Heera - A high protein rice variety from CRRIThe Central Rice Research Institute (CRRI), Cuttack

developed an extra early, semi dwarf rice variety namedHeera (CR 544-1-2; IET 10973), which was released in 1988by the Orissa Subcommittee on Crop Standards, Notificationand Release of Varieties and by the Central Variety releaseCommittee in 1991 for rain fed uplands in the wet seasonand for irrigated fields in the dry season. It is an extra-earlyvariety. It matures in 68 to 70 days under direct seedingcondition in kharif with grain yield of 2.5-3.0 t/ha. It takesweek more, if transplanted or grown in Rabi season andyields 4.0 t/ha. Thus, the variety has very high per dayproductivity (56 kg/day), which is far higher compared toother rice varieties.

Considering the importance of rice for nutritional securityCRRI initiated a massive program to evaluate available ricevarieties and germplasm for grain protein and micronutrient content. It was revealed that the variety Heera is anexcellent source of vital nutrients such as protein, iron and zinc. It has long bold grains with brown hull and whitemilled kernel, which has 11.5% protein, 5 ppm of iron and 23 ppm of zinc. Its cooking quality is good and it hasintermediate amylose content. Hence, it is a promising variety for ensuring nutritional security in areas, where rice is astaple food. It has the potential for commercial cultivation as a nutrient dense specialty rice. Promotion of Heera in thestate of Odisha has been initiated this year by CRRI. Its multiplication has been taken up to enhance the seed availabilityfor the next year’s crop.

Up-scaling IPM technology for direct seeded rice in JharkhandMajor biotic stresses of direct seeded upland rice are weeds, brown spot and blast among diseases and gundhi bug

among insects. Keeping this in view, field demonstrations of IPM interventions, viz., seed dressing with Bavistin(carbendazim) @ 2 g/kg, direct seeding with zero-tillage seed-drill (seed rate - 65 kg/ha), spraying of butachlor as pre-emergence weedicide, and Nominee gold (bispyribac sodium) as post emergence weedicide, improved fertilizer applicationschedule (40:30:20; N:P:K), need based application of Tilt (propiconazole) @1 ml/L, Beam 75 (tricyclazole) @ 0.6 g/L andEndosulphan (edifenphos) @ 1.2 ml/L for managing brown spot, blast and gundhi bug, respectively, were taken up withshort duration (90-95 days) improved rice variety Anjali. The demonstrations were laid out in an area of 25 acres withIPM interventions and were compared with non IPM (farmers’ practice) control grown in 5 acres in villages Dhodi andBanha of district Chatra, Jharkhand during wet seasons of 2011 and 2012. Weed biomass in IPM plot was drasticallyreduced by 76% over control. Brown spot and gundhi bug infestations were recorded and respective need basedinterventions significantlyreduced infestations withconcomitant increase in grainyield to the tune of 46.5%. Theoverall benefit of IPMinterventions was successfullydemonstrated during 2011 and2012 in villages. Impactassessment conducted during2013 revealed that more than 50%farmers of the two villagesadopted the technology. Itsfurther dissemina-tion in thedistrict will be assessed during2014 wet season.

AMMI Stability Index for Stability AnalysisA new methodology for measuring a stability i.e. AMMI Stability Index (ASI) is proposed. According to Gauch and

Zobel (1996), most accurate model can be predicted using first two interaction principal component analysis axis.Hence, first two principal components have been used for the proposed methodology.

The formula for calculation AMMI Stability Index (ASI) is as follows:

( ) ( )[ ] ( ) ( )[ ]fsquarelainedsumoscorefsquarelainedsumoscore IPCAIPCAIPCAIPCAASI exp%2

exp%2 2211 ×+×=

where, scoreIPCA1 - First principal component score of interaction effect

scoreIPCA2 - Second principal component score of interaction effect

fsquarelainedsumoIPCA exp%1 - Percentage sum of squares explained by first principal component interaction effect

fsquarelainedsumoIPCA exp%2 - Percentage sum of squares explained by second principal component interaction effectThe proposed methodology has been used for finding out the stability of eighteen upland breeding lines evaluated in

four environments during 2002 to 2005. The genotypes along with yield, ASI and its ranking are given in the Table 2. Thetable shows that though GEN2 is low yielding genotype it is most stable followed by GEN7 and GEN 18. GEN5 is havingvery good yield potential but is most unstable among the genotypes used.

Experiment on host range of sheath blight pathogen

Yellow nut sedge (Cyperus esculentus),Bermuda grass(Cynodon dactylon), common crab grass (Digitariasanguinalis),viper grass (Dimbra retroflexa), jungle rice(Echinochloa colonum), cockspur grass (Echinochloaglabrescens) and hoorah grass (Fimbristylis miliacea) are afew of the weed flora prevalent in low land riceecosystem.To ascertain their role in perpetuation of ricesheath blight pathogen Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn, theseweed species were artificially inoculated with sheathblight pathogen. The pathogen produced typical sheathblight lesions in all seven weed species. Incubation periodof the pathogen in different weed species varied from 4 to6 days. Highest lesion length (33.2 mm) was recorded inD. sanguinalis which was followed by E. colonum (31.3mm) and E. glabrescens (30.2 mm). Whereas the lowestlesion length (4.4 mm) was observed in C. esculentus (Table3).

