Achievements
  • To mitigate the problem of high spikelet sterility in late planted Sali rice, spraying of 0.4ppm boron at anthsis was found effective and recommended for all zones of Assam
  • Associated with developing 5 nos. Of high yielding rice varieties viz. Dhansiri, Dipholu and Manas for waterlogged conditions of Assam
  • Associated with developing 2 nos. Of high yielding medium duration rice varieties viz. Shraboni and Numali for double cropped areas
  • Application of silicon in the form of orthosilicic acid granules @20 kg/ha each at maximum tillering and at flowering is effective in improving plant growth, yield and increase the tolerance to both biotic (stem borer, leaf folder, grain discolouration, Blb etc) and abiotic (moisture stress) stresses in rice.
  • Associated with development of the long duration(150 days) rice variety,Patkai which has resistance to Bacterial Blight. The yield potential of the variety is 5.0 to 5.5 tons per hectare with medium slender grain.
  • Associated with development of the long duration(150 days) high yielding rice variety, Satapdi which has a yield potential of more than 6 ton/hac
