ThesisItem Open Access RICE PRODUCTIVITY AND FOOD SECURITY: A STUDY OF THE ADOPTION OF THE SYSTEM OF RICE INTENSIFICATION (SRI) IN SELECTED DISTRICTS OF ODISHA.(UHF,NAUNI, 2002-09) DVS DEEPIKA; DHIMAN, RAHULABSTRACT The present study entitled “Rice Productivity and Food Security: A Study of the Adoption of the System of Rice Intensification (SRI) in Selected Districts of Odisha” has been done to know the level of knowledge of farmers, constraints factors influencing SRI, combination of components of SRI and farmers yield and income. The research design adopted for this study was multi-stage sampling technique, as to precise information concerning the current status of phenomenon and to draw the valid general conclusions from the fact discovered. The study was conducted in fifteen villages from three blocks in Bargarh district of Odisha. The study reveals that policy makers need to focus on establishing and strengthening local collective institutions. Local institutions can play a crucial role in providing farmers with timely information, inputs and technical assistance. The study also reveals that SRI requires less water as compared to traditional method, farmers require their own irrigation facility for the purpose of proper water management which is an essential component of SRI. The outcomes of SRI adoption on yield and household income showed that all the three principles of SRI and its various combinations-plant management, soil management and water management-enhanced the rice yield. The impact of SRI in enhancing rice yield and household income were observed in the analysis. The wider adoption of SRI can contribute to promoting not only sustainable agricultural practices but also for greater food security provided the constraints that the farmers are facing are addressed with appropriate policy interventionsThesisItem Open Access EFFECT OF SOIL MOISTURE AND NUTRIENT REGIMES ON THE GROWTH AND NUTRIENT CONTENT OF MULTIPURPOSE TREE SPECIES(UHF,NAUNI, 2002) SHARMA, YOGENDER; SHARMA, J.C.ThesisItem Open Access GENETIC EVALUATION OF SOME TOMATO LINES AND THEIR HYBRIDS(UHF,NAUNI, 2009) SANTOSH KUMARI; THAKUR, M.C.ThesisItem Open Access GENETIC VARIABILITY AND CORRELATION STUDIES IN PEA(PISUM SATIVUM L.)(UHF,NAUNI, 2000) MEHTA, SEEMA; KOHLI, U.K.ThesisItem Open Access STANDARDIZATION OF DRYING TECHNOLOGY OF WILD POMEGRANATE(PUNICA GRANATUM L.)
