Salient Achievements (Technology Developed, Variety Released, Patents or Any other relevant information)

• Two farmers (Sri Mukesh Parcha, S-25, Alok Vihar Colony, Meerut& Sri Vinod Kumar, Gram-AzampurArnavali, and Meerut) adopted technology disseminated by Department of LPT on “Chicken Pickle” in the month of March, 2020. 
• Technology developed for utilization of rumen digesta waste from slaughter house as an alternative local feed source for economical ration production and controlling environmental pollution under DST funded project in the Department of Animal Nutrition. 
• In the externally funded project entitled Assessment of POLY-4 (Polyhalite) for productivity, quality of potato and K, S use efficiency in soils of western plain zone of Uttar Pradesh three year observations revealed that the Polyhalite, a multinutrients natural mineral may be a better source of potassium for potato. It also supplements the calcium magnesium and sulphur. It has a substantial residual effect on soil fertility.
• Study on effect of PSB inoculation with and without P and S application on physico-chemical properties of soil, nodulation, nutrients uptake and productivity of mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) in Western U.P revealed that the balanced and combined use of P and S along with PSB in mungbean improved the growth attributes, total uptake of nutrients along with maintaining the soil fertility balance.
• In the study effect of effect of Rhizobium and PSB inoculation on nodulation, yield and uptake of N and P by chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in Inceptisols of Meerut it may be concluded that the balanced and combined use of N and P along with Rhizobium and PSB in chickpea improved the growth attributes, total uptake of nutrients along with maintaining the soil fertility balance. The application of DAP with Rhizobium and PSB inoculation (Rhizobium + PSB+ DAP) gave best results and proved to be beneficial for Kabuli chickpea.
• Study on effect of mode of micronutrients application on micronutrient availability, growth, yield and chemical composition of pigeonpea the soil application of ZnSO4+ FeSO4+ Borax proved to be better for maintaining the micronutrient status of soil and crop yield. Therefore, the combined application of various micronutrients should be taken into consideration.
• In the study on qualitative study of soil and water of ganga canal command area on west side (right side) from Purkaji to Muradnagar different parameters of water quality were assessed and on the basis of measured values of quality parameters water was found safe for agricultural uses.
• In the study on effect of zincobensulf application on zinc, sulphur availability in soil and growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) it was concluded that the application of only NPK fertilizer is not capable of exploiting the full potential of wheat, therefore nutrients like S and Zn are essential to get higher production. Thus the combination of RDF+ zincobensulf @ 45 kg /ha seems to be more economic and promising for boosting the productivity of wheat. Besides it also improve the quality of soil in terms of available nutrients.
• In the study of physico-chemical properties of soil under different rice based cropping system in light textured soil it was concluded that the Rice-pulse-pulse cropping system may be adopted for getting more system land use efficiency (%), system productivity (kg/ha/day) and rice equivalent yield (q/ha). To sustain the soil health rice-pulses-pulses cropping system may be economically better but continuous growing of rice-pulses-pulses cropping system may have disadvantage on soil health. Due to legumes are able to solubilise soil phosphate through root exudates. Roots of most legumes release carboxylic acids that solubilise phosphate ions from bound form such as calcium and iron phosphate because of this availability of P, Fe may increase in soil up to a toxic range. Therefore inclusion of rice- wheat/oilseed – pulses cropping system in between 2 years of rice-pulses – pulses cropping system would be better for soil health and farmers economy.
• In the study on effect of tillage practices and fertilizer management on nutrient dynamics in wheat under rice –wheat cropping system it was found that significantly better growth parameters and yield was obtained under no tillage condition and Conventional tillage condition. Nitrogen, phosphorus and Potassium content and uptake were recorded highest in no tillage and better physical properties of soil than rest of the tillage systems. Among fertility levels application of 100% RDF+ VC (5 t ha-1) performed better in relation to growth, yield, nutrient content and uptake than the rest of the fertility levels.
• In the study on effect of organic nutrient sources on soil health and productivity of wheat under rice-wheat system it was found that the application of 80 % of RDF of nitrogen through vermicompost + 10% through neem cake+ Azotobacter in wheat and will be most beneficial to the farmers.
• Crop receiving FYM @5t/ha + Urea 20kg at 40DAS+ NPK-G 200 kg/ha + NPK-P 1% foliar spray at 55&70 DAS+ NPK-biofertilizer + Sagarika-L foliar spray at 55 &70 DAS gave highest grain yield of wheat crop being 29% higher over the recommended dose of NPK.
