Comparative study of normal and quality planting stock of selected indigenous fuelwood and fodder tree species of sub-tropical region of Garhwal Himalaya was carried out for selection of suitable fuelwood and fodder tree species for higher biomass production. Based on the findings of the seed and growth characteristics, it is concluded that Grewia optiva, Bauhinia variegata and Albi ia lebbeck are the best suited tree species for plantations in the sub-tropical region of Garhwal Himalayas.Keywords

A study on seed and growth characteristics of different fuelwood and fodder tree species of Garhwal Himalayas was carried out to find out the suitable species for higher biomass production on the basis between normal and quality planting stock. The data indicated that quality planting stock attained the maximum growth as compared to the normal planting stock. Species like Grewia optiva, Terminalia chebula, Ficus gibbosa, Albizia lebbek, Kydia calyciana and Bauhinia purpurea were better in terms of growth at the nursery stage and may be given priority under the fuelwood and fodder yielding tree species of the area.Keywords

Field gene bank of Acacia nilotica of 55 progenies has been established and maintained at Bir Bhadsun (Punjab) for conservation and future breeding programme. Seeds were collected from all 55 progenies of 9 provenances of three states viz., Punjab, Haryana, and Himachal Pradesh covering its natural distribution zone. Seeds were sun dried and their characters (seed length, seed width and seed thickness) were measured. Maximum and minimum seed length, seed width and seed thickness were obtained from Fatehgarh Sahib, Punjab Provenance respectively. Seeds were sown in the trays at Plant Physiology Nursery, Forest Research Institute, Dehra Dun. The highest germination percentage has been found in Pinjore Road, Haryana provenance. After germination the seedlings were shifted in the polybags filled with sand, soil and farmyard manure in 2:1:1 ratio and kept in the nursery for growth. After one year the seedlings of all the 55 progenies were then transplanted in the field at Bir Bhadsan (Patiala, Punjab) in about 2 ha land following Randomized Block Design (simple pair design ). The data on growth and survival were recorded at the six month and five year old seedlings after transplanting in the field. Significant variation was observed among all the progenies of all observed characters. The best average growth (after six months of planting) was observed in the Roop Nagar (Punjab), progenies whereas, minimum growth was observed in the progenies of Bhadsun Nabha Road (Punjab). However, the maximum average growth (after five years of planting) was observed in the Kurali Naraingarh (Punjab), Pinjore Road (Haryana), and the minimum was observed in the progenies of Rajpura (Himachal) and Nalagarh Road (H.P.).Keywords

Indian Forester, Vol 126, No 6 (2000), Pagination: 634-642Abstract
The composition of forest vegetation and community structure of Moist Bhabar and Tarai Sal forest were examined on four different aspects; namely, North-East, North-West, South-East and South-West, in District Pauri Garhwal to understand the growth behaviour of Shorea robusta individuals under different micro-climatic conditions. S. robusta was found dominating on all the aspects with maximum lVI, density, frequency and TBC values and has reflected regular and random distribution patterns. the highest TBC value of this species was recorded on NE facing slope (5009.04 cm2/100 m2 ) and the highest Cd value (0.4321) on SW facing slope, where minimum diversity persisted. On the other hand the lowest cd value (0.3115) was observed on SE aspect where maximum diversity existed. The maximum accumulation of organic matter was noticed on NE aspect (average value 1.510.61 %) due to occurrence of mature Sal stand.- Cell Phone as a Portable Storage Device and Beyond

The introduction of personal computing and wireless communication technology provides an option for on site device software updating and data retrieving. This is especially true for any devices sitting in a remote site where computing network is not accessible. In many advanced computing systems, frequent software updating and configuration profiles refreshing are required. This is clumsy and error prone procedures when users are not familiar with the operating systems. Suppose all the necessary files and programs are predefined in a mobile phone. All necessary files and software can be transferred to the corresponding computing devices and PCs at remote sites through wireless communication links such as Bluetooth/infrared. This idea helps to solve the initial installation cost of a communication network to a remote site. Index Terms - Bluetooth, mobile communication.Keywords

Gladiolus is also known as “queen of the flowers” is an important cash horticultural crop. Generally it is planted manually which is very tedious, time consuming and labor intensive operation. So far, there is no planter available for planting of gladiolus corms. With a view of mechanize the planting operation of this horticultural crop,atractor one of the popular bulbous ornamental plants. Traditionally the gladiolus corm are planted manually which is very high tedious, time consuming and labour intensive operation. A single row tractor operated prototype planter was developed to improve planting efficiency and reduce drudgery involved in manual planting method and its performance was evaluated in actual field condition. The three levels were selected for corm spacing viz., 15, 20 and 25 cm and three for forward speed viz., 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 km/h were taken as performance parameter for the developed prototype planter. The indicator namely missing index, multiple index, mechanical damage, corm spacing per meter length and properties of gladiolus corms etc. determined during the test.Keywords

Energy use in the rice–wheat crop production system is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Understanding input-wise energy flows in the production system is vital to optimize input–output and estimating GHG emissions and global warming potential. Doon Valley, India, has energy-intensive agriculture practices and a survey-based assessment was undertaken in this area covering 63 farms. According to the present study, rice and wheat production requires 63,825 and 50,799 MJ ha–1 of total energy input respectively. The main contributors were electricity, fertilizers and diesel for both crops; however, irrigation water was also a significant contributor in the case of rice. The yield per unit of energy use was relatively low which warrants better crop management practices to reduce the environmental footprint of the rice–wheat cropping system.References

Abstract An investigation was carried out under the Department of Fruit Science, College of Horticulture and Forestry, Jhalawar. The experiment was conducted in the pomegranate orchard established under high density planting system at the Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Jhalawar in the near vicinity of the college during July 2018 to December 2018 and again during July 2019 to December 2019. The experiment was laid out in Factorial Randomized Block Design and experiment comprised of 27 treatment combinations consisting of plant growth regulators levels (NAA 0, 50 and 100 ppm and ethrel 0, 150 and 250 ppm) and fertigation levels (0, 75 and 100% recommended dose of fertilizers). Results revealed that maximum mean per cent increase in plant height (10.34), plant spread viz., East-West (7.01) and North-South (6.62), canopy volume (25.87) and leaf area (19.51 cm2) was recorded under F2 (fertigation 100% recommended dose of fertilizers). However, interaction effect of NAA, ethrel and fertigation were found to be relatively higher to their individual effect. In interaction effect maximum mean per cent increase in plant height (13.28), plant spread viz., East-West (8.03) and North-South (7.71), canopy volume (31.72) and leaf area (23.55 cm2) was recorded under N2E1F2 (100 ppm NAA + 150 ppm ethrel + 100% RDF through fertigation).Keywords
