Research Recommendation (Approved in Joint AGRESCO)
- 1. Work out optimum spacing for rainfed cotton on inter row spacing of 120-200 (cm) is found most suitable for rainfed cotton in Bhal Zone.
- 2. Farmers of Bhal & Coastal agroclimatic Zones growing rainfed wheat are advised to coat seeds with Phosphate cultures such as PBA-14 ( baccillus coagulants net ICBR 1:17) or PBA-13 ( baccillus coagulants net ICBR 1:111) or PBA-12( baccillus coagulants net ICBR 1:7) @ 6 pkts./ha containing 10:8 CFU/g carries at any level of phosphorus to get maximum net realization
- 3. The farmers of the Bhal & Costal Agro climatic Zone VIII (AES IA & IB) growing herbaceum cotton in kharif season are advised to apply gypsum & FYM @ 3t / ha each for securing higher yield & net return.
- 4. Farmer`s of Bhal & Coastal (AES 1-A & !-B) are advised to grow wheat (GW-1) at 30 cm. inter row spacing with a seed rate of 50 kg/ha.
- 4. The farmers of Bhal & Coastal Agro-climatic Zone –VIII growing rainfed chickpea are advised to soak seeds with Thiourea @ 500 ppm (0.5 g / lit. per kg seed) for one hour before sowing and apply two sprays of Thiourea @ 1000 ppm (1.0 g / lit.) at vegetative stage (30-35 Days after sowing) and at flowering stage (40-45 Days after sowing) to get maximum seed yield and net return
- 5. The farmers of Bhal and Coastal Agro- climatic Zone – VIII growing rainfed durum wheat are advised to apply first spray of thiourea500 ppm (5 g /10 litre water) at tillering stage (35-40 DAS) and second spray at ear emergence stage (60-65 DAS) to get maximum grain yield and net return.
- 6. The farmers of Bhal and Coastal Agro-climatic Zone growing rainfed desi cotton are recommended to sow cotton variety Gujarat Cotton21 at 60 x 30 cm spacing to get higher seed cotton yield. (In Collaboration with ARS, AAU, Viramgam)
