Soybean

Effect of insecticidal seed treatment on early season pests and their natural enemies : There was no outbreak of whitefly during the season. Incidence of other major insect pests during the season was low. Seed treatment with Imidacloprid 48FS @1.25 ml / kg seed and with Thiamethoxam 30FS @ 10 ml / kg seed were effective in checking the YMV infestation during the early stage of the crop. Natural enemy population was very low during the entire cropping season. Grain yield of seed treatment with Imidacloprid 48FS @1.25 ml / kg seed followed by foliar spray of Triazophos 40EC @ 800 ml / ha at 35 DOC and seed treatment with Thiamethoxam 30FS @ 10 ml / kg seed followed by foliar spray of Triazophos 40EC @ 800 ml / ha at 35 DOC were significantly higher than the untreated check. Maximum net return was obtained from seed treatment with Imidacloprid 48 FS @ 1.25 ml / kg seed + Triazophos 40EC @ 800 ml / ha at 35DOC followed by seed treatment with Imidacloprid 48FS @1.25 ml / kg seed + Flonicamid 50SWG @ 200 g / ha at 35DOC and seed treatment with Thiamethoxam 30FS @ 10 ml / kg seed followed by foliar spray of Triazophos 40EC @ 800 ml / ha at 35 DOC.

Population dynamics of whitefly and monitoring of YMD in soybean and uridbean field & Molecular study for the detection of MYMIV from whitefly : Molecular detection of MYMIV from whitefly samples were found highly viruliferous from summer-2016 and Kharif-2016 uridbean and soybean than from Rabi 2015-16. Even though, viruliferous whiteflies were available in the field, both soybean and uridbean were found to be virus free at molecular level. Virus DNA was detected in crops after 1, 2 and 3 weeks after appearance of viruliferous whiteflies in Kharif 2016-17, summer 2016-17 and Rabi-2015-16 respectively. This indicates that virus resides in its vector (whitefly) for few to several days and after attaining stability of its genome it starts infecting host. In Rabi 2015-16, Kharif-2016-17 and summer 2016-17 seasons number of viruliferous whitefly was directly proportional to number of MYMIV infected plants. Molecular markers CP and DNA-B specific used for detection of viruliferous whitefly and crops (soybean and uridbean) were found to be most suitable for detection. The YMD infection percentage (IP) was recorded from the Rabi (2.22 to 38.89% and 2.22 to 40%), summer (3.33 to 94.45% and 5.56 to 98.89%) and Kharif (1.85 to 97.04% and 2.96 to 100%) seasons in soybean and uridbean. The overall incidence of YMD was observed significantly more susceptible to YMD than soybean during all the seasons.

Sesame: Management of Antigastra: Among 202 entries range of damage due to Antigastra at vegetative stage was 0 to 50%, however at maturity it was resistant for all the entries. Against bud fly incidence, 135 entries were resistant, 40 moderately resistance, 20 moderately susceptible and 7 susceptible. Agro-ecosystem analysis in sesame revealed that incidence of Antigastra started in the third week of July (29th meteorological week) with 9.00% plant damage and 0.07 larvae per plant and then increased up to 0.16 larvae per

19

plant in 32nd meteorological week. Whereas, incidence of bud fly started in 34th meteorological week with maximum incidence in 35th meteorological week i.e., 2.45 maggot/plant. Incidence of sucking pests viz., jassid, whitefly and mirid bug were at peak during 34th, 35th and 33th meteorological week (0.67 jassid, 3.44 whitefly & 0..84 mirid bug per plant), respectively.

IPM module for management of major insect pests: It showed minimum (0.80%) flower damage due to leaf roller/capsule borer in seed treatment with imidacloprid 600 FS (5g/kg seed)+Intercropping with uridbean (3:3) + foliar spray of Profenofos 0.1% (2ml/liter) (30 DAS) followed by Seed treatment with imidacloprid 600 FS (5g/kg seed)+Intercropping with uridbean (3:3)followed by foliar spray of Profenofos 0.1% (2ml/liter)(30 DAS ) (0.81) and was maximum in untreated plot (2.17).

The availability of sulphur and phosphorus was better with 75% RDF through organic sources (Poultry manure) + 25% through natural sources + Biofertilizers (Rhizobium + PSB) and with 100% RDF through natural sources +5 t Cow Dung on the crops soybean, wheat and chickpea.

Delineation of micro and secondary nutrient deficient and toxic areas and updating soil fertility map: During 2016-17 a total of 306 GPS based surface soil samples (0-15 cm) were collected across Betul district and analyzed. It was found that pH, EC, OC and CaCO3 in soils samples ranged from 6.88 to 7.19, 0.26 to 0.42 dSm-1, 0.70 to 13.95 g kg-1 and 5.0- 100 g kg-1 with mean values of 7.04, 0.34 dSm-1, 5.94 g kg-1 and 34.59 g kg-1 respectively. Further, it was found that 31.7, 39.2, 13.1 and 13.3 per cent soil samples collected from Betul district were found deficient in S, Zn, B and Fe, respectively but none of the soil samples were found deficient in Cu and Mn. Also a total of 303 GPS based surface soil samples from Jhabua district were collected and analyzed and results showed that pH, EC, -1 -1 OC and CaCO3 varied from 5.42 to 7.95, 0.05 to 0.58 dSm , 1.04 to 13.92 g kg and 5.0 to 125.0 gkg-1 with mean values of 6.86, 0.21 dSm-1, 5.14 gkg-1 and 53.33 g kg-1, respectively. In soils of Jhabua district, the available S, Zn, Cu, Fe and Mn varied from 1.11 to 88.05, 0.10 to 3.54, 0.36 to 10.58, 2.78 to 50.19 and 3.35 to 46.42 mg kg-1 with mean values of 27.90, 0.67, 4.40, 25.78 and 32.39 mg kg-1, respectively. It was also found that 20.13 and 56.11 per cent soil samples were found low in S and Zn, respectively. While, None of the soil samples were found deficient in available Fe, Cu and Mn across the district.

