The rising number of health-conscious consumers is giving a boost to fruit juices; it has been observed that consumers are shifting from fruit-based drinks to fruit juices as they consider the latter a healthier breakfast/snack option. There are several factors that are driving this growth like rapid urbanization, changing lifestyle and food habits of the surging generation, increasing household consumption rate, etc. Hence, foreign firms who are willing to capture India's food and beverage industry must research these recent market developments to ensure unmatched returns on investment.To understand the ultimate consumer behaviour towards packaged fruit juice-“Consumer Perception and attitude towards packaged fruit juices” involved a research on the consumer perception of packaged fruit juice, their brand preferences, recall, buying behaviour and media consumption. Due to easy availability of different flavours, people prefer packaged fruit juice over fresh fruit juice. Television and social media play a great role in influencing people’s buying behaviour. Consumers are preferring small packs because they are ready to drink and can be carried easily. The main objective of this study is to find out the factors that plays important role in choosing particular brand and what factors satisfy consumers more while consuming packaged fruit juice. Hence this report gives an overview of up to what extent the packaged juices have positioned themselves. This study is only limited to Varanasi district. According to the findings major respondents care about the brand of packaged fruit juice. Study also shows that the taste is the major factor in choosing a Fruit Juice.ThesisItem Open Access Detemination of water productivity under different prunning intensity in dalbeigia sisoo-turmeric agroforestry system(JNKVV, 2016) Kumar, Yogesh; Sahu, M.L.ABSTRACT The present investigation entitled “Determination of water productivity under different pruning intensity in Dalbergia sissoo- turmeric agro forestry system” was carried out during crop growing season 2014-15 at Dusty Acre Area, Department of Forestry, Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur (M.P.). The present investigation was aimed to find out the water productivity under different pruning classes in a dalbergia sissoo + turmeric base agro forestry system and Determination of water productivity of three selected farming practices viz., silviculture (only D. sissoo) agriculture (only turmeric), and agro forestry (D. sissoo + turmeric). To test the water productivity of turmeric + tree (Agroforestry),total 2 treatment viz. farming practices (Agroforestry & Silviculture) in main plot and total 4 pruning treatments viz., P0 (no pruning), P25 (25% pruning), P50 (50% pruning) and P75 (75% pruning) in subplot were tested in split plot design with 4 replications. To compare the water productivity of agroforestry and agriculture, total two treatments viz., farming practice (Agroforestry & Agriculture) in main plot and three different date of sowing in sub plot were tested in split plot design with four replications and finally the water productivity of agroforestry was also compared with the silviculture by taking two main treatments (agroforestry and silviculture) and four sub-treatments ( pruning intensities) Various observations on meteorological parameters (daily rainfall & daily pan- evaporation), soil texture, diameter at breast height and crop yield were recorded. The water productivity were also determined in terms of kg per hectare per centimeter of water used basis. The crop water productivity was worked out by dividing the turmeric equivalent yield by total water used. In case of agriculture, the total output was rhizome. In agroforestry, the total output was rhizome, large-sized timber, small- sized timber and fuel wood and in case of silviculture, the total output comprised large-sized timber, small-sized timber and fuel wood. All output other than rhizome was converted into turmeric equivalent yield considering market rates of produce. The water used was effective rainfall + irrigation applied for agroforestry & agriculture and only effective rainfall for silviculture. By considering daily rainfall data, mean monthly pan-evaporation, soil properties the effective rainfall has been derived by Potential Evapotranspiration/Precipitation Ratio Method (India) (FAO, 1974). Amount of irrigation water was obtained by multiplying the pump discharge rate with time of irrigation and number of irrigation applied to experiment plot. Among different pruning intensity viz., (P0 P25, P50& P75) of a agroforestry system, the pruning intensity P25 gave the highest water productivity (466 kg ha-1 cm-1), while in the other three pruning intensity i.e., P0 (298 kg ha-1 cm-1), P50 (260 kg ha-1 cm-1) & P75 (296 kg ha-1 cm-1), the water productivity was statistically at par. Agroforestry was more efficient than agriculture regarding water productivity i.e., it produced more turmeric equivalent yield per unit of water (321 kg ha-1 cm-1) as compared to agriculture (90 kg ha-1 cm-1). The water