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

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.
