BACKGROUND INFORMATION The geographical area of Jharkhand is 7.9 million ha, out of which net sown area is 2.4 million ha. It is a food crop dominated area and 0.04 million ha of land is covered under vegetables. At present Jharkhand state is producing only 3.6 million tones of vegetables with an average productivity level of 15.5 t/ha which is less than productivity level of India (16.37 t/ha). The agricultural production meets only 56 per cent of requirement of 27 million people inhabiting in the state and per capita availability of vegetables of the state is only 298 g/day / person. Jharkhand has the potential for higher production of vegetable crops by adoption of improved management practices and soil health care. Among the major plant nutrients (NPK), potassium requirement in vegetables is fairly high as compared to the food grains and lack of K brings about a drastic change in production quality as well as shelf life. Soils of Jharkhand have been grouped under the orders light textured Alfisol,Entisol and Ultisol, having low base saturation (50-60%), acidic reaction (4.5 to 6.5 pH), high P fixing capacity (70 to 80%), poor organic matter content (2 - 5 g kg-1), poor water retention capacity (18-22% at FC) and low to medium is K. In K deficient soils both yield and quality of vegetables are poor. Inclusion of K is essential in the fertilization schedule for higher crop productivity.

  • Transport Linkage Analysis of Rural Markets in Peripheral Blocks of Ranchi, Jharkhand
    Jharkhand Journal of Development and Management Studies XISS, Ranchi, Vol. 15, No.4, December 2017, pp.7507-7525 TRANSPORT LINKAGE ANALYSIS OF RURAL MARKETS IN PERIPHERAL BLOCKS OF RANCHI, JHARKHAND Shiv Kumar1 Transport linkages are the wealth of a nation. They act as a tool for social inclusion, economic development and environmental sustainability. Transport link communities and their agricultural produce to the main transport system and markets. This results in increased production and productivity, crop diversification and increased profitability. Network has great impact on rural markets. The selling and buying activity has increased to a large extent due to the inner-connecting lanes of the markets. One characteristic feature of the rural markets of Ranchi city and its periphery is that they have developed with close association with network i.e. transportation routes. In a city like Ranchi, two types of transport network predominate - Roadways and Railways. This paper aims to throw light on network of rural markets in the periphery of Ranchi city and assesses how they can be improved. The existing inadequacy of network in the peripheral area has been discussed in this study which is mainly based on the collection of primary data. A total of 52 rural markets were surveyed from 3 peripheral blocks (Kanke -20, Namkum -15 and Ratu -17 rural markets). The study concludes that the existence of rural markets is threatened due to the lack of connectivity as the producers/sellers are not getting adequate benefit from their produce as lot of profit is lost by the middlemen, cost of transport, perishable goods rot during the time taken to reach the market.

  • Impact on Farm Economics of Changing Seed Use a Study in Jharkhand
    Impact on Farm Economics of Changing Seed Use A Study in Jharkhand Suman Sahai Manoj Gautam, Aditya Kumar, Joe Hill J-235/A, Lane W-15C, Sainik Farms, Khanpur, New Delhi -110 062 Phone : +91-11-29556248, Fax : +91-11-29555961 Email : [email protected] Web: www.genecampaign.org 1 Introduction Till recently, Jharkhand’s farmers overwhelmingly cultivated traditional varieties of rice along with some high yielding varieties or HYVs. Since the late 1990s, a third type of rice seed – the private sector owned hybrid rice is available and is actively promoted by the agriculture university and the state’s agriculture department. The history of the development of improved rice varieties in India dates to the first half of the 20th century when pure line method of selection enabled the release of some 445 indica varieties1. From 1965 an inter-racial hybridisation programme between semi-dwarf Taiwanese types and indica types of rice led to the development of Taichung (Native) - I, and the release of the Padma and Jaya semi-dwarf varieties of rice. Thereafter began the prolific release of what are now known as high yielding varieties (HYVs) with 123 varieties released in 12 years as compared to the 51 high yielding varieties released in the previous four decades. The semi-dwarf varieties were generally found to be superior to the tall traditional varieties in efficiency of grain production. Their short height also made them resilient to lodging in strong winds, so the grain was not lost when the plant fell to the ground. In 1994 the first four hybrids were released (APHR-1, APHR-2, MGR-1 and KRH-1).

LULC dynamics is invariably associated with various forms of land and ecological degradation. Identification of drivers and mechanism of LULC dynamics is also crucial for alleviation of land degradation. This paper investigates the Issue Issue spatio-temporal dynamics of LULC and demography and their inter-relationship in the different administrative blocks located within parts of Subarnarekha watershed, Jharkhand state, India, which comprises a large 14 concentration of tribal population. The investigation was conducted in two successive time gradients i.e. 1987- 2000 and 2000-2013 corresponding to the pre- and post-state formation in order to assess the impact of urbanization on the LULC dynamics and demographic characteristics subsequent to the formation of the state. Three indices viz. Net Change Ratio, Annual Rate of Change and Single Index of Dynamic Extent were used to determine the spatio-temporal dynamics of five major LULC categories viz. builtup, builtup with vegetation, Volume Volume cropland, dense vegetation, and sparse vegetation with scrubs, while the demographic parameters used are namely Population Density, House Hold Density and percent Tribal Population.

All rights reserved Transformation of Agriculture in Jharkhand R.P. Singh* and Jai Prakash Centre for Agribusiness Management, Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, India Department of EES, Visva-Bharati, Sriniketan, West Bengal, India Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT The study on “Transformation in agriculture in Jharkhand” revealed that the cropping pattern has shifted from lower value crop to high value crops in the state. The area under paddy crop is declining continuously, but acreage under wheat crop is increasing in the state. The study further shows that the minor millets crops area is declining in the state continuously and reached to a negligible level. The performance of pulses and oil seeds crops are improving year after year as indicated by increase in area, production and productivity in the state. The vegetable crop’s area has contributed significant in cropping pattern showing nearly 11% during 2012-13 which was near about 7% in year 2000. The fruit acreage has also increased during 2000 to 2012 in the state. The rate of growth was near about three times in the state during this period. It was also found that there have been significant changes in consumption of chemical fertilizers (NPK) in the state showing near about three times higher from the base year 2001. The consumption of NPK was about 85 Kg, 30 Kg., and about 9.0 Kg. per hectare of cropped area making total 124 kg.
