The water and forest management in hills welbeing is prime need of the hilly areas for sustainable lively hood of the residents. The well developed and managed water and forest in hills is directly related to the socio-personal development of the village women. Hence, the present study was conducted in Nainital district of Uttarakhand to study the socio-personal and psychological economical profile of women in the study area and their role in the management of water and forest. The study results revealed that the majority of the respondents were middle to old aged, general cast, joint family, had medium family size, primary to middle level of formal education, engaged in 2-3 occupations, above poverty line, rearing milk and meat livestocks. Half of the respondents (50 per cent) had ‘high’ level of fatalism whereas 37.33 per cent had ‘medium’ level of fatalism. The respondents had medium participation in water and high participation in forest management activities. With water management activities, age and occupation while with forest management activities, occupation had significant positive correlation.

An attempt has been made to document the traditional practices followed by women of lesser Himalayan region for the management of water and forest. The area selected for the study was Oakhalkanda and Dhari blocks of district Nainital, Uttarakhand. A sample of 150 respondents from eight villages was interviewed regarding their folk beliefs and traditional practices followed for water and forest conservation. It was observed that the women in the region managed the water and forest resources through folk beliefs like Ganga Dusshera, Basant Panchmi, Kumbh Vivah, Naula Pujan, and throwing coin in river for water management and Sacred groves, Bat savitri, Tulsi pooja, Harela, Cheer bandhana, Phool dei, Mango leaves, Khatarua Sawan ke somvar, and Lut for forest management. Also they had ancient views on water and forest management. The traditional practices like devoting forest to the Gods and Godesses, ceremonies like Maiti movement, Vriksha Abhishek Divas, and Tiladi Divas were prevalent in the area and found to be very effective in conserving forest. The ancient knowledge seems to be the excellent and most effective way in protecting water and forest in lesser Himalayan region.References

The present investigation was undertaken during rabi 2017 at Experimental Farm of the Department of Organic Agriculture and Natural Farming on the fourteen germplasm lines of chickpea to estimate the associations among various traits including their direct and indirect effects on seed yield and to identify potential genotypes under low input conditions. Correlation studies revealed that secondary branches per plant, pods per plant, nodule number, nodule fresh weight, nodule dry weight, biological yield per plant and harvest index were positively correlated with seed yield per plant at genotypic and phenotypic level whereas days to 50 per cent flowering and nitrogen fixation positively correlated with yield only at genotypic level. Secondary branches per plant, harvest index, nodule dry weight, nodule number, seeds per pod, biological yield per plant and pods per plant exhibited high direct effect implying that these traits can act as selection indices for seed yield. Among the different genotypes, best genotypes for seed yield were 18-II, 113-P, P-30-6 and DKG-964 under low input conditions.Keywords

Buckwheat is very unusual and unique multipurpose crop of mountain regions above 1800 m elevation both for grains and greens. It is very hardy crop and yields greater on stony, unproductive soil under cool climatic conditions than most of other staple crops. Buckwheat owes its importance due to presence of excellent nutrition profile with a high protein content. Buckwheat does not contain gluten, so for the people with celiac disease or gluten intolerances, buckwheat serves as an excellent dietary alternative. Although it has a great relevance in agriculture still the resources available with this crop are very limited therefore it is also known as underutilized crop. It is used as a cereal though does not resemble the cereals in growth habit, seed quality or seed composition hence it is classified as a pseudocereal. It also has many desirable health components which make it a valuable part of the human diet. Buckwheat has a unique growth habit as compared to the cereals and thus fits into a much different area of crop production due to its rapid growth and flowering habit. Buckwheat as underutilized crop is very useful as it has short growing period, hence can be used for diversifying cropping systems and enhancing human nutrition value besides contributing to the rural economy. Buckwheat population in the Himalayan region is unique, so if the farmers discontinue cultivation, there may be huge loss of the peculiar genetic resources. Thus, on-farm conservation of buckwheat germplasm is an important strategic component of crop improvement and biodiversity conservation.Keywords

A field experiment was conducted in randomized block design (RBD) during Kharif season 2018-2019 to evaluate the effect of inorganic, organic and Zero Budget Natural Farming (ZBNF) on fifteen selected genotypes of adzuki bean for growth parameters. Significant differences in the plant height, number of branches, pods per plant, seeds per pod and seed yield were obtained in genotypes as well as different production systems (inorganic, organic and Zero Budget Natural Farming), whereas no significant difference were obtained in pod length. Simultaneously interaction effect was significant for plant height and seed yield whereas, there were no significant interaction obtained for number of branches per plant, number of pods, seeds per pod and pod length. The overall finding of this study indicated that Zero Budget Natural Farming production system can be used to achieve better growth and yield of adzuki bean.Keywords

Protected cultivation of vegetable crops was given a high priority and developed very rapidly during the past 15 years in India. Initially, vegetable cultivars commonly used for open field production were also started to grown under protected conditions. Despite various measures, many problems arose due to unfavorable ecological conditions in protected environments. Since the late 1980’s and early 1990’s, breeding of vegetable cultivars for protected conditions has been carried out by taking advantages of both conventional methods and biotechnological tools. One of the main research efforts include screening and evaluation of breeding materials for tolerance to various biotic and abiotic stresses. Another effort focused on the creation and development of new breeding materials (variety, cultivar or breeding line) for protected conditions by selection, introduction, crossing and biotechnological methods, including isolating from popular F genotypes, wide crosses, tissue and 1 cell culture, protoplast regeneration, gene transfer techniques, molecular marker assisted breeding and many other approaches. As most hydroponic cultivation and grafting tools are carried out inside the protected conditions, more cultivars adapted to this type of culture are also urgently needed.Keywords

GA and NAA affect various aspects of plant physiology, mainly vegetative, flowering and quality attributes 3 including yield. A field experiment was carried out during 2020-21 at vegetable farm of CSKHPKV, Palampur, Himachal Pradesh to evaluate the effects of foliar-applied plant growth regulators gibberellic acid (GA ) and 3 Naphthalene Acidic Acid (NAA) on tomato hybrid Palam Tomato Hybrid-1. Significant impact of GA and 3 NAA at different concentrations was observed on yield and quality parameters of tomato. Among the different treatments plant growth regulators GA @75 ppm resulted maximum number of fruits per plant, fruit weight 3 and marketable yield per plant, marketable yield per m2 area, ascorbic acid content plant height and minimum number of days to 50 % flowering.Keywords