Nutrient indexing for forecasting emerging nutrient deficiency in different agro- ecological regions: Under the nutrient indexing programme for forecasting the emerging nutrient deficiencies, data on yield of rice was recorded from permanent fields of three benchmark sites (village clusters viz. Udna, Khamaria and Magarmuha) in Jabalpur district. The mean highest grain and straw yield of rice were found to be 5.55 and 8.88 t ha-1 in Magarmuha, respectively. In Udna and Khamaria, the grain and straw yield were recorded to be 5.01 and 7.45 and 4.90 and 6.84 t ha-1, respectively. The Zn content in grain (16.37, 15.52 and 13.21 mgkg-1) was analyzed in Udna, Magarmuha and Khamaria, respectively. The mean Cu and Fe uptake followed the order of Udna> Magarmuha > Khamaria and Khamria > Magarmuha > Udna. While the Zn and Mn uptake followed the order of Magarmuha> Udna>Khamaria. The mean uptake of Zn, Cu, Fe and Mn 219.21 g ha-1, 56.27 g ha-1, 934.96 g ha-1 and 747.73 g ha-1 by rice crop in Jabalpur NID.

Effect of phasing and levels of zinc application in soybean-wheat cropping sequence: Zn application on alternate year increased the seed yield by 19.42% over single year and 5.0 kg Zn ha-1 application significantly increased seed yield by 23.78% over control (1.24 t ha-1). With the increasing levels up to 10 kg Zn ha-1 at each year application significantly increased the Zn concentration in seed and stover over control. The higher release of Zn fractions were observed with the each year Zn application and 10 kg Zn ha-1 and produced higher Zn release. Available Zn in soils increased with applied Zn. The alternate year application of 5 -1 kg Zn ha (25 kg Zn SO4.7H2O) gave the optimum yield and good quality produce as well as bio-available pool of Zn in soil. Alternate year application of Zn significantly increased the wheat grain yield (4.76 tha-1) over single (4.38 tha-1) and each year (4.47 t ha-1) Zn application. The highest grain and straw yield (4.93 and 8.80 t ha-1) was with application of 5.0 kg Zn ha-1. However, residual effect of applied Zn significantly increased the wheat yield with increasing levels up to 10 kg Zn ha-1, but 2.5, 5.0, and 7.5 kg Zn ha-1 were found at par

21

among themselves. Effect of Zn application on each year significantly increased Zn concentration in grain, straw and soil over single year and residual effect on Zn content in grain and straw of wheat and in soil was also significant. Zn content in wheat grain with 7.5 and 10 kg Zn ha-1 were found significantly higher to those at 2.5 and 5.0 kg Zn ha-1 but 7.5 and 10 kg Zn ha-1 were found at par.

Effect of phasing and levels of B application in soybean-wheat cropping sequence: Soybean yield was significantly affected by B application and highest seed (1.48 t ha-1) and stover (2.12 t ha-1) yields were obtained with 1.5 kg B ha-1 applied in alternate year. Concentration of B in seed and stover of soybean was significantly influenced by phasing and levels of B application. It has been concluded that alternate year application of 1.5 kg B ha-1 was found optimal for soybean. The residual effect of B application on wheat yield, B content in grain and soil was found significant. Among the different B levels, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 kg B ha-1 were found significantly superior over control and 0.5 kg B ha-1 and highest wheat yield (5.02 t ha-1) was recorded with application of 1.0 kg B ha-1.

Long term fertilizer experiment: to study changes in soil quality, crop productivity and sustainability Grain yield of wheat: Successive additions of fertilizer from sub optimal to optimal and optimal to super optimal doses resulted in progressive increase in the productivity of wheat. While, addition of organic manure with optimal fertilizer dose enhanced the yield about 10 per cent over optimal dose.

Fig. Effect of long term fertilizer application on soybean and wheat crops Imbalance application of 100% N alone was at par with control. Application of P fertilizer along with N (NP treatment) had further increases grain yield of wheat. While application of K with NP (100% NPK) enhances grain yield over 100% NP alone. Omission of sulphur i.e., 100% NPK-S had considerably declined the yield of wheat. These findings indicate that balanced application of 100% NPKS through fertilizer produced the higher yield over imbalanced fertilizer. While, integrated use of optimal dose of fertilizer and organic manure was superior over 100% NPK and even 150% NPK application to sustain the fertility of soil and subsequent productivity of crops. Effect of superimposition of FYM: The maximum values of OC, available N, P, K and S were in the treatment 150% NPK + 10t FYM ha-1. The highest yield of soybean and wheat was obtained with application of 150%NPK supplemented with 10t ha-1 FYM while, the lowest in balance amount of 150% NPK.

Micro and Secondary Nutrients and Pollutant Elements in Soil and Plants

Delineation of micro and secondary nutrient deficient and toxic areas and updating soil fertility map: Analysis of 306 GPS based surface soil samples (0-15 cm) from district Betul revealed that pH ranged from 6.88 to 7.19 (7.04), EC0.26 to 0.42 dSm-1 (0.34 dSm-1), -1 -1 -1 -1 OC 0.70 to 13.95 g kg (5.94 g kg ) and CaCO3 5.0-100 g kg (34.59 g kg ). 31.7% samples collected from district Betul were deficient in S, 39.2% in Zn, 13.1% in B and 13.3% in Fe but none of the soil samples were deficient in Cu and Mn.

Nutrient indexing for forecasting emerging nutrient deficiency in different agro- ecological regions: Plant samples collected and analyzed for nutrient content from permanent fields of three benchmark sites (village clusters viz., Udna, Khamaria and Magarmuha) of district Jabalpur showed the highest mean grain (5.55 t ha-1 ) and straw yield (8.88 t ha-1 ) of rice at Magarmuha. The Zn content (mgkg-1) in grain varies from 16.37 in Udna, 15.52 in Magarmuha mgkg-1 and 13.21 in Khamaria. The order for mean uptake of Cu is Udna> Magarmuha > Khamaria and for Fe Khamria > Magarmuha > Udna. While the Zn and Mn uptake followed the order of Magarmuha> Udna>Khamaria. The mean uptake of Zn is 219.21 g ha-1, Cu 56.27 g ha-1, Fe 934.96 g ha-1 and Mn 747.73 g ha-1 by rice at Jabalpur NID.

Effect of phasing and levels of zinc application in soybean-wheat cropping sequence: Application of Zn on alternate year increases the seed yield of soybean by 19.42% over single year and application of 5.0 kg Zn ha-1 23.78% over control (1.24 t ha-1). Zn concentration in seed and stover over control increases significantly with the increase in levels of application up to 10 kg Zn ha-1 at each year. High release of Zn fractions were observed with application of 10 kg Zn ha-1 in each year. Available Zn in soils increases with applied Zn. It has been concluded that the alternate year application of 5 kg Zn ha-1 (25 kg Zn SO4.7H2O) gave the optimum yield and good quality produce as well as bio-available pool of Zn in soil.

