The farmers are using local cultivators ie Jhain Mung which gives poor yield. Generally the farmers are not adopting any nutrient and biofertilizer application and YMV is the major reason for poor yield in this area. As the crop is grown in residual soil moisture, the crop faces water stress condition many times. One of the major constraints of poor yield and spread of green gram, is the non-availability of suitable high yielding variety to replace the traditional varieties.

The experiment was carried out in the department of soil science and agricultural chemistry, College of Agriculture, Rajendranagar, PJTSAU. The enzyme L-Glutaminase (L-glutamine amido hydrolase E.C. 3.5.1.2) cause the hydrolysis of L-glutamine to ammonia, L-glutamic acid, thus it makes the amide form of nitrogen available to the plants. We have detected this enzyme in soils.

Soil moisture availability to the crop is main problem of rainfed agriculture, thus use of soil moisture conservation practices have been proved useful to take the proper advantage of other inputs applied. Keeping these points in view the present study was undertaken to find out the significance of intercropping, increasing fertility levels and moisture conservation practices in rainfed pearlmillet crop under central Uttar Pradesh condition.

Dryland horticulture constitutes major part in horticulture crop production. Moisture stress is one of the major limiting factor in production of mango in dryland horticulture, since the rainfall is highly erratic and it is not possible to utilize available rainwater efficiently. Mango is one of the major crop grown in Ramanagara district covering an area of 22172 ha. Due to poor soil and water conservation practices in mango moisture retention is low in the soil that affects productivity.

The objectives of sowing operation are to put the seed along with fertilizer in rows at desired depth and seed to seed spacing, cover the seeds with soil and provide proper compaction over the seed. The machinery such as seed cum fertilizer drill with attachment of furrow irrigated raised bed (FIRB), broad bed furrow (BBF) and ridge & furrow systems are used to sow the seeds on raised beds in a pulverized soil so as to allow easy emergence of seed with proper moisture availability and better drainage during excess rainfall events.

Raising confined poultry generates waste that causes environmental problems, and that requires special handling in order to minimize these impacts. Poultry litter contains bird feces and feathers, spilled feed and the moisture-absorbing material used on the floor of the cages. This results in a residue with a high concentration of nutrients that may impact the soil due to the wide availability of poultry litter.

Groundnut is an important oil seed crop in India cultivated in an area of 6.7 million hectares with a production of 7.0 million tonnes annually. The crop can be grown successfully in areas receiving the rainfall ranging from 600 to 1250 mm. The best soils for groundnut crop are sandy loam, loam and medium black with good drainage system. Present practice of manual harvesting and threshing consumes huge amount of labour to a magnitude of about 175 to 200 women h ha-1The highest average effective field capacity obtained using tractor drawn groundnut digger shaker was 0.35 ha h-1 .

The water availability is limited, however demand of water is increasing many fold due to expansion of agriculture, growing population, rapid industrialization and economic development in India. Available water resources need to be managed properly to meet increasing demands of water. In this study, different hydrological processes as surface runoff, evapotranspiration and soil moisture were modeled to assess the groundwater recharge in a small watershed located in semi-arid region of Rajasthan, India.

A Dynamic Programing (DP) model is developed to allocate optimum supplemental irrigation to crop for receives maximum net annual return from the cropped area under land and water availability constraints in the OFR based rainfed agricultural system. The model integrates the dynamics associated with the water released by supplemental irrigation from the OFR to the actual water utilized by the crops at farm level.

A watershed is commonly defined as an area in which all water drains to a common point. From a hydrological perspective, a watershed is a useful unit of operation and analysis because it facilitates a systems approach to land and water use in interconnected upstream and downstream areas. Watershed projects aim to maximize the quantity of water available for crops, livestock and human consumption through on-site soil and moisture conservation, infiltration into aquifers, and safe runoff into surface ponds.

The experiment was conducted during summer season of 2016- 2017 at the field of Department Farm Structures, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola. The experimental site was fairly uniform and levelled. Hydroponic structure was designed for the cultivation of leafy vegetables by different hydroponic methods. The dimensions of portable hydroponic structure were 1375 mm high x 925 mm long and were made from locally available materials. The structure was made up of mild steel hollow pipes of size 25.4 mm which were bended and welded together to form a Quonset-type structure.

A study was conducted during kharif and summer seasons of 2013-14 and 2014-15 with twenty genotypes of green gram to study the growth parameters and seed yield of green gram genotypes with special reference to growing season. The mean monthly soil moisture content during crop growing season was 23.46 per cent for kharif season and 12.95 per cent for summer season. The soil was acidic with medium value of organic carbon, low in available N, P and K contents.

Soil moisture is one of the important factor of soil that directly regulate the growth and development of plants. To manage the water scarcity problem during rabi season in south Bihar, we have to know the available water condition to supply optimum water for the crops. The soil is sandy clay loam, slightly alkaline in reaction (pH 7.3). The experiment has split plot design having three fertigation levels of nitrogen (W1=25% N, W2=50% N, W3=75%N of RDF) in main plot and 4 cropping systems i.e. Ricewheat, Rice-barley, Rice-chickpea, Rice-lentil in sub plot.