productivity did not vary significantly between agroforestry (321 kg ha-1 cm-1) and silviculture (343 kg ha-1 cm-1). It was statistically at par. Effects of date of sowing on water productivity were found That Turmeric equivalent water productivity of D1(233 kg ha-1 cm-1) was significantly superior to D2(192 kg ha-1 cm-1) and D3(192 kg ha-1 cm-1).The Interaction effects on water productivity were also observed that TEWP of P25(411 kg ha-1 cm-1) was significantly superior than P75(265 kg ha-1 cm-1). But TEWP of Po (281 kg ha-1 cm-1), P25(411 kg ha-1 cm-1) and P50 (328 kg ha-1 cm-1) were at par. Here lowest TEWP was recorded in P75. In contrast to agroforestry practices silviculture practices exhibits lowest TEWP in P50 (207 kg ha-1 cm-1). The significantly superior TEWP under silviculture was recorded in P25 (496 kg ha-1 cm-1). In silviculture TEWP of Po (330 kg ha-1 cm-1) and P75 (342 kg ha-1 cm-1) were at par.ThesisItem Open Access Effect of different bee strengths, stimulant sugar feeding on colony build up and honey stores in Apis mellifera L.(College of Agriculture Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University Hisar, 1997) Singh, Man Pal; Kumar, YogeshThesisItem Open Access Effect of some newly suggested cultural practices on the effec tive ness of insec ticidal spray applic ations agai nst major pigeonpea pod borers(College of Agriculture Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University Hisar, 1989) Kumar, Yogesh; Singh, ZileThesisItem Open Access Evaluation of lentil genotypes against Etiella zinckenella Tr. and its parasitization(College of Agriculture Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University Hisar, 2002) Kumar, Yogesh; Yadav, S.

A sample of 210 beekeepers were selected by proportionate random sampling method from the selected four districts. The respondents were selected by proportionate random sampling method. The study was aimed at identifying socio-personal attributes of apicultural farmers, their knowledge , adoption of beekeeping practices, their training needs, constraints perceived by them and finally to evaluate the remunerativeness of the apiculture enterprise. The results of the study reveal that average experience of beekeepers in this profession was 7.91 years. As far as training of the respondents was concerned, fellow beekeepers were the main source of training (66.19%) for the respondents followed by State Agriculture Department (57.61%). The knowledge gap about different aspects of beekeeping enterprise was significant. The beekeepers required training mainly in the aspects of bee breeding, bee biology and bee enemies. Training needs about apiculture practices expressed by the beekeepers were about: honey testing, rearing of queen bees, method of wax production and control of insect pests. Out of the sampled respondents, beekeeping enterprise was started by some respondents in 1967. The rate of adoption formed S-shaped rate of adoption curve. Over time there has been increase in the bee colonies of the sampled beekeepers. With the increase in size of unit, the net income of bee keepers has increased. There was a significant difference in the net income of small and large beekeepers. The bee keeping generated an additional net income of 2.25 crores per annum for 210 sampled beekeepers and if extrapolated for 905 beekeepers in the selected districts of the division, more than 10.90 crores income is generated per annum. The mean outputinput ratio of beekeeping was 9.04. The major constraints faced by the beekeepers include high cost of equipment (92.38%), disease and honey bee enemies (93.33%), lack of state government support (82.85%), public disputes due to bee sting (83.33%) and lack of honey processing unit (68.57%).ThesisItem Open Access Role of phytoestrogens on endocrine, molecular and functional maturation of reproductive system in broiler hens(IVRI, Izzat Nagar, 2013) Kumar, Yogesh; Moudgal, R.

Food is generally of plant or animal origin that contains essential nutrients, for instance, carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Packaged instant foods and ready to eat food brought the advantages of pre-prepared time-saving food to homes of ordinary people. Instant foods are those foods which help in reducing the time of preparation (within 5 minutes) Example- Coffee, Tea, Minute rice, Baby food, Maggi, Noodles, Mixed birds custard etc. Ready to eat foods usually ready to eat without further preparation. Example- Popcorn,Bread, and Juice drinks etc.Accounting for about 32 percent of the country’s total food market, The Government of India has been instrumental in the growth and development of the food processing industry. It may be concluded from the study that there is a good scope for the entry of new firms with instant food and ready to eat food products into the market. The majority of the respondents spend about 15-20 percent of their total food expenditure on instant foods and ready to eat foods per month. Consumers perceive instant foods as easy to prepare, trendy, time saving, well packed and more hygienic, convenience food.
