In Alstroemeria growing regions of Himachal, Ooty and Jammu and Kashmir propagation through rhizome division is still the main method of multiplication. Alstroemeria remains vegetative if divided every 12 weeks. This opens up the possibility of exploring propagation potential of Alstroemeria rhizomes over the seasons (7).

The present study on out planting performance of Ocimum basilicum in field plantation was undertaken to optimize the spacing required for achieving maximum yield and essential oil. Seeds collected locally were sown in a broadcast manner and transplanted later at seedling stage at different spacing viz., S1 (10 cm × 10 cm), S2 (10 cm × 20 cm), S3 (10 cm × 30 cm) and S4 (10 cm × 40 cm). Seeds were sown in well prepared nursery beds in March, 2018.

Nine typical pedons from Langate Block of Kupwara district during 2017 were selected and surveyed for the purpose of collection of soil samples. The soil samples processed and analyzed for different nutrients. Available Micro and Macro nutrients were determined using standard techniques. The overall results showed that the soils are near slightly acidic to moderate alkaline in reaction, low to medium in organic carbon. In general the soils The available nutrients Nitrogen and Potassium were low to medium with the mean values of 287.99 and 149.

Zinniae is an important flower specie cultivated in India as well as in Kashmir valley. An unusual disease outbreak was observed in the nursery beds of Zinniae elegans. During ascertaining the cause of the disease a new pathogen Alternaria zinniae not previously reported from this region was found infecting the plants causing moderate to heavy blight. During the study Alternaria zinniae infecting Zinniae sp. was reported first time in the valley of Kashmir.
