    Abstract: India produces around 19.0 million tonnes of tomatoes annually, which is insufficient to meet the ever-increasing demand. A big gap of tomato productivity (72.14 t ha –1 ) between India (24.66 t ha –1 ) and the USA (96.8 t ha –1 ) exist, which can be bridged by integrating trellis system of shoot training, shoot pruning, liquid fertilizers, farmyard manure, and mulching technologies. Therefore, the present experiment was conducted on tomato (cv. Himsona) during 2019–2020 at farmers' fields to improve tomato productivity and quality. There were five treatments laid in a randomized block design (RBD) with three replications; T 1 [Farmer practice on the flatbed with RDF @ N 120 :P 60 :K 60  + FYM @6.0 t ha −1 without mulch], T 2 [T 1  + Polythene mulch (50 microns)], T 3 [Tomato plants grown on the raised bed with polythene mulch + FYM @ 8.0 t ha −1  + Single shoot trellis system + Side shoot pruning + Liquid Fertilizer (LF 1 —N 19 :P 19 :K 19 ) @ 2.0 g l –1 for vegetative growth + Liquid Fertilizer (LF 2 —N 0 : P 52 : K 34 ) @ 1.5 g l –1 for improving fruit quality], T 4 [Tomato plants grown on the raised bed with polythene mulch + FYM @ 8.0 t ha −1  + Single shoot trellis system + Side shoot pruning + LF 1 @ 4.0 g l –1  + LF 2 @ 3.0 g l –1 ], and T 5 [Tomato plants grown on the raised bed with polythene mulch + FYM @ 10.0 t ha −1  + Single shoot trellis system + Side shoot pruning + LF 1 @ 6.0 g l –1  + LF 2 @ 4.5 g l –1 ]. The results revealed that tomato plant grown on the raised beds with polythene mulch, shoot pruning, trellising, liquid fertilizers, and farmyard manure (i.e., T 5 ) recorded higher shoot length, dry matter content, and tomato productivity by 20.75–141.21, 18.79–169.4, and 18.89–160.87% as compared to T 4 –T 1 treatments, respectively. The T 5 treatment also recorded the highest water productivity (28.39 kg m –3 ), improved fruit qualities, net return (10,751 USD ha –1 ), benefit–cost ratio (3.08), microbial population, and enzymatic activities as compared to other treatments. The ranking and hierarchical clustering of treatments confirmed the superiority of the T 5 treatment over all other treatments.

    Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during winter season of 2011-12 and 2012-13 at Research Farm, AICRP on wheat and barley, Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology of Jammu to study the effect of different herbicides and its mixtures on broad spectrum weed management and productivity of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Unchecked weeds growth caused 40.13 to 57.18% reduction in grain yield of wheat. The lowest weed density and dry matter of weeds and higher yield and yield attributes were found with application of ready mix formulations of clodinafop+metribuzin (60+210 g/ha), sulfosulfuron+metsulfuron (32 g/ha) and pinoxaden+metribuzin (40+210g/ha). The maximum weed control efficiency and lowest weed index were observed with clodinafop+metribuzin (60+210 g/ha) followed by sulfosulfuron+metsulfuron (32 g/ha) and pinoxaden+metribuzin (40+210 g/ha). The alone application of clodinafop 60 g/ha was significantly reduced the weed density and weed dry weight than alone application of metribuzin 210 g/ha, pinoxaden @ 40 g/ha and sulfosulfuron 25 g/ha but these were significantly lower than weedy check.

