• Spraying of Jeevan Sudha (botanical formulation against virosis) increased cocoon<br />

production by 10-12 cocoons/dfl.<br />

• A compact vertical reeling cum spinning machine was developed jointly with DOS,<br />

Jharkhand. The machine yields 200 g of raw silk per day.<br />

• Two productive lines of oak tasar silkworm producing 65 and 74 cocoons/dfl were<br />

developed.<br />

Patents filed<br />

Jeevan Sudha- a botanical formulation for control of virosis<br />

Novel technique for collection of bioactive enzyme Cocoonase from Antherea<br />

mylitta<br />

Wet reeling machine for tasar silk cocoons<br />

Vertical <strong>Silk</strong> spinning cum reeling machine – (Samridhi)<br />

Human Resource Development and Extension Programmes<br />

• 1130 Persons were trained under various training programmes and 12,089 persons<br />

were exposed to various extension programmes like field days, farmers’ days,<br />

Vichar goshtis and Farmers’ meet cum Exhibitions at various nested units of the<br />

institute.<br />

Transfer of Technology<br />

• IPR with chawki silkworm rearing under nylon net followed by late age rearing<br />

• IPM for the control of gall infestation<br />

• Foliar spray of urea for quality leaf production<br />

• Foliar spray of leaf surface microbes (LSM) for control of tasar silkworm diseases<br />

Decisions<br />

Complete the testing of reeling cum spinning machine in consultation with CSTRI,<br />

Bangalore and identify the best reeling machines within June, 2012.<br />

All the technologies should be popularized in the field.<br />

In all the front line technology demonstrations the bench mark and the targets<br />

should be clearly mentioned.<br />

CMER&TI ,Lahdoigarh<br />

• Multiplied the three plus tree genotypes viz., PT-27, PT-11 and PT-16 of som<br />

having better growth, leaf yield, disease resistance and rearing characters.<br />

• Developed a model for fertilizer application based on soil nutrient status for<br />

cultivation of som.<br />

• The leaf blight caused by Coletrotricum gloeosporioides was found to reduce by<br />

86.3% with the application of “Phyto-blighton”.<br />

• A technique for retaining som leaf fresh upto 8 days was developed.<br />

• A polythene device for practicing indoor rearing was developed in which survival of<br />

II instar worms was found to be 65.8%.<br />

• 8 wild muga silkworm stocks are under ex-situ conservation at RMRS, Boko. Out of<br />

these, Aa00-1 collected from South Garo Hills showed 96% polymorphism.<br />
