A Comparative Study on the Effect of Organics and Inorganics on Agronomic Attributes of Paddy
Abstract: A field study was conducted to evaluate different organic practices on growth and yield parameters of paddy. Treatment which was supplemented with inorganic practice (farmer’s practice) and was kept as control was recorded significantly highest plant height and number of tillers over other treatments at different critical stages, followed by the treatment which was supplemented with FYM (farm yard manure) at 10 t/ha + Green manure (Glyricidia) at 5 t/ha …

Comparative evaluation of improved ‘Modified Microscopic Test’ with traditional microscopy, indigenous ELISA kit, fecal and blood PCR for the diagnosis of Mycobacterium avium subs paratuberculosis in goat herd endemic for Johne’s disease
Abstract: Presently available tests for the diagnosis of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) infection were frequently used by several laboratories in developed countries, however, low income countries further required a test of affordable price or cost for small ruminants. Therefore, in present study five test, ‘Hexadecyl Pyridinium Chloride (HPC) processed fecal microscopic’ test (test 2), traditional microscopy (test 1), ‘indigenous ELISA kit’ (test 5) and ‘fecal IS900 PCR (test 3) and …

Quality Assessment of Vermicompost
Abstract: Present study deals with quality assessment of Vermicompost on the basis of physical and chemical profiles made of three different types of earthworms viz. Eisenia foetida, Eudrilus eugeniae, Perionyx excavatus. Quality of Vermiculture was done in different mixtures of Cowdung with Paddy straw, Sugarcane thrash, Weed biomass, Eichornia, Vegetable waste and Control. The rate of vermiculture was found maximum in case of VMC5 as E.eugeniae recorded as most efficient vermicomposting …
