भारत में गेहूं के गुणवत्ता मानक। India is the second largest producer of wheat in the world with a production of 92.46 MT in the year 2012-13 . Wheat is the staple food and is one of the main source of calories and protein to most of the Indian population. Three species of wheat namely, T. aestivum (bread wheat), T. durum and T. dicoccum are cultivated in the country The grain structure of these three different wheat types is different and therefore different types of food products are prepared from these wheat types (Table 1). The quality requirement of wheat for different products like chapatti, bread, biscuit and pasta are are also...

गेहूं के विभिन्न अंत उत्पादों के पोषण संबंधी मूल्य पर प्रसंस्करण का प्रभाव To meet the energy need of the ever growing world’s population, wheat is the second most widely gowned cereal after rice in the world. The importance of wheat is mainly due to the fact that its grain can be processed into various end products like flour, semolina, and other bakery products. The quality of these products is directly proportional to preserving the nutrient density of wheat while processing. Table 1, shows the nutritional composition of different end products which is comparable with the whole wheat grains. Processing of wheat grain involves different regulated steps right from the harvesting...

गेहूं अनाज का वैज्ञानिक भंडारण Agricultural commodities have to undergo a series of operations such as harvesting, threshing, winnowing, grading, bagging/packing, transportation and storage before they reach to the consumers. There are significant losses at all these stages.  The most economically important step in case of the cereals like wheat is the storage of the grain produce. Storage is the interim phase in the chain of transporting agricultural products from farmers to consumers. Losses during the storage constitute a significant share of food grain loss in post production operations. With the production of nearly 87 million tonnes of wheat India has potential to meet the food requirement of the country. Losses in wheat...

गेहूं के गुणवत्तायुकत बीज का उत्पादन करें। Wheat is a one of the important cereal crop and India is the second largest producer of wheat in the world after China. Seed has played a crucial role in agriculture since ancient times. In modern agriculture also quality seed is an essential input that helps in exploiting the full potential of a variety. The seed that reaches to the farmers should have high genetic purity as well as high physical, physiological and health quality. In India farmers select and save the seed for next year sowing so therefore the seed supplied to the farmers should be of best quality. Therefore best practice to...

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...

Post harvest management and storage of wheat विश्‍व में उगाई जाने वाले अनाजों में गेहूँ का स्थान धान एवं मक्का के पश्‍चात तीसरा है और यह सभी प्रमुख सभ्यताओं में स्थायी खाद्य है। 1960 के दौरान हरित क्रांति द्वारा प्रोत्साहित होने के कारण विश्‍व का लगभग 36 प्रतिषत गेहूँ का उत्पादन एशिया में होता है। लगभग एक दशक से भारत का गेहूँ उत्पादन में चीन के बाद दूसरा स्थान है जिसके कारण भारत एक खाद्यान्न आत्म निर्भर देश्‍ा हो गया है। वर्श 2011-12 के दौरान भारत में गेहूँ का उत्पादन 93.96 मिलियन टन था जो कि पूरे विष्व में गेहूँ उत्पादन का लगभग 15 प्रतिशत है। 1950-51 के दौरान 6.45 मिलियन टन...

लंबे समय तक भंडारण गेहूं की औद्योगिक गुणवत्ता खराब करता है: इसे नियंत्रित करने के लिए उपाय  With the increasing ever growing global population, maintaining the nutritional quality of wheat is emerging as a crucial step forward. Nutritional deterioration starts right from the field before harvesting the crops to the storage and the final consumption (processing loss). The wheat grain contains 2-3% germ, 13-17% bran and 80-85% mealy endosperm. The wheat bran is mainly rich in fiber (53%), vitamin B complex and minerals which are lost from the starchy endosperm during the first stage of milling. The endosperm mainly contains energy-yielding starch. The germ lies at one end of the grain...

भारत मे गेंहू उगाने की तकनीक  India is the fourth largest producer of wheat in the world. Wheat is an important cereal crop grown in India. Wheat is cultivated in almost all parts of India. Geographically India has been divided into six wheat growing zones. Wheat is a rabi crop which is sown in the beginning of winter (November-December) and is harvested in the beginning of summer. Sowing of wheat: Optimum date of sowing depends on type of variety, weather, soil, irrigation facility etc. However, most appropriate time of sowing is when the daily ambient temperature drops to 20-22 0C. Therefore second fortnight of November is optimum time of sowing in Northern plainsLast Dates...

गेहूं में संकर बीज उत्पादन प्रणाली Heterosis is the manifestation of heterozygosity expressed as increased vigour, size, fruitfulness and resistance to disease, insects or climatic extremes relative to either the high-parent or the mid-parent value. Varying estimates of heterosis have been reported in wheat for various traits of economic importance. It is generally known that hybrid advantage is a function of three factors: breeding-method efficiency (rate-of-progress); negative or positive effects of the system used to produce the hybrid; and the inherent level of heterosis. In wheat, one of the major constraints in hybrid development has been the lack of an effective and efficient seed production system. Here we discuss two different methods of seed...