Alternate year application of Zn significantly increases grain yield (4.76 tha-1) of wheat over single (4.38 tha-1) and each year (4.47 t ha-1) Zn application. The highest grain and straw yield (4.93 and 8.80 t ha-1) were achieved with application of 5.0 kg Zn ha-1. However, residual effect of applied Zn significantly increased the wheat yield with increasing levels up to 10 kg Zn ha-1. Effect of Zn application on each year significantly increased Zn concentration in grain, straw and soil over single year. Zn content in wheat grain with 7.5 and 10 kg Zn ha-1 were significantly higher to those at 2.5 and 5.0 kg Zn ha-1.

Effect of phasing and levels of B application in soybean-wheat cropping sequence: The residual effect of B application on wheat yield, B content in grain and soil was found significant. Among the different B levels, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 kg B ha-1 were found significantly superior over control and 0.5 kg B ha-1 with highest wheat yield (5.02 t ha-1) with application of 1.0 kg B ha-1.

Micronutrients in soil-plant-animal-human continuum: Study on micronutrients transformation in soil-plant-human continuum was conducted on 965 samples (soil-237, grain-939, straw-242 and human blood-108) across tribal villages of Bhimpur and Ghoradongri blocks of Betul revealed that average Zn and Fe contents in soils have positive correlation with content in grain and blood samples. Therefore, to ensure the quality produce and human health, nutrients status in soil has to be maintained.

Discrimination capabilities of DNA barcoding markers in Lamiaceae family: In terms of inter-specific and intra-specific variations all the tested barcode loci showed distinct gap between maximum intra-specific and minimum inter-specific distance except atpF-atpH loci in group I. In atpF-atpH loci maximum intra-specific and minimum inter-specific distances were overlapped and due to this atpF-atpH loci failed to discriminate the species in group I. Species resolution ability of all the barcode loci were established based on barcode gap, BLASTn and NJ tree methods. All the tested loci exhibited 100% species resolution in group II and group III except trnH-psbA. The trnH-psbA loci showed only 50% species resolution in group III using BLASTn method. In group I species, resolution ability of each barcode loci varied to each other. Only matK loci showed 100% results applying all the three method for species resolution. The next well performer barcode loci in terms of species identification was trnL in group I followed by trnH-psbA, atpF-atpH and rbcL. The species resolution ability of atpF-atpH and rbcL on the basis of barcode distance method were worst among all the tested loci in this group as these two loci failed to resolve any species in group I. The present study revealed matK to be the best DNA barcode affording highest species resolution in all three groups using all the three species identification methods.

Identification and conservation of Cyperus spp.:: A total of 82 sedge plants were collected from 21 different places covering 7 states of India. The plant species and morphological variations among different species were determined based on overall plant growth characteristics. The samples were identified as belonging to 17 different species of Cyperus and related genera on the basis of UPGMA cluster analysis using Jaccard and Simple Matching coefficients. The mantel test coefficient of 0.97169 between these two similarity coefficients was found significant. Several morphological traits were assessed for identification of plants up to species level, among those spikelet was found the best to be used for the identification of sedge species. DNA barcoding of the collected sedge plant samples was done using 4 plastid based barcode loci viz., rbcL, matK, trnH-psbA and ycf1(b). Barcode locirbcL generated 36 barcodes of length 314-347bp, matK in 17 samples of length 540-826bp,trnH-psbAin 14 samples of length 856-883bp, while ycf1(b) in only three samples of length 688-793bp. All the barcode sequences were deposited in GenBank and given accession numbers. Similarity based searches by BLASTn and BOLD plant identification tools revealed 17 unique species specific barcodes generated in present study which has not been reported in the GenBank for the same locus and species. In present study, for the first time, barcode of ycf1(b) has been generated for Cyperus spp. Similarity analysis in TaxonDNA program using DNA barcode sequence data for rbcL, matK, trnH- psbA and the concatenated dataset for rbcL+matK, rbcL+trnH-psbA, matK+trnH-psbA and rbcL+matK+trnH-psbA led to the correct identification rate of 67% by best close match method for the combined barcode rbcL+matK. Based on UPGMA and Maximum parsimony analysis rbcL+matK was found the best barcode loci followed by matK and trnH-psbA resolving monophyletic cluster for all the individual species. Barcode gap analyses based on inter and intraspecific divergence revealed trnH-psbA as best barcode locus exhibiting barcode gap. The rbcL+matK were found the best barcode loci for DNA barcoding in Cyperus spp.

Development of regeneration protocol for Panicum sumatrence using mature seed and leaf base explants: A 90 days regeneration protocol has been established for little millet cultivars C.G. kutki-1. Among two explants, mature seeds explant was found to be better than leaf base segments for establishment of callus cultures. The maximum callus induction (52.22%) was obtained on medium fortified with 4 mg/l 2-4,D. For shoot induction from callus cultures, MS medium fortified with 1.5 mg/l BAP exhibited maximum regeneration response (55.75%) with 4.36 shoots per callus after one month of incubation. The regenerated shoots were separated and inoculated vertically on MS medium fortified with basal media, and various levels of two different auxins. Maximum roots per shoot (4.1) with highest root length (3.01cm) were obtained on MS medium fortified with 0.25 mg/l IAA after 15 days of incubation. Effect of medium for root induction response was found non-significant so it is concluded that all root induction medium have similar effect of root induction response (100%). After successful root induction, plants were carefully washed and transplanted into sterile mixture of cocopeat for acclimatization. After one month of hardening, healthy plants with normal growth and morphology were obtained. As per literature available, it is the first report of regeneration of little millet using any regeneration system. This method can be applicable in the development of transgenic little millet lines.

