Earlier researchers had described this granite as part of the BGC, basement to the Bhim Group of the Delhi Super Group rocks. However, the present study indicates that it is younger than the rocks of Bhim Group of South Delhi Fold Belt, into which it is intrusive. The intrusion is structurally controlled and the outcrop pattern is phacolithic. The granite had intruded post-D2 deformation of the Delhi orogeny along the axial planes of D2 folds. The intrusion has also resulted in the formation of a contact aureole about the calc gneisses. 1. Introduction host rocks by this emplacement have been studied. An attempt is made to fix the time of emplacement A long geological history since Middle Archaean with respect to the different deformational events is recorded in the Precambrian belt of Rajasthan. of the Delhi orogeny.

  • Rajputana & Ajmer-Merwara, Vol-XXIV, Rajasthan
    PREFACE CENSUS TAKING, IT HAS RECENTLY BEEN explained by the Census Commissioner for India, should be regarded primarily as a detached collection and presentation of certain facts in tabular form for the use and consultation of the whole country, and, for that matter, the whole world. Conclusions are for ot.hers to draw. It is upon this understanding of their purpose that Tables have been printed in this volume with only the ,barest notes necessary to explain such points as definitions, change of areas, etc. But perhaps the word , barest' is too bare and requires some covering. In the past it has been customary to preface the Tables with many pages of text, devoted to providing some general description of the area concerned and supported by copious Subsidiary Tables and comparisons with data collected in other provinces, countries and states. On this occasion there is no prefatory text, no provision of extraneous comparisons, and Subsidiary Tables have virtually been made part of the Tables themselves. We may agree that the present method of presentation has much to recommend it. Those who seriously study census statistics at least can be presumed to be able to draw their own deductions: they do not need a guide constantly at their side, and indeed may actually resent his well-intentioned efforts. All that they require are t,he bare facts. Yet such people must ever constitute a very small minority. 'Vhat of the others-the vast majority of the public? It is hardly to be expected that they can be lured to Census Tavern by the offer of such coarse fare.

  • Evaluating Pearl Millet Varieties with Farmers in Barmer District
    \ EVALUATING PEARL MILLET VARIETIES WITH FARMERS IN BARMER DISTRICT M.K. Choudhary, E. Weltzien R., and M.M. Sharma ABSTRACT A newly formed NGO, operating in Barmer district in western Rajasthan, applied and modified methods of farmerparticipatory variety evaluation develop by ICRISA Tscientists in otheri'egions of Rajasthan. Barmer district has the largest area under pearl millet of all the Indian districts; it is characterized by low and erratic annual rainfall. The first year results of varietal evaluations with farmers indicated that farmers from Barmer district assigned the two highest ranks to varieties with medium to late maturity, large panicles andhigh yieldpotential. The farmers from the more sandy, drierareas of Barmerdistrict didprefer higher tillering, earliermaturir~yvarieties, commonly with larger grain size as a secondary group of desirable materials. The traits used to compare varieties most often were also the characteristics of the most preferred varieties. Farmers insisted on at least one more year of such evaluations before a decision on initial adoption of any of these varieties could be taken. INTRODUCTION The Society to Uplift Rural Economy (SURE) has recently begun to manage and direct a Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK), a farmer training center, with the approval of Ihe Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR). In collaboration with ICRISAT, the KVK has started a program to identify cultivars of pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] suitable for cultivation in Barmer district. Barmer district has no previous research results on the adaptation of newly released varieties of pearl millet.' The current program was designed to evaluate a broad range of genetic diversity on the KVK-farm and on farmers' fields.
