A Note on the Cultivation of Sweet Potato with Special Reference to Northern Circars
Authors:   Agricultural Research Station Anakapalle 531001, A SANKARAM
Published: November 2023

In sweet potato (Ipomaca Batatas) one finds an effective combination of high nutritive value and ease in production under varied conditions of soil and clinate. Added to this its heavy yield makes its cultivation an attractive proposition. It is a dual purpose crop in that the tubers are used as food and vegetable and the green vine forms a palatable and nutritious fodder for cattle. The crop is a native of West Indies and Central America and is known to thrive best in a tropical climate. It is widely cultivated in this country and in Madras, special mention has to be made of Northern circars, West Coast, Tinnevelly, Coimbatore and Madura where its cultivation is well known. A Plea to increase its production and widen its use is warranted in view of the deficiency of food in our province. In what follows is embodied information on its cultivation and use as a food crop with special reference to its cultural methods in Northern Circars.
Observations on Deep Ploughing in the Black Soils of the Bellary District
Authors:   Dry Farming Development Officer, Agricultural Research Station Hagari, P KRISHNA RAO
Published: November 2023

In the black soil areas of the Bellary District, farmers do not as a rule plough their land very deep, except once in six or seven years. The conditions that influence the adoption of this practice at such long intervals are summarised below. Deep ploughing cannot be given in the heavy black soils of this tract as and when the cultivator likes but has to be done only between the months of December to March. The period is determined by the rainfall of the tract and the nature of the soil. The normal distribution of rainfall in the tract is as below.

A ratoon' can be defined as a crop allowed to grow in the same field from the roots of the previous cane crop without planting seed sets anew. That which immediately succeeds a planted crop is called the first retoon and these following in subsequent years are designated as 2nd, 3rd or 4th ratoon etc. Ratooning is an age-old practice in vogue in most of the sugarcane growing countries of the world. (11) Decreased cost of cultivation anc early maturity are two of the most important causes that influence a culti vator to ratoon cane. In some countries like Cuba, West Indies and Britisk Guiana, it is reported that even five to six ratoon crops are taken from the same field. (12) According to the Indian Sugar Committee report (1920) ratooning cane was rot common in this province except in the Cumbun tark area of the Kurnool district. (16) But the position is now changed anc almost all the cane-growing districts of this presidency grow ratoons. This paper reviews the experiments conducted in the province on thi practice, and discusses its effects on the physiology and economics c sugarcane cultivation. We have also indicated the future lines of wor that is desirable to follow in ratooning cane.

Accounts of special and peculiar agricultural practices prevailing in the different parts of the Madras Presidency were collected sometime back in the office of the Director of Agriculture. It is seen that these practices suit the local conditions that prevail in the different places, obviously as a result of centuries of experience. Many of them, no doubt, would be equally suitable for other places having similar conditions. With this end in view the following compilation has been made in the hope that it would be both informatory and useful. It has been attempted to group the practices under (1) Crops and (2) Cultivation practices, but there is a certain amount of un- avoidable overlapping on account of their close interdependance.

Published: November 2023

The storage of sorghum, without the grain being damaged by insects during storage, has been a problem with the cultivators, merchants and organisations dealing with sorghum either for food or for sowing purposes. Sometimes large quantities of grain are imported from other provinces and in a short time the grains get badly damaged by insects and the stock be- comes unfit for consumption. At the Agricultural Research Station, Hagari, (Bellary District-Madras Presidency) the need for storing about 10,000 lbs. of jonna grain (for seed purposes) for about 10 months, i. e from May 1944, the time of commencement of storing the harvested grain, to February 1945, the time of harvesting the next crop, was keenly felt, in the absence of naphthaleine or sulphur which are the usual preservatives at the station. Acorus powder was used to protect these grains and it was found to be very effective. The object of this short note is to bring to the notice of the public, cultivators, merchants and others interested in this problem, the results of a large scale experiment conducted at this station, on the storage of jonna grain with Acorus powder As new grain from the field is now coming on, the experiment has served its purpose.