In vitro regeneration of Coleus aeromaticus using leaf explants and nodal segments: Efforts were made to develop a rapid, reliable and efficient plant tissue culture protocol for C. aromaticus through indirect and direct regeneration system. For callus induction, leaf disc explants were used whereas multiple shoot induction was obtained through nodal segment explants. For explant sterilization, 0.3% HgCl2 for 3 min was used as at this concentration, incidence of contamination was 4.4% and non-viable seeds were only 3.7 %. MS medium with different concentration of 2,4-D, BAP and Kinetin were used for callus induction from leaf disc explants. Maximum callus induction (74.44%) was obtained MS medium fortified with 3mg/l 2,4-D followed by 62.22% on MS medium with 4mg/l 2,4-D after 45 days of 36

incubation. After 45 days of incubation, callus culture obtained from leaf disc explants were transferred MS medium with BAP. Globular structures were formed on the surface of the callus cultures and separated structures from callus cultures exhibited rhizogenesis only. These cultures were failed to develop shoots. Nodal segments were used for multiple shoot induction using MS medium with BAP and kinetin. The highest regeneration response (42.22 %) with 3.11 shoot per explants was obtained on medium fortified with 1 mg/l BAP followed by 33.33% regeneration response with 2.31 shoots per explants on MS medium fortified with 2 mg/l BAP. At optimum height of 3-4cm, clumps of shoots were separated and inoculated on MS medium fortified with different concentrations of IAA and IBA. Maximum numbers of root per shoot (5.78) were obtained on MS medium fortified with 0.25mg/l IBA with average length of 5.35cm followed by 4.47 roots per shoot with 3.80cm on MS medium supplemented with 0.25mg/l IAA. After sufficient root induction, plantlets were carefully transplanted in soil for hardening. The present investigation has developed a rapid and reliable procedure for regeneration of plantlets of C. aromaticus.

Identification and characterization of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria from leguminous plants (under DIC project): Thirty PGPR strains were identified and characterized for various plant promoting traits. The isolates showed multiple PGP traits such as IAA production, ammonia production, ACC deaminase activity, phosphate,zinc, potassium solubilization, HCN production and siderophore production. PGPR strains were also evaluated for tolerance towards high salinity and drought using different concentrations of NaCl and PEG in the medium and results suggest that these strains could be useful for amelioration of above stress in various plants. The evaluation of PGPR traits in various plants is under process.

Polymorphism of Alternaria: The genomic DNA of 5 Alternaria accessions collected from different places and maintained at Biotechnology Centre, JNKVV, Jabalpur was isolated by a simple and rapid DNA extraction protocol and subjected to amplification with 16 ISSR primers in Agilent Master Cycler Gradient. Amplified products were resolved by electrophoresis on 1.5% agarose gel and photographed under gel documentation system. Out of 50 bands, 32 were found to be polymorphic and 18 were monomorphic using ISSR marker. The cluster analysis of ISSR markers grouped all the Alternaria genotypes in two groups. Major group A divided into two sub groups, first contained two accessions namely 1and 4 and the second only two accessions 3 and 5. Group B contains only one accession 2. These accessions were found to be diverse from other accessions and placed at end of the cluster. According to Jaccard’s similarity coefficient, highest similarity was found between 3 and 5. Both genotypes were grouped together.

The overall genetic diversity of a taxon has great implications for its long-term survival and evolution. Therefore, knowledge of the levels and patterns of genetic diversity is important for designing conservation strategies for threatened and endangered species. Considerable level of genetic diversity observed with ISSR markers among Alternaria accessions tested, the information derived in this study can help in identification.

Genetic diversity in Indian Barnyard millet [Echinochloa frumentacea (L.)]: To isolate the genomic DNA, 48 E. frumentacea genotypes were obtained from the All India Coordinated Minor Millet Improvement Project, College of Agriculture, Rewa collected from the different regions of India. Isolated DNA samples were subjected to amplification with 40 RAPD primers in a thermal cycler. Amplified products were resolved by electrophoresis on 1.2% agarose gel and photographed under the gel documentation system. Out of 65 a total of 40 decamer primers amplified 182 RAPD marker loci. Out of 182 alleles, 170 (93.40%) were found to be polymorphic and remaining 12 were monomorphic. On an average, 4.55 alleles per primer and 4.25 polymorphic alleles per primer were obtained. Specific alleles were amplified by the primers OPN-3, OPN-7 and OPN-13 separating concerned genotype or accession from the remaining. The cluster analysis grouped genotypes into two clusters. First cluster contained 47 genotypes that divided into two sub groups, first subgroup ‘A’ containing four genotypes and subgroup ‘B’ of 43 genotypes. Subgroup B was further classified into Subgroup C containing one genotype and Subgroup D containing 42 genotypes. Minor group (Group 1) contained only one genotype PCGB 27. According to Jaccard’s similarity coefficient, highest similarity was between PCGB 39 and PCGB 40 (93.3%). Knowledge of the levels and patterns of genetic diversity is important for designing conservation strategies for threatened and endangered species. Higher level of genetic diversity observed among E. frumentacea accessions with RAPD markers. The information derived in this study can helpful in identification of diverse parents for crop improvement.

Utilization of waste potatoes for bioethanol production using co-culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Aspergillus awamori: To analyze the major chemical constituents of waste potatoes collected from different locations, optimize the fermentation variables for better yield of bioethanol using co-culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Aspergillus awamori and quality evaluation of bioethanol produced. In the first of study, major chemical constituents of waste potatoes were analysed. The result analysed showed that the waste potatoes were found to contain good amount of carbohydrate source required for bioconversion into bioethanol. In second part of study, main fermentation variables were optimized in solid state fermentation (SSF) and simultaneous Saccharification and fermentation (SiSF) methods. For obtaining better recovery of bioethanol, three levels of incubation temperatures (28,30 and 32°C) and four levels of incubation periods (120, 144, 168 and192 hr) with 20 g substrate and 80 ml distilled water were employed for solid state fermentation (SSF) whereas in simultaneous Saccharification and fermentation (SiSF), four levels of pH (5.5, 6.0,6.5 and 7.0), three levels of temperatures (28,30 and 32°C) and four levels of incubation periods (120, 144, 168 and 192 hrs) were employed with 5 g substrate and 96 ml distilled water for bioethanol production using co-culture. The results of various experiments revealed that with the SSF technique the highest yield of bioethanol (6.7%) using co-culture of Saccharomyces cerevisiae MTCC 170 and Aspergillus awamori MTCC 8840 was obtained at incubation temperature of 30°C after 168 hr of incubation. In case of simultaneous Saccharification and fermentation (SiSF), the results of various experiments revealed that by employing co-culture the highest yield of bioethanol (5.2%) was obtained at a pH of 6.0 with incubation temperature of 30°C after 168 hr of incubation period. In third part of this study on quality evaluation of bioethanol produced from above mentioned, various quality attributes such as density, viscosity, and boiling point of the bioethanol produced were assessed.

