Water - a critical input for sustained crop production - is becoming limiting both under rainfed and irrigated condition. It calls for an effective on-farm management of water in field crops through microirrigation (drip-fertigation) that could take care of both drainage during rainy months and supplementary life saving irrigation thereafter. Therefore, the present field study involving three planting configurations and five drip-fertigation schedules were taken up in pigeonpea (long duration) during 2010-12 under Eastern Indo-Gangetic Plains at Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, India. Significant grain yield advantage (19.6%) was with single drip-fertigation with half of N + K fertilizer at branching over farmers' practice (rainfed pigeonpea, 2858 kg/ha). Drip-fertigation at both branch and pod development also out-yielded (3468 kg/ha) over improved practice (furrow irrigation, 3262 kg/ha). These yield levels realized were close to potential yield (2.5-3.0 t/ha). Twice drip-fertigated plots also had higher yield attributes (pods/plant, 100 seed weight and harvest index), lower water use, greater soil profile water content and water use efficiency (65.1 kg/ha cm), higher plant nutrient (N, P and K) uptake with improved soil nutrient availability and greater net return (INR 9650/ha) over farmers' practice. A case study on a micro-scale was also given which could explore the possibility of out-scaling the technology.Keywords

This paper examines the impact of globalisation on social security of the retired army Personnel below Officer Rank (PBOR) with special reference to Southern Command, Pune. The resettlement training programmes for army PBOR is a social security indicator. The focus in the paper is on testing the impact of globalisation through the two major indicators-post-retirement employment and post-retirement income of army PBOR. Multiple regression test has been applied to find out the influence of globalisation on social security. The paper concludes that the retired army PBOR is more vulnerable to globalization. The efficacy of the resettlement training programmes is reduced due to globalisation and the social security programmes for army PBOR need re-structuring.Keywords

Water is a critical input for productivity enhancement especially o f field crops. Its judicious and optimum use is needed utmost for realizing higher resource use efficiency and plugging gaps in production. Resource conservation technologies or key technological interventions, which could alter or rectify the usage pattern or strategies in freshwater utilization in agriculture, are the need o f the hour. Tactical or strategic approach in water management could help in conserving and making more-efficient use of scarce water resources through integrated management combined with selected external inputs/technologies. In this context, the scientific interventions on water management involving precision levelling of land, no tillage or reduced tillage systems, furrow irrigated raised bed planting or broad bed furrow systems, management o f soil cover and crop diversification and other inclusive technological practices could enforce appropriate water management schedules.Keywords
