“…Rice threshers, which separate the grain from the straw, offer desirable characteristics to take advantage of the excess energy available. Farmers with small farms tend to not have sophisticated combined harvesters, which are machines that can be used for both harvesting and threshing rice . Prior studies have investigated solar-powered threshers, , which are commercially available and can benefit farmers in the hilly regions of the state, where combined harvesters are challenging to use.…”

“…Vagaries of monsoon and prolonged dry spells affect crop growth and yield an d sign ificantly in D harw ad region o f Efficiency of Factor Productivity and Effect of Individual Input of Production on Growth, Yield and Economics of Soybean.... Karnataka. Even under normal rainfall situation crop failures are occurring due to moisture stress due to occurrence of dry spells occurred particularly during critical crop growth stages (Verma et al, 2018). For sustainable production, suitable in-situ conservation practices may ensure higher productivity by saving the crops during limiting and non-limiting moisture condition through safe disposal of runoff or its retention for profile moisture as and when required.…”

Background: In the face of limited resources and changing climatic conditions, a major challenge for agriculturists is to ensure food security while addressing the issue of an ever-growing population. In India, the average productivity of soybean is low as compared to world average due to lack of improved agronomic practices, less importance and mostly grown under rain-fed condition. To bridge this gap, factors of production determining the per-unit production plays a crucial role in crop production. Therefore, in order to identify/evaluate the partial factor productivity and their contribution for better crop growth and individual input use efficiency study was undertaken. Methods: The field experiments were conducted during Kharif 2020, 2021 and 2022 in Randomized Block Design with seven crop management practices. To know the efficiency of individual crop management practices on growth, yield parameters, yield, economics and output efficiency in terms of partial factor productivity and agronomy efficiency of applied nutrients. Result: Three-year results concluded that, soybean grown with full package recorded significantly higher seed yield (2277 kg ha-1) over full package excluding weed management (1889 kg ha-1) and full package excluding RDF (2023 kg ha-1). The yield gap was higher with omission of weed management (388 kg ha-1) and omission of RDF (254 kg ha-1). Further, net returns and crop out-put efficiency in terms of partial factor productivity and agronomic efficiency was higher with full package over the omission of the practice. Thus it can be concluded that, for achieving higher productivity, profitability and agronomic efficiency of applied nutrients under full package comprising all crop management practices can be adopted over the years in Northern Transition Zone of Karnataka.
