The study was conducted in four villages of Ludhiana district of Punjab. A sample of 120 respondents comprising of 30 rural women from each selected village who actively participated in vegetable growing were selected for the purpose of study and respondents were divided into 4 groups. The developed module consisting of illustrated pictorial booklet, audio and video cassettes were used to impart training on minimal processing of vegetables to the selected four groups of farm women. The study revealed that demonstration and illustrated pictorial booklet was more effective for imparting education to women followed by video and illustrated pictorial booklet. The findings further indicated that 60 per cent of respondents gained high knowledge through reading of illustrated pictorial booklet and demonstration.Keywords

Oil seed cake proteins are recognised as a potential source of vegetable proteins, not being used for human consumption'^^. Their subsequent utilization as human food will result in improving the quality and quantity of the nutritionally poor diets and assume special significance because of their abundance in the very regions in which there is high incidence of protein malnutrition.- Impact of KVK's Home Science Training Programme

Study was conducted at Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK) Ferozepur district of Punjab. The Krishi vigyan Kendra has been conducted Vocational/short term and In-service trainings for rural youth/farmers and extension functionaries. The present study was focused on Impact of Home Science trainings organized by KVK Ferozepur. The suggestions of trainees were also taken for making improvements in future training programmes. A total of 125 trainees who have attended training programme were selected as the respondents of the study. The findings revealed that more than 62 per cent respondents were belonging to young age group and about 92 per cent respondents were educated. More than half of the respondents were belong to landless and schedule caste families. Majority of the trainees had adopted the vocational training on domestic level. About 80 per cent of the trainees who have received stitching training had adopted the occupation on self sustainable level and only 13.3 per cent had adopted as commercial level. Same trend was found in fruits and vegetable preservation training on other hand 16.6 per cent of the trainees had adopted the dying on commercial scale and 45 per cent of the trainees adopted as self sustainable level. It indicated that these training had positive monetary impact on the life of the trainees as they started earning money (who adopted on commercial scale) and others added to their family income by saving money by doing their own work rather than getting it done by others and the suggestions given by the trainees can be a good feedback for the extension personnel for planning of training programmes in future.Keywords

Field experiment was carried out during Kharif 2017 at Ludhiana and Gurdaspur to assess the weed density, DMA of weeds and chlorophyll content as influenced by straw mulching and herbicides in maize.Application of paddy strawmulch at 9.0 t ha-1 effectively controlled the density and DMA of grasses, broadleaf and sedges and resulted in significantly more leaf chlorophyll content in maize as compared to paddy straw mulch at 6.25 t ha-1 and no mulching. Pre-emergence application of atrazine at 1.0 kg ha-1 helped to manage density and DMA of grasses, broadleaf and sedges in comparison to atrazine at 0.8 kg ha-1 and unweeded check at 20 DAS. At 40 DAS of maize where maximum losses due to weeds occurred, the weeds were managed by post emergence application of tembotrione at 0.088 in combination with PSM 9.0 t ha-1which reduced the density and DMA of grasses, broadleaf and sedges in comparison to atrazine at 0.8 and 1.0 kg ha-1 and unweeded check, but were equally effective as compared to tembotrione at 0.110 kg ha-1 and weed free treatment. The data showed that application of 9.0 t ha-1mulch helped to reduce 20 per cent dose of atrazine and tembotrione for controlling weeds in maize.Keywords

A multi location experiment was conducted at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana and Regional Research Station Gurdaspur (PAU) during Kharif 2017 to evaluate the effect of straw mulching and herbicides on soil temperature, PAR interception and crop phenology of maize. Application of mulch at 9.0 t ha-1 helped to reduce the soil temperature at 5 cm soil depth by 3.8 to 4.6°C at 20 DAS, 1.0 to 1.4°C at 40 DAS, 1.0 to 1.3°C at 60 DAS and 0.7 to 1.2°C at harvest as compared to no mulch treatment, but at 10 cm soil depth the temperature was reduced by 2.2 to 3.7°C at 20 DAS, 1.3°C at 40 DAS, 0.5°C at 60 DAS and 0.4°C at harvest at both the locations. High values of PAR interception and less number of days taken to tasselling, silking and physiological maturity were recorded with application of PSM 9.0 t ha-1 as compared to PSM 6.25 t ha-1 and no mulching treatments. Mulch application at 6.25 t ha-1 also significantly lowered the soil temperature and resulted in significantly higher PAR interception and less number of days to tasselling, silking and physiological maturity as compared to no mulch treatment. Different weed control treatments did not significantly influence the emergence of maize and soil temperature at 5 cm and 10 cm depth at both the locations. Application of tembotrione at 0.088 kg ha-1, tembotrione at 0.110 kg ha-1and weed free treatments recorded statistically similar but significantly higher values of PAR interception and less number of days for tasselling, silking and physiological maturity as compared to atrazine at 0.8 and 1.0 kg ha-1 and unweeded check.Keywords