Callus induction and regeneration using different explants of barnyard millet (Echinochloa frumentacea Roxb.): In this investigation, a 90 days regeneration protocol has been established for barnyard millet cultivars CO2, PRJ1 and VL2. Among two explants, mature seeds explant was found to be better than leaf base segments for establishment of callus cultures. The maximum callus induction (75.56%) was obtained on medium fortified with 5 mg/l 2-4,D. Among three genotypes, genotype CO2 was found best for callus induction. For shoot induction from callus cultures, MS medium fortified with 0.5 mg/l BAP 38

exhibited maximum regeneration response (75.41%) with 5.79 shoots per callus after one month of incubation. The regenerated shoots were separated and inoculated vertically on MS medium fortified with basal media, half strength MS media and various levels of three different auxins. Maximum roots per shoot (10.76) with highest root length (5.39 cm) were obtained on MS medium fortified with 0.25 mg/l IBA after 15 days of incubation. Effect of medium for root induction response was found non-significant so it is concluded that all root induction medium have similar effect of root induction response (%).After successful root induction, plants were carefully washed and transplanted into mixture of sand, soil and vermicompost for acclimatization. After one month of hardening, healthy plants with normal growth and morphology were obtained.

Morpho-Physiological Changes and Gene Expression under Drought Condition in Soybean: Present study concluded that screening techniques for drought tolerance must involve morpho-physiological, biochemical and molecular mechanisms since various genes expressed under osmotic stress conditions in soybean which may be linked with the defence responses. Morpho-physiological and biochemical approaches used during the present study are the attractive ways to identify and develop drought tolerant new genotypes since it involves various adaptive mechanisms to cope against the drought stress. Genotypes with high genetic distance revealed with highly polymorphic SSR markers can be used for crop improvement programme using hybridization and will be useful for efficient screening of the germplasm by saturating more regions of the soybean genome. During the present study, a cDNA-AFLP technique was used for the first time in soybean for transcript differential expression in drought. Gene expression of dreb1, rbcl pip and sgr genes provides accurate and sensitive relative quantification of gene transcript levels, even for those genes with expressed fairly low transcript levels in response to changes in environmental conditions. The qRT-PCR technique has demonstrated its potential for further use in expression analysis of other candidate genes involved in soybean against water stress. Overall the genotypes JS 20-95 and JS 97-52 proved to be water stress tolerant with suitable cellular response to avoid water deficit damage through more than a few mechanisms.

Respondents started using soybean for food use mainly for roti making besides soy nuts and cookies at the level of 20-30 % in their daily diet.

Enhancement of shelf life of maize and small millet based food products by radiation processing : Various food products such as porridge, flour, rice and grits were prepared with local varieties of maize (JM-216) and small millets (Kodo millets: DPS-107, DPS-92, Dhangaon, kodoCO-2, SVT-3, SVT-4, JK-1, JK-98, JK-39, JK-155, RK-137; Little millet: Sheetalpani, DLM-103; Finger millet – VL-149, JPU-45) and packed in LDPE bags and stored at ambient temperature. Samples were irradiated with different doses i.e. 0.75, 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0 kGy of EB radiation at RRCAT, Indore and gamma radiation at BARC, Mumbai. The EPR dosimetry method used for dosimetry. Majority of the varieties were of intermediate gelatinization temperature. A slight change in nutritional and hunter color analysis was observed in irradiated samples whereas insect infestation was not observed in both the irradiated & un-irradiated small millet samples during storage. Red reft flour beetle (Tribolium castenium) was observed only in un-irradiated sample of JM-216 after 6 months of storage. Total plate count of irradiated samples decreased with increase in radiation doses but slightly increased during storage. Cooking time varied significantly among the small millet and maize varieties ranging from 10-20 min. Little millet, rice, maize porridge took the shortest time (10min.) while, kodo and finger millet took 15 min and maize grits took longest time i.e., 20 min. Water uptake during cooking and solids in cooking water was greater in most of the irradiated samples as compared to non-irradiated samples. Majority of the varieties were of intermediate gelatinization temperature. Baseline Study on Demographic and Health pattern in and around the proposed Atomic Power Plant at Chutka: Survey work have been completed in 30 villages of Bargi , Ghansaur and Seoni area where.

Value addition and quality enhancement of by-products of pulse milling industry by extrusion cooking technology: The extrudates were prepared from Rice, Pigeonpea and Chickpea blends. The extruder used was Barbender single screw extruder (laboratory model) with die diameter opening of 5 mm. Extrusion was carried out of 5 levels of blending ratio(70:25:5, 70:20:10, 49

70:15:15, 70:10:20 and 70:5:25), 5 levels of moisture content (10%, 12%, 14%, 16%, and 18% )5 levels of barrel temperature (1300C, 1400C, 1500C, 1600C and 170 0C), 5 levels of die head temperature (1800C, 1900C, 2000C, 2100C and 220 0C) and 5 levels of screw speed(60 rpm, 70 rpm, 80 rpm, 90 rpm and 100 rpm). The properties of the products obtained were evaluated. After analyzing all the attributes for Physical parameters like; sectional expansion index, longitudinal expansion index, volumetric expansion index, and bulk density and texture characteristics like; crispness, hardness and cutting strength, protein estimation and organoleptic test, it was concluded that best quality extrudates (products) were obtained at 70: 20: 10 blending ratio, 12% moisture content, 160o C barrel temperature, 210o C die head temperature and 90 rpm screw speed.

Agro-meteorology Analysis of south-west monsoon 2016: South west monsoon was deficit in Chhattisgarh plains ( -30%), while excess in Kymore plateau and Satpura hills ( 26 %), Vindhyan plateau ( 34 %), Central Narmada Valley ( 27 %), and Malwa plateau ( 22 %) agro- climatic zones . It was normal (0 ±20 %) in the remaining zones. A long-term data from 2004-2016 suggest a monsoon with deficit rainfall in Chhattisgarh plains and Northern hill zone of Chhattisgarh (-12 %), Bundelkhand zone (-14.6 %) and Gird zone (-8.2 %), while highe rains were observed in Malwa plateau (11.7 %) and Jhabua hills (12.3 %). Rainfall probability analysis of Bundelkhand zone: Trend analysis of annual rainfall and rainy days of Datia, Tikamgarh and Chhattarpur district of Bundelkhand zone suggest an increase in annual rainfall and rainy days. Rainfall probability analysis suggests a good moisture regime from 21-40 meteorological weeks receiving an average rainfall of 70-80 mm. Even at 75% probability level, this zone receives 20-30 mm rain during 23-37 weeks. Runoff harvesting can be planned during 24-36 weeks with crops sown having medium water requirements during kharif season. Initial probabilities of receiving rainfall are moderate from June-September weeks, indicating a good moisture period. Similarly, conditional probability of consecutive wet weeks exhibit less variation that will be helpful in planning for field preparation and sowing time under water stressed condition.

