Period: March2011 – October2011
Position: Unit Officer and Research Scientist, Agricultural Research Station, Sansoli
Duringthis period I have developed the farm of Sansoli and Nenpur. Make fertile land of Sansoli Farm by growing green manuring crop
Shun hemp. These farm land initially Gauchar,undulating,unlevel/sloppy and barren for a long time, the land was leveled through Bull Dozer
and tractor and filling the soils in low land area. Soil analysis of different scrapped plots has been carried out at University Soil Testing
Laboratory, Anand and applied plantnutrients in soils on soil testreport. I was the PI of Integrated FarmingSystem (RKVY) project at Sansoli ,
so I started the implementation of the Project. I have grown different crops at Sansoli and Nenpur farms to test the suitability of different
crops so that in future planningof crop production would be decided. Between 1985 and 2006,I have published,primarily aslead author, 20
research papers in research journal articles, 2 books and 3 bulletins (lead author in one). Over the same period I have made 6
recommendations of “Forage Production Technologies Recommended to Farming Communities” as lead author.
Period: December 2006 – March2011
Position: Research Scientist, I/C Associate Research Scientist, Horticulture at N. C. Farm, AAU,
Chharodi, Ahmedabad.
Handled large farm of 2250 acres land where 4 schemes were operated viz., N. C. Farm, of Kankrej cows, Diploma Agriculture
School,Jatropha Project and Mega Seed Projecton seed multiplication program. At Chharodi,I have to look farm and dairy management and

look to the activities of Diploma Agricultural Students. I have been given special task given by the Vice Chancellor to look the development of
Chharodi farm. I have taken up seed multiplication program of Rice, Wheat, Lucerne and Fenugreek. I have increased double income of
N.C.Farm, Chharodi of Rs.95.02 lakh in my tenure period (2006-07 and 2007-08) as compared to only Rs.47.64 lakh in past two years (2004-
05 and 2005-06). Increased soil fertility of Chharodi farm by soil application of gypsum @ 2.00 MT and 25 Kg ZnSO4 per hectare. The rice
productivity was increased to the tune of 44.2 % higher in 2007 as compared to the year 2006 due to reclamation of soil. Similarly, the milk
production enhanced 38 % during 2007 (75714 kg) as compared to 2006 (54272 kg). Chharodi farm have natural grass dominant of marvel
grass in a area of about 1600 acres. The bales of natural grass increased 24 % in the year 2007 as compared to 2006.
I continued as a Unit Officer at N. C. Farm, Anand and development of 5 newly ARS Farms viz., Sansoli, Nenpur, Mehmadavadana
Muvada, Meenavada and Khambholaj of AAU, Anand. The allotted land was Gauchar, undulating, sloppy and unfertile. This land converted
into cultivated by farm management usingplowing,harrowing,cultivating,levelingland usingBull Dozar, JCB machine and Tractors. Improve
soil fertility by green manure crops and addition of organic manures and fertilizers. I have prepared a project of “Development of Integrated
Farming System at Chharodi” under Stream-I for new projects under Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojna (R.K.V.Y.) for the year 2008-09. The total
outlay of the project was Rs. 471.20 lakh (47.12 million). This project was shifted from Chharodi to Sansoli as Chharodi farm was closed by
the Government for Tata Nano Project. I have purchased the farm equipments, office furniture and laboratory scientific instru ments as per
the sanction in the project. The seed production program of sorghum, rice, wheat, corn and green gram etc has been taken up and
distributed seeds to the farmers and co-operative societies.
