Constraints Perceived and Suggestions Offered by the Indian Cashew Growers in Adoption of High Density Planting R
1 Plant Archives Vol. 19, Supplement 2, 2019 pp. 2426-2429 e-ISSN:2581-6063 (online), ISSN:0972-5210 CONSTRAINTS PERCEIVED AND SUGGESTIONS OFFERED BY THE INDIAN CASHEW GROWERS IN ADOPTION OF HIGH DENSITY PLANTING R. Jayasankar 1 P.R. Sivapriyan 2 and R. Muthukumar 3 1&3 Assistant Professors, 2PG Scholar, Department of Agricultural Extension, Faculty of Agriculture, Annamalai University, Annamalai nagar – 608 002, Tamil Nadu. Abstract High Density Planting (HDP) in cashew cultivation is the important innovative tool in the hands of farmers to improve the production, productivity and income. It involves less spacing, more plant population, pruning, better irrigation and nutrient management to increase the yield. Unfortunately majority of the farmers are following primitive and traditional practices in cashew. An understanding of appropriate high yielding varieties, positive HDP in cashew cultivation practices and adoption are very much needed for the present situation. An innovation to become popular among farmers, initially it has to face a lot of difficulties in terms of farmer’s understanding the concepts, developing a favourable attitude, getting the required inputs and ensuring a good extension service. Unless the constraints are identified and appropriate actions taken, the adoption level will be less. Hence the present study was aimed to assess the constraints experienced by the cashew growers in adopting the recommended HDP practices and to suggest the remedial measures to overcome those constraints. The study was conducted in Panruti and Kurinjipadi blocks of Cuddalore district in Tamil Nadu (India) and proportionate random sampling was employed to select 120 sample respondents from the eleven selected villages from the above blocks. -

Previously, the State Planning Commission has published Human Development Report for 8 districts in the past during the period 2003-2008, which was very unique of its kind. The report provided a comprehensive view of the development status of the district in terms of Health, Education, Income, Employment etc. The report would be a useful tool for adopting appropriate development strategies and to address the gaps to bring equitable development removing the disparities. After the successful completion of the same, now the State Planning Commission has again initiated the process of preparation of Human Development Report based on the current status. The initiative of State Planning Commission is applaudable as this approach has enhanced the understanding of Human Development in a better spectrum. -

Krishnasamy2, S. M. Sakthivel3 & Dr. G. Vijayakumar4 1,2,3&4Department of Civil Engineering, Excel Engineering College, Komarapalayam., Namakkal District, Tamilnadu – 637303. *Corresponding Author email address: Email: [email protected] A study was carried out to determine the groundwater quality in parts of Perumal Lake, Kurinjipadi Taluk, Cuddalore district, Tamilnadu. Totally, 12 groundwater samples were collected at different parts of study area and 16 water samples from surface reservoirs (Perumal lake) and analyzed for physicochemical parameters (pH, EC, TDS, TH, - Na, K, Ca, Mg and Cl, SO4 , HCO3 , NO3 ) in order to understand the hydro geochemistry of the water. The results of analysis were interpreted with geology and geomorphology of the area and also by various geochemical diagrams such as Piper trilinear plot and USSL classification diagram. Suitability of this water for its utility was verified using Indian standards. The result indicates irrespective of the seasons that only one well is suitable for drinking purpose, with remaining suitable for domestic and irrigation purpose. Further, from the results, it is pointed out that most of the well water falls in Na-Cl type indicating the influence of seawater in these wells which was confirmed by Piper plot. According to SAR (alkali hazard) and specific conductance (Salinity hazard) is plotted in USSL diagram, classification of water for irrigation purpose can be determined. -

This tightly knit connection calls for a Regional Plan that would benefit this region not just in the urban areas but also in the adjoining rural areas. With funding assistance from ADEME and endorsement from the Government of Puducherry, INTACH Pondicherry and PondyCAN have embarked upon an initiative to develop a Model Inter-State Sustainable Regional Plan that would help realize the full potential of the region in terms of: sustainable and balanced socio-economic growth, land use development patterns, multimodal connectivity, energy consumption, infrastructure provision and protection of natural resources. Keeping this over-arching goal in mind, the Regional Planning Framework includes the following ‘themes’ that will be addressed in this initial phase- Land Use, Transportation, Energy, and Water. Referred to as the ‘Puducherry – Viluppuram – Auroville- Cuddalore’ (PVAC), the region has been defined as the area generally bounded by the Kaluvelly Tank (Tindivanam taluk of Viluppuram District) on the north, Coromandel Coast on the east, and Perumal Lake (Kurinjipadi taluk of Cuddalore District) on the south.
