Among the various characters that determine the economic value of a forage variety, persistency and aggressiveness are of considerable importance particularly in case of those species or varieties which are meant for increase of forage from a native pastureland. The precise criteria for judging the relative degree of expression of these characters and a method for estimating the same have not been adequately investigated in the past, in the pasture research work. In the present paper, while studying the varietal differences in these two characters, it is suggested that the character of persistency may be adequately understood by the proportion of sterile to fertile tillers, plant size and a continued increase in its volume with almost absence or presence of a very little of the dead matter portion of the clones over a long growth period. For the character of aggressiveness the criteria suggested are the total canopy of plants, their relative resistance to the encroachment of other vegetation, their efficiency in auto-regeneration and in competition for survival with associated flora in a mixed stand. Using these criteria, eight varieties of Cenchrus setigerus grass have been evaluated for the expression of their characters- persistency and aggressiveness. From among these eight varieties, P.S. 31 has shown a striking superiority in these characters. This variety also is among the best forage producing varieties. This suggests that it looks possible to obtain, in a single variety, the character of high forage production of superior quality and also characters of persistency and aggressiveness in a greater measure. These studies further indicate that the high production of underground organs per unit area appears to be one of the attributes for the high expression of these two characters in the present material.

The on farm trail was conducted for three years, during winter season of 2007-08 to 2009- 10 at farmers fields of Kannauj district. The pilot area situated in the catchments area of river Kali. For assessment of nutrients application on potato crop, the fertilizer-use-technology was refined with the inclusion of soil test base use of nutrients. Nutrients application on the soil test base i.e., 203 kg N+65 kg P2O5 + 70 kg K2O/ha declined 3.63 per cent and 3.79 per cent tuber yield only compared with farmers practice and R.D.F., which was negligible. The highest net return of Rs. 88527/ha was achieved from RDF closely followed by Rs. 84967/ha, available from soil test base use of fertilizer. The lowest net retutn of Rs. 72417/ ha and BCR (1:2.64) were found in farmers practice. The B:C ratio in soil test base (1:3.05) and R.D.F. (1:3.07) was recorded similar.Keywords

An experiment was conducted at Horticulture Garden, Department of Horticulture, C.S. Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur during two consecutive year. The main objective was to produce qualitative and quantative fruits yield of papaya for fetching good return with use of chemical and physical mutagens. The maximum fruit yield of papaya was recorded by 24.86 kg/plant with the use gamma irradiation 10 kr, followed by control (24.01 kg/plant). Application of EMS mutagen @ 0.2% and 0.4% gave fruits by 18.38 kg/plant and 18.64 kg/plant, respectively. It is worth while to mention here that the lower doses of chemical and physical mutagens use on papaya gave better response over the higher doses. The growth and yield trails was found in concordance to fruits yield of papaya.Keywords

The FLD was laidout in cluster on eleven farmers fields during Zaid season of 2010 at Kannauj district. The pilot area situated in the catchments area of river Kali, having loam soil with low fertility status. The main objective of the study was to pluck higher flowers yield, maximum net return and desired recovery of concrete. The secondary objective was to increase the living standard of farm families reeling below the poverty line. The flowers yield of cv. MOGRA SINGLE of Bela was recorded by 76.80 q/ha, which was higher by a margin of 16.00 q/ha or 26.31 per cent than the familiour indigenous cultivar (60.80 q/ha). The maximum gross return of Rs. 307200/ha, net return of Rs. 249540/ha and BCR of 1:5.32 were found with plucking of marketable flowers from raising of cv. MOGRA SINGLE than the gross return of Rs. 243200/ha, net return of Rs. 191000/ha and BCR of 1:4.65 computed under indigenous variety. Therefore, cv. MOGRA SINGLE can be raised on riverine soil for plucking of faney flowers and improving livelihood security of small and marginal farmers.Keywords

There are several modes are available for teaching to the farmers through distance training system, out of which telecast of video programme, broadcast of audio programmes, telecounselling etc. are eco-friendly modes, solving the farmers problems. The telecounselling is a ecofriendly and easy system of distance training, which is available in rural area in the form of mobiles and landline. The experiment on telecounselling for improvement of potato yield was tried in the villages Bhawanipur and Daipur of district Kannauj and Rajpura, Baghauli, Jasharau and Shaidpur of district Mainpuri for the first time. The soil of experimental site was sandy loam with poor fertility. There is certain drawback in the cultivation of potato. The farmers are not using the recommended agronomic practices, resulting in, the low yield obtained from potato. The farm families of potato growers were linked with C.S.Azad University of Agriculture and Technology, Kanpur and KVK, Kannauj. The growers put up their problems of potato cultivation before the scientists through telecouselling mode of distance training as and when required. The scientists solved their problems immediately with same mode of distance training. The cultivation of potato was recommended with three varieties i.e. Kufri Bahar, Kufri Pukhraj and Kufri Pushkar through telecounselling mode. Cultivars Kufri Bahar, Kufri Pukhraj and Kufri Pushkar gave tuber yield by 331.55 q/ha, 354.22 q/ha and 383.71 q/ha, respectively. The growth and yield traits were concordant to yield obtained from potato cultivars. The highest net return Rs. 123569/ha and BCR 1:2.15 were obtained from adoption of cultivation of cultivar Kufri Pushkar closely followed by the net return Rs. 106031/ha and BCR 1:2.00 available from the cultivation of Kufri Pukhraj.
