Abstract

This paper highlights the impact of Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Anjora, Durg, Chhattisgarh. The majority of the farmers were (73.33 %) in middle age group, education 38.89% , Caste (71.11%) in OBC, 58.89% in middle in size of family and 77.78 joint family in case of trained farmers group were as in case of untrained farmers the same types of results were observed that is (73.33) in middle age group , 35.55 % in middle education group 68.89% in OBC, 48.89% in middle size of family, 75.56% joint family and only 44.44 % in social member of organization respectively. The result indicates that high level of knowledge both trained and untrained famers i.e. 83.34% and 57.78% respectively. In case of adoption of recommended rice production technology medium level of adoptions were found that is 76.67% in case of untrained farmers and 62.22% in case of trained farmers respectively.

Abstract

The present study was conducted in Raipur Karchulian block of Rewa district (M.P.). The result indicates that majority of the respondents (45%) had medium level of knowledge and (50.83%) majority had medium level of adoption gap regarding recommended wheat production technology. In case of socio-economic factors i.e. education, land holding, annual income, availability of irrigation facilities, and farm equipment had significantly associated with the knowledge and adoption gap in wheat production technology. In this study, the farmers reported that the main constraints for low yields of wheat production had been non availability of improved seed, non availability of timely information, high cost of improved seed, unawareness about improved cultivation practices and high cost of fungicide/pesticide. Efforts should make for awareness to increase knowledge of the farmers towards latest technology through different information sources and to minimize the adoption gap so that their level of technical knowledge may be increased.

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted at Raipur, in wheat crop grown after rice, application of 50% of the recommended N through organic sources i.e. FYM, rice straw and green manure to rice and 50% through chemical fertilizer or even with 100% of recommended NPK fertilizer to rice and wheat significantly produced the plant height, number of tillers per square meter, plant population per square meter, number of spikelet's per spike, test weight, elongate the growth span and increased the grain and straw yield and simultaneously nutrient uptake of wheat crop. When 75% NPK + 25% N applied through organic sources to rice and 75% recommended dose of NPK fertilizer to wheat, significantly increased the aforesaid yield components, yield and nutrient uptake respectively, over no NPK fertilizer. The application of 50% recommended NPK fertilizer to rice and wheat had no significant effect on yield components, yield and nutrient uptake of wheat. Higher response was observed where integration of recommended fertilizer dose with organic source was done in preceding rice crop.

Abstract

Trend and forecasting equation for timber price on the basis of regression factor were designed for each forest circle. Grade wise of timber price and its comparison with different species were also calculated. For fitting of trend and short tern forecasting of various timber price data for Teak , Sal , Bija , Shisham , Khamhar , Saja and Dhawra species were collected from each forest circle of forest department of Chhattisgarh . The data were collected for a period emergence of new state Chhattisgarh i.e. from 2001 to 2005. The analysis was done for circle wise, grade wise and state level records. The best fitted trends and forecast was observed for Kanker followed by Sarguja and Bilaspur circle, where as positive trends and forecast was observed.
