It is named after India's seventh Prime Minister, Chaudhary Charan Singh. It is a leader in agricultural research in India and contributed significantly to Green Revolution and White Revolution in India in the 1960s and 70s. It has a very large campus and has several research centres throughout the state. It won the Indian Council of Agricultural Research's Award for the Best Institute in 1997. HAU was initially a campus of Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana.

    An Exploratory Study on Expectation and Performance of Women Labour Engaged in paddy Cultivation
    (Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural Univesity, Hisar, 1986) Sunita; Malaviya, A
    Expectation and performance, the two concepts have diverse meaning in relation to the role of an incumbent, Expectation is anticipation and actualization in the imagination of coming events in relation to the objectives of aspiration {Le arch, 1985). on the other hand performance is the completion of an intended or promised action and the observable exercise of a skill (Meili, 1985). These two concepts are the two sides of a coin which though being together but do not join. There have been several studies which being out a wide gap between expectation and performance in any role. These two terms remain almost at two poles where these are concerned with employee and employer. Moreover in the situation where expectation of an employee and employers are related to farm operations where large number of women labour are employed. The gap between expectation and performance is more evident where women labour are concerned. Though women labour are engaged in cultivation of different crops but the situation is more delightful in paddy cultivation.

    Development and quality evaluation of crush and syrup from jamun (Syzygium cumini L.)
    (CCSHAU, 2008) Sunita; Gehlot, Rakesh
    The present investigation entitled “Development and quality evaluation of crush and syrup from jamun (Syzygium cumini L.)” was carried out with the objectives to standardize processing technology for crush and syrup and also to evaluate quality of the products during storage. Fresh jamun fruits were analyzed for different physico-chemical parameters. Data show that jamun fruit had an average fruit weight (6.03 g), pulp weight (4.13 g/fruit) and stone weight (1.84 g/fruit), respectively. Chemical constituents of jamun fruits such as total soluble solids, total sugars and reducing sugars were found to be 9.73%, 5.74% and 4.66%, whereas acidity, pectin, anthocyanin and total phenols were analyzed to be (1.26%), (1.13%), (149 mg/100 g) and (277 mg/100 g), respectively. Bibliography Chemical constituents of jamun crush and syrup were analyzed just after processing at monthly interval during three months storage period. Jamun crush with 35 per cent pulp, 55 per cent TSS and 1.0 per cent acidity was highly acceptable (7.60) followed by crush with 35 per cent pulp, 55 per cent TSS and 1.2 per cent acidity (7.57). Jamun syrup with 45 per cent pulp, 68 per cent TSS and 1.0 per cent acidity was highly acceptable (7.77) followed by crush with 45 per cent pulp, 68 per cent TSS and 1.2 per cent acidity (7.71). Acceptability of jamun crush and syrup decreased significantly with increase in storage period, however, organoleptic scores of both the beverages remained above the acceptable level even after three months of storage. Total soluble solids, total and reducing sugars increased significantly, whereas acidity, anthocyanin and total phenols of jamun crush and syrup decreased significantly during three months storage period. In crush cost of production was maximum (Rs. 26.54/l) in recipe with 35 per cent, 55 per cent TSS and 1.2 per cent acidity and minimum (Rs. 23.21/l) in recipe with 25 per cent pulp, 55 per cent TSS and 1.0 per cent acidity. In syrup, cost of production was maximum (Rs. 35.07/l) in recipe with 45 per cent pulp 68 per cent TSS and 1.2 per cent acidity and minimum (Rs. 29.34/l) in recipe with 25 per cent pulp, 68 per cent TSS and 1.0 per cent acidity.

    Human ecological systems and mental health of adolescents
    (CCSHAU, 2008) Sunita; Chhikara, Sudha
    Mental health is the capacity to work, capacity to love and the capacity to play for recreation (World Health Organization, 1993). Mental health is how people think, feel and act as they face life’s situations. It affects how young people handle stress, relates to other people and make decisions. Eaton and Peterson (1967) described a mentally healthy adult as “a person who is free of psychiatric disease, has a general feeling of well being, function at or near his full biological capacity, is competent in dealing with his environment, and has good ego strength. The present investigation was conducted to assess the mental health of adolescents. A comparative analysis was done to know the differences between rural and urban, male and female adolescents of 12-18 years age group. Haryana state was selected purposively while Sirsa district was selected purposively. From Sirsa district Dabwali block was selected randomly, city area of this block was purposively taken for urban sample while village Goriwala was randomly selected. A sample of 200 adolescents, 100 from rural and 100 from urban schools, was taken. Independent variables considered were Microsystem, Mesosystem, Exosystem, Macrosystem and Chronosystem. Mental health of adolescents was taken as dependent variables. In the process of assessment of mental health, Mental Health Battery (2000) by Arun Kumar Singh and Alpana Sen Gupta was used. A questionnaire was developed pretested and used to gather data for human ecological factors of respondents. The findings portrayed that most of the respondents of 15-18 years of age group were from rural and urban areas. Majority of the respondents belonged to nuclear and medium sized families. Parents of most of the respondent were educated upto primary or middle class. The neighbourhood status of most of the respondents was middle class and their families were having good relationships with their neighbours. Most of the parents adopted authoritative disciplining technique for their children. The variable of human ecological environment exerted a powerful influence on the mental health of the adolescents. Human ecological variables such as education of father, discipline by parents, family income, caste, general health status, surrounding and location, relationship with grandparents, visiting to or visiting by family friends and relatives, occupation of mother, relationship with neighbourhood, interaction with neighbourhood, membership of club or organization were found to be significantly associated with mental health components while other factors were not significantly associated with mental health of young adolescents, but as the human ecological system work as interconnected networks, so all the factors can be said to be directly and indirectly associated with all the components of mental health of adolescents. Differences was found to be significant between rural and urban males adolescents (12-15 years) for emotional stability, overall adjustment and autonomy which are the components of mental health, whereas non-significant differences were observed between rural and urban females (12-15 years) for these component of mental health. Further significant differences were found between rural and urban males adolescents (15-18 years) for emotional stability and overall adjustment. Significant differences were found between rural and urban female adolescents (15-18 years) for emotional stability, self-concept and intelligence. Few strategies are suggested to cope with mental health problems viz. population based intervention programme, training to the parents, school programmes, establishment of adolescent guidance centre, yoga and spiritual programme, organization of teens and adolescents discussion.
