What to do for more yield in Gram?

13/10/2017Posted on

Under rainfed condition, foliar spray of 2% urea at the time of flowering and 10 days thereafter, seed priming (soaking of seed for 4-5 hours) and sowing seed at 10 cm depth have been found benefitial in increasing the productivity.

Suitable Climate for Wheat

12/10/2017Posted on

Suitable Climate for Wheat:-

  • Wheat is mainly a cold and arid climate crop, so during the crop planting From 20 to 22º C, Optimal tempreture 25ºC in the time of Vegetative growth and from 14 to 15º C at the time of ripening the temperature is excellent.
  • When the temperature is high, the crop rises quickly and the yield decreases.
  • There is a lot of damage to the crop from frost.
  • When the earring gets frosts, the seeds lose germination power and its development stops.
  • In small days, the growth of leaves and tillers is high, while the day starts to rise with the earring. For its cultivation, 60-100 cm. annual rainfall areas are suitable.
  • For the growth of plants, 50-60 percent humidity has been found suitable in the atmosphere. The cold winter and warm summers are considered suitable for the better crop of wheat.

Weed Management of Gram (chickpea)

11/10/2017Posted on

Weed management has been found as most critical input. Most effective pre emergence herbicides have been identified in which pendimethaline is most promising. Post emergence herbicides like quizalofop-ethyl have promise to control weeds.

Seed treatment of wheat

10/10/2017Posted on

Seed treatment of wheat:-

  • Wheat should be treated with carboxin 37.5% + Thiram 37.5% or Carbendazim 12% + Mancozeb 63% at the rate of 2.5 gm per kg seed or Tebuconazole DS @ 1 Gm per kg seed before sowing avoid fungal diseases like root rot, Loose smut, Flag smut and other.
  • For protection from termite should be treated with Cloropyrifos 20% @ 4 Ml per kg seed.

Symptoms of Deficiency and Dose of Sulphur in Onion

09/10/2017Posted on

Resulting of sulphur deficiency the leaves show a general overall chlorosis. The yellowing is much more uniform over the entire plant including young leaves. Soil application of Sulphur @ 30kg/ha is recommended as basal dose, although sulphur is given in many forms, but by giving sulphur 80% WDG as spraying, it also works as fungicide and miticide, so use sulphur 80% WDG @ 50 gm / 15 litres of water.

Use of Nitrogen fixing bacteria

08/10/2017Posted on

Nitrogen fixing bacteria are beneficial bacteria capable of transforming atmospheric nitrogen in to fixed nitrogen (inorganic compounds usable by plants). Same important Nitrogen fixing bacteria like Rhizobium, Azospirillum, Azotobactor etc. used by farmers as a culture. Apply through seed treatment 5 gm per kg seed or 2 kg per acre through soil application with 100 kg FYM.

Sowing and sowing time of Chickpea (Gram)

06/10/2017Posted on
  • In Unirrigated areas, sowing of gram should be done in the first fortnight of October.
  • In areas where irrigation facility is available, sowing should be done by 30th October.
  • To get more yield from the crop it is very necessary to have proper number of plants per unit in the field.
  • For proper number of plants, the seed rate and the proper distance of the plant from the row and the plant have an important role.
  • 80 kg for dry farming And for irrigated area 60 kg The amount of seed is adequate per hectare.
  • The depth of seed for the dry land crop is 7 to 10 cm. For the irrigated area, sowing of seeds should be done in depth from 5 to 7 cm depth. Line to line distance 45 to 50 Cm should be kept on.

Irrigation in Gram:-

  • Heavy irrigation is not required in Gram.
  • Two irrigations given at branching ( Before Flowering) and pod development stage registered significantly higher grain yield in some regions but one irrigation given at branching ( Before Flowering) was found optimum to increase the grain yield.

Suitable soil for Gram

02/10/2017Posted on

Gram is grown on a wide range of soils in India. In Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh, black cotton soils are used. Though gram is grown on all kinds of soils, sandy loam to clay loam is considered to be the most suitable which are found in Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Rajasthan.  For better growth soil should be well drained and not too heavy. Heavy soils have a high water retention capacity which encourages heavy vegetative growth due to which light becomes limiting and decreases fruiting. The soil chosen for its cultivation should be free from excessive soluble salts and near neutral in reaction (6.5-75 pH).
