The kernel of water chestnut contains a large amount of protein (up to 20%), starch (52%), tannins (9.4%), fat (up to 1%), sugar (3%),...

High density or Intensive farming of Fruit trees भारतवर्ष में जनसंख्या वृध्दि के साथ साथ फल उत्पादन भी बढ़ रहा है, लेकिन फल उत्पादन में द्वितीय स्थान होने के बावजूद भी प्रति व्यक्ति फलों की उपलब्धता केवल 80 ग्राम प्रतिदिन है। प्रति व्यक्ति फलों की उपलब्धता को बढ़ाने के लिए क्षेत्रफल का बढ़ाना बहुत ही मुश्किल काम है लेकिन फल उत्पादन को हम निम्न तरीके से बढ़ा सकते हैं जैसे अधिक उपज वाली किस्में लगाकर, समय के साथ कटाई, छंटाई व अन्य, फल वृक्षों की रोग तथा किटाणुओं के प्रति प्रबन्धन तथा सघन खेती से भी हम फल उत्पादन बढ़ा सकते हैं। सघन खेती से हमारा अभिप्राय किसी क्षेत्र में फल वृक्षों की संख्या...

कश्मीर घाटी में चावल गहनता (एसआरआई) प्रणाली के कार्यान्वयन की गुंजाइश व उपयोगिता “The system of rice intensification (SRI)" is a method of rice cultivation that involves efficient utilization of natural resources in conjunction with judicious use of external inputs to produce optimum rice yield.  Although SRI is best explained operationally in terms of making certain changes in conventional rice-growing practices, it is not best defined in terms of practices. SRI is a strategy of irrigated rice production, adapted to local conditions, that alters plant, soil, water and nutrient management practices with the purpose of (a) inducing larger and better-functioning root systems, and (b) more abundant, diverse and active communities of soil...

कटाई उपरांत कटफ्लावर का रखरखाव  Floriculture has emerged as a viable diversification option in the agri-business. It is a rapidly expanding industry recording a growth rate of more than 15 per cent per annum in the last two decades.  Rapid urbanization, increased income levels and changes in social values resulted in increase of domestic market both for modern (cut flowers) as well as traditional (loose flowers) flowers significantly. Improvement in the general level of well being in the country and increased affluence particularly among the middle class is also another reason for increase in the volume of local flower market. The quantum of Indian floricultural exports, although, increased manifold since early...
