Top Significant Contributions in the field of Agriculture Research
Among the many contributions, few top significant contributions are mentioned below which increased the yields and income to farmers of the state.
•Developed Critical levels of micronutrients for soils and crops in the state
•Standardized Micronutrient application doses to different crops in the state
•Boron deficiency was identified in coconut in Godavari districts, Photographs were taken and recommendations were given for rectification.
•Developed DRIS norms and indices for Mango, Guava, Sweet Orange, Maize and Rice crops to identify yield limiting nutrients.Soft ware was developed and with this yield limiting nutrients will be identified.
•Molybdenum deficiency was noted in acid soils of North Coastal area
•Zinc application doses were standardized for different cropping systems
•First Scientist to initiate study onHeavy metal contaminants in water-soil-plant-animal continuum due to pollution of Musi river around Hyderabad in India
•Different nutrient management practices for increasing the seed yield and oil output in castor under rain fed situation
•Zinc requirement for medicinal crops like Aswagandha.
•Reduction of recommended dose of 20 kg ZnSO4ac- to 15 kg with saving of 25% when a limited amount of 100-200 kg locally available organic source is incubated with ZnSO4 for one month before its application to rice crop
•Boron recommendation to crops like Cotton, Sunflower, Cauliflower and groundnut
•Standardisation of Zinc Sulphate (100kg ZnSO4 /ha) application to Hybrid rice.
•Mapping of Micronutrients(Zn, Cu, Fe&Mn) and S deficiency areas in the state
•Silica application to rice to increase N use efficiency, resistance to pests& diseases thereby increasing the yield
•During the term
