The disease could be managed by fungicide applications but due to several associated environmental and health-related issues, there was a necessity to formulate some eco-friendly measures for downy mildew management. Thus attempts were made to find out the usefulness of three biocontrol agents (Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas fluorescens and Trichoderma viride) and two fungicides (mancozeb 64% + metalaxyl 4% and metalaxyl) under field conditions for three seasons (2017-2019) against downy mildew. The least downy mildew incidence (14.37%) was observed with seed treatment + foliar spray of B. subtilis as compared to untreated control (31.30%) with 54.10% disease reduction followed by seed treatment + foliar spray of P. fluorescens (17.58% disease incidence) with 43.82% disease control. The same treatments were significantly superior over others in increasing the green fodder yield by 56.59 and 40.79% respectively. Another treatment proven effective was seed treatment + two foliar sprays of T. viride which provided more than 43% reduction in downy mildew incidence as compared to chemical check which provided 30% disease control and increase in green fodder yield. These findings advocated the potential use of biocontrol agents against downy mildew of pearl millet in an eco-friendly manner.","PeriodicalId":49636,"journal":{"name":"Range Management and Agroforestry","volume":"325 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135842775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results revealed that selection of the crops in different cropping systems 8 significantly influenced green fodder yield and fodder quality. Among various fodder base cropping systems, NBH + cowpea/ berseem system was recorded with significantly higher green fodder (177 t/ha/year) and dry fodder (31.5 t/ha/year) yields and also fodder quality attributes. The highest crude protein yield (40.7 q/ha/year) was also recorded in NBH + cowpea/ berseem intercropping system. In terms of economics, the highest gross and net returns were obtained from baby corn-cowpea-chinese cabbage (Rs 3.15 and 2.40 lakh/ha/year, respectively), closely followed by NBH + cowpea/ berseem (Rs 2.74 and 2.15 lakh/ha/year, respectively).

The results showed that the combination of SST fb propaquizafop POE was superior on berseem plant m-2, grass weed (GW) density and biomass, broadleaf weeds (BL) density and green fodder yield (GFY). However, SST fb propaquizafop POE and propaquizafop POE alone was comparable with the grass weed density and biomass throughout the study. Furthermore, it indicates that POE application of propaquizafop is not an effective option for BL control in berseem. Furthermore, the weed problem is a threat throughout the growth period of the crop.

Both advanced and delayed sowings recorded significant reduction in green fodder and dry matter yield.

The physiologically matured ripe yellowish green-coloured fruits of neem were harvested manually, and the seeds were extracted by manual and mechanical de-pulping. In each method, skin weight (kg), pulp weight (kg), man-hour requirements, cost of de-pulping (Rs/kg), seed recovery (%) and moisture content (%) were calculated. After de-pulping, seeds were manually washed with water and time taken for washing the de-pulped seeds was also calculated. After that seeds were dried in threshing yard and moisture content of seed was calculated. Dried seeds were processed using cleaner cum grader in mechanical method and sieves in manual method. In both the methods, fruit to seed recovery (%) were calculated. The effect of manual and mechanical seed extraction on viability (%), germination (%) and seedling vigour was analyzed. Results revealed that mechanical method of de-pulping (45.5kg) exhibited an additional wet seed weight of 1.5kg compared to manual method (44kg). The seed recovery from one ton of neem fruits was 170.5 kg in manual de-pulping and 164 kg in mechanical de-pulping. The processing cost of one kg of neem seed was Rs.9.03 for manual de-pulping and Rs.2.49 for mechanical de-pulping. Among the two methods of seed extraction, even though there was not much variation in seed recovery, germination and seedling vigour, mechanical method had the advantage of 160 minutes less time duration for extraction and minimal processing cost per kg of seed extraction with higher seedling vigour index.","PeriodicalId":49636,"journal":{"name":"Range Management and Agroforestry","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135842786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
