After the extraction of oil from oilseeds, the residue is obtained. Those residues are known as oilseed meal/oilseed cake which are used as fodder or are discarded as waste. From one ton of oilseed approx. 500 to 650 kilos of the meal is obtained depending on the type of oilseed and as by practice half of the oilseed cake received from the production is being dissipated. Oilseed meals are nutritionally rich and are a major source of protein, fatty acids, polyphenols, and dietary fibre. Composite meal was prepared by mixing sesame, flaxseed & groundnut meal in equal amount for nutritional evaluation. Crude protein, fat, ash, fiber, antioxidant activity, total phenol, phytic acid and protein digestibility of sesame, flaxseed, groundnut and composite meal ranged from 37.16-40.12 per cent, 10.95-32.03 per cent, 3.10-8.72 per cent, 5.66-9.58 per cent, 9.18-11.06 mg TE 100-1 gm, 583.64-1070.60 mg GAE 100-1 gm, 276.60- 314.00 mg 100-1 gm, and 75.11-81.09 per cent, respectively. Value added product should be developed from sesame meal, flaxseed meal, and groundnut meal which can be used individually or in combination for enrichment of daily diet at low cost.

It is widely cultivated for forage purposes because of its high regenerating capability. Oat grain has tremendous health benefits. Therefore the study of variability and correlation among yield contributing traits becomes important. Keeping this in view, in the present research sixteen morphological traits were studied for fifty six diverse oat genotypes. The experiment was conducted in RCBD design during Rabi 2017-2018. Significant variation was seen for all the traits under study. High GCV and PCV were seen for most of the most of traits except plant height, days to 50% flowering, days to maturity. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance was observed for most of the characters viz., flag leaf length, leaf length, leaf width, leaf stem ratio, internode length, number of tillers plant-1, peduncle length, axis length, number of spikelets plant-1, seed yield plant-1, 100-seed weight, green fodder plant-1 and dry fodder plant-1. Genotypes namely HFO878, HFO-614, HFO-879 and HFO-707 showed good performance for both seed yield as well as green fodder yield. A study of variability, genetic advance, heritability and correlation will provide an opportunity for fruitful selection of the genotypes based on traits with high genetic advance and heritability and showing positive significant correlation with economic yield. Among the different traits which showed positive significant correlation with seed yield and green fodder yield, interestingly tillers plant-1 showed positive significant correlation both.","PeriodicalId":418512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agriculture Research and Technology","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126265063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the present study, Kanoli river watershed located in Nashik district of Maharashtra was considered as the study area. The watershed was delineated into seven sub-watersheds and hypsometric analysis was carried out for all of them using the digital contour map, which was generated using Arc/Info GIS. In analysis, a curve is derived by plotting the relative heights (h/H) and relative areas (a/A); the obtained curve is called as hypsometric curve. The area under the Hypsometric curve is the Hypsometric Integral (HI). The hypsometric integral values for all of the sub-watersheds of Kanoli river ranges between 0.45 and 0.88. It was observed from HI that the sub-watersheds WS2, WS4, WS6 are in the mature stage and moving toward the deteriorating stage. The sub-watershed WS3 yielded higher hypsometric integral value, explaining its late youthful stage which calls for suitable measures of soil and water conservation. Further, sub-watersheds WS1, WS5 and WS7 have got very high value of hypsometric integral which takes them to young stage i.e. very susceptible to erosion. Therefore, these sub-watersheds are more prone to subsequent erosion activities and needs immediately appropriate soil and water conservation measures","PeriodicalId":418512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agriculture Research and Technology","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131546727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some factors, such as increased temperatures and longer droughts periods, are likely to depress production. Managing climate risks is a major challenge of today and for the future. To extend the period of forecast for 3-7 days i.e., medium range weather forecast for the benefit of farming, community the India Meteorological Department has been issuing district level medium range forecast to the 127 agrometeorological field units in the country. Under this project apart from weather forecasts, agro-advisories based on weather are also being issued for the benefit of farming community by the AMFU’s. Advisories are farmers bulletin, which take into account the prevailing weather, soil and crop condition, weather forecasts and, suggest measures to minimize the losses (crop or livestock) and effective utilization of inputs (irrigation, fertilizers pesticides etc.,) and also suggest contingent crop planning.The following points are to be kept in mind for preparing effective agro-advisory bulletins:Identification of weather sensitive field operations, Accurate weather forecast taking into cognizance local weather. Real time information on crops (major crops, varieties, sowing time, phonological stage, status of pests and diseases etc.). Reliable source of information .Crop weather calendars, easily understandable language.The feedback is collected from the contact progressive farmers, on usefulness of the advisories as well as suggestions for its improvements. Systemtic study conducted by this unit on economic impact of the project in six villages in Solapur District revealed that there is a benefit of 12- 23% due to adoption of agromet advisories. The contingency plans are needed if following conditions prevail :Failure of south-West Monsoon, Delayed onset or early withdrawal of monsoon, Deficit or erratic rainfall, Damage to crops due to cyclones floods etc. Crop loss due to droughts, Insufficient supply of irrigation water or late release of canal water, Long dry spells, Heat or cold waves, Severe pest or disease outbreaks due to favorable weather conditions.Medium range weather forecast is useful in issuing location specific weather based Agro-advisors to tailor the agricultural operations. By closely monitoring seasonal conditions and using medium range weather forecast an effective contingency cropping strategy is possible. Timely dissemination of these advisories/ contingency crop plans/measures will help the farmers to maximize the yield by optimum use of inputs and enhance the economic returns of the farmers.","PeriodicalId":418512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Agriculture Research and Technology","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122100459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
