“…The mean grain yield of wheat in conventional tillage yielded non significantly higher mean grain yield (44.76 qha -1 ) than that of the zero-tillage (44.0 qha -1 ) and it was due to the yield attributes did not vary significantly among the main plots (Table 1). This showed that wheat sown either in zero tillage or conventional tillage provided similar wheat yield (Jat et al, 2009). Among the different N management practices, Nutrient Expert tool (70% N) + remaining N as guided by Green Seeker recorded higher mean grain of 49.44 q ha -1 and was statistically at par with the mean grain yield of recorded from Nutrient Expert tool (45.24q -1 ) and intern were significantly superior to the mean grain yield obtained in other nutrient management practices.…”

“…Excessive tillage operation in conventional farming also has the negative environmental impacts such as soil erosion, groundwater pollution and atmosphere contamination. Jat et al, (2009) reported that direct seeding or zero tillage is alternative option, as the researchers suggested its wide applicability in many crops around the world and this technology has potential to allow saving in time, energy, water and labour during crop establishment. The major objective of the present investigation was to test whether Nutrient Expert tool or Greenseeker based N fertilizer management in wheat was appropriate under zero/conventional tillage for managing fertilizer N in irrigated wheat.…”

“…Wheat grains were harvested using the guide of15% moisture in grain, yellowing of spikelets and hard dough stage of grains [11]. Data were missing at random from one replication, one location and one year for genotypes "BAZ", "CSW-16", "CSW16", "CSW-18", and "DPW-621-50".…”

The objectives of the study were as follows: 1) to evaluate the GxExM for wheat genotypes; 2) to predict yield performance and identify high stable wheat genotypes in different management practices; and 3) to make genotype-specific management and high performing genotype recommendations within and across agro-ecological regions. A diverse set of twenty-one genotypes was evaluated over three years (2012, 2013 and 2014) under two levels of crop management practices (CT and ZT) across three agro-ecological regions (BR, MP and PB) of India in replicated trials. Data were analyzed with SASGxE and RGxE programs using SAS and R programming languages, respectively. Across and within a location(s), the pattern of GxExM and GxMxY interactions (respectively) among univariate and multivariate stability statistics, grouping of genotypes in divisive clusters and estimates (with a prediction interval) of genotype varied in management practice CT and ZT. Across locations, the genotypes "Munal" and "HD-2967" were the best performers and high stable in CT and ZT, respectively. Genotypes "HD-2824" and "DPW-621-50", and "Munal" may serve as diverse parents for developing high quality, climate smart, locally adapted genotypes for BR in CT and ZT, respectively. Genotypes "HD-2932", "BAZ" and "JW-3288", and "GW-322" and "HD-2967" are suitable for developing locally adapted stress tolerant genotypes for MP in management practices CT and ZT, respectively. Relatively small GxM and GxExM interactions in PB preclude in making definitive conclusions.

“…Conservation agriculture (CA) management technologies offer some solutions to the emerging challenges of climate change across the Ganges River basin, including Haryana, by maintaining soil fertility and water-holding capacity in conditions of unpredictable monsoons (Erenstein, Farooq, Malik, & Sharif, 2008;Gathala et al, 2011;Jat et al, 2009). Out-scaling (replication) of these relatively knowledge-intensive technologies and practices is more difficult than Green Revolution technologies (new seeds, fertilizers and irrigation).…”

Climate change creates widespread risks for food production. As climate impacts are often locally specific, it is imperative that large-scale initiatives to support smallholder farmers consider local priorities and integrate lessons from successful autonomous adaptation efforts. This article explores how large-scale programmes for smallholder adaptation to climate change might link effectively with community-led adaptation initiatives. Drawing on experiences in Bangladesh, Mozambique, Uganda and India, this article identifies key success factors and barriers for considering local priorities, capacities and lessons in large-scale adaptation programmes. It highlights the key roles of extension services and farmers' organizations as mechanisms for linking between national-level and community-level adaptation, and a range of other success factors which include participative and locally driven vulnerability assessments, tailoring of adaptation technologies to local contexts, mapping local institutions and working in partnership across institutions. Barriers include weak governance, gaps in the regulatory and policy environment, high opportunity costs, low literacy and underdeveloped markets. The article concludes that mainstreaming climate adaptation into large-scale agricultural initiatives requires not only integration of lessons from community-based adaptation, but also the building of inclusive governance to ensure smallholders can engage with those policies and processes affecting their vulnerability.
