A total 29 farmers of 11 villages of Sikar were identified to carry out the study. All 29 farmers were supplied improved variety of fenugreek along with organic input viz. Trichoderma, FYM and botanicals/neem oil. After harvesting and threshing of fenugreek every year, yield data was recorded from each farmer fields. As per comparison of yield data between FLDs of organic farming and farmers/traditional practice it was reported that the mean yield of FLDs of organic farming of fenugreek was 6.25, 7.41 and 18.94% higher in comparison to farmers/traditional practice during 2019-20, 2020-21 and 2021-22 respectively. Farmers were satisfied with yield and visual quality of fenugreek seed harvested under organic farming and willing to continue organic farming in fenugreek. Therefore, organic farming in fenugreek could be widely promoted in Sikar district of Rajasthan to achieve sustainable development goals.

They are "High value and low volume crops" and considered cash crops for the growers of arid and semiarid regions of India. Coriander, fenugreek and nigella are grown during the rabi season and take hardly 130-140 days to attain full maturity. In this context, farmers are not able to develop income from available arable land round the year, even though they have sufficient resources as well as manpower. Therefore, coriander, fenugreek and nigella-based cropping systems, four of each (total 12) were evaluated during 3 consecutive years (2019-20 to 2021-22) for their productivity, resource-use efficiency, economics and soil fertility. The results showed that among the seed spices-based cropping systems, maximum system productivity (5193 kg ha -1 ), production efficiency (18.81 kg ha -1 day -1 ), water-use efficiency (2.31 kg ha -1 mm -1 ), economic efficiency (11.85 US $ ha -1 day -1 ), net return (3270 US $ ha -1 ), benefit:cost ratio (3.27) and available N (165.6 kg ha -1 ) were observed under nigella-green coriander-mungbean cropping system. Hence, seed spices growers are recommended to adopt nigella-green coriander-mungbean cropping system in order to realize better productivity, resource-use efficiency, soil fertility and profitability.

The experiment was laid out according to factorial randomized block design with three replications. The experiment comprised four fertility levels of (control, 50% RDF, 75% RDF, and 100 % RDF) and four biofertiliizers levels (control, PSB, Rhizobium and Rhizobium + PSB) were applied to the black gram var.T-9. The application of 100 % RDF and seed inoculation with Rhizobium + PSB or combination significantly increased the organic carbon, available N, P 2 O 5 , K 2 O, Cu, Zn, Fe and Mn content in soil. However, bulk density, particle density, porosity, Ec and pH was found non significant after harvesting of the crop due to above properties don't change in one cropping season.

To overcome this, inclusion of annual pulse crops such as cluster beans (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L.) in cropping systems is an alternative technique for enhancing output while minimising environmental impact. Therefore, to assess the influence of different crop production systems on yield, quality and soil fertility attributes of fennel (Foeniculum vulgare L.)-cluster bean (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L.) crop sequence, a long term field experiment was conducted. Methods: A field experiment was conducted on fennel (Foeniculum vulgare L.) cluster bean (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L.) crop sequence under AI-NPOF Project during 2016-17 to 2020-21 at ICAR-National Research Centre on Seed Spices, Ajmer (Rajasthan), India.

Therefore, there is an urgent need to achieve better nutrient dynamics and sustainable production by selecting more nutrient-responsive cultivars using efficient nutrient management. The present experiment aimed to enhance crop productivity, seed quality, nutrient efficiency, and soil nutrient dynamics through efficient nutrient management under different lentil cultivars. The experiment was laid out in a split-plot design, assigning three cultivars (viz. Sapna, Garima, and HM-1) in the main plots and ten nutrient management practices in the sub-plots, replicating them thrice. Results revealed that cultivar HM-1 recorded significantly higher seed yield (1.59–1.61 Mg ha-1) and the uptake of N (67.2–67.6 kg ha-1), P (6.8–7.0 kg ha-1), K (13.8–13.9 kg ha-1), Zn (60.4–61.1 g ha-1), and Fe (162.5–165.2 g ha-1) in seed compared to Sapna and Garima.

The global pulse area, production, and average productivity increased from 1961 to 2020 (60 years). Pulses are usually grown under rainfed, highly unstable, and complex production environments, with substantial variability in soil and environmental factors, high year-to-year output variability, and variation in soil moisture. Since the last six decades, there is not much satisfactory improvement in the yield of pulses because of their cultivation in harsh environments, coupled with their continuous ignorance of the farmers and governments in policy planning. As a result, the global food supplies through pulses remained negligible and amounted to merely ~1.0% of the total food supply and 1.2% of the vegan food system. In this situation, protein-rich food is still a question raised at the global leve...

As an exhaustive crop, sugarcane removes a huge amount of plant nutrients from the soil. However, the combined use of organic and inorganic fertilizers can be a good approach to deal with nutrient depletion and promote sustainable crop production as well as improve soil health. Therefore, an attempt was made to identify the most fruitful and profitable integrated nutrient management on the aspects of growth, yield and quality of sugarcane in two consecutive growing seasons.

Thus, biofortification of staple food crops enriched with micronutrients is a more sustainable option for providing nutritional supplements and managing malnutrition in a society. Since 2001, when the concept of biofortification came to light, different research activities have been carried out, like the development of target populations, breeding or genetic engineering, and the release of biofortified cultivars, in addition to conducting nutritional efficacy trials and delivery plan development. Although, being a cost-effective intervention, it still faces many challenges, like easy accessibility of biofortified cultivars, stakeholders’ acceptance, and the availability of biofortified germplasm in the public domain, which varies from region to region. Hence, this review is focused on...
