In the indogangetic plains of India it is increasingly felt that the use efficiency of inputs is getting decreased at an alarming rate resulting increased and indiscriminate use of inorganic inputs.
As a matter of fact farmer has a multidimensional problems with reference to availability,exorbitant price and spurious material in the name of inputs which is complicating the situation.In our efforts to overcome this
situation our group has initiated work on kits for quality control, suggesting package and protocol under the purview of integrated resource management.An user friendly quality control kit has been developed and onfarm priming is being advocated for wider purpose with perspective of input use efficiency as well plant protection point of view and adaptability to abiotic stress.
