3.1 25.9.2013 1. Dr. J. S. Dhankhar, Director Extension Education, CCSHAU, Hisar

Once in a year, meeting of Progressive & Innovative

Farmers of Northern region & Southern Haryana region

should be organized in the respective region so that ideas

and innovations be exchanged.

The quarterly magazine of the KVK “Krishi Vigyan

Patrika” should be printed in colourful pages so that it

becomes attractive and expenditure incurred in publication

may be arranged under Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojna

(RKVY) in collaboration with DDA, Ambala.

We are regularly having the meetings of

Progressive farmers, Kisan club farmers,

ex-trainees etc. in our campus.

We publish one new year volume in

colourful pages every year.

IVth Week of

August, 2014

1st week of

February,2015

The mobile numbers & e-mail addresses of all the SMSs

working under KVK, should be displayed at the entry of

the office and inside the office.

The success stories of small, marginal and progressive

farmers should be published regularly.

Impact study of trainings should be done to test its

success.

It has been displayed on the office board

for easy reference.

This year, we have sent success stories of

4 farmers to the ZPD Office. Earlier also,

we had sent success stories of at least 10

farmers and these have been published by

the ZPD office in the form of booklets

We are doing this continuously

2. Dr. J. N. Bhatia, Sr. DES (Plant Protection), KVK, Ambala (CCSHAU)

Uchani the Regional Centre of CCSHAU, Hisar has

released a variety of sugarcane namely CoH-160 which

is early maturing, red rot resistant & good for ratoon

ing. This variety should be selected for demonstration at

the KVK farm.

We have already booked the seeds from

Uchani for demonstration in this season.

3. Dr. C. L. Shukla, Retd. Disease Investigation Officer, KVK, Ambala (CCSHAU)

Cross breed & Indigenous breed, both are affected by

Mastitis disease. It should be kept in mind both by KVK

expert & farmers.

These information is given to farmers

during trainings and awareness camps.

3.2 17.2.14 1. Dr. S. S. Siwach, DEE & DR, CCSHAU, Hisar

Due to short duration of Punjab Pusa Basmati-1509, it

saves natural resources like water, fertilizer etc. So these

must be reflected in the presentation of result of OFTs &

Suggestions incorporated in the year 2014-15

FLDs.

The seeds of the wheat variety WH-1105 will be made

available in the next coming season. We could not

provide the seeds last year because of lesser availability

and miss-use of the seeds by the farmers specially breeder

seeds.

The farmers should give their names, address & mobile

nos. for getting messages related to weather forecasting.

2. Dr. O. P. Mehla, Sr. Disease Investigating Officer, LUVAS, Ambala

For colorful publication of Krishi Vigyan Patrika fund is

needed which may be arranged by writing an Official

letter to Director, Department of Agriculture, Haryana &

Deputy Director Agriculture, Ambala under RKVY.

The name of Lala Lajpat Rai University of Veterinary &

Animal Sciences (LUVAS) has been changed to LUVAS.

So this may be incorporated while reporting.

For SAC Meeting presentation should be made in Hindi

so that the farmers can understand easily.

Soil Testing Campaign should be organized.

OFTs should be conducted on Climate Resilient

Agriculture.

Happy Seeder is much in demand, so a Happy Seeder

Machine may be arranged with ZPD, Zone-I (ICAR).

3. Dr. Ajmer Singh, Senior Scientist (Agricultural Economics), Zonal Project Directorate, Zone-I (ICAR), Ludhiana

For publication of Krishi Vigyan Patrika in the colorful

pages, you can write a letter for funds under RKVY to

ZPD, Zone-I (ICAR), Ludhiana. He will arrange the funds

for this.

The contributor names in the presentation of success

stories may be given which are sent to the ZPD, Zone-I

(ICAR), Ludhiana.

OFTs & FLDs of the Animal Science and Plant Protection

may be given in the Action Plan of 2014-15even if the

post is vacant. When the SMSs of the respective subjects

will join, he will carry out the activities according to the

Sl.

No Date Major recommendations Status of action taken in brief

Tentative date of

2014-15

Action Plan approved.

The data on Vermi-compost like Production, Distribution

etc. may be presented in SAC Meeting.

The number of Participants should be given in the SAC

presentation while showing Extension Activities like

Field Days, Kisan Gosthis etc.

For calculation of B:C ratio, over age of 3 years sale price

of a particular crop (like Rice, Wheat, Sugarcane) should

be taken into account. The sale price of one season is not

enough to calculate B:C ratio.

Innovation should be published in a Journal or Magazine

for wider reach.

In the SAC Presentation, proposed FLDs, OFTs &

Trainings and achieved FLDs, OFTs & Trainings should

be shown.

4. Dr. Dalip Gosain, Programme Coordinator, NDRI, KVK, Karnal

The OFT on Pusa-1509 may be repeated in the next

season for the verification of yield results.

The duration of one day trainings should be increased

upto 3 days because one day training is not enough for

transfer of knowledge of a particular aspect.

5. Dr. J. N. Bhatia, KVK Ambala (CCSHAU)

In the OFTs of Pusa-1509 & PR-121, varietal evaluation

is the main theme, so problem diagnosed should be

related to the theme, not to the disease as given in the

presentation.

Big posters which are printed in English may be re-

printed in Hindi, so that the farmers can be benefitted.

6. Sh. Paramjeet Singh, Farmer, Ambala

In the SAC Meeting media should be invited.
