    Abstract Multi-model ensemble of Maximum (Tmax) and Minimum (Tmin) temperature data of four Representative Concentration Pathways viz., RCP 2.6, RCP 4.5, RCP 6.0 and RCP 8.5 of Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 5 (CMIP5) models were generated for ten major groundnut growing locations of the India to predict the number of generations of Spodoptera litura (Fab.) using Growing Degree Days approach during three future climate viz., Near (NF), Distant (DF) and Very Distant (VDF) periods and were compared over 1976-2005 baseline period (BL). Projections indicate significant increase in Tmax (0.7-4.7 °C) and Tmin (0.7-5.1 °C) in NF, DF and VDF periods under the four RCP scenarios at the ten groundnut growing locations. Higher percent increase of the number of generations of S. litura was predicted to occur in VDF (6-38%) over baseline, followed by DF (5-22%) and NF (4-9%) periods with reduction of generation time (5-26%) across the four RCP scenarios. Reduction of crop duration was higher (12-22 days) in long duration groundnut than in medium and short duration groundnut. Decrease in crop duration was higher in VDF (12.1-20.8 days) than DF (8.26-13.15 days) and NF (4.46-6.15 days) climate change periods under RCP 8.5 scenario. Increase in number of generations of S. litura was predicted even with altered crop duration of groundnut. Among locations, more number of generations of S. litura with reduced generation time are likely at Vridhachalam and Tirupathi locations. Geographical location (74-77%) and climate period (15-19%), together explained over 90 percent of the total variation in the number of generations and generation time of S. litura. These findings suggest that the incidence of S. litura on groundnut could be higher in future.

    Abstract Six field experiments were conducted on sunflower with treatments comprising of 4 dates of sowing (sown during different standard meteorological weeks viz., 28 (9-15 July), 30 (23-29 July), 32 (6-12 August) and 34 (21-26 August), 3 moisture conservation methods (ridge & furrow, skip row with furrow and flat bed) and 3 levels of fertilizer NP (40-20, 50-25 and 60-30 kg/ha) during kharif 1999 to 2004 at Solapur on semi-arid vertisols. Based on daily rainfall (RF), daily runoff (RO) and crop soil moisture stress index (MSI) were measured for each combination of date of sowing (DOS) and moisture conservation (MC) method in each season. Correlation analysis indicated a positive relation of seed yield with rainfall in all 4 DOS. The relation was relatively higher for flat bed in 1ˢᵗ DOS, ridge & furrow in 2ⁿᵈ DOS, skip row with furrow in 3ʳᵈ and 4ᵗʰ DOS. It was negatively related with RO in 1ˢᵗ DOS, but positively related with the other 3 DOS. The relation was higher under ridge & furrow system in 1ˢᵗ DOS (negative) and 4ᵗʰ DOS (positive), while under flat bed in 2ⁿᵈ and 3ʳᵈ DOS. Negative relation of MSI was found with yield under all the 12 combinations of DOS and MC indicating a higher relation under skip row with furrow in 1ˢᵗ, 2ⁿᵈ and 4ᵗʰ DOS, and flat bed in 3ʳᵈ DOS. The relation between RF and RO was positive, while MSI had negative relation with both RF and RO. Regression models of seed yield through RF, RO, SMI, fertilizer N and P, along with fertilizer x MSI interaction were calibrated. The predictability ranged from 0.12 (ridge and furrow in 3ʳᵈ DOS) to 0.91 (flat bed in 1ˢᵗ DOS). A ready reckon of optimal N and P doses at varying MSI levels (0.15 to 0.75) indicated that ridge and furrow method is efficient in 1st DOS with an optimal N and P ranging from 51 to 53 kg/ha and 26 to 27 kg/ha, respectively. Skip row with furrow method was efficient when crop was sown in any of the other DOS with an optimal N ranging from 38 to 66 kg/ha (2ⁿᵈ DOS), 44 to 73 kg/ha (3ʳᵈ DOS) and 47 to 74 kg/ha (4ᵗʰ DOS). The optimal P ranged from 19 to 33 kg/ha (2ⁿᵈ DOS), 22 to 36 kg/ha (3ʳᵈ DOS) and 24 to 37 kg/ha (4ᵗʰ DOS) for attaining maximum productivity of sunflower on semi-arid vertisols.

