Stalk rot disease of maize is a serious problem in all major maize growing regions but the exact disease incidence and estimated loss in Karnataka is not known. Therefore, in the present study, field survey was conducted in major maize growing districts of Karnataka during the three Kharif seasons from 2013-15. Rowing field survey was conducted to determine the incidence of stalk rot. A total of 10 maize growing districts were surveyed and the data were collected on the incidence of stalk rot. The study also reported the prevalence of stalk rot in all maize producing regions. The highest percent prevalence of stalk rot disease was recorded in Bellary region (66.66%). The maximum mean incidence was observed in Bellary and Koppal districts (>24% mean incidence) and least was in Dharwad and Haveri (<5% mean incidence). Similarly, maximum disease incidence was recorded in Shankarbande regions of Bellary followed by Halagere (Koppala) with maximum incidence of >40%. The isolation frequency of Fusarium species associated with stalk rot diseases ranged from 45 -57%. Study also indicated that, several other fungal pathogens were also associated with the stalk rot. However, incidence of Fusarium was dominant in all the study areas. Fusarium species isolated from infected stalks were identified based on colony characteristics and morphological features. In conclusion, the present study determined the actual disease incidence and prevalence of stalk rot disease in major maize growing districts of Karnataka.

Economic motivation plays an important role in soaring the level of knowledge of banana growers about integrated pest management. Economically motivated farmers are more oriented towards profit maximization from farming as they give comparatively more value on economic ends. Keeping this in view, an attempt has been made to study economic motivation and its relationship with the level of knowledge of banana growers about integrated pest management. The result of study revealed that slightly more than four-fifth (84.00 percent) of the banana growers was found with high to very high level of economic motivation. It is also revealed that economic motivation of the banana growers had positive and highly significant (r = 0.305**) relationship with their level of knowledge about IPM.

A machine was designed and developed for coconut milk extraction and its performance was evaluated at IIFPT, Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu. The milk extraction efficiency was found to be 78.27%. The milk yield was tested with three different nozzle clearance of 2, 3, 4 mm and rotational speeds of 40, 50 and 60 rpm. Finding saying that, the percentage of coconut milk yield was higher at the point of combination of the nozzle clearance of 2 mm with the rotational speed of 40 rpm which yielded about 49.03% of coconut milk. The lowest coconut milk yield of 33.38% was analyzed during the point of combination of the nozzle clearance of 4 mm with the rotational speed of 60 rpm. Both lower and higher percentage of coconut milk yield were having a significant difference (p<0.05) with other results. The experiment shows that the increase in rotational speed of the motor resulted in decrease in the milk yield. It was also showing that the average milk yield started to decrease while increasing the nozzle clearance (mm). Thus, our major research finding saying that, lower rotational speed and nozzle clearance result to the higher amount of coconut milk yield. The performance evaluation indicates the values of 30.52 kg/h and 0.041kWh/kg-grated coconut for average feed rate (FR) and Specific energy consumption (SEC) for the designed coconut milk extractor.

Most of the increase in agricultural output over the years has taken place under irrigated conditions. As bringing more area under irrigated cultivation is constrained by availability of cultivable land and investment, it is the need of the hour for policy makers to plan in such a way that improved production for meeting future food grain demand should come from rainfed cultivation. The present study was aimed to estimate the resource use efficiency and technical efficiency of the irrigated and rainfed farms cultivating paddy. The efficiency ratio of human labour, fertilizers Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potash was more than one as all these inputs were underutilized and for seed it was less than one which indicated that the resources were over utilized. The study indicated that both irrigated and rainfed farms were technically efficient. There will be opportunity for increasing the yield or income of the farms only by using the resources optimally and going for location specific technologies and varieties.

CERES-Rice model was used to simulate phenophases and yield of rice varieties. Field experiments were conducted during the period from May to November 2016 at Mannuthy, Kerala Agricultural University, Thrissur. Two rice varieties (Jyothi and Kanchana) and five dates of planting (1st week of June to 1st week of August) at fortnight intervals. Calibration of genetic coefficients was done with maximum number of iterations and then the model was validated. The model could simulate the phenology of both the rice varieties with D- stat value ranging between 0.5 to 0.7 for physiological maturity and 0.6 to 0.7 for Anthesis. It shows the credible performance of the model in simulating phenophases. The model overestimated the grain yields of rice varieties Jyothi and Khanchana which needs further refinement.

Groundnut is an important source of oil and protein and is considered as king of vegetable oilseed crop. Oil seeds occupy an important position in the agriculture economic of the country and occupy an area of 27.20 million hectares with the production of 32.80 million tones and productivity of 1108 kg ha-1. The largest production of oil seeds India has been recorded in Madhya Pradesh with production of 9.3 Mt of oil seeds in 2012-13. India is also the largest producer of oil seeds in the world and contributes 7% of the global vegetable oils production, with a 14% share in the global oil seeds area. Phosphorus is an important primary nutrient and enhances the root growth thereby facilitating absorption of water and nutrients from deeper layers. Phosphorus stimulates not only the root growth but also hastens the maturity of oilseed crops. The groundnut crop requires judicious supply of phosphorus for its normal growth and development. Being a day neutral crop, ample irrigations are required by groundnut in summer and missing any irrigation at any one of the critical growth stages results into considerable reduction in pod yield. High soil moisture results in pod rot, low yield and poor seed quality and also water stress reduces photosynthesis mainly due to reduction in photosynthetic area. A study has been conducted during summer season of 2018 at Bagusala Farm (18.80 N latitude and 84.18 E longitude) of M.S. Swaminathan School of Agriculture, CUTM, Parlakhemundi, Odisha under typical humid and sub-tropical climatic conditions to know the best irrigation scheduling and optimum phosphorus level for summer groundnut. The treatment combinations include three irrigation levels (I1, I2 and I3 at 30, 60 and 90 CPE respectively) and four phosphorus levels (P1, P2, P3 and P4 at 0, 30, 60 and 90 kg ha-1, respectively). The treatments were laid out using Factorial Randomised Block Design and replicated thrice with 12 treatment combinations. The variety taken for the experiment was K-6 and sown on the spacing of 60cm×45cm. Irrespective of phosphorus levels, highest plant height (88.41cm), pod yield (23.92 q ha-1), kernel yield (16.99 qha-1), shelling (70.93%) foundinI1treatment.
