Anand Agricultural University, Anand

Anand Agricultural University (AAU) was established in 2004 at Anand with the support of the Government of Gujarat, Act No.(Guj 5 of 2004) dated April 29, 2004. Caved out of the erstwhile Gujarat Agricultural University (GAU), the dream institution of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Dr. K. M. Munshi, the AAU was set up to provide support to the farming community in three facets namely education, research and extension activities in Agriculture, Horticulture Engineering, product Processing and Home Science. At present there seven Colleges, seventeen Research Centers and six Extension Education Institute working in nine districts of Gujarat namely Ahmedabad, Anand, Dahod, Kheda, Panchmahal, Vadodara, Mahisagar, Botad and Chhotaudepur AAU's activities have expanded to span newer commodity sectors such as soil health card, bio-diesel, medicinal plants apart from the mandatory ones like rice, maize, tobacco, vegetable crops, fruit crops, forage crops, animal breeding, nutrition and dairy products etc. the core of AAU's operating philosophy however, continues to create the partnership between the rural people and committed academic as the basic for sustainable rural development. In pursuing its various programmes AAU's overall mission is to promote sustainable growth and economic independence in rural society. AAU aims to do this through education, research and extension education. Thus, AAU works towards the empowerment of the farmers.

    INFLUENCE OF NITROGEN AND PHOSPHORUS LEVELS ON THE PERFORMANCE OF HIGH YIELDING DWARF VARIETIES OF WHEAT (Triticum aestivum L.)
    (AAU, Anand, 1982) AMIN, ANILKUMAR U.; Damor, U. M.
    With an objective to study the performance of dsarf wheat varieties (F. aestivum L.) to various levels of nitrogen and phosphorus, an investigation was carried out at the Agronomy Farm of B.A. College of Agriculture, Anand during rabi season on the year 1981-82. Twenty four treatment combinations involving two varieties viz., Lok-1 and Sonalike, four levels of nitrogen (0, 60, 120, 180 kg/ha) and three levels of phosphorus (0, 60 and 120 kg/ha) were laid in split plot design with four replications.

    EFFECT OF MULCHES AND REFLECTANT ON THE YIELD AND QUALITY OF MUSTARD (BRASSICA JUNCEA (L) (COZERN & COSS) VARIETY VARUNA UNDER LIMITED IRRIGATION
    (AAU, Anand, 1981) VEGADA, DINESHCHANDRA ALJIBHAI; DAMOR, U. M.
    Mustard (Brassica juncea (L) Cozern & Coss) is one of the oilseed crops of India. It is an irrigated crop in Gujarat. Since water requirement of mustard is low, whereas out of all the essential nutrients nitrogen is of supreme importance. With a view to have insight on the optimum irrigation intervals coupled with mulches and reflectants levels for mustard variety ‘Varuna’, the present study was concluded. A field experiment was laid out at B.A. College of Agriculture, Anand during rabi season 1979-80. The treatments included in this study considered of two levels of irrigation viz. Irrigation of an interval of 25 days (I1) and 45 days (I2) and mulched treatments, three levels of mulches (Control, M1), wheat chopped straw (M2), interculturing (M3) and three levels of Kaolin Control (K1), one spray of kaolin (K2) and two spray of kaolin (K3).

    EFFECT OF VARIOUS COMPLEX FERTILIZERS & ZINC LEVELS ON YIELD OF HIGH YIELDING VARIETIES OF GROUNDNUT (ARACHIS HYPOGAEA, L.)
    (AAU, Anand, 1980) Patel, Shantilal K.; Patel, B. A.
    Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea, L.) is one of the important oil seed crops of India, especially of Gujarat, and it is now introduced as a summer crop in irrigated areas. The experiment with four replications was conducted on loamy sandy soil of Anand, in the Factorial Randomized Block Design, with a view to see the possibility of growing groundnut in Middle Gujarat as a summer crop. Three different high yielding varieties, three various sources of complex fertilizers and two levels of zinc were tried.

    RESPONSE OF GROUNDNUT (ARACHIS HYPOGAEA. L.) VARIETY G.A.U.G-10 TO VARYING LEVELS OF NITROGEN AND PHOSPHORUS AND METHODS OF THEIR APPLICATION.
    (AAU, Anand, 1982) PATEL, BHIKHABHAI J.; PATEL, N. R.
    With an object to study the response of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea, L.) variety G.A.U.G-10 to varying levels of nitrogen and phosphorus and methods of their application, an investigation was carried out at the Agronomy Farm, B.A.College of Agriculture, Anand during kharif season of the year 1980-81.

    EFFECT OF DIFFERENT LEVELS OF NITROGEN, PHOSPHORUS AND ZINC ON YIELD OF GROUNDNUT (ARACHIS HYPOGAEA L.) VARIETY G. A. U. G. I
    (AAU, Anand, 1980) BARAIYA, L. N.; Patel, B. A.
    Groundnut Arachis hypogaea L. is one of the important oil seed crops of India. It is generally considered as a crop of low manurial requirement. Adequate and judicious application of fertilizer is surest way to increase the production of groundnut crop. With a view to have insight on the optimum doses of nitrogen, phosphorus and zinc levels for groundnut variety C.A.U.G.I, the present study was conducted. A field experiment was laidout at experimental Commercial Fertilizer Project Farm, B.A. College of Agriculture, Anand during kharif season 1979.

    INFLUENCE OF NITROGEN AND ZINC LEVELS ON THE PERFORMANCE OF HYBRID VARIETIES OF BAJRA [Pennisetum typhoides (Brum) S & H]
    (AAU, Anand, 1981) PATEL, ARVINDKUMAR M.; Damor, U. M.
    The experiment was conducted at the College Farm of B.A.College of Agriculture, Gujarat Agricultural University, Anand Campus,Anand during summer season of 1979-80 under irrigated condition to find out the optimum requirement of nitrogen and zinc for realizing yield performance of bajra hybrids BJ-104, CJ-104 and MBH-110 The treatments comparised 3 bajra varieties (BJ-104, CJ-104 and MBH-110) as main plot treatment and nitrogen levels (60, 90 and 120 kg N/ha) as well as zinc levels ( 0 ppm and 5 ppm ) in combinations as sub-plot treatment laid out in split plot design with four replications.

    RESPONSE OF GROWTH REGULATORS UNDER STRESS AND NON-STRESS CONDITIONS OF SOIL MOISTURE ON GROWTH AND YIELD OF MUSTARD ( Brassica juncea (L.) Czern & Coss.) VARIETY VARUNA
    (AAU, Anand, 1982) PATEL, MANUBHAI M.; Mehta, H. M.
    The investigations were carried out at the College Agronomy Farm, B.A. College og Agriculture, Anand with a view to study the response of growth regulators under stress and non-stress conditions of soil moisture on growth and yield of mustard (Brassica juncea (l.) czern & coss.) variety Varuna during the rabi seasons of the year 1980-81 and 1981-82. The treatments were consisted of two soil moisture conditions viz., stress condition (irrigation at pre-flowering state) and non-stress condition (irrigation at branching, pre-flowering and pod-formation stage) along with two growth regulators (cycocel and succinic acid) having two concentrations (500 ppm and 1000 ppm) and two levels of number of sprays (single spray and three sprays) with two controls.Split plot design with irrigations as main plot and growth regulators and their combinations as sub-plots with & replications was employed in this study.
