University of Agricultural Sciences, Bengaluru

University of Agricultural Sciences Bangalore, a premier institution of agricultural education and research in the country, began as a small agricultural research farm in 1899 on 30 acres of land donated by Her Excellency Maharani Kempa Nanjammanni Vani Vilasa Sannidhiyavaru, the Regent of Mysore and appointed Dr. Lehmann, German Scientist to initiate research on soil crop response with a Laboratory in the Directorate of Agriculture. Later under the initiative of the Dewan of Mysore Sir M. Vishweshwaraiah, the Mysore Agriculture Residential School was established in 1913 at Hebbal which offered Licentiate in Agriculture and later offered a diploma programme in agriculture during 1920. The School was upgraded to Agriculture Collegein 1946 which offered four year degree programs in Agriculture. The Government of Mysore headed by Sri. S. Nijalingappa, the then Chief Minister, established the University of Agricultural Sciences on the pattern of Land Grant College system of USA and the University of Agricultural Sciences Act No. 22 was passed in Legislative Assembly in 1963. Dr. Zakir Hussain, the Vice President of India inaugurated the University on 21st August 1964.

    EVALUATION OF HERBICIDES IN DIRECT SEEDED FINGER MILLET [Eleusine coracana (L.)]
    (UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES, GKVK BENGALURU, 2019-07-30) YATHISHA, K. P.
    A field experiment was conducted during Kharif-2018 at Zonal Agricultural Research Station, V. C. Farm, Mandya. The experiment was laid out in RCBD emphasizing nine treatments and replicated thrice. The treatments were consisting of five pre-emergence herbicides (Atrazine, oxadiargyl, bensulfuron methyl + pretilachlor, pendimethalin and isoproturon), two post-emergence herbicides (Bispyribac sodium and ethoxysulfuron), hand weeding at 20 and 35 DAS and weedy check. Major weeds observed were Cyperus rotundus, Cynodon dactylon, Eleusine indica, Ageratum conyzoides, Parthenium hysterophorus and Commelina benghalensis. Among different herbicides, pre-emergence application of bensulfuron methyl + pretilachlor 6.6% G at 198 g a.i. ha-1 + hand weeding at 30 DAS recorded lower total weed density, weed dry weight, weed index and higher weed control efficiency (29.0 m-2, 15.65 g m-2, 84.0% and 91.57%, respectively) and registered significantly higher grain (3345 kg ha-1) and straw yield (4905 kg ha-1), which may be attributed to significantly higher plant height (97.3 cm), number of tillers (39.3 m-1) and total dry weight of plant (67.8 g hill-1) at harvest. The same treatment shown higher yield attributing characters viz., number of productive tillers (37.4 m-1), finger length (9.9 cm) and grain yield per plant (25.30 g) and this treatment also resulted in higher net returns (` 46,907 ha-1) and B:C ratio (2.48) and found to be most economical and comparable with the treatment intercultivation and hand weeding at 20 and 35 DAS in direct seeded finger millet.
