About Station<\/span><\/h3>\n

Originally, this Research Station was a Military Farm and subsequently in 1927 it was handed over to Agriculture Department for running as a Cattle Breeding Dairy Farm under Animal Husbandry Section, till 1935 for nine years. Later on, it was completely and exclusively transferred to the Agriculture Department of old M. P. for running it as \u201cSeed Demonstration Farm\u201d. However cattle breeding and dairy also continued side by side and a Poultry unit was also attached till 1960. When the dairy and poultry units were detached, agricultural activities were expanded and intensified for upgrading the farm to the Agricultural Research Station and restricting it to agricultural research work. In 1969, this Research Station was then transferred to the Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola as Agricultural Research Sub- Centre. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/h3>\n

Infrastructure<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

The total area under this Research Sub-Centre is 115.87 ha. out of which 71.63 ha. area is under cultivation, 19.24 ha is occupied by road, building, bunds and nala etc and the remaining area of 25.0 ha handed over to Social forestry. The soil of the farm is categorized as medium to heavy in texture and low to medium in available N (143 to 290 kg\/ha.) and P (8-15 Kg\/ha.) with rich in K (252 to 305 kg\/ha.) having pH of 7.5 to 8.0.<\/span><\/p>\n

Irrigation potential is available from three tube wells situated in field No. 6 & 7. Two open wells are also located in field No. 3 and 7. Total four tube well located in field No. 1 to 4 respectively. At present, irrigation potential of 20-25 ha. in Rabi season and around 2.0-3.0 ha. in Summer season available from tube wells located in field No. 6 & 7. For land cultivation purpose, two tractors (50 & 55 H.P.) are available along with farm implements. This is supported by three bullocks.<\/span><\/p>\n