Soybean: For soybean, sowing windows near from June 15- 30 is the optimum for attaining maximum yield in soybean varieties with higher heat Use Efficiency and Radiation Use Efficiency. Both absorbed photosynthetically active radiation and intercepted photosynthetically active radiation higher during physiological maturity which may be due to higher solar radiation and temperature during physiological maturity stage. Fifteen genetic coefficients were analysed using CROPGRO- Soybean model of JS 20- 29 variety. Validation suggests coefficients give accuracy in predicting seed yield with 50

fewer RMSE (66-189 kg/ha) except June 17 sowing dates (426 kg/ha). Climate change scenario suggest improvement in seed yield by 2020 however RCP 8.5 scenario of 2050 suggest a decrease in seed yield by 0.02- 5% of this variety.

Rice: At physiological maturity stage, accumulated Growing degree day (GDD) of Kranti > IR36> Sahbhagi at first sown date (June 21as D1). Similarly was the studies at second (July 6 s D2) and third (July 21 as D3) sown dates however GDD reduced with minimum heat unit absorbed as D3>D3>D1 sown dates. Among varieties, medium-maturing (120- 130 DAS) Kranti and IR36 Varieties absorbed more heat units (>2000 0C day) than early maturing Sahbhagi (100-105 DAS) variety with a GDD of 1682 0C day. Among date of sowing, D1 exhibit 118 days followed by D2 (106 days) and D3 (101 days) to attain physiological maturity. Similarly, GDD was high as per D1>D2>D3 sown dates as D1=2035 0C day, D2= 1779 0C day; D3= 1655 0C day heat unit accumulation at physiological maturity. Similarly among varieties, Sahbhagi matures early with 1727 0C day fallowed by IR 36 (1838 0C day) and Kranti (1904 0C day) GDD heat unit accumulation. Correlation Coefficient between seed yield and weather parameters with minimum temperature and RH morning exhibit a significant correlation during germination in rice. Similarly maximum and minimum temperatures, sunshine hours, helio thermal unit , RH evening and evaporation exhibit a significant correlation at germination to tillering stage in rice. During vegetative stage, sunshine hours, GDD, PTU, rainfall and rainy days exhibit significant correlation for seed yield.

Chickpea: Accumulated growing degree day at physiological maturity for Nov 11sown chickpea was (1366 oC day); Nov. 25 sown was(1327 oC day) and Dec 13 sown was (1305 oC day).Heat unit accumulation of different chickpea species exhibits kabuli matures early with 1295 oC day; followed by deshi (1340 oC day) and gulabi species (1363 oC day). There was no difference among ammonium molybdate application among sowing dates and species type. Correlation studies were analyzed between chickpea seed yield and weather parameters at different phenological stages suggests that both maximum and minimum temperatures exhibit a negative correlation from sowing to branching, and afterward observed a positive association to maturity. Bright sunshine hours observed a negative correlation from sowing to flower initiation however it exhibit positive association till maturity. Similarly, both relative humidity observed a negative association from flowering to maturity. A project was established to assess water use among direct seeded rice, SRI and transplanted rice. Also assess the weed flora occurrence in these systems. Crop yield -weather forecasting of rice, wheat and mustard were completed using statistical models (linear multiple regression model) for the 11 districts (Jabalpur, Seoni, Mandla, Satna, Shahdol, Umariya, Panna, Rewa, Balaghat, Sidhi and Narshingpur) of Madhya Pradesh during pre-flowering and before harvesting stages in both the seasons. Weather based agromet advisories issued two times per weeks of major 14 districts of eastern Madhya Pradesh with weather forecast and agricultural practices to be applied in the field based on forecasting output. A block level study of weather based agromet services in Nowgaon block of Chhattarpur district under NICRA programme. Case study of soybean farmer exhibits an increase in income by Rs. 6149/- after accepting advisories. Four farmers awareness programme on climate change was organized in Khajri, SIluaa, Podi, and Belakhadu villages of Jabalpur and Katni districts. Similarly, one field day was

51

organized at JNKVV, Jabalpur regarding the dissemination of developed technologies in rice and soybean to avert climate change problems in the field. Instrumentation An improved seed drill choke indicator: A new device has been developed to remove the choking problems by online monitoring of seeding activity and removal of choking channels whenever it occurs. The improved seed cum fertilizer drill choke indicator will be an attachment to the seed cum fertilizer drill available in the market. This innovation enhances the accuracy of seeding and fertilizer placement of the classical seed cum fertilizer drill. Three prototypes of seed drill choke indicator got fabricated. The developed system demonstrated at “JNKVV Kishan Mela on 01/10/2016”, trainees of Agriculture Extension on 5.10.2016 & trainees of Agri-clinic and Agri-business on 14.12.2016, Peer Monitoring and Review Team of ICAR on 8.11.016.

Cost of Cultivation Cost of Cultivation of Principal Crops of Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh: Estimated cost of cultivation per hectare and cost of production per quintal of principal crops is Madhya Pradesh Total District covered = 40 Total Tehsil covered under study = 45 Total Cluster Villages covered under study = 48 Total number of Holding covered in study on different five size group = 450

Chhattisgarh Total District covered = 15 Total Tehsil covered under study = 15 Total Cluster Villages covered under study = 15 Total number of Holding covered in study on different five size group = 150

Marketing Intelligence Price forecasting of selected crops in Madhya Pradesh: The price forecasting of selected crops (Soybean, Maize, Chickpea, Pigeon pea and Rapeseed-Mustard) made during pre-sowing and pre-harvesting periods is given wide publicity through Local News Papers, Kisan Call Centres ATIC etc. The forecasted prices are: S.No. Particular Pre-sowing Pre-harvesting 1 Soybean 3700-4000 3488-3696 2 Maize 1150-1250 1161-1204 3 Arhar 3650-3750 3841-4061 4 Chickpea 2250-2750 2373-2378 5 Mustard 3150-3290 3180-3312 52

