|
1
| Assessment of drought tolerant paddy variety in rain-fed upland. | Poor yield of existing cultivar Khandagiri | Drought tolerant var. Sahabhagi Dhan has yield potential of 26.8q/ha TO2- Drought tolerant var. Jyotirmayi performs yield of 24.2q/ha | Drought tolerant var. Sahabhagi Dhan has yield potential of 26.8q/ha where as in case of farmers practice yield is 16.65, % increase in yield is 61.0. So farmers are interested to cultivate Sahabhagi dhan |
|
2
| Assessment of Acid soil management in Maize | Poor yield in Maize due to soil acidity and improper nutrient management. | Application of lime @0.2 LR increases Maize yield by 14% and farmers are advised for application of lime in time with recommended dose. | Demonstration yield - 42.3 q/ha over Farmers practice- 36.1 so % increase in yield is 17.1. so farmers are motivated to use as for recommended dose |
|
3
| Assessment of INM in groundnut in rainfed up land | Poor yield due to improper nutrient and no use of micro-nutrient utilisation | Application of NPK 40:40:60 kg/ha with soil application of FYM 12.5 t/ha and Gypsum @ 200 kg/ha; seed treatment with Rhizobium @ 200g/10kg seeds, ZnSO4 25 kg/ha and 10 kg Borax/ ha gives 32% more yield over FP | Demo yield- 18.7 over Farmers practice- 14.2 , % increase in yield is 32, |
|
4
| Assessment of high yielding varieties of sesame | Low yield of sesame due to traditional/ old varietal | Plant height(PH), ear bearing tillers (EBT)/plant, grains/panicle, 1000 grain weight | Cultivation of sesame var. Smarak resulted 27.1% higher yield than farmers’ practice and moderately resistant to phyllody blight. |
|
5
| Assessment of management of wilt complex in tomato by using Jivamrita and Bijamrita | Low yield due to wilt incidence | PDI | Application of organic concentrates incurred very less cost and the application is not tedious than the chemical methods. So seed treatment with bijamrit and soil application of Jivamrit starting from 25 DAT and at 15-20 days interval for 5 to 6 times in a cropping period should be followed. |
|
6
| Assessment of IPM Modules for the management of Brinjal fruit and shoot borer. | Low yield and poor marketability. | Shoot infestation (%) and Fruit infestation (%) | Clipping of infested shoots & fruits regularly, use of pheromone traps, spraying of Azadiractin, spraying of Bt and spraying of Chlorantraniliprole performed better as compared to farmers’ practice, where shoot infestation minimized from 39% to 7% and fruit infestation has been reduced from 31% to 5 % with 33.49% higher yield. |
