A field experiment was conducted at the research farm of Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi during 3 wet and dry seasons of 2003-06 in rice-wheat cropping system. In this experiment different
In the present investigation, impact of different tillage options on wheat yield has been evaluated for various locations of IGP region. In general, more increase in wheat yield was observed was observed
Accurate and realistic estimates of carbon stock on trees are essentially required for determining their role in mitigating global warming and climate change in present scenario of enhanced atmospheric
A field experiment was conducted during 2004-2006 taking greengram-mustard-cowpea crop sequence with greengram cv. 'SML 668' in kharif, mustard cv. 'Pusa Jaikisan' in rabi and cowpea cv. 'Pusa Komal' in
Water is a prime natural resource, a basic human need and precious natural asset. Surface runoff is the major source for all the major source for all the surface water bodies such as tanks and reservoirs.
A laboratory investigation was conducted to evaluate Campbell soil water retention model parameters, viz., pore size distribution index, notional air entry potential and saturation moisture and to develop
Direct measurement of soil erodibility, resistance offered by the soil to both detachment and transport processes, is not only costly but time consuming also. So, efforts have been made to predict it from
In engineering practice, simple methods are important for predicting runoff from watersheds particularly for flood forecasting and water balance calculations. In the present study, it is illustrated that
Out of the total geographical area of India about 53% suffers from different kinds of land degradation, and Uttar Pradesh accounts for 9.06%. About 4.0 m ha (11.03%) area of the country is suffering from
A pilot study was conducted to analyze the potential site suitability for constructing the groundwater recharge structures in Manesar Nala watershed, Gurgaon, Haryana using space technology integrated
