A set of 23 genotypes of fodder pearl millet were studied for genetic variability, heritability, genetic advance and character association of green fodder yield and its components at Jamnagar and Dhari under rainfed condition of Gujarat during Kharif -2014. The analysis of variance revealed highly significant differences among the genotypes for all the seven characters studied. All the genotypes showed considerable amount of variation in their mean performance with respect to the characters studied, indicates presence of sufficient variability and scope for further selection and breeding superior and desirable genotypes. The variability analysis revealed that harvest index, grain yield, dry fodder yield and green fodder yield had high magnitude of phenotypic range, genotypic co-efficient of variation, phenotypic co-efficient of variation, heritability and genetic advance expressed as percentage of mean thereby suggesting the importance of additive gene action. Hence, these characters can be improved through simple selection process. Green fodder yield had significant positive correlation with days to 50 per cent flowering, days to maturity and dry fodder yield at both genotypic and phenotypic levels indicating any increase in these traits will increase the green fodder yield.

Field experiments were carried out at Pearl millet Research Station, Junagadh Agricultural University (JAU), Jamnagar and Grassland Research Station, JAU, Dhari during Kharif 2014, to know the performance of 17 cultivars of fodder pearl millet under marginal environments of Gujarat. Significant differences were observed among the cultivars for days to 50 per cent flowering, days to maturity, grain yield and green fodder yield while differences for plant height, plant population and dry fodder yield were non-significant. The locations differences were found significant for all the characters except days to 50 per cent flowering and days to maturity. The cultivars x locations differences were reflected non-significant for all the traits except plant height and plant population. Days to 50 per cent flowering ranged from 55 days (IP 20611) to 78 days (IP 14753). Days to maturity varied between 84 days (DFMH 30) to 100 days (IP 14294, IP 19415). The cultivar IP 19415 (294 cm) was the tallest cultivar, while, IP 14753 (223 cm) was the shortest cultivar. Grain yield was observed between 5.34 q/ha (IP 20577) to 16.68 q/ha (check PAC 981). Dry fodder yield ranged from 72 q/ha (IP 20611) to 131 q/ha (IP 10437). The cultivar IP 10151 (238 q/ha) produced the highest green fodder yield among all the cultivars followed by IP 20577 (236 q/ha) and IP 10437 (234 q/ha). Thus, these three cultivars viz. , IP 10151, IP 20577 and IP 10437 may be considered for general cultivation under marginal environments of Gujarat.

Issue I: Rainfed agriculture : Less than 10 per cent of the cultivated area in intermediate zone of J&K is irrigated (Anonymous, 2011). Hence, the abundance and distribution of rainfall is of utmost importance for agriculture. The distribution of mean annual rainfall in Rajouri is presented in Fig.1, which indicates that annually there are two crests in the mean distribution curve coinciding with the Kharif (larger crest) and Rabi (smaller crest) seasons, respectively. Thus, the rainfall distribution pattern is very suitable for growing both the Rabi and Kharif crops. The mean annual rainfall for the period 2004-2014 in Rajouri was 902 mm of which average rainfall during the Kharif months (April to October) was 624 mm and during Rabi months (November to March) was 278 mm. However, as evident from Fig. 1, the actual distribution of rainfall during various years is erratic with non-uniform period of drought and rains in various months. At the same time, we see that there is no season with a complete drought as rains do occur at some point of time during the crop
问题一:雨养农业:在查谟克什米尔的中间地带,只有不到10%的耕地是灌溉的(匿名,2011)。因此,降雨的丰富和分布对农业至关重要。Rajouri年平均降雨量分布如图1所示,从图1中可以看出,平均分布曲线每年有两个波峰,分别与Kharif季节(波峰较大)和Rabi季节(波峰较小)相吻合。因此,降雨分布模式非常适合种植Rabi和Kharif作物。2004-2014年Rajouri年平均降雨量为902 mm,其中Kharif月(4- 10月)平均降雨量为624 mm, Rabi月(11 - 3月)平均降雨量为278 mm。然而,从图1中可以明显看出,不同年份的实际降雨量分布是不稳定的,不同月份的干旱和降雨时间不均匀。与此同时,我们看到没有一个季节是完全干旱的,因为在作物生长的某个时间点确实会下雨

An experiment was conducted to assess the effect of seed maturity on germination and seedling growth of cape gooseberry ( Physalis peruviana L.). Seeds extracted from the fruits harvested at three stages of fruit development i.e. S 1 -49 days after fruit set, S 2 -56 days after fruit set and S 3 -63 days after fruit set and used for germination test and growth analysis of the seedlings. Results revealed that highest germination (93.86 %) was in the seeds those extracted from 56 days after fruits set (S 2 ), followed by S 3 -63 days after fruit set (86.39%), while minimum germination (80.71 %) was observed in the seeds of 49 days maturity (S 1 ). Seeds extracted from 56 days after fruit set exhibited better seedling growth in terms of higher shoot length, root length, collar thickness, number of leaves and leaf area, however, the results were at par with S 3 treatment. Dry matter accumulation in the seedlings was also highest in the seedling those raised from the seeds extracted at 56 days after fruit set.