• The wheat crop fertilized according to targated yield (4.0 t ha-1) with 100% inorganic gave lowest of the yields, whereas, one applied with constituents of customized fertilizer on soil test value with 75% inorganic + 25 % N FYM had the highest grain yield closely followed by one with application of constituents of customized fertilizer on soil test value with 75% inorganic + 25% N FYM + Azotobactor + PSB.The straw yield was highest in crop given constituents of customized fertilizer on soil test value with 75% inorganic + 25% N FYM. Grain yield ranged from 4.61 to 5.29 t/ha while the straw yield varied from 5.11 to 6.92 t/ha.
• In moong crop spray of urea, bio-stimulant, iron, NPK and NPK + bio-stimulant increased grain yield over their respective control being non-significant. However, cumulative effect accounted to their combined use i.e. application of NPK-200 kg ha-1 + FYM-10 t ha-1 along with Rhizobium inoculation of mung bean and foliar spray of urea, Bio-stimulant and FeSO4 led to significant increase of 13 q ha-1 (165.3%) over control and (85.7%) over farmers practice.
• In moong maximum net returns (Rs. 44104) were fetched in with application of higher doses of fertiliser viz., NPK-200 kg ha-1 along with incorporation of FYM-10 t ha-1 + Rhizobiuminoculation and foliar application of urea + Bio-stimulant + FeSO4 followed by application of FYM -10 t ha-1 + DAP-100 kg ha-1 + dual inoculation with Rhizobium & PSB and foliar spray of urea + Bio-stimulant + FeSO4 (Rs. 37645)  while minimum net returns were obtained in control plot (Rs. 10455).
• Transplanted rice on wide raised beds (WB – TPR) under planting system and RDF + FYM + BF + Zn under fertility levels exhibited significant influence on the growth, yield attributes and yields of rice as compared to control treatment.
• In rice crop the gross return, net return and B: C ratio was obtained maximum with the transplanted rice on wide raised beds (WB – TPR) among planting system and RDF + FYM + BF + Zn under fertility levels.
• In puddled transplanted rice yield attributes and yield were significantly increased due to an application of  NPK + 25% FYM (25% N) + 25% N at PI stage  or , 75% NPK + 25% FYM (25% N) + 25% FYM (25% N) + 25% N at PI stage over control.
• In barley crop gross return, net return, B: C ratio and yield were found higher in 75% N-PK + 25% N through vermicompost. Thus 75% N-PK + 25% N through vermicompost with Trisulfuron 15g a.i ha-1 recommended for weed control and higher productivity in sandy loam soil.
• With the application of 50% N as basal through VC+FYM (1:1), + 25% at tillering + 20% at booting stage and 5% N as foliar spray at pre flowering urea as sub-plots resulted significantly higher entire growth parameters, yield attributes, yield (grain and straw), harvest index and B: C ratio in late sown wheat.
• The application of RDF + FYM + BF + Zn  in rice with transplanted rice planting system on wide raised beds (WB – TPR) was most beneficial to the farmers, whereas conventional method (CT-TPR) planting system is next in order.
• The application of NPK + 25% FYM (25% N) + 25% N at PI Stage with transplanted rice planting system on wide raised beds (WB – TPR) was  found most beneficial to the farmers, whereas conventional method (CT-TPR) planting system is next in order.
• 75% NPK + 25% N through vermicompost, Thus 75% NPK + 25% N through vermicompost with Trisulfuron 15g a.i ha-1 were recommended for better weed control and higher barley yield.
• Among the moisture conservation practices, the highest grain straw and biological yield of rice was obtained with application of crop residues @ 5 t/ha followed by PUSA hydrogel @ 7.5 kg/ha and seed treated with Tricoderma (IRRI1) showed 11.1 and 9.2 % higher grain and straw yield over control (M1).
• The mass media play a vital role in the transfer of technology as well as awareness and adoption of technology among the rural people for enhancing the farmer's income in the university administrative control area.
• It was observed that majority (100) percent of respondents were using mobiles phones as well as computer based technology, television 95.83 percent, agricultural fairs 95.80 percent, newspaper 94.05 percent, exhibitions 91.89, animal health camps 91.20 and district level gosthies 86.28 percent. These mass media channels were very highly effective in present time for technology transfer and awareness in university administrative control area due to how economical status of the farmers.
• Production technology of shiitake, Lion’s Mane and Kira- jari mushroom has been developed for the western UP.
• Introduction of bio-agent (Trichoderma) as seed or soil application is effective against this nematode. Farmers may apply Trichoderma for the management of this nematode as seed or soil treatment.
• Rice varieties Pusa -1121-Pusa-1509, Sugandha-5and CSR-30 are more susceptible to this nematode. Therefore whenever farmers are growing this variety proper care should be taken to protect the crop from this nematode particularly in nursery.
• Integrated management (application of Trichoderma + neem cake+ compost) of this nematode in rice nursery will be more effective for the management of this nematode.