Published: November 2023

Classed as one of the most popular vegetables of South India, the bhendi has appealed to the home and market gardener as a hardy plant adaptable to almost every part of the Province with the exception of the hills roughly above 4,000 feet from the mean sea level. Though primarily grown for its green fruits it is reported that fibre of a moderate quality can also be extracted from the plant, Although several varieties are under cultivation, information as to the suitability of variety to each region; and varietal peculiarities are yet to be known accurately. To gather some information on the present position and to assess the immediate problems for improvement a study was undertaken at the Agri- cultural College, College Orchards, Coimbatore towards the end 1 1942 The observations and data collected so far are given in this paper with the hope that the information presented will be of some value to the scienti- fic worker and to the large scale bhendi farmers whose attention towards the crop has been diverted in the wake of the stimulus given to vegetable cultivation under the present emergency period.
Some Preliminary Observations on the Effect of Drying the Sprouted Seed upon its Viability and Subsequent Plant Growth in Paddy
Authors:   Agricultural Research Institute,Coimbatore 641003, P UTTAMAN
Published: November 2023

Sprouted paddy seeds were dried in the kot sun for two to three days. This caused complete wilting of the young plumule and radicle, but the seed on regermination produced new shoots and roots (Fig. 1 & 2). The same thing happened also when the young plumule and radicle were partly or fully scissored or injured, under similar conditions.

The Importation of the Predator Beetles As it became evident that a control of the pest by mechanical or chemical means was neither econo mical nor efficient, it was decided to try the biological method, and ento- mologists of various countries where the Australian ladybird beetle was known to be existent either naturally or after introduction, viz., Ceylon, Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Java, South Africa, Kenya, Rhodesia and Egypt were addressed in April-June, 1928, request- ing supply of Vedalia beetles for fighting the Fluted Scale in this province. In addition, the Director, Imperial Institute of Entomology, London was approached with a request for arranging supply of live predator beetles from France or elsewhere. There was prompt response from many of these countries, but most of them expressed their inability to send an immediate supply owing to the scarcity of the scale and its predator, especially in the case of the countries of the Southern Hemisphere, where winter was then prevailing. It was not till May, 1929 that the first supplies of beetles were received, and after breeding and multiplying the scanty supply received the first batches of beetles could be liberated in infested areas only in August, 1929. Altogether three consignments of Vedalia beetles. were received from abroad, the first from South Africa, the second from California through the Farnham-Royal Parasite Laboratory (both in May, 1929) and the third from Egypt in January, 1930.
A cheap process of preparing charcoal for activated carbon
Authors:   Deputy Directore of Agriculture, Central Division Chittoor, M ANANDAN , K RAGUNATHA REDDY ,   Marketing Assitant, Chittoor
Published: November 2023

In the manufacture of activated carbon from paddy husk, as carried on at present, the ignition of the first char at high temperature is done in thick iron tubes about 4 ft. in length and 8 in. in diameter. These tubes, to make them fairly airtight, have to be provided with lids hinged to both ends. Such iron pipes at the present market rate will cost anything from Rs. 30 to Rs. 40 each and even at that high cost are not easily obtainable. As these iron pipes have to be subjected to very high temperature, each time a charge of carbon is ignited they get fire-eaten after 50 to 60 charges and have therefore, to be discarded, and new ones substituted. And for the ignition of carbon in such tubes under high temper ture it is also necessary to build elaborate and costly furnaces with brick ir-mud with the provision of iron gratings, ash pit, etc. To build a furnace of the kind designed by the Government Agricultural Chemist to take in three iron tubes of the dimensions mentioned above, it costs roughly Rs. 130. Because of such high cost and intricacy of building such furnaces, it is not possible for the majority of cane growers to prepare their own carbon to clarify their cane juice.

Mushrooms represent the spore-bearing (reproductive) portions of a group of fungi, coming above ground. The vegetative portion consisting of a system (or mycelium) of thread like branched structures called the 'spawn' remains underground. Mushrooms are of various shapes, sizes and colours. Some these are edible and can be made into delicious dishes. But there are many which are poisoncus and if any of these species are unwittingly consumed, it may lead to fatal consequences Edible mush- rooms are cultivated on a large scale in Europe and America Psalliota campestris is the species that is grown in most of these countries. The cultivation of this mushroom is a specialised art But this species grows only in cool places with temperature below 70°F As such it is not possible to grow this species on the plains districts of our province. In various parts of our province several species of mushrooms come up during the rains or in the cooler months (October-December). These are gathered and used by village folk or offered for sale. But these are avail- able only for a short period and only experienced people can differentiate between edible and poisonous mushrooms.
What's doing in All India - Madras

Published: November 2023

Madras is conducting a vigorous campaign to increase the production of food crops. To stimulate production, the Government granted a number of con- cessions to the cultivators and the Agricultural Department is doing intensive propaganda for growing crops by improved methods. In addition to meeting the farmers personally, agricultural officers arranged nearly 3,000 exhibitions and meetings. Propaganda is directed mainly towards (i) bringing new arens under food crops, (ii) adopting intensive methods of cultivation, and (iii) rédüc- ing the acreage under commercial crops and using the areas so saved for the growing of food.
Indigenous Dyes of the Madras Province
Authors:   Agricultural Research Institute,Coimbatore 641003, K CHERIAN JACOB
Published: November 2023

