Application of diverse conventional and non-conventional approaches/ technologies for sugarcane improvement meet problems of complex genome, narrow genetic base of crop, genetic recombination, and poor fertility coupled with long breeding cycle. To sustain the production, productivity of sugar industry in rational manner, it is imperative to counsel sugarcane farmers for the selection of ideal varieties based on growth duration and maturity groups, planting crop season and kind of crop (plant/ratoon) to be taken.

In India poor market infrastructure, inadequate marketing experience and agricultural inputs are available for the farmers. These farmers need to access information about new technologies before they can consider adopting them and thus they look up to research and extension agents as sources of new technologies. Access to appropriate information and knowledge is an important factor for successful agricultural production.

Increasing public concern about the potential damage of chemical inputs in agricultural production systems has challenged industry to develop new and effective pest management and control strategies against insect pests, diseases and weeds. These new strategies must be less harmful to the environment than the current, chemical-based ones, and they must also safeguard the health of agricultural workers and consumers.

The excess usage of synthetic fertilizers with minimum application of organic inputs results into nutrient deficiencies, deterioration of soil and also causes environment pollution. It also affects the sustainability of agricultural production. Sustainable agricultural production includes the management of soil organic carbon, use of organic manure such as animal manure, green manure, crop residues, and sewage sludge. Since only organic manure cannot fulfill the nutrient demands of agriculture crops, hence integration of fertilizers and organic sources is the need of the hour.

Sustainable agriculture has become a burning issue due to “energy crisis” and “environmental protection”. One aspect of sustainable agriculture is Integrated Nutrient Management (INM). Many regions in India like Kashmir, Himachal and other hilly regions have huge potential for quality flower production. Since floriculture is energy and cost intensive type of farming, the input cost of fertilisers is very high, which can be avoided by going for alternative methods like INM.

The study aims at identifying the potential role of Indian farmwomen in fruit based production system along with realising their constraints which limits their considerable contribution in terms of technology application, use of agri-inputs and commercial marketing. The magnitude of their participation is hardly visualized, which creates perceptible gender gap. The emerging issues of farmer suicide, rural-urban migration of male members and disenchantment of rural youth in agriculture, overburden the Indian farmwomen with farming activities.

To enhance productivity and food safety Indian Agriculture become more mechanized and science based by using inputs and the plant growth regulators are among of them; plant growth regulators has quicker impact on vegetative as well as yield of the crops. As it has various advantages like less time consuming to treat the plant and environment friendly. Vegetables crops are rich sources of vitamins and minerals. Use of growth regulators in vegetable production must be specific their action and toxicologically and environmentally safe.

An experiment was conducted during two consecutive years of kharif 2012 and 2013 at Agricultural Research Station, Banswara to find out the suitable drip irrigation regimes and optimum nitrogen dose for Bt cotton. The experiment was laid-out in split plot design with four replications having twelve treatment combinations. Results revealed that, the application of irrigation at 0.6 ET gave significantly higher seed cotton yield (1989 kg/ha) as compared to irrigation regime of 1.0 ET and surface irrigation (control),but it was found at par with application of irrigation at 0.8 ET (1905 kg/ha).

Water is a well known basic and the most important input for agricultural production. A major quantity of water is utilized for irrigation in agriculture. In traditional surface irrigation method the losses in water conveyance and application are large. These losses can be considerably reduced by farmers by adopting drip irrigation technology. Proper economization of water would be advantageous to the farmers as well as it would be helpful in bringing more land under cultivation.

Herbicide is the most important input in the modern agriculture. The use of herbicides has been expanding more rapidly than that of other pesticides. The injudicious application of herbicides in agriculture causes the contamination of the soil with toxic chemicals and become harmful to the microorganisms, plant, wildlife and man. In view of the above a field experiment was conducted during rabi season of 2015-16 with the groundnut variety TAG-24 with twenty four treatment combination in three replications.

The field experiment was carried out with different grade foliar spray solutions and soil application of nano and conventional multi micronutrient fertilizers to study their effect on yield and economics of pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] during kharif season, 2015 at Main Agriculture Research Station, Raichur. The results revealed that foliar spray of either conventional or nanomulti micronutrients along with RDF have shown higher grain yields of pigeonpea when compared with the RDF alone (941.8 kg ha-1 ).

ICTs (Information and Communication Technology) usage in third world countries is playing a vital role for the enhancement of farmer’s business towards agriculture. Recently, communication through ICTs is considered very important in enhancing farmers’ access to better understand agricultural position. Farming communities appreciate ICTs as easy, fast and convenient way to communicate and get prompt answers of respective problems. Nowadays, the ICTs have generated an opportunity for the farmers specially to get the information about marketing and weather.

Organic inputs being bulky and concentrated in nature are capable of supplying plant nutrients and enhance soil physical environment. These manures containing organically bound macro and other micro-nutrients which influence plant growth and development, which further also play role in maintaining soil sustainability. The use of PGPR is steadily increased in agriculture and offers an attractive way to supplement and/or replace chemical inputs.
