निलगिरी के लिए आलू का बीज उत्पादन करने की तकनीक The potato crop produces more food (dry matter) than cereals and vegetables. It could be processed into a variety of products either by itself or in combination with other products. Due to these factors production and productivity level has shown a steady growth rate in the last four decades. Such a tremendous growth has been due to the agro-economic advantages of potato over other crops. Potatoes are traditionally propagated through vegetative means. The Nilgiri hills, situated at an elevation of 1500 - 2600 meters above mean sea level at 11o 24’ North latitude and 74o 4’ East longitude is  one of the...

गोभी फसलों के कीट पतंगों का पर्यावरण-अनुकूल प्रबंधन Cole crops are cultivated extensively in tropical and temperate regions of the world including India. The chief constraint in the production of cole crops is the damage caused by pest complex right from germination till harvest.  In India, a total of 37 insect pests have been recorded on cole crops (Lal, 1975). The extent of damage due to these pests in India is known from 7 to 90 per cent with consequent reduction in yield from 20 to 80 per cent (Prasad, 1963). Since cole crops are highly remunerative, intensive plant protection measures involving a number of insecticides are common. In spite of large...

पठार क्षेत्रों और दक्षिणी पहाड़ियों के लिए आलू की उत्पादन तकनीक Potato is a cool season crop. Its wider adaptability makes it possible to grow this crop in almost all the states of the country but by adopting suitable production technology. The plateau area and southern hills, which represent a sizeable area under potato cultivation differ from other parts of the country with respect to climatic and soil conditions, in which major potato growing area lies. Hence, for exploiting the potential benefits, the farmers of this region need to adopt suitable technology for cultivating potato, which are discussed in detail in this paper. In India major potato area is concentrated in Northern plains...

पूर्वोत्तर भारत में मक्का के प्रमुख कीटों का पर्यावरण-अनुकूल प्रबंधन The maize is grown in a wide range of environments, extending from extreme semi-arid to sub-humid and humid regions of India. Maize is considered a promising option for diversifying agriculture in upland areas of India. It now ranks as the third most important food grain crop in India. The crop is also very popular in the low- and mid-hill areas of the western and north eastern hill (NEH) regions (Joshi et al., 2005). In NEH region of India, maize is primarily grown under jhum land and terraced area. This crop is infested by large number of insect pests, which cause severe damage...

सरसों (रेपसीड) की संकर बीज उत्पादन करने की तकनीक The potential of the conventionally bred open pollinated varieties has been exploited to its maximum level resulting in a platue in the productivity level, which breeder often calls as yield stagnancy. Here we need to exploit the heterosis i.e. hybrid vigour to break the yield platue. Three hybids, namely NRCHB 101, NRCHB 506 and Dhara mustard hybrid-1 were released in 2008. Development of a successful hybrid seed production technology in a crop is essential for the extension of hybrid technology to farmers. Standardization of sowing time and planting ratio is an important aspect for economic hybrid seed production and it is more valid...

मूंगफली की फसल के 6 प्रमुख रोगों का प्रबंधन India is the largest producer of groundnut in the world. But average yields are low at 745 kg/ha. One of the important factor contributing to low yield is disease attack. Groundnut crop is prone to attack by numerous diseases to a much larger extent than many other crops. More than 55 pathogens including viruses have been reported to affect groundnut. Some diseases are widely distributed and cause economic crop losses while others are restricted in distribution and are not considered to be economically important at present. Among those disease some important diseases with their nature, symptoms and controls are described here :- 1-...

उत्तर-पूर्व भारत में सोयाबीन की कीट-पतंग समष्‍टि‍ और उनका पर्यावरण-अनुकूल प्रबंधन The soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merill] is one of the oldest cultivated crops of the world. It also is known as “Golden bean”, “Miracle crop” and “Crop of the planet” etc., because of its several uses. The first record of this crop is available in Chinese literature, where it is mentioned to be one of the five sacred grains of china. The middle and lower Yellow river valley in China has been reported to be the place of origin (Chang, 1980). Since the first century AD, this ancient domesticate became widely introduced and land races developed in China, Korea, India...
