On Farm Trials
Year | Title of the OFT | Final Recommendation |
---|---|---|
2013-14 | Varietal evaluation of Wheat. Use of Gypsum and green manure (Dhaincha) in soil. Management of sucking pests through seed treatment in mustard. Assessment of Urea Molasses Mineral Block (UMMB) and minerals supplementation for better productive and reproductive efficiency in buffaloes. Assessment of improved pearl millet varieties for better quality fodder and higher productivity. |
RAJ – 4120 may be grown in place of RAJ – 4037 and RAJ – 3765 in Tonk district. There is urgent need to introduce and popularize the use of green manuring with Gypsum during Kharif season in fallow field which are reserved for mustard cultivation in Rabi season. Seed treatment in mustard crop with imidacloprid 600FS@8ml/kg seed recommended for sucking pest in oilseed based cropping system in Tonk district. Farmers are recommended to feed balanced ration to their livestock. The supplementation of urea molasses mineral block in dairy animal ration maintains energy and protein ration in the diets and minerals bridge the mineral deficiency and produce more milk and have better reproductive efficiency. Pearl millet fodder variety AVKB-19 may be grown in place of local variety and RAJ-171 in Tonk district. |
2014-15 | Effect of seed treatment by new insecticides on germination, termite damage and yield in Wheat . Combating Iron-Deficiency Anemia through supplementation in the diet during last trimester of pregnancy. |
Seed treatment with Clorantrandilipride (18.5SC@2ml/Kg seed) gaves 15% more seedling/m2 and grain yield/ha over treated with Fipronil5SC@5ml/Kg seed and Chloropyriphos@4.5ml/Kg seed. 1. Awareness should be increased about Oral supplementation during pregnancy (Iron and folic acid tablets) among farm women. 2. One locally available Vit c rich fruit must be consumed to increase absorption of iron in body. 3. It is recommended changing in cooking and eating methods of green leafy vegetables can be useful in raising hemoglobin level. |
