A Study on Socio-economic Background Characteristics of Okra Growers in Western Uttar Pradesh, India Page: 01-06 Roop Kumar1 and R.N. Yadav2 (School of Agriculture, Lovely Professional University, Punjab1 and College of Agriculture, SVPUA & T, Modipuram Meerut, Uttar Pradesh2) The present study was conducted in the two district of Western Uttar Pradesh. The total sample size was of 160 farmers and ex-post-facto research design was used for this study. The data was collected with the help of pre-tested interview schedule. The results of this study revealed that most of the okra growers belonged to the lower middle age group, other backward classes, high school education, medium family size, null or less social participation, small dairy, small size of land holding. However, maximum farmers receive information from input dealers and their main occupation agriculture. While vegetable growers income is not so good or bad, their income more than 2 lakh rupees per year. Maximum farmer economic status is medium followed by high. Economic motivation was attempted this work, majority of the respondents (63.13%) were medium level of economic motivation, scientific orientation of the respondents (63.75%) were medium level of okra cultivation practices. |

Organic agriculture arose from the purposeful efforts of inspired people, who wanted to build the finest possible relationship between man and the land. The present study was conducted in Sirsa and Karnal districts of Haryana, with an objective to analyze the socio-economic profile of farmers and their adoption towards organic farming. The sample of 120 respondents was selected from a cluster of villages from two districts through systemic random sampling techniques. Analysis revealed that majority of respondents (53.20%) had organic land up to one hectare, 39.20 per cent had one two hectares of organic land and 7.50 per cent had two -four hectares of organic land. Majority of the respondents (70.80%) had annual income up to Rs.1.5 lakh. Rest 25 per cent and 4.20 per cent had annual income between Rs. 1.5-3 lakhs and above 3 lakhs from organic farming, respectively. 45 per cent of the organic farmers had medium level of adoption followed by low (40.80%) and high (14.20%) level of adoption of organic farming. |

Sangwan, and Seema (Department of Foods and Nutrition, I.C College of Home Science, CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar, Haryana) Biofortified pearl millet (BPM) varieties are a sustainable source of iron and zinc. The nutritional quality and household utilization of BPM can be further improved in combination with Amaranth Leaf Powder (ALP) which is asuperfood. The present study assessed the impact of addition of 5, 10, 15 and 20% of ALP on sensory, nutritional and storage quality of cake and biscuits of 4 types based on biofortified pearl millet (HHB-311). 100 per cent BPM products were kept as control. Protein, fat and fiber content of BPM flour samples were 12.05, 6.64 and 2.21 g 100g-1, respectively and that for ALP were 24.27, 4.79, 9.87 g 100g-1, respectively. Iron, zinc and calcium content of BPM flour was determined by AAS and values were 8.00, 4.29 and 53.28 and that of ALP were 12.40, 3.73 and 2689.78 mg 100g-1, respectively. The organoleptic acceptability scores for color, appearance, aroma, texture and taste of ALP incorporated (5, 10, 15, & 20 %) biscuits ranged from 7.31 to 8.17 (liked moderately) and that of cake was 7.31 to 7.65 (liked moderately to liked very much). Among all types of cake and biscuits, maximum overall acceptability scores were exhibited by products which contained 20% of ALP (Type IV). Nutritional analysis of value added biscuits and cake exhibited that they contained significantly higher amount of crude protein, crude fiber, iron, zinc and calcium than that of control. Biscuits (20% ALP) were stored in airtight plastic container at room temperature and they were organoleptically acceptable upt o 90 days of storage. The study opens up a new avenue for the utilization of amaranth leaf powder (up to 20 % level of substitution) along with BPM for development of value added baked products. |

Prevalence of anemia among children is a serious concern in India and increases the morbidity from infectious disease. One of the most vulnerable groups is children aged 6-59 months. The wellbeing of children not only depends on the health but also on the social, economic and development of any nation. The main cause of anemia can be attributed to iron but a number of other factors also affect the hemoglobin level in the body. A number of studies had focused on the prevalence and determinants of anemia among children in the age group 6-59 in south India. The northern part of south India has a very high prevalence of anemia among children. The purpose of the study is to see how the prevalence of anemia among children is distributed across social groups in all districts (developed & underdeveloped) of south India. There are 23 districts in South India comprising of Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, and Telangana. Though, the states are considered to be developed many of the districts are not uniformly developed. The study focuses on the prevalence of anemia in the districts of South India. |
