Ebook "Biofortification of food crops" highlights the role of multidisciplinary approaches to cope up with the challenges of micronutrient malnutrition or hidden hunger which is an alarming public health issue in most parts of the world including India. In this endeavour, different biofortification approaches such as agronomic (or ferti-fortification), breeding, biotechnological, physiological, microbial etc. has fulfilled their different mandates of nutrient enrichment of food crops including cereals and pulses.

The experiment was done during kharif season 2016 at farmer field in Bhadohi district near Varanasi to ascertain the validity of developed fertilizer adjustment equations based on Soil Test Crop Response for targeted yield of this crop. These equations were compared with other fertilizer use practices such as farmer’s practice and general recommendation. Fertilizer doses for different crop under STCR based fertilizers application treatment were calculated using fertilizer adjustment equations for targeted yield of different crops. The percent increase in yield ware 17.11 and 37.

Nutritional knowledge for maintaining good health is necessarily required for the upliftment of country. Food products including cereal, pulses, fruits, vegetables, milk etc. contains high amount of protein, vitamins, minerals, calcium, carbohydrates, calories, dietary fibre and fats and have numerous therapeutic benefits. Due to their health beneficial properties they were incorporated with other ingredients or treated with processing technologies and turned into a new product and projected for estimation of moisture, protein, fat, carbohydrate, calcium and iron.

Mycorrhizae is a symbiotic mutualistic relationship between special soil fungi and fine plant roots. Interaction of Mycorrhiza with plants, fungi and environment is obligatory and somewhat complex. Mycorrhiza fungi offer substantial benefits to associated plants like increase in mineral nutrient uptake, protection against soil borne pathogens, damage compensation etc (Ranganathswamy et al., 2019).

Nitrogen and Phosphorus are the two most essential nutrients in popcorn. Others nutrients that are limiting in soil and require fertilization for popcorn are K, S, Zn, Fe, etc. To produce one tone of grain and dry matter, maize crop withdraws 8.0 kg of N, 2.5 kg of P2O5 and 18 kg of K2O from the soil.

Wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporium f. spciceris is a devastating disease of chickpea. It occurs in 2 stages; seedling stage (0-30%) and reproductive stage (0-57%). Annual chickpea yield loss due to Fusarium wilt was estimated to be 10% in India. So, our objective is to control chickpea wilt disease by using Trichoderma based biofilms as an alternative to chemical fungicides. Trichoderma viride is a potential antagonistic fungi which prevents diseases like wilt, brown rot, damping off, charcoal rot etc.

A field experiment was carried out on Influence of FYM, Inorganic Fertilizers and Micronutrients on soil nutrient status and plant nutrient contents and their uptake by African marigold. The experiment was laid out in factorial randomized block design with three replications consisting three level of FYM (0, 20 and 30 t/ha), four levels of NPK (RDF @ 75, 100 and 125%) and four levels of micronutrients (Control, ZnSO4 @ 0.50%, FeSO4 @ 0.50% and ZnSO4 0.50% + FeSO4 0.50%) thus, making 48 treatment combinations.

Nitrogen is the key nutrient factor that influences soil fertility and productivity. It is the mineral nutrient that exists in different forms, but nitrate form is the most preferred form by plants. Irrespective of the form in which N is applied to soil, it undergoes transformation viz. mineralization (ammonification, nitrification), denitrification etc. by enzymes produced by micro organisms.

Plant nutrition plays a major role in quantitative and qualitative crop production in bringing sustainability and plants require seventeen essential elements for their normal growth and development. Among these, those elements required smaller in quantity is called micronutrients (Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn, B, Cl, Mo and Ni). Micronutrients are essentially as important as macronutrients to have better growth, yield and quality in plants.

Mycorrhiza has drawn substantial attention because of their role in ecosystem restoration and in alleviating the adverse environmental conditions for plant growth. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are obligate mutualist biotrophs of more than 80% terrestrial plants including mulberry. Mulberry plants are generally raised in nutritionally poor soils, so AMF have notable role in their survival and establishment, provided appropriate AMF inocula conducive to the prevailing edapho-agroclimatic conditions are used.

Taxonomical Classification, Characterization and Mapping of BSP Farm (Khanapur Block-B) for Rational Land Use Planning, MKV, Parbhani was carried out during the year 2012. The total gross area of college farm is spread over 135.49 ha and it is divided into four blocks viz. Block A, B, C and D. These four blocks were surveyed by traversing along the bunds of farm plots and the data on natural resources were collected. From these 110 soil samples were drawn to study the properties and nutrient status.

Fly ash has tremendous potential as a nutrient supplement and plays a favourable role in increasing growth performance. Fly ash constitutes above 70% of the whole amount of residues formed in power plants through combustion of coal. The addition of Fly ash in soil improves or changes various physical, chemical and biological characteristics of soil. Fly ash is used for the improvement of the soil texture, water holding capability, density, bulk density, porosity etc. by using in different ratio with soil. For the growth of plant and crop yield fly ash is used as ameliorate in acidic soils.

Both biotic and abiotic stresses are major constrains to agricultural production. Under stress conditions, plant growth is affected by a number of factors such as hormonal and nutritional imbalance, ion toxicity, physiological disorders, susceptibility to diseases, etc. Plant growth under stress conditions may be enhanced by the application of microbial inoculation including plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR).
