1. As Incharge of Soil and water testing Labortary of Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Kapurthala from
2006 to upto now we had analyzed 2093 soil and water samples and by doing so Soil and water
testing laboratory of KVK, Kapurthala stood 3rd after Gurdaspur and Bathinda while 4th in the
whole of north Zone of India.

Total samples analysed free of cost 2093

We had analyzed 1740/- samples (Soil and water) and thus submit Rs. 34,800 = 00 to the
higher quarters by charging Rs. 20 per sample as analyzing fee from the farmer and guide him
regarding the management of different fertilizers onto his fields. Instead of this, before
conducting any FLD or any research trial, the soil samples of demonstration plots are analyzed
for knowing it’s inherent soil fertility viz. pH, EC, Soil texture, O.C (%), K (Kg/ha) and P
(Kg/ha free of cost and fertilizer recommendations are made accordingly and in this regard upto
now analyse 353 soil samples free of cost for knowing the inherent fertility of the selected plot.
Thus, a total of 2093 samples were analysed by this lab so far.
We had also prepared the Soil Fertility Map of KVK instructional farm after analyzing
100 soil samples (20 samples from 5 blocks). In addition, 100 samples of adopted village viz.
Blerkhanpur were analyzed free of cost. Soil testing so far revealed that potash is now becoming
to be a deficient nutrient in most of our soils because of the continue removal of this nutrient in
our paddy-wheat cropping system. Organic carbon in 95% samples is in low range (<0.4%). As
far phosphorus is concerned, it is observed that 75% samples fell into low phosphorous category
(available potash <5 kg/acre) and 25% came in the medium range (available potash 5-9 kg/acre).
5
Further, it is analysed that 60% of the soil samples of the farmers, whereas 74% of the selected
Front Line Demonstration Plots were low in potash. Thus, inherent fertility of soils is
declining day by day.

2. As in-charge of Front Line Demonstration project:

I am looking after the Project of Front Line Demonstration at KVK from the last five
years. Under this project, we analyze the initial inherent fertility status of all the selected plots
and demonstrate the recommended technologies at the farmer's field after purchasing all the
necessary inputs viz. Seed, Fertilizers, Insecticide, compile the final reports after getting the
yield data and finally presented the work done by KVK at the FLD's workshops at the Zonal
level.
3. Incharge of Motorcycle PBO9-0903

Taking care of the motorcycle PBO9-0903 by it's timely repair, service, insurance and
maintain the log-book through-out from the last five years so that all the trials, demonstrations
and other extension activities carried out by our KVK will be well monitored in time..
