  1. National Conference on Agriculture for Rabi Campaign, 2014 Department of Agriculture, Rajasthan Group-IV Strategy for Enhance Oilseeds and Pulses Production

  2. Rajasthan Climate Rainfall Cms Temperature : Celsius State Average Rainfall : 56 cms. Range: 15-90 cms

  4. Land Use Pattern (2010-11) Total Land:342.7 lac Ha. Forest 27 lac Ha. Not Available for Cultivation 43 lac Ha. Pastures & Grazing Land 17 lac Ha. Land Under Misc. trees 0.21 lac Ha. Net Cropped Area 183 lac Ha. Cultivable Waste Land 42 lac Ha. Fallow Land 30 lac Ha. Source- Directorate of Economics & Statistics, Raj.

  5. Main Features Largest state covering 10.5% of geographical area 5.5% population of the country 2/3 population depends on agriculture 10% animal population of the country Only 1% of water resources of the country 83% of available water used for irrigation 35% of cropped area irrigated 70% area irrigated through wells & tube-wells 27% irrigated through canals 10.6 Lac ha saline and sodic soils

  6. Mustard Rank in India : I Area: 25.00 Lac Ha. Production: 29.7 Lac Tonnes Rajasthan 44 % Share

  7. Soybean Rank in India : III Area: 9.0 Lac Ha. Production: 13.9 Lac Tonnes Production 11.28 % Share

  8. Area coverage Oilseeds Lac ha.

  9. Production Oilseeds Lac MT.

  10. Productivity Oilseeds Kg per ha.

  11. Existing ScenarioTotal Oilseeds: 2013-14 Rajasthan

  12. Oilseeds Seed Replacement Rate : SRR-%

  13. Rapeseed & Mustard Constraints in the production of Rapeseed Mustard (a) Non-availability of seeds of pests (Painted bug, Saw fly, Aphid) and disease(Powder Mildew, White Rust, Alterneria Blight) resistant varieties . (b) Proper method to control Orobanchae . (c) Lack of Short duration and Frost tolerant varieties . (d) Lack of stem rot tolerant varieties . (e) Effective method of weed control in rainfed farming (f ) Saline & Alkaline resistance Varieties

  14. Soybean Constraints of Soybean Production • Low Seed Replacement Rate • Germination loss during transportation • Seed rates are too low to optimize yield • Ineffective weed management • Biotic Stress • Abiotic Stress

  15. Sesame Constraintsin the production of Sesame • • Availability of quality seed materials for sowing:Low seed replacement rate as 20.70% (2013-14) • • Low yield • • Pest and diseases • • Lack of awareness of suitable management practices to ensure good yield • • High yield variation within the field • • Labour availability • • Vagaries of nature • • Lack of good returns from sale Low productivity-307 kg/ha

  16. Groundnut Constraintsin the production of Groundnut • Low SRR • Unavailability of quality seed • Insect-pest infestation- White garb • Disease pressure- Tikka Disease • Moisture stress at Critical Stages

  17. Rapeseed & Mustard Strategiesfor increasing area, production & productivity 1- Use of quality seed (C/S) to increase S.R.R. 2- Popularizing IPM & INM through demonstrations. 3- Introduction of inter cropping in Mustard with Gram. 4- Intensification of use of Gypsum in Mustard. 5- Adoption of dryland crop production technology. 6- Mustard centered production programme. 7- Shifting area of low producing cereals

  18. Soybean Strategiesfor increasing area, production & productivity • Increase SRR • Use of quality seed of recommended varieties • Balanced fertilizer application • Seed treatment • Use of recommended cultural practices • Introduction of insect resistant varieties. • Effective Weed management • Management of embryo damage for high germination

  19. Sesame Strategiesfor increasing area, production & productivity • Development of high yielding and disease resistant varieties • Use good quality seed of recommended variety. • Sow at appropriate time with proper spacing and maintain population by thinning • Select well levelled field and provide good drainage. Prepare a fine seed bed free from clods. • Apply recommended dose of fertilizers at appropriate time and foliar spray of 2 % urea, DAP at flowering and capsule development stage. • Keep the field weed free, particularly up to 40 days after sowing. • Apply irrigation at critical stages for rabi-summer crop and provide protective irrigation wherever possible during kharif. • Treat the seed with fungicide/bactericide as recommended. • Adopt need based plant protection measures against insect pests and diseases.

  20. Groudnut Strategiesfor increasing area, production & productivity • Adopting proper crop rotation practices • Sow good quality and disease-free seed • Avoid damage to the seed testa during shelling, sowing, and deep placement of seed at sowing. • Seed treatment • Mulching the soil surface in between rows • Intercropping practice • Integrated Pest Management- use of Pheromone traps , Light traps

  26. Total Pulses * First advance estimate

  27. pulses Seed Replacement Rate : SRR-%

  28. pulses Constraints Productivity of pulses is low because it is grown on marginal and sub-marginal lands under rainfed / un-irrigated conditions. Rains during later stage deteriorate quality and create problem in harvesting of crop. Inadequate availability of quality seed of improved varieties. Inadequate and imbalanced use of nutrients. Moisture stress during long dry spell and inadequate rains. Incidence of insect-pests, diseases and weeds. Damages by Blue bull and losses during threshing and post harvest storage.

  29. pulses Strategy of Improving Pulses Productivity and Production Increase availability of quality seed of high yielding and short duration varieties. Development of new short duration and high yielding varieties. Promotion of Seed treatment. Popularization of Soil Health Card for Balance application of fertilizers. Promotion of gypsum and micronutrients application. Timely availability of inputs. Popularization of Integrated Pest Management for the control of pest and diseases. Promotion of efficient water application methods for additional area coverage under irrigation. Minimization of post harvest losses of grains. Transfer of technical knowledge to the farmers through different training programmes. Increase in area through Inter cropping.