Market Integration and volatility in Soybean price in Madhya Pradesh: Madhya Pradesh is leading state in soybean production and claim first position in India. The soybean has registered significant growth in area and yield during the last decade. Despite this promising growth the import of edible oil was very high hovering between 60-70% of total agriculture import of India. Due to high import dependence domestic edible oil price remain highly correlated to the movement in the international prices and this has resulted in volatility n the domestic prices. Commodity price volatility is not a new problem but has grown in the wake of liberalization and globalization process. The open trade regime enabled India to capture emerging opportunities in the world market and also exposed the domestic economy to the risks of fluctuating world prices. High seasonal indices of market arrivals of soybean immediate after harvest against lower value during March to September indicate lean period in soybean for markets of Madhya Pradesh. Lower soybean price indices values were observed during October to March i.e., post harvest months when the crops arrive in the market in large quantity. The highest value of price indices was observed during lean period and lowest arrivals months i.e., May to September. Granger causality test revealed that there was a bidirectional influence on price of Mandsaur and Astha; Shajapur and Ashtha; and Mandsaur and Dewas. There was a unidirectional influence on price of Dewas and Ashtha; Indore and Ashtha; Indore and Dewas; Shajapur and Dewas; Mandsaur and Indore; and Shajapur and Indore market. Impact of Neem-Coated Urea (NCU) on the production and productivity of major crops in Madhya Pradesh: Study on 200 rice growers of Balaghat and Seoni, and 200 soybean growers of Khargone and Dhar districts showed positive impact of NCU on yield and probability of crops. Use of NCU reduced the application expenditure of nitrogen by Rs. 26/acre and found more profitable as compared to NU with benefit cost ratio of 2.47. The impact of NCU was significant in terms of yield of main and value of main and by product i.e., Rs. 2816/acre. Farmers Suicide: Study on 50 households related to victims family of Rewa district of Madhya Pradesh revealed that due to effective implementation of the various agricultural and rural development programmes of the Central and State Government farmers’ suicides were reduced from 1445 (2003) to 826 (2014) with the magnitude of -44.34 person per year. The present intensity of farmers suicides (2014-15) was found to be only 5.36 suicides per lakh of net area sown & 3.34 suicides per lakh of gross cropped area, and only 8.39 farmer suicides over per lakh of farming family. The social causes viz., family problems and commitments (illness (46%) and drug abuse (32%), fall in social reputation (22%), frequent quarrel among the family members (20%)) followed by marriage (extra marital affairs (36%) and love failure (16%)) were found to be major causes of famer suicides in Madhya Pradesh. Poverty and property dispute were not found to be major cause of suicide in the area under study. Natural calamities viz., failure of rainfall, occurrence of drought, accidental fire and inability to sell output were other minor causes of suicides as 8, 6 and 2 per cent of respondents respectively. Study on 50 households related to victims family of Surajpur district of Chhattisgarh revealed that due to effective implementation of the various agricultural and rural development programmes of the Governments farmers’ suicides were reduced from 1452 (2003) to 854(2014) with the magnitude of -87.82 person per year. The present intensity of farmers suicides (2014-15) was only 20.49 suicides per lakh of net area sown and 16.74 suicides per lakh of gross cropped area, while only 23.95 farmer suicides over per lakh of farming family. The social causes viz., family problems and commitments (drug abuse (58%) and illness (44%), frequent quarrel among the family members (36 %), fall in social reputation (24%) and gambling / betting/ chit –fund) followed by marriage related issues (extra marital affairs 28%) are the major causes of farmer suicides.

Poverty and property dispute were not found to be major cause of suicide in the area under study. Problems and prospects of production of climate resilient crops (small millets) and their value added products in Madhya Pradesh: The study on 60 kodo millet growers of Mandla & Dindori and 60 little millet growers of Dindori and Chindwara revealed low productivity of the crops in farmers’ fields as compared to RPP, because of cultivation on shallow soils under rain-fed conditions, no adoption of improved crop production practices, lack of knowledge about RPP, poor socio economic conditions, non availability of seed of HYVs, lack of suitable extension and research support, huge price spread (minimum of 200%) and absence of minimum Support Price (MSP). Tribal farmers prepare various products of small millets for their consumption and very few sell the value added products in weekly market. The crop is produced organically by the tribal community; the value addition has to be up scaled by establishing micro /small level industries with capacity building for wider acceptance of the product at national and international markets. Geographical indicator based products with end to end approach may inculcate the entrepreneurial skill among them with brand image at global level. This will create an environment of auto welfare of tribal and foreign exchange reserve for the State. Impact of Soil Health Cards on production and productivity of major crops in Madhya Pradesh: The study on 30 soil tested farmers and 30 control farmers of district Jabalpur and Sehore revealed that 63.30% farmers are aware of SHC scheme; 25% of INM due to wider campaign by the State government; 15% HHs experienced that use of INM curtailed fertilizer consumption; 3% control and 4% soil tested HHs of grid system. Positive impact of Soil Health Card Scheme was observed on yield and probability of crops. Department of Farmers’ welfare and Agriculture Development is the most important source of information of SHC scheme. Only 18% control and 43% soil tested HHs attended training programme on application of fertilizers. The sample HHs applies fertilizer by broadcasting or spraying and none of them use fertigation and drilling method. Total cost incurred to test a sample is Rs. 35/- including family labour charges. An average HH takes average two soil samples from three plots and covers approximately 5 acre of land. Cooperative societies followed by private shops/dealers are major source to purchase fertilizer and bio-fertilizer. Few sample HHs adopt RDF, FYM and bio-fertilizer after obtaining SHC. Calculation of the required quantity of fertilizers (87%), high price (79%), lack of training (74%), non availability of recommended fertilizers in adequate quantity in the local market (63%), lack of knowledge on collection of ideal soil sample (56%), lack of technical advice on method and time of fertilizers application (53%) are the major bottlenecks non adoption of prescribed RDF. HHs may adopt RDF with timely availability of SHC on their mobile/internet and recommended fertilizers in the local market. Reduction (66.70%) in application of other inputs viz., seed, labour, pesticides etc., improvement in soil texture (60.00%) and increase in crop yield (55.60%) were observed by the majority of HHs after application of RDF. Close contact of farmers with officials of Department of Agriculture, scientists of SAUs & KVKs and farmer facilitators enhanced the adoption of recommended package of practices (RPP), while collection and analysis of soil sample reduces the expenditure on fertilizers and other inputs.