The study examines the nature and extent of fuel wood, fodder and timber dependence in nearby forests by the local people living in Rarha village of Ranchi district in Jharkhand, India. A field survey of 72 households from the village was conducted for collecting primary data about the basic household’s attributes, dependency on fuel wood, fodder and timber and consumption pattern of these forest resources through a well-structured pre-tested interview schedule, personal observations, focus group discussion and participatory rural appraisal using multi-stage random sampling technique. Simple descriptive methods are used to analyse the data. The investigation revealed that the consumption of fuel wood was maximum (50.94 qt yr -1 ) by large farmers followed by medium farmers (40.95 qt yr -1 ) and least by small farmers (29.97 qt yr -1 ) and the fodder consumption was also maximum (23.43 qt yr -1 ) among large farmers followed by medium farmers (21.90 qt yr -1 ) and least by small farmers (20.43 qt yr -1 ). Similarly, the m aximum small timber consumption was recorded in large farmers (48.58 qt yr -1 ) followed by medium farmers (42.54 qt yr -1 ) and least by small farmers (39.49 qt yr -1 ). As regards structural timber consumption, the amount consumed by large farmers was calculated to be (28.85 qt yr -1 ), followed by medium farmers (26.31 qt yr -1 ) and least by small farmers (24.67 qt yr -1 ). The forests are facing enormous pressure for securing the needs by the local people, posing great threat to the biodiversity and environment. Therefore, the forest resources conservation through the intervention of alternative avenues is imperative to keep pace with current development and future challenges in the village.
该研究调查了居住在印度贾坎德邦兰契地区Rarha村的当地居民对附近森林中燃料木材、饲料和木材依赖的性质和程度。采用多阶段随机抽样技术,对该村72户家庭进行了实地调查,通过结构良好的预测试访谈计划、个人观察、焦点小组讨论和参与式农村评估,收集了基本家庭属性、对柴火、饲料和木材的依赖以及这些森林资源的消费模式等方面的初步数据。使用简单的描述性方法来分析数据。调查结果显示,大农户对木材的消耗量最大(50.94 qt yr -1),中等农户次之(40.95 qt yr -1),小农最少(29.97 qt yr -1);饲料消耗量最大(23.43 qt yr -1),大农次之(21.90 qt yr -1),小农最少(20.43 qt yr -1)。同样,小木材消耗量最大的是大型农户(48.58 qt /年-1),其次是中型农户(42.54 qt /年-1),最小的是小型农户(39.49 qt /年-1)。关于结构木材的消耗,计算得出大型养殖户的消耗量为(28.85 qt /年-1),中等养殖户次之(26.31 qt /年-1),小农最少(24.67 qt /年-1)。森林面临着满足当地人民需求的巨大压力,对生物多样性和环境构成了巨大威胁。因此,通过替代途径的干预来保护森林资源,是跟上村庄当前发展和未来挑战的必要条件。

An incubation experiment was conducted to assess the storability of poultry droppings compost for effective utilization and field application. In general, the nutrient content of the compost will vary depending upon the quantity and nutrient content of the manure, age of the compost and the method of storage. In our present study, we found that the storage of poultry droppings under normal condition did not influence the pH of the compost in the first 30 days but a slight reduction in pH (0.1 to 0.2) was observed between 30 th day and 45 th day. The Electrical Conductivity (EC) of the stored compost was increased but the level of increase was not exceeded 0.02 dS m -1 . A slight increase in total nitrogen content was recorded during storage of poultry compost and this might be due to moisture loss and reduction in volume. A slight decrease in total phosphorus and total potassium was also recorded in the stored compost during 75 th and 90 th day of storage. The microbial population was high between 30th and 45th day of storage. Compost contained a relatively large amount of micro-organisms associated to organic nitrogen mineralization which might have altered the chemical properties. There was no much variation in the nutrient status of the compost during first 45 days of storage and hence the poultry compost can be applied to land within 45 days after its maturity to derive maximum benefits.
通过培养试验,评价禽粪堆肥的贮藏性,为有效利用和田间应用提供依据。一般来说,堆肥的营养成分会根据肥料的数量和营养成分、堆肥的年龄和储存方法而变化。在本研究中,我们发现在正常条件下储存家禽粪便在前30天对堆肥的pH值没有影响,但在第30天至第45天之间,pH值略有下降(0.1至0.2)。贮存堆肥的电导率(EC)增加,但增加幅度不超过0.02 dS m -1。在家禽堆肥储存期间,总氮含量略有增加,这可能是由于水分损失和体积减少。在贮藏75和90 d时,堆肥中总磷和总钾也有轻微的下降。贮藏第30 ~ 45天微生物数量较多。堆肥中含有大量与有机氮矿化有关的微生物,这些微生物可能改变了堆肥的化学性质。在贮藏45天内,堆肥的营养状况变化不大,故可在家禽堆肥成熟后45天内施用,以获得最大效益。
