Success Stories

a) Title: UAS Serisuvarna technology for sustainable mulberry leaf and cocoon production in semi irrigated ecosystem b) Background Mulberry being a perennial crop nutrients get depleted in the soil and hence requires a continuous and adequate supply of nutrient through external source to soil to get sustained yield and quality of leaf. So balanced application of nutrients is essential for the growth and yield of mulberry along a with farmyard manure. Similarly, due to non adoption of soil and water conservation practices, soil erosion is leading to unfertile soil, water holding capacity of soil is also reducing which is directly affecting the leaf yield and quality. Nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium play on important role. They motivate various biochemical functions, adding to the growth, development and yield of foliage. further secondary and micro nutrients are indispensable for improving growth and yield of mulberry which also stimulates growth of silkworm and silk production. Deficiency of secondary and micronutrients leads to physiological disorders and reduction in yield and quality of mulberry leaves. Similarly, addition of FYM and green leaf manure improves soil texture, microbial activity and fertility of soil. In spite of known fact of significance of nutrition farmers are reluctant to apply recommended or balanced fertilizers as holdings are small and marginal ,added to that poor economic status of sericulture farmers resulting in production of poor quality of leaf in turn reflecting on silkworm growth and development. Further low soil fertility, soil erosion, low leaf yield and frequent silkworm crop failure is the present scenario. In this condition UAS Serisuvarna practices for semi irrigated and tail end command area mulberry garden is promising technology for sustainable mulberry leaf production inturn higher cocoon production. c) Interventions: Process/ Technology All the 20 trials were conducted in 5-6 years old V1 Mulberry gardens, where the yield was poor. The spacing adopted was 2ftX3ftX5ft. The observations on the type of soil ,pH, OC,and NPK were recorded prior to implementing the trial and after completion of the study. The UAS Serisuvarna Technology (UASST) was implemented along with the Recommended practices (RP)as check. The soil is red sandy loam, with neutral pH, low in organic carbon and medium in available phosphorus and potassium. The plantation was irrigated once in 8 days. The demonstration was laid on randomised complete block design with two treatments RP V/s UASST. UAS Serisuvarna technology includes (i) bunding mulberry garden across the slope; (ii) growing horsegram as an intercrop; (iii) making trenches or passing couper plough to make two feet width and one feet depth trenches in every alternative rows; (iv) incorporation of horsegram biomass and locally available green leaf into trenches, filling recommended FYM (20 tons/ year/ hectare) and tank silt as a second layer if available; (v) filling trenches by taking soil from either side of rows and making raised bed and using either side rows for irrigation; (vi) application of bio fertilizers (Azotobacter- 20kg/ha/year and PSB- 25kg/ha/year); (vii) application of recommended dose fertilizer (300:120:120 kg NPK/ha/yr based on the soil test and application of Zinc sulphate @8kg/ha. (viii) mulching raised beds by using locally available trash or any farm waste. It repeats 2 times per year. The Recommended practices includes 1)Application of recommended dose fertilizer (300:120:120 kg NPK/ha/yr. 2)application of bio fertilizers (Azotobacter- 20kg/ha/year and PSB25kg/ha/year) .3) Application of recommended FYM 20 tons/ year/ hectare. The above treatments were imposed after bottom pruning, yield assessment was done by harvesting the leaf from randomly selected plants and same was converted to leaf yield per hectare. The cocoon yield performance assessed through bio assay by feeding silk worm on leaf obtained by RP & USST separately and benefits cost ratio of cocoon production was also calculate d) Impact Table -1 Effect UAS Serisuvarna Technology on Mulberry leaf production in semi irrigated/ tail end command area Treatments No. of shoots/ plants No. of leaves / plant Leaf yield / plant T1 RP 14.67 329.07 491.61 T2 USST 15.93 354.50 564.63 F test * * * SEM Âą 1 0.130 0.444 10.805 CD@5% 0.401 1.368 33.303

Annual Progress Report of KVK Mandya 2010-11 The growth and yield parameters of V1 Mulberry differed significantly in all the harvesting between the Recommended practice (RP) and UAS Serisuvarna technology(UASST) practices . Significantly higher number of shoot per plant (15.93) and number of leaves per plant (354.50) recorded with UASST as compared to RP viz., 14.67 and 329.07 respectively. Similarly, UASST recorded significantly higher leaf yield per plant (564.63 g) and leaf yield /ha (6774kg/crop) as compared to RP viz., 491.61 g & 5899kg/crop/ha respectively.

Further, feeding worms with leaf obtained by imposing UASST recorded significantly higher 10 mature worm weight (39.83 g), single cocoon weight (1.97 g) and cocoon yield 100 dfls (76.86 kgs) as compared to recommended practices ie., 38.75 g, 1.93g and 73.40 kg respectively. Further ,the rearing silkworm on leaf obtained by UASST and selling cocoons fetched significantly higher grass return (Rs 9607/ 100 dfls), less cost of production (Rs. 3790 / 100 dfls) and higher net return (Rs. 5554.69 / 100 dfls) as compared to RP i.e Rs. 9230.30, 3934 and 5296.77 respectively. Similarly, B: C ratio is also higher with USST i.e 1.44 as compared to RP i.e 1.36.The less cost of production is because of cutdown on nitrogen application based on soil testing and also only two times intercultivation operations year which reducess cost of production.

The technology has resulted in 14.8 per cent higher mulberry leaf yield in turn rearing of additional 50 DFLs/ ha leading to generation of 40 mandays/ ha. 63
