The cono weeder was procured evaluated for its field performance for long duration in paddy crop (Sona masuri) at farmer's field. The average row spacing, hill to hill spacing and height of crop were found to be 30cm, 10cm and 38cm, respectively. The average plant population of crop in square meter area was 32. The type of weed observed was Cypruss rotendus and Cynodan dectylan. The average height and population of weed in square meter area were 10cm and 125cm, respectively. The results indicated that, the field capacity was in the range of 0.016 to 0.019 ha/h with a field efficiency in the range of 59.23 to 62.07 per cent. The per cent weeding efficiency was observed in the range of 72.00 to 85.0. The average effort required to push the cono weeder was 14.4kgf. The Brinell hardness number of the weeding cone was observed in the range of 159 to 187. The per cent wear on dimensional basis in the right and left weeding cones was observed 4.75 and 3.80, respectively.Keywords

The performance evaluation of untreated, untreated thick and treated hoof shoes fixed to bullocks for carting work was carried out in Raichur region The experiment on different types of hoof shoes fixed to the bullocks was carried out for 28 days to assess the wear and tear in terms of weight and thickness of hoof shoes. The weight loss of untreated hoof shoe was found to be 15.8 per cent. The average wear loss of treated hoof shoe was found to be 11.68 per cent. The wear loss in thickness of untreated thick hoof shoes found to be 12.58 per cent. The wear loss in weight was found to be 14.53 per cent. The wear loss in thickness of treated hoof shoe was found to be 29.15 per cent. The total cost of untreated, untreated thick and treated hoof shoes including the labour charges were Rs. 95, Rs. 102 and Rs. 151 per pair, respectively. The total cost incurred in hoof shoeing in a year for untreated hoof shoes, untreated thick hoof shoes and treated hoof shoes were Rs. 1239, Rs.1064 and Rs. 1081, respectively. The feed back information on use of different hoof shoes was collected and it revealed that due to the non-availability of sophisticated technology for hardening treatment on hoof shoes, bullock cart operators preferred to use untreated hoof shoes. The untreated thick hoof shoes were accepted as an alternate by the farmers as they can be locally fabricated and also there was a saving in cost and lesser number of shoeing.Keywords

Self-propelled rice transplanter was evaluated under different puddling has been conducted Agricultural Research Station, Gangavati during 2014-15. KUBOTA Model NSPU-68C (6 rows) transplanter was used in an experiment. This transplanter (Kubato Model) was in view to decrease the cost operation and it is used for transplanting purpose. The number of floating hills increased with an increasing level of puddling. The numbers of buried hills were reduced significantly with an increase in the sedimentation period as well as the both No. of passes. The field efficiency, field capacity, and fuel consumption of the transplanter were, 62.96 %, 0.54 ha/h and 4.29 l/h, respectively. The cost of operation of tractor operated disc puddler, rotovator and rotomixuer was 484 Rs/h, 538 Rs/h, 551 Rs/h and cost of operation of transplanter is 965 Rs/h. Compared to manual transplanting of paddy the machine was found to be farmer friendly and feasible in terms of time, money and labour requirement.Keywords
