The advancements in fodder maize cultivation practices over the past few years, has paved a change makeup of weed associations. This made it necessary to incorporate new, effective herbicides struggle against maize's primary weeds. Therefore, field experiment was conducted at Research Farm, AICRP on Forage Crops, Department Agronomy, JNKVV, Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh) during Kharif season 2019 de...

The effects of herbicide management of genetically modified herbicide-tolerant (GMHT) beet, maize and spring oilseed rape on the abundance and diversity of soil-surface-active invertebrates were assessed. Most effects did not differ between years, environmental zones or initial seedbanks or between sugar and fodder beet. This suggests that the results may be treated as generally applicable to a...

Aim: To determine the metabolizable protein (MP) content of common indigenous feedstuffs used in ruminant nutrition using in situ method. Materials and Methods: Nine ruminant feeds such as maize grain (MG), groundnut cake (GNC), mustard oilcake (MOC), cottonseed cake (CSC), deoiled rice bran (DORB), wheat bran (WB), berseem fodder (BF), maize fodder (MF) and sorghum fodder (SF) were included in...

Maize is considered an unsurpassed silage crop, so breeding in this direction of great relevance. The study was carried out at the FSBSI «Agricultural Research Center «Donskoy» 2019–2021. purpose to productivity and nutritional value new hybrid combinations, identify dependencies optimize process. In order develop hybrids, there applied method interline hybridization using heterosis first gener...

The field experiments were conducted during 2017-19 at the ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi, India. main aim of study was to find out a suitable cropping system that can replace existing rice-wheat realize higher productivity and profitability. Four systems, viz. rice (Oryza sativa L.) - mustard (Brassica juncea mungbean (Vigna radiata L.), maize (Zea mays mustard-mungbean...

Most soil studies aim a better characterization of the system through indicators. In the present study nematofauna and soil structure were chosen as indicators to be assess soil health as related to agricultural practices. The field research was carried out on the two fodder cropping systems continuous maize (CM, Zea mays L.) and a 3-year rotation of silage-maize – silage-barley (Hordeum vulgar...

The paper analyses the costs of production roughage and nutritive fodder fattening HF Limousine crossbreds feeder cattle. growing for cattle were calculated per one hectare. cost producing tonne feed was determined based on farm’s mean crop yield. calculation included maintenance, including feeding 14 animals over 22 months. kept untethered in stalls with deep litter from body weight 36.86 kg t...