    Abstract: Slopy agricultural lands are more susceptible to soil erosion and hence are priority sites for the application of protective soil management practices. A conservation agriculture field experiment was established at a 6% field slope in 2011 at the ICAR-IISWC Research Farm, Dehradun, Uttarakhand, which is situated in the Northwestern Himalayan Region, India. The objective of this study was to experimentally determine the long-term effects of tillage practices on runoff and soil erosion. The tillage practices opted for were conventional tillage (CT), minimum tillage (MT), and zero tillage (ZT). Event-based runoff and soil loss were monitored during three monsoon seasons (June to September) from 2018 to 2020. Results showed lower runoff and soil loss in the ZT plot than in CT and MT plots. CT produced 1.51 and 2.53 times higher runoff than MT and ZT, respectively. Moreover, this increased runoff generated 1.84 and 5.10 times higher soil erosion in CT than in MT and ZT, respectively. The extreme rainfall events being less than 10% generated 54.93%, 57.35%, and 63.43% of the total runoff volume which resulted in 82.08%, 85.49%, and 91.00% of the total soil loss in CT, MT, and ZT plots, respectively. For the same amount of rainfall, the reduction in soil loss was 39% and 68% in the CT and ZT plots, respectively, at the highest growth stage in comparison to the initial crop growth stage. The values of runoff reduction benefit (RRB) and sediment reduction benefit (SRB) showed a reduction in runoff (63.53%) and soil loss (80.39%) in the CT. Results concluded that conservation tillage reduced runoff and soil loss significantly even in extreme rainfall events.

    Abstract: A field experiment conducted at Jammu (Jammu and Kashmir) during summer season of 2013 to study the influence of sowing dates and varieties on the yield, heat use efficiency, helio-thermal use efficiency, energy utilization efficiencies and economics of summer mungbean. The experiment was conducted in a split plot design consisting of four sowing dates (20th March, 5th April, 20th April and 5th May) as main-plot treatments and four varieties (SML 668, Samrat, Meha and IPM 02-3) as sub–plot treatments. Higher grain yield (9.33 q ha-1) of summer mungbean was recorded under 20th March sowing date, which was statistically at par with 5th April sowing but significantly higher than 20th April and 5th May sowing. Among the varieties, Samrat produced significantly higher grain yield (7.82 q ha-1) than all other varieties except SML 668. But, the heat use efficiency (HUE), helio-thermal use efficiency (HTUE) and energy pattern was significantly higher at 20th March than other dates of sowing. The varieties Samrat and SML 668 recorded significantly higher HUE, HTUE and energy pattern than IPM 02-3 and Meha. The highest benefit cost ratio (1.42) was recorded with 5th April sowing date closely followed by 20th March (1.39). The variety Samrat also registered the highest benefit cost ratio (1.07) followed by SML-668.

    Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during rabi 2012–13 and 2013–14 at research farm of SKUAST-Jammu to study the effect of sowing dates and weed management practices on productivity of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Among sowing dates, 15th November sown crop recorded lowest total weed density and total dry weight of weeds as compared to crop sown on 25th December. Crop sown on 15th November also recorded highest yield attributes and grain yield which ultimately led to maximum net returns of ₹51316/ha and B:C ratio (1.06). Significantly low weed density and dry matter of weeds and higher grain yield were recorded with ready mix application of sulfosulfuron + metsulfuron 30 g/ha + 2 g/ha. Maximum weed control efficiency, crop resistance index and lowest weed index, weed persistence index were observed with the application of sulfosulfuron + metsulfuron 30 g/ha + 2 g/ha. Significantly highest sedimentation value, crude protein and glutenin content was also recorded with the ready mix application of sulfosulfuron + metsulfuron 30 g/ha + 2 g/ha as post emergence. Maximum benefit:cost ratio was also obtained with the application of sulfosulfuron + metsulfuron 30 g/ha + 2 g/ha

    Abstract: In North West Himalayan region, farmers tend to face problems related to production and natural resource management due to steep slopes; fragile geology and frequent landslides which leads to high soil erosion. The present study was conducted with the objective to assess the impact of Farmer FIRST Project on the livelihood of beneficiary farmers of study area. A sample of 300 farmers comprising of 180 beneficiary and 120 non-beneficiary farmers were selected through multi stage random sampling. To delineate the impact, with-without and before-after comparison on different aspects of Farmer FIRST Project were carried out. Study revealed that there exists a significant difference between beneficiary farmers and non-beneficiary farmers on various aspects, viz. awareness level, change in decision making behaviour, change in marketing behaviour, change in yield, change in income, change in cropping intensity and change in average annual employment days. Before-after comparison of beneficiary farmers showed that there is a significant increase in crop yield, cultivable area and average annual employment days. Hence, there is a need of upscaling the project for inclusion of more numbers of farmers and securing their livelihood.
