Bajra, also known as pearl millet, is a widely grown crop in Africa and Asia, especially in India. It is grown in areas with low rainfall and poor soils. India is the largest producer of bajra. It requires a temperature between 30-35°C and rainfall between 40-50cm. Bajra can be grown during the kharif, rabi, and summer seasons. Common varieties grown are BJ-104 and ICMV-221. Fertilizer doses of 50-100kg N, 30-40kg P2O5, and 20kg K2O per hectare are recommended. Bajra is harvested when grains are hard with 20% moisture.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Introduction to AI for Nonprofits with Tapp NetworkTechSoup
Dive into the world of AI! Experts Jon Hill and Tareq Monaur will guide you through AI's role in enhancing nonprofit websites and basic marketing strategies, making it easy to understand and apply.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

8. ORIGIN: Africa
■ Bajra is grown mostly in tropical climate.
■ It is widely grown in Africa and Asia. The important
Bajra growing countries are India, Pakistan, China and
South East Asia.
■ In India, except in west Bengal and Assam, it is grown
throughout the country.
■ It is generally grown in areas of low rainfall and in poor
soils. Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Gujarat, U.P and Haryana
account for 87% of the total area. About 78% of the
production comes from these states.
■ India is the largest producer of Bajra.
RVG
15. Temperature:-
■ The crop has wide adaptability as it may grow under different day lengths, temperatures
and moisture stress.
■ It has a high degree of resistance for drought.
■ Most of the varieties developed in India are photo-insensitive which permits in growing the
crop during Kharif, Rabi and summer seasons. The crop requires low annual rainfall ranging
between 40 to 50 cm and dry weather. The crop needs wet weather, light showers and bright
sunshine, at its grand growth stage.
■ There should be no rain at flowers as the pollens are washed off and fertilization is found
to be poor, while at maturity it needs fairly dry weather associated with bright sunny days.
■ The crop may tolerate drought but cannot withstand high rainfall of 900mm or above.
■ The best temperature for the growth and development of bajra is between 30oc and 35oc.
18. Land Preparation
■ The crop needs very fine tilth because the seeds
are very small.
■ It is essential to do the summer ploughing by
mould board plough and after the onset of
monsoon the field should be harrowed twice
(or) thrice or ploughed by country plough.
■ Care should be taken to remove all the weeds
and stubbles from the field and if possible the
field should be leveled and drains should be
provided in the field.
RVG
19. Sowing time:
■ Kharif: June -July
■ Rabi: Sept-Oct
■ Summer: First fortnight of January
■ Avoid late planting beyond July 15th (In case, sowing is delayed there is
a drastic reduction in yield due to more incidence of diseases like
downy mildew or ergot, restricted vegetative growth of the crop, high rate
of mortality and poor grain setting).
20. 4.0-5.0 kg/ ha (If sown by drilling)
2.5-3.0 kg/ha (If sown by dibbling method)
22. Seed treatment:
■ Seed purification can increase the percentage of sprouting, sturdiness, and
pest resistance.
■ Seed can be treated with cow urine, Jeevamrutham, Panchagavvya,
Biofertilizers and Amruthapani.
23. Method of Sowing:
•Broadcasting, Drilling, Dibbling and Transplanting.
Of these, Drilling is most popular. Thinning and gap filling should be done at 10-15 DAS.
Depth of Sowing: 2 to 3 cm
•Transplanting is done, in case, if sowings are delayed due to late onset of monsoon or heavy and continuous
rains at the time of sowing.
•Transplanting gives higher yields as compared to direct sowing.
•3-4 week old seedlings are planted @2/hill.
•Under South Indian conditions, summer bajra is usually grown by transplanting.
RVG
24. ■ Advantages of transplanting:
■ 1. Transplanted crop matures early and produce more tillers and ears due to
better growth.
■ 2. Gives Higher yields than direct seeding.
■ 3. Optimum plant population is ensured.
27. MANURES AND FERTILIZERS:
N P2O5 K2O/ha
■ Rainfed crop : 50 to60 - 30 - 20 kg/ha
■ Irrigated : 100 to 120 - 40 - 20 kg/ha
■ Half dose of nitrogen, full doses of phosphorus and potassium should be applied at the
time of sowing.
■ The remaining N is applied in 2 splits. Once at the time of thinning (3 to 4 weeks after
sowing) and the rest at ear formation stage.
28. Fertilizer in organic farming depends on the
following factors:
■ On nutrients such as those in the soil.
■ On the nutrients from the rain.
■ On top of the soil fertilizer.
■ Above ground microorganisms (nitrogen fixing bacteria, phosphorus, solubilizer bacteria,
potash solubilizer).
■ Depends on the nutrients sprayed on the crops.
■ 10 tonnes of cattle manure per acre in the last Tillage.
■ Spray the liquid Jeevamrutham once every 15 days.
■ Spray 3% Panchagavvya at the time of Crop Season twice or thrice.
■ 200kg of Ghaanajeevamrutham per acre twice or thrice.
RVG
29. WATER MANAGEMENT:
■ As Bajra is a rainfed crop, there is hardly any need for irrigation. Irrigate the crop if
there are no rains. Generally, two irrigations during the growing period of the crop are
enough.
■ If moisture is limiting, irrigation must be given at the time of ear head emergence
because it is the most critical stage for moisture stress.
■ Bajra does not tolerate water logging. So do not allow rain water to stand in the
field for more than few hours. Proper arrangement for draining the excess water
must be made.
■ Total water requirement is 450-550 mm and W.U.E. is 8.0 kg/ha.mm of water.
35. WEED CONTROL:
■ The damage due to weeds is severe during 3-5 weeks after sowing.
■ Intercultivations by hand hoe or wheel hoe should be done at 3-5 weeks after sowing.
■ However, sometimes due to unavailability of labour or soil being too wet to permit
manual wedding, timely weeding becomes difficult.
37. HARVESTING AND THRESHING:
■ Harvest the crop when grains become hard and contain about 20% moisture.
■ Harvesting is done by cutting the entire plant or removing the ear heads first
and cutting down the plants later on.
■ The ear heads after harvesting, should be dried in the sun.
■ The grains are separated either by beating the ear heads by sticks or by
trampling by bullocks.
■ The threshed grain should be cleaned and dried in sun to bring the moisture
content down to 12% for safe storage.
41. YIELD ATTRIBUTES:
1. Total number of tillers per unit area
2. Number of productive tillers per unit area
3. Length of the ear head
4. Number of filled grains per ear head
5. Test weight
46. Reasons for low yield of coarse cereals:
■ 1. Marginal lands are used for their production than other cereals.
■ 2. They are confined to small production units
■ 3. They are often grown as intercrops
■ 4. uncertain precipitation trends
■ 5. Limited commercial demand
