onion |
Assessment Panipet storage in onion |
5 |
T1- Farmer’s practice -Storing of onion at field under shade condition
T2 – Recommended practice - Foliar spray of MH @2500 PPM 15 days before harvest.
T3 – Alternative practice -Storing onion in a locally made up storage structures |

MH with Panipet type storage structure extended the onion storage life up to 6 months compared traditional method of storage |
Providing bottom ventilation for free and faster air circulation to avoid formation of hot and humid pockets between the onion layers
Increased storage life of onion up to 5-6 months then conventional method of storage(1-2months)
Low cost structure for onion storage and maximum return when the price is high in the market due to storage of onion |
Tomato |
Assessment of tomato hybrids for summer seasons |
|
T1- Farmer’s practice - No specific hybrids
T2 – Recommended practice- COTH 2
T3 – Alternative practice - Testing of improved hybrids (US 618, Lakshimi 5005, US 4031) |

Mealybug incidence was reduced to a level of 20.3 % and 14.8 % respectively due to the application of Chlorpyriphos 5ml/l followed by Profenophos 2ml/l and Spraying of Neem oil + Verticillium lecanii |
Plant mortality due to mealybug incidence was reduced |
Banana |
Management of banana wilt |

T1- Drenching of available fungicides
T2- Corm treatment using Pseudomonas and application of Pseudomonas along with FYM.
Capsule application with Bavistin on 3rd, 5th and 7th month of planting

Panama wilt of banana is reduced to a level of 19.4 % and 16.5 % respectively due to Corm treatment using Pseudomonas and application of Pseudomonas along with FYM +
Capsule application with Bavistin on 3rd, 5th and 7th month of planting
and Pseudostem injection of Bavistin @ 4ml/ tree and drenching of Bavistin (4ml/l of water) @ 2 litres/ tree |
Reduction in yield due to mortality of banana plants is reduced |
Dairy |
Management of infertility cross bred cows |
25 |
T1- Repeated artificial insemination
T2 – Estrus synchronization with PGF 2 alpha and fixed time A1 after 72 hours
T3 –
Deworming , supplementation of mineral mixture @ 50 g /day for a period of three months and injection of tonophosphan |
Body weight and fertility status |
25 cows were weighed initially wt 390 kg/cow |
After deworming , supplementation of mineral mixture @ 50 g /day for a period of three months and tonophosphan injection is given which resulted in animal increase of body weight ie 422 kg in 1 ½ months period and it was found that fertility status ,metabolism and milk production was improved in cows . |
The farmer was satisfied as the animal increase in body weight and fertility status was improved. |
