• ‘Poshan’ – a multi-nutrient formulation for mulberry Technologies Commercialized • ‘Poshan’ – a multi-nutrient formulation for mulberry • ‘High sprayer pump’ – for rearing house disinfections, • ‘Biofertilizer’ - for mulberry plants • ‘Navinya’ - a bio-formulation for root rot disease Decisions: Soil testing can be continued as a service and soil health monitoring activity Efforts should be made to popularize Vishala and Anatha mulberry varieties by collecting the cutting material from the respective progenitors. If any problem in procuring the material, it should be brought to the notice of Central Office. Make Action Plan for large scale field testing of L14 X CSR2 in consultation with NSSO, CSTRI Bangalore and DoS. CSR&TI, Berhampore • Seven new progenies were identified at Primary Yield Trial (PYT) level with more than 20% gain in leaf yield over the S-1635. From another trial, 7 hybrids with 19.5% to 58.5% gain over the check (S-1635) were identified. • The spacing [(90+120) x 60 cm] of mulberry plantation (S-1635) was found better in terms of quality leaf production (29.5 mt/ha/year) and maintenance of soil fertility. • Leaf samples from 126 farm’s/ farmers’ fields at 16 locations were analysed for micronutrients and observed zinc deficiency in most cases. • The mulberry variety C-2028, selected for tolerance to waterlogging yielded 6.96 mt/ha/crop under flooded condition. • Foliar application of 1% KCl on mulberry increased leaf yield to 5.9 to 6.9% over the control (no spray) at farmers’ fields in Deogarh, Bhandara, Koraput, Ranchi and West Bengal under rainfed conditions. • Pruning of the plants during June with application of Morizyme-B resulted in increase of leaf yield by 17.3% and reduced Pest and Disease incidences. • Supplementing Vermicompost with recommended FYM and NPK produced 6.4% more leaf yield to fetch a net profit of Rs. 22696/- per ha per year. • Chemical insecticide, Thiamethoxam (0.015%) was identified more effective with the safe period of 14 days for silkworm rearing to combat menace of whitefly. • A disease forecasting model for Bacterial leaf spot disease for Murshidabad district was developed. • Application of Pongamia oil (1%) was found effective in reducing the pest population within 15 days after spray. However, on the safety point of the silkworm, 1% Neem oil was more desirable for management of leaf webber. 4
Human Resource Development 471 candidates were trained. Extension Communication Programme 222 extension communication programme were conducted • Organized Five (5) Resham Krishi Melas at Berhampore, Kalimpong, Koraput, Ranchi and Jorhat along with exhibitions. More than 14,694 participated in the Mela, Field days and other programmes. • Organized Scientists-Farmers interaction session on sericultural technologies / practices. Suggestions The recommendation for applying 30 MT vermi-compost / ha/yr needs to be rechecked Sufficient focus should be given to ToT and collect the absorption details viz., Area covered, number of farmers, adopted, benefits accrued, etc. Disease forecasting and forewarning should be carried out on crop season basis. Address the poor fecundity in the silkworm hybrid B.Con1 x B.Con4 CSR&TI, Pampore • The mulberry hybrids S-106 S-140 and S-145 were found superior under multilocation trial, across the valley with a survival of 100% in S-140 S-145 in 94%. • The mulberry varieties S-146 and S-1635 were recommended for plantation as tree in H.P between the altitudes of 1000’-4500’ AMSL on the basis of higher leaf yield. • Cataloguing of temperate mulberry germplasm in North India has been done. M. bombycis has been found comparatively frost tolerant. • Lavendula officinalis, has been found to be ideal intercrop with mulberry under temperate conditions. • Under women empowerment project, 180 women beneficiaries were provided training on improved methods of silkworm rearing, mulberry plantation, and market skill for production of higher cocoon yield with quality, across three identified locations in North India. • An Integrated Pest and Disease Management (IPDM) module for mulberry pests and diseases has been developed. • Stenotrophomonas maltophilia was found most efficient nitrogen fixing bacteria under integrated nutrient management system for mulberry grown in soils of Dehradun area. New bivoltine silkworm hybrids developed: Pam115 x CSR2 ; Pam117 x Pam114 ; CSR2 x Pam117 Human Resource Development A total of 2143 farmers were trained during spring 2011 and 1219 farmers during summer and autumn 2011. Extension Communication Programme 150 extension communication programmes including Resham Krishi Mela, Field day, Group discussion, Vichar Goshti, Audio-visuals, Awareness programme and Study tour were conducted. 5
