3 Major thrust at the centre 1.Evaluation and development of superior varieties for grain and fodder yield suited to deep and medium soil situations. 2. Collection, conservation and utilization of rabi sorghum genetic resources. 3. Screening and identification of resistant / tolerant sources and cost effective management practices for major pests and diseases of sorghum. 4. Development of cost effective adoptable agronomic management practices for higher grain and fodder yield 5. Assessing the adaptability of pre released sorghum genotypes for higher grain yield and fodder yield. 6.

15 Major achievements during Discipline: Agronomy Sl. No Target Achievement Shortfall 1R. Evaluation of 1) Application of 100% RDF - advanced Rabi recorded significantly sorghum genotypes to fertilizer levels higher growth and yield parameters 2. SPH 1805 was found significantly superior with respect to grain yield, fodder yield and returns per hectare and it was found on par with SPH 1801

16 Major achievements during Discipline: Agronomy Sl. No Target Achievement Shortfall 1R - (Physi) Preliminary evaluation of diverse germplasm for rabi adaptation traits Among the different genotypes (37 +3) SSRK recorded significantly higher grain yield. RSV 1345 recorded significantly lower grain yield as compared to other genotypes. Other genotypes which found promising are RSV-15-16, RSV 1785, BJV 125, SLV 181 and BJV 129

17 Major achievements during Discipline: Agronomy Sl. No Target Achievement Shortfall 3R. Optimization of Full package of practice (FPP) - production has recorded significantly factors under resource constraints (priority inputs in superior growth and yield parameters and returns per hectare Control (only improved hybrid - rabi sorghum) without any input) resulted in significantly lower growth and yield parameters Irrigation, fertilizer and weed control inputs are found as most yield limiting priority inputs followed by others.

18 Major achievements during Discipline: Agronomy Sl. No Target Achievement Shortfall 5R.
