The present study on management of Cedrus deodara under shelter wood system is aimed at drawing attention for long sustenance of management practices. The study reflects some useful facts. The parameters like diameter, height, bole height and crown width increased with the increase in diameter of trees, however, number of individuals show decreasing trend with the diameter. Occurrence of broad leaved species in PBIV creating completion for establishment of main crop ultimately into less individuals. The variation in crop height was comparatively low (with 17.71 m minimum in PBIII and maximum of 22.92 m in PBI) in different PBs. The higher crop height in PBIV in comparision to PBIII was due to the presence of higher sized trees in PBIV and which were not removed in final felling thus affected the regeneration and growth of main crop. Mean crop basal area and crop standing volume was maximum in PBI, followed by PBII, PBIII and PBIV. The maximum basal area and standing volume was higher in diameter classes of crop diameter in PBII and PBIII, where crop was in proper distribution. The maximum total standing volume was recorded in PBI, showing sufficient tree density requires initiation for seeding felling treatment. Crop bole height and Crop crown width was maximum in PBII, followed by PBI, PBIII and PBIV. The correlation between different tree parameters of deodar was positive and significant. Standing volume of deodar trees can be well estimated by using diameter, height, crown width and bole height as independent variables using linear and log linear models. In a nutshell, the present system of management requires continuous monitoring for sustain yield regulation in connection with demand, supply and environment equilibrium.Keywords

Purpose: The study involves identifying the important factors contributing to the level of satisfaction from the destination attributes of Udaipur, Rajasthan.
Design: An extensive review of literature was done before the study. A pre-tested and structured questionnaire was used to collect data from 350 international tourists who visited Udaipur, Rajasthan in peak tourist season. Further, factor analysis was used in order to identify the most important destination attributes contributing to the satisfaction level of the tourists.
Findings: Services provided at the tourist spots were the most important destination attributes which included parking facility, communication system, cleanliness etc. Further, nine factors including accessibility and cultural factors were identified as the important factors in destination attributes.
Management Implication: The results of this study offer practical suggestions to destination and the tourism suppliers looking to develop positioning and marketing strategies for Udaipur tourism. The study could be useful to the tour operators, tourism stakeholders or destination management organisations to focus on the most important factors leading to tourist satisfaction, which can help them to develop the strategies for further development accordingly.

A study was conducted on nutrient status of wheat growing soils in district Meerut Uttar Pradesh. The study was conducted in soil testing laboratory of Krishi Vigyan Kendra Meerut and soils were collected from farmer’s field in the year 2017-18 and 2018-19. The analysis of soil samples shows that most of the soils of Meerut district are low to medium in organic carbon (0.41%), low in available nitrogen (210 kg/ha), medium in available phosphorus (13.55 kg/ha) and potash (195 kg/ha) and there is a need for a close monitoring of nutrient management and application of the fertilizer recommendations on the basic of STB (soil testing based) to enhance the wheat productivity.Keywords