Beside this, the University also provides the funds for implementing different programmes especially for production of quality seeds at Instructional Farm. The funds are also made available by the Central Government for producing quality seeds of different major crops on the farmers’ fields through participatory mode. The Directorate of Extension Services and Communication Centre are being funded by the State government under State plan. The ATIC centre is being operated on revolving fund basis The extension activities organized at Zonal Research Stations, Regional Research Stations and College Campaii are being funded by the ICAR and State Government.

3. Silent accomplishments of extension activities 3.1 On farm testing Total numbers of 307 technologies were assessed on different thematic areas of resource management, crop production including field and horticultural crops, livestock by KVKs. The trials conducted on participatory mode on 4438 farmers’ fields during 2016-17. The process gave opportunities to the scientists to work and interact with farming community and collect useful feedback for production purposes. The approach helped the farmers to get convinced with the technological options assessed on farmers’ fields. Further, the suitable technologies identified by the Scientists and farmers were taken in the FLD programmes for their wider acceptability and horizontal expansion. 3.2 Frontline demonstrations The University conducts large number of field demonstrations to make the farmers aware of the latest technologies generated by the Scientists. Front Line Demonstrations are regularly conducted in Kharif, Rabi as well as in Summer season on need based components of production technologies. FLD programme on cereal crops like pulses oilseed etc. were organized an area of 1547/ha in which 6124 farmers were benefited during 2016-17. Nearly one third of the beneficiaries under these programme belong to weaker section of the farming communities. Major emphasis was given on introduction of improved varieties, IPM, INM and IPDM. Superiority of improved technology over farmers’ practices was demonstrated successfully. 3.3 Pulse Production under Tribal Sub Plan Pulses are the important crops of Madhya Pradesh. Productivity enhancement is the main apprehension especially in the rainfed areas of the tribal districts. Production technology modules of Urd (5 ha), Pigenpea (10 ha) Gram (66 ha), field pea (38 ha) and lentil (16 ha) was demonstrated in Shahdol and Dindori districts during 2014-15 and 2015-16.

Farmer’s perception The influence of technology demonstration and awareness programme have shown positive impact on the perception of farmers in Madhya Pradesh. The significance of seed and its difference to the grain has been very well studied by the people in terms of monetary return and there by changing the economic status of farmers. Benefits of technological intervention such as seed treatment with fungicides, biopestiside and insecticides towards the freedom from pest and diseases is well as since long. Physical purity and genetic purity are of immense importance for quality, uniformity and assessment of produce by the farmers. Awareness for better seed storage as compared to grains have been percolated in the mind set up. Overall perception include selection of seeds of high yielding varities and use improved technologies for seed production, awareness for storage pests and precaution to maintain physical purity during harvesting and threshing.

Livelihood Security through Quality Seed Production: Quality seed of various crops is being distributed in the tribal areas to provide an advantage of increased availability of quality seed. This programme had tremendous positive impact on upliftment of socio economic status of the targeted tribal farmers. These programmes are being implemented through KVK of the V.V. Special focus on Horticulture Crops: Seed production programme of spices and fruit- plant saplings was initiated on a large-scale. This resulted in availability of sufficient quantity of seed and planting materials of horticultural crops in the state. Fruits plant nurseries were established in all the centers of V.V. Brand Management of Jawahar Seeds: Brand Jawahar seed has been established with a logo to popularize the seed and planting materials. Now Jawahar seed is an established brand as the quality seed and planting materials. Research programme were included for the development as well as promotion of hybrid technologies of maize, rice, castor, pigeon pea. Identification of seed production areas as well as standardization for rice, maize, pigeon pea hybrid production technology along with centers has been the top of the agenda of the management of seed programme. Percolation of seed quality enhancement technologies in farmers field : Ridge and furrow system has proved superior for unprocessed and processed seed yield in soybean for black colour soil showing more savings and seed germination and seedling vigour index. For errect soybean varities, sowing at 40 cm row to row spacing in broad bed system and ridge furrow system have been adopted by the progressive farmers. Maximized hybrid seed production in rice is being achieved by treatment of seed with Thiomethoxion+Thiram+carbendzim (1:1) (@0.15% each) prior to sowing and alternate planting of 5 and 10 days old seedling of pollen parent and application of 40% part of GA3@90g/ha + 1% boric acid sprayed at 5% and 60% panicle emergence. Seed dressing of soybean with thiram (0.25%), thraim+carbendazim (0.2%), thiram+carboxin (0.2%) proved to be effective for the management of seed associated microflora. Storage of soybean seed at less than 10% moisture level in 700 gauge polythined bag after treatment with polykote@3ml per kg seed+vitavax 200 eliminated infection of mycoflora and helped in maintening higher germination, field emergence and vigour. Seed treatment with thiram (0.25%) or thiram+carbendazin (0.3+0.2%) effectively eliminated the pathogen Alternaria carthamii that caused of leaf blight of saflower. Appcication of propioconazole (eg. Tilt) @ 0.1% at 35 and 45 days after transplanting effectively managed the bunt of rice. Seed dressing with carboxin (eg. vitavax) @ 0.1% was effective in eliminating the causal agent of loose smut of wheat. Careful removal of smutted earheads help in reduction of spread of loose smut disease. Treatment of soybean seed with ammonium molybedate @ 1g/kg seed enhanced the seed yield in mloybadate deficient soils. Optimum field emergence of kabuli chickpea was achieved by hydro priming of seed before sowing. Alternate area for hybrid seed production of rice during rabi-summer has been identified of Madhya Pradesh. Best location for production of high quality hybrid seed of pigeonpea is produced at Seoni, Madhya Pradesh during kharif season. New areas for Seed Production of Hybrid: Madhya Pradesh is the most suitable for hybrid seed production of maize (32-35 qtl/ha), pigeonpea (15 to 20 qtl/ha) and Rice (10-15 qtl/ha) hybrid seed recovery. This has been a remarkable achievement of JNKVV hybrid seed research promotion. Hybrid paddy seeds can be produced in low rain fall area of Vindhya and Mahakosal region of Madhya Pradesh during kharif season. Seminar/workshop/symposium organized
