“…Different authors claim the introduction of this invasive alien species in Indian regions differently. As per Reddy (1978), the species was initially introduced in 1877 in the Cuddapah district of Andhra Pradesh while Rawat et al (1992) reported it first introduced in 1875 in Punjab, and Gupta and Blara (1972) reported it to be in 1857 from Mexico. Though it was introduced in Gujarat around 1940, in Banni P. juliflora was introduced in the 1960s to check the salinity intrusion towards the grassland from the Great Rann of Kachchh (Kumar et al, 2015).…”

Prosopis juliflora is one among the top hundred recognized invasive species worldwide. The synergized effect of arid climatic conditionsand inherent soil salinity channeled this species’s intentional introduction in Banni grassland. Due to the allelopathic effect of this speciesthe existence of native grass species is in danger. However, in recent years, P. juliflora has replaced many of the native vegetation andis being recognized as an important species for the ecological stability of Banni grassland. Several ecologists have studied the role ofthis species in stabilizing the grassland ecosystem. In the present paper, its economic role is broadly reviewed with the vegetationcover maintained by it. In Banni grassland, the grass species grow only in monsoon and persists few months. For rest of the year (i.e. insummer) the green cover is maintained by P. juliflora. However, this species has provided remarkable livelihood opportunities. Apartfrom counting the negative effects, the counter-positive effects of the species have been recognized through this paper. P. juliflora hasslowly transformed the Banni grassland into woodland. It has also altered the micro-diversity in the soil and ultimately transformedthe whole ecosystem into new regimes. Eradication and reversion of P. juliflora spread is rather impossible. Hence, the managementaspects of P. juliflora that need to maximize its positive features are discussed.

“…It has been reported that the water saving is lower in SRI method of cultivation than that of conventional transplanting method where standing water is maintained in the field. Significant yield responses to applied N were observed in almost all types of soils (De Datta et al, 1988) [8] and there are reports that irrigated dry / aerobic rice responds to nitrogen application up to 100, 150 (Reddy et al, 1993 andMaheswari et al, 2007) [13,12] , 180 (Ghobrial, 1983) [9] and 200 (Venugopal, 2005) kg N ha -1 . In an experiment on sandy loam soil at Warangal, there was significant increase in grain yield with increase in N level from 60 to 90 and 90 to 150 kg N ha -1 .…”

An experiment was conducted during kharif, 2010 at the College Farm, Prof.jayashanakar Telangana State Agril.University (Formerly Acharya N.G.Ranga Agril.University), Rajendranagar, Hyderabad to evaluate different rice production technologies in order to assess the rice water productivity and water input under different methods of establishment. The treatments consisted of four methods of rice establishment -aerobic rice on raised beds with drip fertigation, aerobic rice on flat beds with surface irrigation, System of Rice Intensification (SRI) and transplanted low land rice (conventional method) as main plots and three levels of Nitrogen (100, 150 and 200 kg N ha -1 ) in subplots. The grain yield obtained with transplanted low land and SRI methods of rice cultivation was comparable (nonsignificant) and significantly higher than that of aerobic rice grown either on raised beds with drip fertigation or on flat beds with surface irrigation. Among N levels -the grain yield obtained with 100 kg N ha -1 was comparable with that of 150 kg N ha -1 and significantly lower than that of 200 kg N ha -1 . The results indicated that the aerobic rice grown either on raised beds or on flat beds has consumed less quantity of irrigation water as compared to SRI and conventional transplanted low land rice. The water productivity was higher in SRI followed by aerobic rice sown on raised beds. The lowest water productivity was observed in conventional transplanted low land rice.