Period: July1998 – December 2006
Position: Associate Research Scientist, Main Forage Research Station, Anand
Employer: Anand Agricultural University, Aannd
Field trials of nutrient managements were conducted on forage crops for forage production and quality evaluation. The treatment
wise of forage plant green samples of 500 grams of Plant Breeding, Agronomy and Soil Science and Plant Protection disciplines trials were
brought in the Forage Quality Evaluation laboratory and these samples were cut into small pieces with the manually chaff cutter and dried
under shadow. Afterwards these partial dried plant samples were put into oven at 75 C temperature for about 24 hours till constant weight
obtained. These samples were removed from the oven and weigh treatment wise and calculate dry matter content. These samples were
ground in Grinding Mill and estimated N content using Kjeldahls’ method and these N values multiplied by 6.25 gives CP %.The NDF content
was estimated using standard method. The HCN content of forage sorghum was estimated from green samples. The NO -N content, Oxalate
content and IVDMD content estimated from promising entries if forage crops which are in pipe lines or for specific trials where treatments
effectiveness required to be assessed.
I conducted 4 field trials on sorghum, maize and Lucerne on nutrient management and 2 trials were on multi -micronutrients on corn
and sorghum. Two trials each on effect of P and S on forage sorghum yield and quality in 2001 -03 and effect of different sources & levels of
S, Zn and B levels on seed production of Lucerne. These trials were repeated for 3 years & pooled statistical analysis carri ed out. The
chemical analysis of samples was also carried out. The economics analysis was also carried out for finding out the remunerative treatments.
These trials recommendations were presented in sub-committees meeting of Agronomy and Soil Science and in Joint AGRESCO meeting and
discussed and final approval. Afterwards, these recommendation finding were given to the Departments of Agriculture and Extension to
reach to the farmers’ door step. Soil samples analysis for land acquisition in Vadodara and Kheda districts for rehabilitation of Narmada
ousters for appraisal of the identified land for their suitabi lity to farming during 2000 to 2002.
Position: Assistant Research Scientist, Main Forage Research Station, Anand
Period: March1982 –July1998
I conducted 2 separate field trials on nutrient management on forage sorghum in rainy and summer season of 1986, 1987 and 1988.
Another one field trial was conducted on oats to study the response of forage oats to sowing dates and cutting management on grain
production during winter season of 1986-88. Pooled statistical analysis of 3 years results were carried out and worked out the economics
analysis to find out the remunerative treatments over control. These recommendations were approve as the procedure indicated earlier in
the period July1998–December 2006.Carried outchemical analysis of foragecrops trials of different disciplines for evaluating /effectiveness
of the treatments for quality and anti-quality and interpret the results and finally made recommendation to the farmers. I worked long
period of 25 years in forage crops and contributed significant work in forage crop production and quality. I had been analysi s of 1, 00,000
number of forage plant samples for dry matter and crude protein content. I had attended Group Meet/Work shop of fo rage crops at
different places of India in 25 years period.My three research papers has been accepted in the 18th World Congress of Soil Science, Frontiers
of Soil Science, Technology and the information of Age, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (USA), 20006 and presented 3 research papers,
Period: June 1977 – March1982
Position: Senior Research Assistant, Hill Millet Research Station, Dahod, Dist.Panchmahals
New Research Scheme sanctioned on “Strengthening Research In Hill Millet crops at Dahod” during 1977 and I was transferred with
promotion in this scheme as Senior Research Assistant. We have purchased farm implements, laboratory equipments, office furni ture and
hand tools etc for the use of conductingfield trials.Planned and execute field trials on Plant Breeding and Agronomy discipline of Hill Millet
Crops. Field layout of experiment, timely sowing of trials with recommended package of practices is necessary for success. I was recording
timely experimental observations. The experiment should be harvested timely and recorded weigh of produce and analysis the data and
interpretation of results. The soil science subject taught to the Diploma Agriculture School students at Dahod. I conducted lab to lab field

trials on riceand maizecrops at farmers’filed in different villages in tribal area of Dahod.Timely supplied inputof trials viz; seeds, fertilizers,
insecticides, fungicides etc was given to the farmers. We were periodically monitored the field trials at farmers’ field and advise them for
their problem. We got very good response of the farmers and they realize that newer technologies definitely increases crop productiv ity.
