An experiment was conducted during the winter (rabi) seasons of 2020-21 and 2021-22 at Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Budgam- Shere Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology, Kashmir, to evaluate the growth and yield variability of wheat as effected by split application of potassium (K) and nitrogen (N). The experiment was set up in a split...

Vegetables are important constituents of Indian agriculture and nutritional security due to their short duration, high yielding capacity, nutritional richness, economic viability and ability to generate on farm and off farm employment. Increasing per capita income, health consciousness, urbanisation, increasing working women, shifting of farmers to...

Remote sensing technology has revolutionized agriculture management and monitoring by providing valuable information on crop health, soil conditions, weather patterns, and overall land management. The reflectance data are progressively being exploited in agriculture with the momenta gained in ground-based, airborne, and satellite remote sensing. Th...

Twenty-nine genotypes of cherry tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L. var. cerasiforme) were evaluated for their genetic variability and heritability. A wide range of genetic variability was observed for twenty traits of cherry tomato genotypes. The analysis of variance was significant for all the characters indicating genetic variability in the genotype...

The study was conducted to evaluate the turnip variety purple top white globe for yield and yield contributing characters through front line demonstration in District Budgam for three consecutive years 2018,2019 and 2020.A total of 25 FLD's were distributed in village Roshanabad of block Narbal, District Budgam. The results obtained reveals that th...

Rice is the most important crop at the global level, as it used as a staple food in most of the countries of the world. Transplanting aged seedlings of paddy has a detrimental effect on the crop performance, which needs to be overcome for sustaining the productivity. Leaf colour chart based nitrogen application is an efficient and economical tool f...

WOFOST version 7.1.3 is a computer model that simulates the growth and production of annual field crops. All the run options are operational through a graphical user interface named WOFOST Control Center version 1.8 (WCC). WCC facilitates selecting the production level, and input data sets on crop, soil, weather, crop calendar, hydrological field c...

In order to study the effect of seedling age and time of nitrogen application on growth, yield attributes and yield of rice (Oryza sativa L.), a field experiment was earned out at Research Farm of Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology of Kashmir, Shalimar, Srinagar. The experiment was laid out in randomized completely bl...

A field experiment was conducted in Kashmir valley during rabi season 2011-12 to study the effect of date of sowing and varieties on yield of brown sarson (Brassica rapa L.) under temperate Kashmir. The results indicated that, days taken to different phenological stages, yield components, seed, stover, biological and oil yield were affected by trea...

Water is the prime mover in agricultural development in rainfed agriculture. For better use of water in agriculture in water-limited environments, efforts are needed from different research disciplines; agronomists, plant breeders, plant physiologists, plant biotechnologists, water engineers and others, to develop new approaches in water use. Among...
