चावल के सतत उत्पादन के लिए संसाधन संरक्षण प्रौद्योगिकियों Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important staple food crops in the world. In Asia, more than two billion people are getting 60-70 percent of their energy requirement from rice and its derived products. In India, rice occupies an area of 44 million hectares with an average production of 90 million tonnes at productivity of 2.0 tonnes per hectare. It is estimated that 140 million tones of rice would require by 2025 in India. Therefore to sustain present food self-sufficiency and to meet future food requirement, India has to increase its rice productivity by 3 per cent per annum.   The present...

Cost effective agricultural practices  कम खर्च में- अधिक लाभ कैसे कमा यें? आज भारत ने अनाज उत्पादन के क्षेत्र में अधिक उपज देने वाली किस्मों की मदद से, आत्म निर्भरता हासिल कर ली है। लेकिन कुछ प्रमुख समस्याएं भी पैदा हुई हैं। उदाहरण के लिये धान और गेहूं की फसलों की निरंतर बुवाई करने से कई खरपतवार पनपने का अवसर मिलता है। जल्दी-2 सिंचाई करने से मिट्टी में रोग और सूक्ष्म जीव बढ़ने का अवसर मिलता है। जिसके द्वारा मिट्टी की उर्वरता कम हो जाती है।  इन सब कारणों की वजह से किसान सामर्थ्यहीन होते हुए भी, खरपतवार नियंत्रण के लिए खरपतवार-नाशी, पानी के लिए-बिजली या डीजल, कीड़े, मकोड़े के लिए-कीटनाशक, मिट्टी की...

फसलों की रोपाई की नाली सि‍चि‍त उभरी क्‍यारी प्रणाली और फसल उत्पादन में उभरी क्‍यारी रोपाई के फायदे In bed planting systems, wheat or other crops are planted on the raised beds in ridge - furrow system. This system is often considered more appropriate for growing high value crops that are more sensitive to temporary water logging stress. Farmers often raise crops such as cotton, maize-soybean and wheat on the raised beds. However, the practice of growing rice, the major water-using crop in rice-wheat systems, on narrow raised beds was introduced only very recently in the Indo-Gangetic Plains (IGP) to reduce water use, conserve rainwater and improve system productivity. Recent work shows...

शीत शुष्क कृषि के लिए एक संभावित माइक्रो सिंचाई प्रणाली - ड्रिप सिंचाई Agriculture sector is considered as the back bone of Indian economy contributing directly and indirectly to the growth and development of our country. Since independence our country has attained significant achievements standing self sufficient in food grain production. The achievement is because of the scientific technological interventions and the utilization of the available natural resources which were in abundance. Hence Irrigation water availability predominantly being the major contributing factor in this regard.With the advancement in the agriculture sector, it now becomes imperative to utilize the available natural wealth of resources in a manageable way for sustaining agricultural production...

माइक्रो सिंचाई प्रणाली से सिंचाई क्रांति India is predominantly an agricultural country and even with current orientation towards services, still agriculture contributes ¼th of total GDP of the country, 15 percent of total export and 65 % of total population’s livelihood. After independence, India has made remarkable progress in increasing food production and productivity, credit goes to concerted efforts made under various Agri revolutions. For agriculture Land and Water are two most important resources. Of which, water (irrigation) becomes lifeline of agriculture. It is a truth in agriculture “if we fail in irrigation, we will fail in agriculture”. Water is required for agriculture as well as for other sectors (Domestic, Industries, etc) and...

Solar Power Drip Irrigation System - Best way to save energy & water भारत एक कृषि प्रधान देश है हमारे देश की 60 प्रतिशत से अधिक आबादी कृषि गतिविधियों से जुडी हुई है। कृषि उत्पादन में निवेश के रूप में ऊर्जा की महत्वपूर्ण आवश्यकता है। सामान्यतया: ग्रामीण क्षेत्रों में कृषि कार्यों में पंप सेट को चलाने के लिए डिजल का उपयोग किया जाता है जो कि आज कल प्रतिदिन महंगा हो रहा है तथा उसके धुंए और ध्वनि से जैविक पर्यावरण पर नकारात्मक प्रभाव पड़ता है । दूसरी ओर हम देंखे तो पायेंगे कि किसान अभी भी सिंचाई कि परम्परागत (बाढ़ सिचाई) विधियों का उपयोग कर रहे है जिससे पानी की  क्षति अधिक व सिंचाई ...

ग्लोबल वार्मिंग और कृषि पर प्रभाव The climate of earth is a dynamic one promoting the evolution of various living forms and changing the structure and chemical composition of the atmosphere. Over the past few decades, acceleration in the human-induced changes in the climate of the earth has become the focus of scientific and social scrutiny. The gaseous composition of the atmosphere has undergone a significant change mainly through increased industrial emissions, fossil fuel combustion, widespread deforestation and burning of biomass as well as changes in land use and land management practices. These anthropogenic activities have resulted in an increased emission of radiatively active gases, e.g., carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH3)...
