Half-field demonstrations were conducted on pulses, oilseeds and wheat with improved technologies against farmer's practices at farmer's fields during 2008-09, 2009-10 and 2010-11in Hamirpur district of Bundelkhand zone in Uttar Pradesh. Improved techniques included mainly the improved crop variety, proper sowing method and maintenance of optimum plant stand, rhizobium seed inoculation in pulses, optimum fertilizer application and proper weed control. In all the demonstrations conducted were 351 in pigeonpea, 687 in chickpea, 435 in field pea, 255 in lentil, 1055 in sesame, 722 in mustard and 1609 in wheat. The results showed that improved techniques increased seed yield over farmer's practices by the margins of 6.93 q/ha or 107.9 % in pigeonpea, 10.77 q/ha or 113.8 % in chickpea, 8.79 q/ha or 71.5 % in field pea, 6.22 q/ha or 75.2 % in lentil, 1.57 q/ha or 135.3 % in sesame, 7.35 q/ha or 89.0 % in mustard, 15.81 q/ha or 60.1 % in wheat T. aestivum and 17.63 q/ha or 81.0 % in wheat T. durum. Net profit due to improved techniques increased maximum of Rs.20665/ha in chickpea followed by Rs.16734/ ha in pigeonpea. Lowest of Rs.3462/ha net profit was increased in sesame. These results indicate that there are great possibilities of increasing productivity and profitability of above crops with adoption of improved techniques in Hamirpur district of Uttar Pradesh.Keywords

Grain quality characteristics (Physico-chemical) of forty five short grain aromatic rices were evaluated in the Biochemistry Laboratory, Crop Research Station, (NDUAT) Masodha, Faizabad in 2012. Physico-chemical analysis of collected genotypes revealed that all these rices possess good grain and cooking quality. Among physical parameters of grain quality, the milling per cent among tested genotypes varied from 50.90 to 70.0 per cent. The maximum milling recovery (%) was recorded for Zeeringa shabha collected from Amethi area of district Sultanpur while volume expansion ratio varied from 1.90 to 5.50. Amylose content (%) ranged from 19.25 to 24.10 per cent. The lowest AC (%) was recorded in 'Lalmati (Kurauli, Barabanki)', whereas highest in 'Kalanamak (Tulsipur)'. Intermediate amylase content was recorded for all the tested rice genotypes.Keywords

A field experiment entitled “Effect of phosphorus and sulphur level on growth and yield of Mustard (Brassica juncea coss.)” variety Varuna, was conducted at the research plot of Kulbhaskar Ashram Post graduate farm Allahabad (U.P.)during the Rabi Season 2008-09 and 2009 - 10 India . The experimentwas laid out in a Factorial Randomized Block Design having four levels of phosphorus (0, 25, 50 and 75 kg ha-1) and sulphur (0, 20, 40 and 60 kg ha-1) each with three replications. The phosphorus and sulphur were applied throughDAP and gypsum, respectively. Indian mustard variety Varuna was sown on 11th October, 2008 with the seed rate of 5.0 kg ha-1. The plant height, dry weight per plant, number of siliqua plant-1, seed yield and stover yield increased significantly at 50 kg phosphorus and 40 kg sulphur ha-1. Over without P and with 25 and 75kg ha-1. P. and without S with 20kg and 60 kg S ha-1, respectively.Keywords
