A survey of quality of irrigation water was carried out by Agriculture Research Station, S. D. Agricultural University, Bhachau- Kachchh during 2009-10. Total 369 water samples were collected from 10 different talukas of Kachchh district for assessment of quality of irrigation water. RSC of most of water sample were observed safe (88.89%), only 5.15 and 5.96 per cent sample were categorized under marginal and unsafe. RSC level was in order. Mundra > Mandvi > Bhuj. Chloride concentration of Kachchh district water samples were observed in order Mandvi > Gandhidham > Mundra > Bhachau > Rapar. Soluble salt was observed in order Mundra > Rapar > Mandvi > Gandhidham > Abdasa. In case of sodium hazard Mundra > Mandvi > Abdasa.Keywords

A field experiment consisting of 24 treatment combinations of four levels of sulphur (0,20,40,60 kg/ha) and three levels of zinc (0,2.5 and 5.0 kg Zn/ha) and two level of FYM (0 and 10 t FYM/ha) was conducted for two consecutive years from 2007-08 and 2008-09 were tested with three replications under factorial Randomized Block Design at Bhachau-Kachchh to study the effect of S and Zn with and without FYM on yield and property of soil after harvest of mustard. The soil of the experimental field was loamy sand with alkaline in reaction, low in nitrogen, sulphur and zinc, medium in phosphorus and potassium. Application of 40kg S/ha and 5.0 kg Zn/ha along with 10 t FYM/ha produced significantly higher yield and affected the physical properties of soil at harvest of crop over the control but it was at par with the application 40kg S/ha and 5.0kg Zn/ha along with 10t FYM/ha. Maximum economic benefits of gross realization, net realization along with highest BCR of 4.44:1was obtained with F1S2Zn2 treatment.Keywords

Cluster bean [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) Taub.] which is locally known as "guara" belongs to the family Fabaceae. It is hardy crop and its cultivation is suitable for rainfed, low fertility soil conditions. A field experiment consisting of five different modules was conducted during Kharif season from 2009-10 to 2014-15 with five quadrates in each module (2m×2m) under Randomized Block Design at Regional Research Station, SDAU, Bhachau, Kachchh to study the effect of different modules on yield and yield attributes of cluster bean grown on light textured soil of Kachchh. Among the five different modules, three were organic modules, one was chemical module and control. The results of the experiments differed significantly. The significant improvement in yield attributes and yield were recorded with the chemical module T4. Organic modules T2 recorded the highest growth improvement and yield as compared to control.Keywords