The El Nino effect in 2014The occurrence of El Niño during 2014 that might cause

poor rainfall in India and some other rice producingcountries in South-east Asia has been predicted byinternational weather agencies, namely, AustralianBureau of Meteorology, Asia Pacific Climate Centre, JapanAgency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology andthe US Climate Prediction Center. Warm waters offWestern coast of South America caused due to heatingduring El Nino, are expected to increase the sea surfacetemperatures above normal by 0.5°C. This in turn mightlead to formation of low pressure in Pacific Ocean anddiversion of flow of moist winds from the Indian Oceantowards the western coast of South America therebyreducing the amount of rainfall in Indian sub-continent.Such a phenomenon that emerges in cycles of 2 to 7 years,weakens the Asian monsoon and causes drought in North-west and Central India, and heavy rainfall in the North-east India. The timing and the strength of El Nino wouldbe crucial for Indian monsoon. It may not have a hugeimpact if the phenomenon matures towards the end ofrainy season. Based on data available since 1991, there is30% chance of a weak monsoon if El Nino occurs. Duringthe past 130 years, around 60% of all droughts in Indiahave coincided with El Nino.

The Australian Bureau of Meteorology in its update bymid-March has said that the factors that lead to an ElNino are now increasingly visible. The tropical PacificOcean subsurface has already warmed substantially. It islikely that sea surface is going to be warmed up in comingmonths. The US agency NOAA’s Climate PredictionCentre has also confirmed temperature anomaliesassociated with El Nino that increased since the end ofJanuary. The agency has predicted that there is a 50 percent chance of El Nino during summer or autumn thisyear. Indian Metrological Department (IMD) officials,taking a more cautious approach, are also saying aboutgrowing chances of El Nino in mid-2014. However, theIMD will come out with its official forecast during Aprilbased on evaluation of all the factors affecting themonsoon.

El Nino was one of the factors responsible for two ofIndia’s most severe monsoon failure in 2002 and 2009. Itresulted in reduction in the output of summer sown cropssuch as rice and sugar cane that pushed up food prices. In2009, the country received 27 per cent lower rainfallleading to 8 per cent less food grain production. Givenmore than 50% chance of El Niño starting in July this yearwhich is the crucial time for planting of rice, it willnegatively impact the main crop in India and some otherAsian countries like China, Indonesia, the Philippines,Thailand and Vietnam. If El Niño comes early to India,sugarcane cultivation will also be affected severely ashappened in 2009 when Indian sugar production wasreduced by 5 million tonnes.

current forecast of 6%. In addition, Consumer PriceInflation, with nearly 50% weight of agriculture-relatedarticles, will rise above the current forecast of 8% in 2014-15. However, the economic fallout may not be as bad asfeared, given that the country has substantial food grainin stock due to robust agricultural production in the pastfew years. The monsoon season that prolonged last yearand the rainfall in the winter season are expected toprovide residual moisture useful for the coming kharifsowing. Most of the reservoirs have adequate water stockto meet the increased demand for irrigation.

It is necessary to prepare a ‘Contingency Plan’ to dealwith the possible crisis. In shorter term, a set of measuresare to be taken which includes i) keeping ready sufficientquantity of short duration varieties of major crops and ii)issuing advisories specific to locations. The shorterduration varieties can be planted late if monsoon arriveslate. Besides shorter duration, drought tolerance trait isdesirable in these varieties. In case of rice, varieties likeVandana, Anjali, Shabhagidhan, CR Dhan 40, Annada,MTU 1010 and Khandagiri having early to early mediumduration are recommended. Among these, Vandana,Shabhagidhan and Khandagiri have drought toleranceand thus will tolerate rainfall deficiency during thecropping season. Dry direct seeding is recommended incase of insufficient rain that does not allow nursery raising,puddling and transplanting. In uplands, alternate cropslike green gram, black gram, horse gram, castor, sesame,groundnut, maize etc. can be raised in case of failure ofrice crop due to early drought or delayed arrival ofmonsoon. In areas where heavy rainfall is expected, bothcomplete submergence and water stagnation might occurparticularly in the North-eastern part of the country. Incase of flash flooding, submergence tolerant variety,namely, Swarna-sub 1 needs to be grown. This varietycan tolerate complete submergence up to 15 days.Varieties like Jalmani and Varshadhan are recommendedfor areas of waterlogging up to one metre height or evenmore. However, availability of sufficient quantity of seedsof these varieties is an issue that needs to be addressedwith systematic planning and execution. Agriculture ingeneral and rice cultivation in particular cannot besuccessful without irrigation water. Whether El Nino hitsbadly or not, the country has to have a long term plan tocreate irrigation infrastructure. Harvesting of water inrainy season, making use of excess river water that flowsinto ocean, joining of Indian rivers, elaborate efforts torecharge ground water etc. are some steps which need ourimmediate attention.
