ThesisItem Open Access Management and Biochemical Studies on Cercospora Leaf Spot of Mothbean Incited by Cercospora canescens Ellis and Martin(Swami Keshwanand Rajasthan Agricultural University Bikaner (Rajasthan), 2020) RAKESH KUMAR; A.K. MeenaMothbean, Vigna aconitifolia (Jacq.) Marechal is a short-day crop is one of the most drought resistant pulses in India and mainly in Rajasthan.

Mothbean with deep and quick penetrating rooting system, can survive up to 30-40 days in open fields (Kumar D, 2002). It has ability to grow under harsh climate, low rainfall and poor & sandy soil conditions and considered as most important pulse crop of arid Rajasthan (Sharma and Ratnoo, 2014).ThesisItem Open Access Analysis on Effectiveness of Diploma in Agricultural Extension Services for Input Dealers (DAESI) Programme in Agro-climatic Zone IIIa and V of Rajasthan(COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE SWAMI KESHWANAND RAJASTHAN AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY, BIKANER, 2022) RAKESH KUMAR; R.K. Verma“India accounts for only about 2.4% of the world’s geographical area and 4% of its water resources, but has to support about 17% of the world’s human population and 15% of the livestock”(Anonymous, 2019-2020). Being the largest component of India's economy, agriculture is of utmost importance for the vast number of people. Agriculture sector employees 50% of workforce and share of agriculture and allied sectors the total (Including agriculture, livestock, forestry and fishery sub sectors) in terms of percentage of Gross Domestic Product was 20.2% during 2020-21 at current prices. (MoA&FW, 2020-21).ThesisItem Open Access Use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) by Clusterbean Growers of Bikaner District (Rajasthan)(DEPARTMENT OF EXTENSION EDUCATION COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE SWAMI KESHWANAND RAJASTHAN AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY, BIKANER, 2018) RAKESH KUMAR; A.K. JhajhariaICTs can be broadly interpreted as technologies that facilitate communication and transmission of information by electronic means. In this study ICTs is operationalised as the use of communication devices or applications by the farmers encompassing mobile phone, Internet, Kisan Call Centers for obtaining information. ICTs can make agriculture more remunerative and a fruitful occupation by providing latest information. It saves money, time and efforts and reduces dependency on so many factors in the chain of extension. With this point of view the present study was undertaken with following specific objectives.ThesisItem Open Access Regeneration Protocol for Guava (Psidium guajava L.) and it’s Molecular Analysis(DEPARTMENT OF BIOTECHNOLOGY COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, BIKANER. SWAMI KESHWANAND RAJASTHAN AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY, BIKANER (RAJ.), 2014) RAKESH KUMAR; Govind SinghA protocol for regeneration has been developed for Guava (Psidium guajava L.) cv. Udaipur 1 and Udaipur 2. High frequency regeneration of immature fruit (mesocarp) was achieved on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 2.0 mgl-1 Kinetin, 100 mgl-1 Ascorbic acid, 400 mgl-1 L-Glutamine with 6 per cent sucrose and shoot tip was achieved on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 1.0 mgl-1 BAP and 500 mgl-1 L-Glutamine with 6 per cent sucrose.
