    Abstract This project has come out with an end to end solution for assessment of soil health and recommending management practices according to the soil health status. In this endeavor, DUS(Soil) a generic framework for identifying relevant soil health indicators was developed and this is a significant output of the project. It optimizes the methodology for developing management recommendations according to the soil health indicator status and the biophysical context. The SHIMAS tool which consists of a database of recommendations of cultural practices for different classes of the indicators, a GUI for the user to select the soil health indicators status of his field and a pop up window for the display of appropriate recommendations culled out from the database. Also, >450 farmers were trained on soil health assessment. Sustainability analysis of agriculture in the district in terms of stability of food grain production as well as that of area and productivity was also done.

    Abstract The modern industrial agriculture is in crisis. People are questioning the quality, safety and sustainability of our industrial food system. People are also questioning the wisdom of scientific agriculture as science has eventually succeeded in taking the sacred out of farming. However, the crisis brings with it opportunities for decisive, positive change. Based on our recent studies on agri-food system dynamics of traditional small-scale hill farming in Uttarakhand state of north-western India, we could document some community LEK-based innovations that can bring sustainability in food and farming systems. The lessons learned are presented here in this communication that are expected to help create a regenerative farming system mainly by reclaiming the spiritual roots of farming and food systems.

    Abstract Adapting to new climatic, social, and environmental realities demands deep and massive transformative changes in how humans manage, perceive, and relate with terrestrial and aquatic productive systems. In India, agriculture production is challenged by degraded soils, scarce and contested water, fragmented and degraded seminatural habitats, social conflict, and more frequent extreme events. Existing political will is enabling the adoption of sustainable agriculture. However, the pace and the extent of the adoption of promising strategies, practices, and approaches for achieving sustainable and resilient agriculture remains sparse. Accelerating a socially just transformation to sustainability in India requires a new systems-oriented, multidisciplinary, human well-being-centered research agenda. Specifically, the new agenda can expand, contest and reevaluate agriculture performance’ in terms of how is evaluated and measured at the farm and landscape level. The new evidence will be critical for learning, innovating and re-designing sustainable, multifunctional and resilient agricultural landscapes.

    Abstract The physicochemical and functional properties of grains, flour and protein isolates (QPI) from different quinoa lines were evaluated. Quinoa flour and protein isolates were characterised by high protein (14.1–15.4% and 78.7–86%, respectively) and phenolic content (419 to 655 mg GAE/100 g). Water and oil absorption capacity of QPI (2.0–3.6 g/g and 2.71–3.32 g/g, respectively) was significantly higher than quinoa flour (1.22 and 2.17 gand 0.9 and1.54 g, respectively). QPI showed desirable functional properties in terms of high foaming capacity (50.8 to 60.2%), foam stability (38.5 to 50.4%), protein solubility (30 and 53.3%), and emulsification index (EAI- 19.2–26.1 m²/g and ESI- 96.7–149.8 min, respectively). Digestibility of QPI ranged between 70.8 and 77.8% and was negatively correlated to random coils. Quinoa lines with higher grain density (GD) showed higher total phenol content (TPC) and WAC and lower FRSA and OAC. QPI with higher proportions of β-structure and random coils had enhanced protein surface activities leading to improved emulsification and foaming capabilities. Among the highly conserved polypeptides (PPs), variations were observed in accumulation of 53, 59 and 32 kDa PPs for grains and 33 and 21–24 kDa PPs for QPI.

    Abstract Amaranth and buckwheat are two pseudo-cereals preferred for their high nutritional value, are gluten free and carry religious importance as fasting food. Germplasm resources are the reservoir of diversity for different traits, including nutritional characteristics. These resources must be evaluated to utilize their potential in crop improvement programs. However, conventional methods are labor-, cost- and time-intensive and prone to handling errors when applied to large samples. NIRS-based machine learning to predict different nutritional traits is applied in different food crops for multiple traits. NIRS prediction models are developed in this study using the mPLS regression technique for oil, protein, fatty acids and essential amino acid estimation in amaranth and buckwheat. Good RSQ external (power of determination) values were obtained for the above traits ranging from 0.72 to 0.929. Ratio performance deviation (RPD) value for most of the traits ranged between 2 and 3, except for valine (1.88) and methionine (3.55), indicating good prediction capabilities in the developed model. These prediction models were utilized in screening the germplasm of amaranth and buckwheat; the results obtained were in good agreement and confirmed the applicability of developed models. It will enable the identification of a trait-specific germplasm as a potential gene source and aid in crop improvement programs.