Dyeing is a very ancient industry and it is known that barbarians in emote ages painted their bodies with gay colours. It is difficult to decide as to which of the three countries, India, China and Egypt, was the first to learn the uses of vegetable dyes. Though India is one of the countries to originate the art, we have not gone far in improving it on scientific lines. The Westerners learnt the art from the East and step by step improved it to a fine degree in which their knowledge of chemistry was very helpful. With the first World War, aniline dyes, which are products of distillation of coal tar, replaced the vegetable dyes to a large extent. The advent of the Second World War has made the import of these dyes into India very klifficult. The plight of handloom weavers of this Province is very hard and very high prices are demanded for the artificial dyes. This is an opportune time to study and develop this industry not only by a study of the chemical processes and skilful combinations of colours but also by a search for new plants that may yield dyes. Most of the important indigen- ous dyes of this Province, with the local names and short descriptions of the plants from which they are extracted, mordants and uses of the dyes are given below. It is hoped that it will be of assistance to those who are interested in this ancient industry which is full of scope for development.
Cultivation as an aid to Soil Fertility
Authors:   Tamil Nadu Agricultural University Coimbatore  641 003, E BATCHELOR
Published: November 2023

Geological and astronomical-authorities place the age of our world at some- where between two and three thousand million years, and that of the consolida- tion of its crust at about two thousand million years. Since then the agents of disintegration and denudation-water, atmosphere, heat, cold, and frost and for some hundreds of millions of years, the roots of vegetation, together with rabbits, moles and earthworms-have, mainly through the solvent action of rain water. transformed the solid rock into sand and clay and transported these products. together with minerals in solution, into the rivers, sens and oceans. The geo- logical formations resulting therefrom after being raised above sea level, have repeatedly been subjected to the same processes of disintegration and denuda- tion. Observation in a railway cutting or quarry will frequently show slightly disintegrated rock at a depth of only a few feet below the surface. Above this the rock can be seen to be in progressive stages of disintegration until, ot the surface, the solid formation has been transformed into fine sand or clay and is ready for erosion by rain and surface flow into adjoining streams. What is now soil on the land surface was but a short time ago, as measured by the geo- logical clock, solid rock some feet below the surface. The rates of disintegra- tion and denudation are clearly interdependent and vary with climatic conditions.

In the Tanjore delta which has nearly a million acres unuer irrigated rice, the rice growers are in the habit of applying ammonium sulphate to their rice crop without the addition of any organic matter. This was particularly so during the post war boom period of 1919-1929, when paddy was selling at Rs 3 to Rs. 3-12-0 a kalam of 64 lb. Later on there were complaints that the yields of rice crop declined in fields that received ammonium sulphate. Invariably such statements were made by persons who applied a bag (80 lb.) of ammonium sulphate to one crop and stopped applying it to the following crop. It might be that the reduction in yield was the result of discontinuance of manuring. There was also no experimental evidence to declare that continued application of an artificial manure like ammonium sulphate really brought down the yield of rice. With a view to find out the effect of continued applications of ammonium. sulphate on the rice crop, the following experiment was designed and con- ducted at the Agricultural Research Station, Aduturai in the Tanjore district for a period of five years from 1935-36 to 1940-41.
A Brief Survey of the Palghat Tobacco Market
Authors:   Student Agricultural College, Coimbatore, P.A SRINIVASAN
Published: November 2023

Among the various uses to which tobacco is put to, chewing occupies a major place and 25 per cent of the area and production of tobacco in this province is under chewing varieties. It has been recently estimated that consumption of chewing tobacco is at the maximum in the States of Cochin and Travancore and in British Malabar. Palghat is the most important centre for the assembling and wholesale distribution of chewing tobacco grown in the Coimbatore and adjacent districts. The Palghat market buys outright the produce from these districts and processes them to meet the tastes of the West Coast consumers. The following is the result of an enquiry conducted at the Palghat tobacco market with the idea of studying the systems of assemblage, curing, trade and distribution from Palghat, and the scope for improvement in the system of marketing is suggested.
Soil Physics: Theory and Practice (Abstracted)
Authors:   Tamil Nadu Agricultural University Coimbatore  641 003, B. A Dr. KEEN
Published: November 2023

