The effect of a aqueous extract of the ischolar_mains of Momordica cymbalaria Fenzl., (Cucurbitaceae) was evaluated with streptozotocin(65 mg/kg, i.p.) induced diabetic rats. Seventy-two hours after streptozotocin injection, the extract, at doses of 250 and 500 mg/kg, was administered orally for 30 consecutive days. Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and In-vitro peripheral glucose uptake studies were also measured during this course of experiment. The extract was found to be potent antidiabetic as evidenced by significant (p < 0.001) reduction of serum glucose level of diabetic rats on 30th day by both the doses (maximal effect of 45.95% reduction of serum glucose level, at 500 mg/kg, p < 0.001). Results demonstrated a significant reduction of serum lipids (maximal effect of 50.23 and 31.89% reduction of cholesterol and triglyceride, respectively, at 500 mg/kg, p < 0.001) and elevation of liver glycogen level (maximal effect at 300 mg/kg, p < 0.05) in diabetic rats, comparable to that of standard antidiabetic glibenclamide at 500 μg/kg, p.o. In OGTT, the extract at different doses showed significant reduction in serum glucose level (p < 0.05) from 30 min. onwards. The extract also revealed increase in In-vitro model for peripheral glucose uptake (not statistically significant). Improvement of body weight profile was also observed in extract-treated diabetic rats.Keywords

On farm trial was conducted on 20 lactating crossbred cows were randomly divided into two groups on the basis of milk yield (10 to 13 kg/day) and day of calving less than 60 days to see the effect of supplement bypass fat on milk yield and fat percentage for continuous three year (2012 to 2015). Cross bred cows were fed concentrate, green and dry fodder and wheat straw in control groups and addition of 100 grams of bypass fat was given in treatment group. Experimental feeding was continued up to 90 days. The average milk production and fat percentage was significantly higher in treatment group. Milk production efficiency was also significantly higher in bypass fat supplemented in comparison to control group. It was concluded that bypass fat supplementation @ 100 g per day per animal in cows significantly increase the milk production and fat percentage over the control group.Keywords

A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of phosphorus, sulphur and phosphate solubilizing bacteria on growth and nutrient uptake by mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern and Cosson.] grown in loamy sand soil. The experimental soil has pH 7.60 and was deficient in available sulphur and nitrogen and medium in available phosphorus. The experiment was tested by Randomized Block Design with four replications. The treatments comprised of three levels each of phosphorus (0, 25, 50 kg P2O5 ha-1) and sulphur (0, 20, 40 kg S ha-1) and two levels of phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) inoculation (no inoculation and inoculation with Aspergillus niger strain-1). The results of the experiment revealed that each successive increase in level of phosphorus significantly increased the crop growth and uptake of nutrients. Different levels of sulphur significantly improved the growth, yield as well as uptake of nutrients by seeds and straw of mustard. Seed inoculation with PSB (I1) significantly increased yield, uptake in seed and straw and availability of nutrients in soil. Combined effect of 50 kg P2O5 ha-1 and 40 kg S ha-1 with seed inoculation with PSB gave higher seed and straw yield as well as nutrient content in seed and straw which resulted in higher nutrient uptake by mustard grown in loamy sand of North Gujarat.Keywords

Front line demonstration was conducted on 180 lactating buffaloes, were randomly divided into two groups on the basis of milk yield (7 to 8 kg/day) and day of calving less than 60 days to see the effect of feeding urea treated wheat straw on milk production for continuous three years (2012-2013, 2013-2014, 2014-2015). Buffaloes were fed concentrate, green and dry fodder and un treated wheat straw in control groups and concentrate, green and dry fodder and urea treated wheat straw was given in treatment group. Experimental feeding was continued upto 90 days. The average milk production was significantly higher in treatment group. It was concluded that animals fed with urea treated wheat straw significantly increase the milk production over the control group.Keywords

A field experiment was conducted at Cotton Research Sub-Station, S. D. Agricultural University, Khedbhrahma (Gujarat) in randomized block design (factorial) during the kharif season of 2005-06. Three levels each of N (160, 200 and 240 kg ha-1), P2O5 (0, 20 and 40 kg ha-1) and K2O (0, 40 and 80 kg ha-1) were tried. Total 27 treatment combinations were replicated three times. The results indicated that Bt cotton crop fertilizing at 240 kg N ha-1 significantly increased yield attributes viz., plant height, sympodial branches per plant, No. of bolls per plant, No. of seeds per boll and boll weight as well as seed cotton yield, quality and nutrient uptake. Fertilizing Bt cotton at 40 kg P2O5 kg ha-1 numerically increased yield attributes and seed cotton yield of 2427 kg ha-1 which was at par with 20 kg P2O5 ha-1. An application of 80 kg K2O ha-1 significantly increased yield attributes viz., plan height, sympodial branches per plant, number of bolls per plant, boll weight and seed cotton and stalk yield. However, this level was at par with 40 kg K2O ha-1 in yield attributes, seed cotton and stalk yield. Application of 80 kg K2O ha-1 removed higher N (53.48 kg ha-1) and K (50.46 kg ha-1) which was statistically at par with 40 kg K2O ha-1. Among all treatment combination numerically highest seed cotton yield (2641 kg ha-1) and maximum net realization of Rs. 38704 ha-1 was recorded under treatment 240 kg N ha-1 + 20 kg P2O5 kg ha-1 + 40 kg K2O ha-1 (N3P1K1). Thus, the results of present study indicated that potential production and profit from Bt cotton crop can be secured by fertilizing the crop with 240 kg N ha-1, 20 kg P2O5 kg ha-1, and 40 kg K2O ha-1 under irrigated condition.Keywords
