The cultivated peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an important oil and food crop in the world. Pod- and kernel-related traits are direct factors involved in determining the yield of the peanut. However, the genetic basis underlying pod- and kernel-related traits in the peanut remained largely unknown, which hampered the improvement of peanut through marker-assisted selection.

The project was taken to find out the designing parameters of the planter and the machine component for small power engine. In designing, engineering parameters like draft of the planter, working width, seed box capacity, number of furrow openers, power requirement and the engineering views were drawn. Based on the designing parameter and CAD component of the planter it is possible to develop the planter for the sowing of crops. The objective of the research papers is to design inclined plate planter and to draw the various engineering drawing views of the inclined plate planter.

Physical properties of grains plays play important role in the design of seed hopper, conveyers and seed metering device. The physical properties of pigeon pea grains at different range of moisture content from 10.3 to 20.3 d.b. were investigated. The pigeon pea grains dimensions such as length, width thickness and diameter increase linearly with increase moisture content.

Some physical and mechanical properties of fenugreek seeds and plant were evaluated. The average length, width, thickness and geometric mean diameter of fenugreek seed were 3.47 mm, 2.53 mm, 1.61mm and 2.41 mm, respectively. The observed mean value of fenugreek plant for length, width and stalk diameter was 593.12 mm, 118.16 mm and 2.48 mm, respectively.

Bhoramdev seed drill is the most commonly used farm tool in Chhattisgarh. Never the less, using this plough as farm tool is labour intensive, time taking, making shallow depth and narrow cutting width. Thus, this research is initiated to come up with a solution to the aforementioned problems. Therefore, the objectives of this research were to model the basic components of animal drawn modified bhoramdev seed drill, to fabricate and test the prototype.

The efficiency of a breeding programme depends mainly on the direction and magnitude of the association between yield and its components and also the relative importance of each factor involved in contributing to grain yield. The path analysis provides an effective measure of direct and indirect causes of association and depicts the relative importance of each factor involved in contributing to the final product.

Geographically and phenotypically diverse 860 G. hirsutum germplasm lines were evaluated under North Zone irrigated conditions of India during 2011-12 and 2012-13 for a different flower retention period, seed cotton yield and other desirable traits. The accessions initiate flowering at 60 days were having maturity period below 150 days, horizontal width less than 40 cm, hence showed suitability for high density cropping system (HDPS) for productivity enhancement. The accessions which flowers at 80 days are found to be semi spreading in nature.