Agricutural science as we understand it today is a young growth. It is only in the past 25 years or so, that any considerable number of trained and competent scientists has been engaged in agricultural research, and with rare exceptions the agricultural laboratories have not celebrated a Golden Jubilee. The soil physicist was a relatively late arrival; there was no physicist on the Rothamsted staff until 1913. The primary contribution of physics to agricultural science is obviously in the study of the soil, its physical properties, the laws governing the retention, movement and loss of water, and the bearing of these laws on plant growth. The practical applications of this knowledge largely concern the operations and their effect on soil moisture and on plant growth. Those are the main subjects embraced in soil physics: theory and practice.
Some Plants Poisonous to Livestock
Authors:   Animal Nutrition Section, Imperial Veterinary Reserach Institute Izatnagar, KEHAR NARAIN DAS
Published: November 2023

Poisoning of livestock may be caused either by some of the flowerless plants such as fungi, lichens, etc., or by flowering plants such as the gramineae and leguminosae. This article deals with plants of the second group only, inasmuch as they are more extensively concerned with the poisoning of livestock. The history of poisoning by plants in India can be traced to the remote past. The earliest mention is to be found in the Rig Veda, which is one of the oldest repositories of human knowledge, while further details may be gleaned from the Charaka Samhita and the Shushruta Samhita. Although some poisonous plants are protected by an unpleasant odour. an acid or bitter teste, or by spines, the poisoning of animals by such plants is of common occurrence, in spite of the widespread belief that they are protected by some instinct against eating dange rous plants. The important contributory factors incidental to poisoning are: (1) the ingestion of wilted, frosted or defoliated plants during drought. (2) the scarcity of palutable fodder during winter und early spring, (3) fatigue in trans- port and draught animals, (4) lack of salt, (5) a depraved oppetite. (6) the fact that poisonous plants often grow in close association with palatable fodder. (7) the importation or transport of animals to new surroundings, and (8) the ingestion of poisonous plants along with bay.

Published: November 2023

Within applied linguistics and foreign language pedagogy, the role of emotions in language learning has been somewhat overshadowed. Addressing this oversight, our study focuses on psychological elements pertinent to English learning stages. We explore the interplay between academic perfectionism, self-efficacy, and language learning burnout. Survey data was collected from 263 English Department students at a university in Malang across the 2nd, 4th, and 6th semesters using structured questionnaires. Notably, while second-semester students showed no significant correlation among these variables, meaningful connections emerged for students in the fourth and sixth semesters. Analysis revealed that, though academic perfectionism plays a role, its impact on burnout is relatively minor compared to self-efficacy. There was a distinct correlation between academic self-efficacy and language learning burnout throughout the English program's progression, with a weaker relationship in the 2nd semester and a stronger one in the 4th and 6th semesters. The results underscore the need for an educational environment that champions growth over mere perfection. Prioritizing stress management, self-reflection, and goal setting is paramount. Furthermore, specialized support is vital to cater to students' shifting needs as they advance academically.

Teaching English as a foreign language presents unique challenges. This research delves into the hurdles faced by English Language Department students at Al-Mergib University, particularly in active participation during the learning process. The study also explores the pedagogical strategies employed by Al-Mergib University instructors, with a focus on communicative language teaching (CLT). Through an applied research approach, the root causes of these challenges and potential solutions are investigated. Data were gathered from five teachers and ten students to offer deeper insights. Findings indicate a mixed teaching approach in Libyan classrooms, while many educators utilize interactive methods such as collaborative learning, others remain reliant on traditional techniques. The results highlight the necessity for teachers to adapt their strategies in response to evolving student needs. A significant challenge for students was understanding lectures, often due to rapid speech and limited vocabulary exposure, hampering language and vocabulary development. The study underscores the importance of targeted teaching practices, fostering student collaboration, and creating a dynamic learning environment. Enhancing students' confidence in English is further facilitated by encouraging its use outside the classroom setting. This research holds valuable implications for language education, curriculum development, teacher training, and the advancement of efficacious English communication skills.
A Trans-Theoretical Model for Farmers’ perceived Usefulness of Digital Risk Management Tools – A Case Study from Germany
Authors: Block Julia B. , Michels Marius , Mußhoff Oliver
Published: November 2023

Digital risk management tools (RMTs) are promising to help farmers manage risk. However, these recently developed tools are still unexplored and hardly used by farmers. This study is the first to investigate how German farmers perceive the usefulness of digital RMTs and which factors influence them. A novel modification of the trans-theoretical model was made to determine farmers’ perceived usefulness gradually. The regression results show that, on average, farmers perceive digital RMTs as potentially useful. Perceptions are positively influenced by a higher level of education, full-time employment on the farm, use of mobile devices and a higher perceived importance of digital tools. The study contributes to the literature by investigating the extent to which farmers are willing to accept the combination of digitisation and risk management. The results are of interest to policy makers involved in digital agriculture and to agricultural tool providers, as they offer first insights into farmers’ acceptance of digital RMTs. Researchers benefit from the successfully applied trans-theoretical model fitting.
Use Cases of the Integrated Administration and Control System’s Plot-Level Data: Protocol and Pilot Analysis for a Systematic Mapping Review
Authors: Leonhardt Heidi , Hüttel Silke , Lakes Tobia , Wesemeyer Maximilian , Wolff Saskia
Published: November 2023

