Pit compost

The changes in temperature, microbial population dynamics and other factors were studied during the process of composting by layering residues of Calotropis procera, Prosopis juliflora, Azadirachta indica, Acacia nilotica and weeds in separate pits. Temperature began to rise soon after filling the residues and ranged between 55–59 °C for next 6 to 7 days with maximum being in Calotropis pit (59.2 °C).

A study on the manurial quality of enriched organics was conducted in the research farm of CSKHPKV, Palampur (Himachal Pradesh) falling under wet temperate mid hill climatic condition for two years. Two organics namely farmyard manure and compost (prepared from locally available plant biomass comprising of clippings of Lantana camara and Eupatorium spp) were enriched with indigenous Jhamarkotra Phosphate Rock (JPR-A) containing 8.1% P in the clay lined pits of 1 m3 size.

Communication is essential for all human relations. Mass media thought to have powerful, uniform and direct influence on individual. Multimedia application can present information in variety of forms (text, graphics, animation, audio, video) involving the use of more of our senses. It better explain a subject matter to the learner because it enhances the comprehension capability of the learner. The present study was planned to develop multimedia CD on Compost Pit and field-test for perception and comprehension by rural women. The study was conducted in two phases.

The present study was conducted at Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Chitrakoot in earthen pond having the area of 0.017 to 0.041 ha for 120 days to study the effect of different organic manure on water quality and growth performance Labeo rohita. The compost comprises as vermicompost, Pit compost and raw cattle dung that is compared with control having no manure application. All the compost was used at fixed dose @ 5000 Kg/ ha in 24 split doses at 15 days interval and 5000 kg/ha compost applied at 15 days prior to stocking of fish seed for pond preparation.