    Six expériences sur le terrain ont été faites sur le tournesol au moyen des traitements suivants : quatre dates de semis (pendant différentes semaines météorologiques standard, c’est-à-dire 28 (9-15 juillet), 30 (23-29 juillet), 32 (6-12 août) et 34 (21-26 août); trois méthodes de conservation de l’humidité du sol (labour en billons, semis en sillon avec rangs d’espacement intermédiaires et semis en sol plat) et trois niveaux de fertilisants NP (40-20, 50-25 et 60-30 kg/ha) pendant les saisons de kharif de 1999 ñ 2004 à Solapur dans des conditions semi-arides (vertisols). Les indices de stress dû au degré d’humidité du sol (MSI) ont été mesurés sur la base des précipitations quotidiennes (RF), de la perte quotidienne d’eau (RO) et de la saison de la récolte pour toutes les dates de semis (DOS) combinées à la méthode de conservation de l’humidité (MC) à chaque saison. L’analyse corrélative a montré une corrélation positive entre le rendement et les précipitations pour les quatre dates de semis. La relation a été relativement plus élevée pour le semis en sol plat pour la première date de semis, pour le labour en billons pour la deuxième date et pour le semis en sillon avec rangs d’espacement intermédiaires pour les troisième et quatrième dates. On a constaté une relation négative entre le rendement et la perte quotidienne d’eau pour la première date de semis, mais une relation positive pour les trois autres dates de semis. La relation était élevée pour le labour en billons pour la première date de semis (négative) et pour la quatrième date (positive), et pour le semis en sol plat pour la deuxième et la troisième date. Une relation négative de l’indice d’humidité du sol (MSI) et du rendement a été constatée pour les 12 dates de semis combinées è l’humidité du sol avec une relation élevée pour le semis en sillon avec rangs d’espacement intermédiaires pour la première, la deuxième et la quatrième date de semis et pour le semis en sol plat è la troisième date de semis. La relation entre les précipitations quotidiennes et la perte quotidienne d’eau a été positive tandis que l’indice d’humidité du sol a été en corrélation négative autant pour les précipitations quotidiennes que pour la perte quotidienne d’eau.Les modèles de régression du rendement en graines en rapport avec les précipitations quotidiennes, la perte quotidienne d’eau, l’indice d’humidité du sol, les fertilisants N et P ainsi qu’en rapport è l’interaction fertilisant × indice d’humidité du sol ont été calculés. Les valeurs prévues s’échelonnaient entre 0,12 (pour le labour en billons pour la troisième date de semis) à 0,91 (pour le semis en sol plat pour la première date de semis). Un barème des doses N et P optimales à différents niveaux de stress dè au degré d’humidité du sol (0,15 à 0,75) a montré que la méthode de labour en billons est efficace pour la première date de semis avec des doses N et P optimales qui s’échelonnent de 51 à 53 kg/ha (N) et de 26 à 27 kg/ha (P) respectivement. La méthode de semis en sillon avec rangs d’espacement intermédiaires a été efficace pour les autres dates de semis avec des valeurs N optimales qui s’échelonnaient de 38 à 66kg/ ha (deuxième date de semis), de 44 à 73 kg/ha (troisième date de semis) et de 47 à 74 kg/ha (quatrième date de semis). La valeur optimale P s’échelonnait de 19 à 33 kg/ha (deuxième date de semis), de 22 à 36 kg/ha (troisième date de semis) et de 24 à 37 kg/ha (quatrième date de semis) pour l’obtention d’une productivité maximale du tournesol dans des conditions semi-arides (vertisols).

