    The present study was conducted during two consecutive rabi seasons in the year 2010–11 and 2011–12 under on farm trial at farmers field in red soils of Jhansi district in Bundelkhand Zone of Uttar Pradesh by Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Bharari, Jhansi, C.S.A. University of Agriculture & Technology, Kanpur to assess the effect of Integrated Nutrient Management module on wheat yield. The results revealed that the application of NPK @ 120:60:40 kg/ha with seed treatment of Azotobactor @ 200 gm−1 kg seed and PSB @ 2.5 kg −1 mix with 60 kg FYM applied in the soil before sowing (T3) improved the grain yield of wheat by 29.3% followed by 18.1% in application of NPK @ 120:60:40 kg ha1 with seed treatment of Azotobactor @ 200 gm−1 10 kg seed (T2) over Farmers practice (T1 control). The highest net return of Rs. 50390 ha−1 was found in T3 followed by Rs. 43650 in T2 and lowest of Rs. 32865 in T1. The Benefit: Cost ratio was recorded the highest (3.30) in treatment T3 and 2.96 in treatment T2, respectively.

    The present study described the performance of a set of six elite genotypes of mid late maturity group viz, CoS 99259, Co 98016, Co 98017, CoH 110, CoH 119 and CoJ 89 (CoJ 20193) developed at UP Council of Sugarcane Research, Shahjahanpur (CoS), Sugarcane Breeding Institute, Regional Center, Karnal (Co), CCS Harayana Agricultural University, Regional Research Station, Uchani (CoH) and Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana (CoJ), for economic traits based on two plant crops and one ratoon crop at two locations of Punjab. The appraisal for cane yield, juice quality and ratoonability inferred high potential of CoJ 89 and CoH 119 under Punjab conditions. The comparable performance at both the locations of Punjab, viz. Sugarcane Research Farm, Ladhowal, Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana and its Regional Research Station, Faridkot indicated their wider adaptability. As per Annual AICRP Breeding Report, 2005, Co J 89 ranked fourth for cane yield and second for both sucrose content and CCS % at the zonal level. Owing to elite performance of CoJ 89 for cane yield and quality, it has been notified by Central Varietal Release Committee for general cultivation in NW zone comprising Haryana, Punjab, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand.

    The study undertaken to assess the genetic changes on yield, agronomic traits and foliar diseases during the last 39 years (1969 to 2008), revealed 103.5% yield improvement over the years @ 2.6% per year. The annual genetic gain in seed yield of soybean varieties released in India during this period was approximately 23 kg ha−1. This yield increase was assigned to increase in number of pods and seeds per plant. Seeds per plant increased by 1.56% per year. Foliar diseases decreased consistently over the period. Varieties namely Kalitur, Bragg, Punjab 1, PK 308, PK 471, JS 71–05, NRC 2, PS 1042, JS 93–05 and PS 1347 were stable over the seasons for the yield. Varieties namely Kalitur, Bragg, Punjab 1 and PS 1042 were found suitable in unfavorable seasons while varieties viz., PK 308, PK 471, JS 71–05, NRC 2, JS 93–05 and PS 1347 were found suitable in favorable seasons. None of the varieties was found consistently superior for all the characters in all the seasons.

    Ninety-nine sorghum landraces collected from Uttar Pradesh were evaluated during kharif 2008 and 2009 for 22 agro-morphological traits using minimal descriptors developed by NBPGR. Analysis of variance showed significant differences among genotypes for 22 traits. Large variation among genotypes was found for the traits viz., days to 50% flowering (66–87 days), leaf length (62.1–101.5 cm), leaf width (5.0–9.0 cm), number of leaves/plant (9–16), plant height (215.1–383.0 cm), ear head length (10.1–34.3 cm), ear head width (3.7–9.5 cm), 100-seed weight (1.7–3.5 g), days to maturity (103–126 days), stem fresh weight/5plants (1063–3200 g) and stem dry weight/5plants (569–2038 g). Selections can be made for traits viz., days to flowering, leaf length, leaf orientation, days to maturity, plant height and grain luster governed by additive gene action.

    The analysis of variance revealed signfficant genotypic difference for all the nine characters studied. Seed yield/plant had highest co-efficlent of genotypic and phenotypic variability. The characters studied showed high heritability with highest value estimated for seed yield/plant. Estimate of genetic advance in per cent of mean was also observed highest for seed yield/plant. The estimates of genetic advance in per cent of mean were comparatively low for oil content and days to flower. The low values of GCV, h2 also observed for the characters such as oil content and days to flower suggest that these characters cannot be improved effectively merely by selection.

    Background: Climate change causes variation in global temperature in last two decades which causes detrimental effects on agricultural crops being grown in arid and semi-arid regions. Chickpea crop sensitive to variation in temperature as the late-sown crop is exposed to high temperatures ( greater than 35°C) at its reproductive stage in the months of February and March and early sown crops is exposed to low temperature ( less than 5°C) at its vegetative stage in December and January so optimum sowing time plays a vital role for overall growth and development of the plants. Methods: The experiment comprising of three sowing dates that is 15th October (early sown condition in Haryana), 15th November (Normal sown condition in Haryana) and 15th December (late sown condition in Haryana) with ten chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genotypes namely ICCV 88503, ICCV 92944, HC-1, HC-3, HC-5, H12-64, H13-01, H13-02, H14-01 and H14-04 in randomized block design during Rabi season of 2017-18 and 2018-19 at Pulses Section, Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar Result: Statistically no significant differences in seed yield was recorded between 15th October and 15th November sowing, however, further delay in sowing to 15th December showed significant reduction in seed yield while maximum values for recorded physiological parameters in chickpea genotypes were found in 15th November sowing and minimum in 15th December sowing. Among genotypes maximum physiological parameters and seed yield were observed in H12-64 and H13-01 while minimum were found in H14-04.

    Evaluation of Bt. cotton at Dharwad (Karnataka) indicated that Bt-cotton genotypes were far superior than non Bt genotypes and local check DHH-11. They have produced 41 to 66 per cent higher yield than DHH-11 hybrid. Among the three Rasi Bt cotton hybrids, RCH-2 Bt cotton was the top yielder and it gave 5–17 per cent higher yield than other Bt-genotypes. Bt-hybrid RCH-144 Bt recorded 71 per cent increase in boll-number over DHH-11. However, there was no significant difference for number of seeds per boll, number of monopodia, number of sympodia, plant height and per cent bollworm incidence among Bt, non Bt and commercial check and the higher yield was attributed due to more number of bolls per plant.
