Weekly data from 32nd meteorological standard week (MSW) to 9th standard week of Associate Professor, Department next year. The weekly average of weather variables (rainfall, maximum and minimum temperature, of Agricultural Statistics, morning and afternoon relative humidity and sunshine hours) over a span of 31 years period (1981-82 to Junagadh Agricultural 2011-12) has been used along with the annual castor production data for Banaskantha district of Gujarat University, Junagadh, Gujarat, state. For early forecast, 12, 9, 6 and 3 weeks intervals were considered. The stepwise regression India procedure was adopted using 31 years data for selection of variables. These models for respective districts can be used for providing pre-harvest forecast, 9 weeks before expected harvest in case of PB Marviya Banaskantha districts. The study showed that models selected for pre-harvest forecasts explained more Assistant Professor, Department than 90% for Banaskantha district. The errors of simulated forecasts were less than 3 per cent in model.

Land Degradation Assessment and Mapping in Banaskantha District, Gujarat Using Remote Sensing and GIS Techniques
Land degradation assessment and mapping in Banaskantha district, Gujarat using remote sensing and GIS techniques 1 3 3 3 2 Davda Kruti M. , Manish Parmar , Arun Kumar Sharma , A.S. Rajawat , M.J. Pandya 1 M.E. Student, Department of Environmental Engineering, L.D. College of Engineering, Gujarat Technological University, Ahmedabad, India 2 Assistant Professor, Department of Environmental Engineering, L.D. College of Engineering, Gujarat Technological University, Ahmedabad, India 3 Space Applications Centre (ISRO), Ahmedabad Corresponding Author email: [email protected] Abstract: Land degradation, a process of reduction in the productive capacity of land, is a subtle and progressive environmental change in time. Overexploitation of natural resources by humans and climatic conditions such as prolonged drought, further aggravates land degradation in fragile ecosystems. Desertification is the continuous degradation of land in arid, semi-arid and dry sub- humid regions. Mapping and quantifying the extent and geographical distribution of degraded lands form an essential input for planning reclamation/ conservation strategies. In Banaskantha district of Gujarat, drought is a common feature causing soil moisture deficiency leading to desertification. The present study deals with mapping and assessment of land degradation and desertification status of Banaskantha district, covering 10,743 sq. km area, located in semi-arid regions of Gujarat state using remotely sensed data. Desertification in the district is assessed using visual interpretation of three season (kharif, rabi and zaid) IRS LISS III satellite data of 2011-12 timeframe in GIS environment. Desertification Status Map is prepared at 1:50,000 scale using hierarchal classification system comprising of three elements viz. land use, process of desertification and its severity.

Journal of Agrometeorology 12 (1): 47-52 (June 2010) Estimation of cotton yield based on weather parameters of Banaskantha district in Gujarat state N. J. RANKJA, S. M.UPADHYAY, H.R. PANDYA, B.A. PARMAR and S.L.VARMORA Department of Agricultural Statistics, College of Agriculture, Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh ABSTRACT The present investigation was undertaken to identify the quantitative relationship between weather parameters and district level yield of cotton and to develop preharvest forecast models for cotton yield. For this purpose 32 years weather and crop yield records of Banaskantha district were collected. It was found that the 26 week crop period model ( using original weather variables, week wise approach) was recommended for pre harvest forecast due to higher R2 value and lower simulated forecast error. The time trend, maximum temperature, morning and evening relative humidity have significantly affected on crop yield. Key words: Cotton, prediction equation, forecasting, weather variables. Timely and reliable forecast of crop yield is of great meteorological standard week ( MSW) to 47th standard week importance for monsoon dependent country like India, where of each year. Four models were fitted by using original weather the economy is mainly based on agricultural production. variables based on week wise approach considering upto Climate is closely linked with crop growth, development and 17, 20, 23 and 26 weeks of crop period.
