Pulses occupy unique place in Indian diet with supplying of vegetable protein to primarily starchy diet and provide an essential supplement for balance diet. Therefore, it is essential to increase the sustainable productivity with more appropriate management of nutrient utilization of plants so that with same area, we can increase pulses sustainable production.

Growing inclination towards Zero Budget Natural farming (ZBNF) in India to reduce expenditure on external input and to reduce indebtness of farmers, a study was under taken on evaluation of Jeevamrut, prepared by mixing cow dung, cow urine, pulse flour, jaggery and soil, and its constituents for management of Alternaria leaf spot caused by Alternaria alternata in organic mungbean under cage house condition as well as against the pathogen in-vitro, as the disease is quite destructive in all mungbean growing areas of southern Rajasthan.

Pulses being rich in quality protein, minerals and vitamins are inseparable ingredients of diet of majority of Indian population. Despite of their high nutritive value and important role in sustainable agriculture desired growth rate in production could not be witnessed. The domestic production of pulses is consistently below the targets and actual domestic requirements are also higher, due to this pulses are being imported.

The injudicious and indiscriminate application of pesticides to crops results in pesticide residues in food and food commodities with consequential hazards. The extent of hazard depends on the number of pesticide residues on crops and their toxicity. The main objective of this study was focused on determining the likely presence of pesticide residues in cereals and pulse samples in Sikrai Tehsil Dausa district, Rajasthan. The study was carried out for the year 2017 and 2018. 150 samples were taken from different farms and market analyzed using GC-MS/MS& LC-MS/MS.

Blackgram is a major kharif pulse crop in Kota district of Rajasthan, which covers more than 25 percent acreage of kharif sown area of the district. However, average yield of the district varying between 5-7.25 q ha-1 which can be enhanced up to 10 q ha-1 or more by the adoption of new varieties and recommended agro-techniques. To demonstrate improved production technologies, cluster front-line demonstrations were conducted on blackgram crop by Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Kota, during kharif 2016 to 2018 on 260 farmer fields of the district.

In view of the importance of pulses in Indian dietary system and agriculture sector in state economy several attempts have been made to study the trends in area and production of pulses crops which reveal the growth performance. The secondary data were collected for area and production of pulses for the period of 1979–80 to 2011-12. The study period was classified as Pre WTO (World Trade Organization) era and Post WTO era. For the estimation of the trends in area and production and to measure the association in productivity we use Mann-Kendall test.

Mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) also known as green gram, is an important pulse crop providing vegetable protein for people throughout the world. It is being suffered by several fungal, bacterial and viral diseases but dry root rot of mungbean incited by Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid. is the most common problem in mungbean growing areas of Rajasthan (India). The total sugar, reducing sugar, non reducing sugar and soluble protein were higher in healthy roots as compared to diseased roots in all the tested varieties i.e., SML-668, MH-2-15 and IPM-02-03.
