Background: At present there are 731 out of which 66 under ICAR
Institute the major mandatory activity of KVKs are OFTs, FLDs and trainings
soil testing laboratory is neglected due to unavailability of any funds from
any sources myself taken soil samples from farmers fields from 2009-2022
maximum samples were analysed by me in my laboratory at sultanpur. Green gram is one of the important crops among the pulses. Kharif green
gram proved to be an effective crop are the restorer of soil fertility as
fixing atmospheric nitrogen in the soil, cover crops, reduces soil erosion by
winds in summer and by water in rainy season, used as green manure crops in
rice-wheat cropping systems providing additional income to the farmers, provide
dietary proteins to the large vegetarian population of the country and its
works as catch crop and fits in Paddy-Wheat crop rotation in Sultanpur region
of India. This crop holds the key to increase the income of the farmers and to
achieve self-sufficiency in pulse production.
Physically soil texture is clay loam to sandy loam soil fertility status
regarding major and micronutrients very low to high in the Sandila and in case
of biological properties excellent to very poor population of earthworms and
fungi were recorded due to energy source in soil is organic carbon and
salinity. Soil colour varried from white to grey measured by Munsell colour
soil chart. Soil health cards regarding information given among farmers among
farmers on the occassion of World Soil Day 5 th December.
Methods: A total 25 trials on green gram (IPM 02-03) were carried out by scientist
at farmers field in 5 ha area during kharif season 2016-17 to 2019-20 to
study was on performance of green gram in sultanpur district Prevailing
farmer's practices were treated as control for comparison with demonstrated
technology.
