SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTIVITY OF MAJOR CROPS

The major constraint is low productivity of vegetable crops by following the nonrecommended cultivation techniques. The results of front line demonstration revealed that average yield of 225, 325, 138 and 250 q/ ha was obtained in Ropar, Nurpurbedi, Sri Anandpur Sahib, Chamkaur Sahib and Morinda blo[r]

Soil health refers to the biological, chemical, and physical features of soil that are essential to long-term, sustainable agricultural productivity with minimal environmental impact. Thus, soil health provides an overall picture of soil functionality. Although it cannot be measured directly, soil h[r]

Study was conducted in Kabirdham district of Chhattisgarh state. 49 soybean seed producers were selected randomly from two blocks of this district i.e. Kawardha and Lohara. Soybean seed producers were selected randomly and were considered to collect the required information on the cost of cultivatio[r]

Prevalence of moisture stress and poor crop establishment are major constraints for the cultivation of rabi crops in maize fallows which results in reduced cropping intensity and insufficient food production in North Eastern Hill region. Hence, the present field experiment was conducted with differe[r]

To achieve global food security, rising agricultural productivity through modern breeding strategies is of prime interest. A variety of biotic and abiotic stresses influences both productivity and crop quality, and it is essential for growing crops with improved adaptability, high productivity and r[r]

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L) is one of the major vegetable crops cultivated in India, which plays a major role in supplementing the income of small and marginal farmers of Seoni district of Madhya Pradesh. The front line demonstrations (FLDs) were conducted on farmer’s field in Seoni district of[r]

This paper analyses the growth rates and instability indices of major pulses in Andhra Pradesh. Decomposition analysis was carried out to measure the relative contribution of area and yield to the growth in total production of major pulses. The study period has been divided into two sub periods for[r]

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is one of the most widely grown vegetable crops in the world; they are excellent source of various micronutrients and antioxidants. In Tamil Nadu the area under tomato cultivation is 38.78 lakh ha with the production of 841.21 million tonnes. In Tamil Nadu, the major[r]

Sulphur (S) deficiency is widespread in Indian soils and is been emerging as a major limitation for enhancing productivity. Soils of Karnataka are largely deficient in sulphur (52 %). In this context, survey work was carried out during the year 2017 to know the status of sulphur and its forms and di[r]

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is most important staple crop of the world and is major constituents of Indian agriculture and nutritional security due to their high yield, economic viability, ability to generate on-farm and offfarm employment.

Rice is the major staple food of the world’s population which contributes a vital role in global food security. Scarcity of water resources is a major threat for the higher water requiring crops like rice and agricultural production, as a whole. Henceforth, the present field experiment was conducted[r]

The present study is entirely based upon secondary data. The secondary data related to area, production and productivity of total horticultural crops in India, Haryana and Odisha were taken from National horticulture board data base and respective state horticultural departments from 2005-06 to 2017[r]

Dryland horticulture constitutes major part in horticulture crop production. Moisture stress is one of the major limiting factor in production of mango in dryland horticulture, since the rainfall is highly erratic and it is not possible to utilize available rainwater efficiently.