In recent years, land use data from the EU’s Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS) have become increasingly available for research purposes. IACS data contain annual plot-level information on cultivation and location of the land farmed by agricultural beneficiaries, covering the majority of farmland in the EU. The data thus provide information on land use that is spatially and temporally highly disaggregated. Researchers from a broad range of disciplines already rely on IACS data for various applications and EU member states must make an anonymised, geospatially-referenced version of the data publicly available in the future. However, there is no complete and structured overview of the data’s use, their benefits and limitations that future research could rely on. This calls for conducting a systematic review of the applications of IACS plot-level data in scientific literature. Preparing the ground for such a review, this paper presents a review protocol for identifying and analysing publications using plot-level IACS data from Austria, Czechia, France, Germany, and Sweden in a systematic map. To test and refine the protocol and to illustrate the planned review, we conduct a pilot analysis of 12 selected academic publications and present the results. The pilot analysis demonstrates that the review protocol is adequate and that novel insights will be gained by mapping out the already existing work that uses IACS data.

Effects of Artemisia dracunculus L. and Origanum majorana L. Extracts Added in Different Concentrations on Some Possible Foodborne Pathogenic Bacteria in Hamburger Patties
Authors: AKARCA Gökhan , CERAN Nurşah
Published: November 2023

In this study, the antibacterial effects of distinct concentrations of Origanum majorana L. and Artemisia dracunculus L. extracts added to the formulation of hamburger patties on four different foodborne pathogenic bacteria named Gram positive (Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytegenes) and Gram negative (Salmonella Typhimurium, Escherichia coli), which are the most ones isolated from hamburger patties, were researched. Besides, the use of natural preservatives in conjunction with the additional extracts was also explored to see if the microbiological reliability of hamburger patties could be guaranteed. According to the findings of the research, Origanum majorana L. and Artemisia dracunculus L. extracts were found to have strong antibacterial effects on Gr (+) and Gr (-) pathogenic bacteria inoculated into hamburger patties, and it was discovered that they inhibited at various rates. The antibacterial impact found by the study turned out to be greater on Gr (+) bacteria as compared to Gr (-) bacteria. It was also verified that 2% Artemisia dracunculus L. extract provided the highest antibacterial effect on Listeria monocytegenes with a decrease of 3.38 log cfu/g. Furthermore, it became apparent that the antibacterial impact grew in direct proportion to the concentration applied to the extracts employed, and that the antibacterial effect generated by the Artemisia dracunculus L. extract was stronger and more potent than the Origanum majorana L. extract.

Pengelolaan sampah yang baik merupakan hal yang sangat penting. Namun faktanya kesadaran masayarakat akan hal ini masih sangat rendah. Ini menyebabkan perilaku masyarakat yang terbiasa membuang sampah di ruang-ruang publik, seperti taman dan lapangan (alun-alun) kota. Salah satu sampah yang sangat umum ditemukan adalah sampah sisa makanan. Oleh karena itu, kegiatan PKM ini dilakukan dengan tujuan memberikan teladan dan membangun kesadaran masyakat Kota Langsa agar tidak membuang sampah sisa makanan di Lapangan Merdeka Kota Langsa, khususnya ke dalam parit (aliran air). Metode yang digunakan adalah Service Learning (SL) dalam bentuk kampanye dan gotong royong oleh mahasiswa dan dosen pengampu mata kuliah. Kampanye dan gotong royong dilakukan sebanyak 9 (sembilan) hari di Lapangan Merdeka Kota Langsa, Aceh. Hasil langsung dari kegiatan ini adalah Lapangan Kota Langsa yang bebas dari sampah sisa makanan, khususnya di dalam parit. Selain itu, perubahan perilaku masyarakat yang mengunjungi Lapangan Merdeka Kota Langsa juga terlihat pada hari kedelapan dimana masyarakat sudah dengan sadar mau memasukkan sampah sisa makanan mereka masing-masing ke dalam tong/kantong sampah yang disediakan tim PKM. Hasil dari kegiatan ini, terutama perubahan perilaku masyarakat ini sangat penting. Namun, masih membutuhkan kampanye yang panjang untuk membuat perubahan ini menjadi sebuah kebiasaan baik dalam masyarakat.