    Abstract Based on experiments conducted during 1988–2009 on rainfed pearl millet/sorghum with 9 treatments in Vertisols, an efficient treatment for sustainable productivity is identified. Twenty kg of nitrogen (N) from farmyard manure (FYM) + 20 kg N (urea) + 10 kg phosphorus (P) ha ⁻¹ in pearl millet and 40 kg N (urea) + 20 kg P + 25 kg zinc sulfate (ZnSO ₄) ha ⁻¹ in sorghum gave maximum yield and rainwater-use efficiency, whereas 20 kg N (FYM) + 20 kg (urea) + 10 kg P ha ⁻¹ in pearl millet and 40 kg (urea) + 20 kg P ha ⁻¹ in sorghum and gave maximum soil N, P, and potassium (K) over years. The regression model of 20 kg N (crop residue) + 20 kg N (urea) + 10 kg P ha ⁻¹ gave maximum R ² for predicting sorghum equivalent yield separately through precipitation and soil variables, whereas 20 kg N (FYM) + 20 kg N (urea) + 10 kg P ha ⁻¹ gave maximum R ² under combined model of both variables. Treatment of 20 kg N (FYM) + 20 kg N (urea) + 10 kg P ha ⁻¹ was superior for attaining maximum sorghum equivalent yield of 1062 kg ha ⁻¹, net returns of Rs. 4805 ha ⁻¹, benefit/cost (BC) ratio of 1.50, and 127 kg ha ⁻¹ of soil N, 10.3 kg ha ⁻¹ of soil P, and 386 kg ha ⁻¹ of soil K over years.

    Abstract Long-term field experiments were conducted at Agra, Solapur and Hisar from 2000 to 2008 to identify efficient tillage and nutrient management practices and to develop predictive models that would describe the relationship between crop yields and monthly rainfall for rainfed pearl millet grown on arid and semi-arid Inceptisol, Vertisol and Aridisol soils. Nine treatments comprising a factorial combination of three tillage practices, viz., conventional tillage (CT), low tillage + interculture (LT1) and low tillage + herbicide (LT2) and three fertilizer treatments viz., 100% N from an organic source (F1), 50% organic N + 50% inorganic N (F2) and 100% inorganic N (F3) were tested in a split-plot design at the three locations. Studies revealed that tillage and fertilizer treatments, and their interactions, significantly influenced pearl millet grain yields at the three locations. Prediction models describing the relation between grain yield and monthly rainfall indicated that rainfall occurring in June, July and August at Agra; June and July at Solapur; and June and August at Hisar significantly influenced pearl millet grain yield attained by different treatments. The R2 values of the model ranged from 0.64 to 0.81 at Agra; 0.63 to 0.92 at Solapur, and 0.75 to 0.89 at Hisar. When averaged over all the treatment combinations, mean pearl millet grain yields varied from 1590 to 1744 kg ha−1 at Agra; 1424 to 1786 kg ha−1 at Solapur; and 1675 to 1766 kg ha−1 at Hisar while their corresponding sustainability yield indice (SYI) varied from 35.4 to 42.2%, 19.9 to 45.6% and 64.1 to 68.3%, respectively. At Agra (Inceptisol), CTF3 resulted in significantly higher mean net returns (Rs 11 439 ha−1), benefit-cost ratio (2.33), rainwater use efficiency (RWUE) (3.52 kg ha−1 mm−1) and the second best SYI (39.9%). At Solapur (Vertisol), the LT1F3 resulted in significantly higher net returns (Rs 12 818 ha−1), benefit-cost ratio (3.52), RWUE (3.89 kg ha−1 mm−1) and the fourth best SYI (42.6%). At Hisar (Aridisol), the LT1F3 treatment gave higher net returns (Rs 3866 ha−1), benefit-cost ratio (1.26), RWUE (5.05 kg ha−1 mm−1) and the fourth best SYI (67.8%). These treatment combinations can be recommended for their respective locations to achieve maximum RWUE, productivity and profitability.
