Background: Blackgram (Vigna mungo L.), the most important highly prized pulse crops is grown throughout India. The productivity can be evaluated through various input management practices including inorganic and organic as well as natural way of cultivation. Methods: Both lab and field investigations were carried out to choose best tree leaf extracts for seed fortification and foliar nutrition in blackgram and also to evaluate performance of Vrikshayurvedic farming practices with seed fortification and foliar spraying of Moringa oleifera leaf extracts and basal nutrition of Delonix regia. Comparison with conventional scientific practices and do-nothing farming practice was also made. Result: Vrikshayurvedic farming (Delonix regia + Moringa oleifera @ 5%) as green leaf manure and foliar spray with tree leaf extract, respectively, registered highest vales for growth and yield parameters. It was at par with conventional scientific practice (RDF @ 25:50:25 NPK kg ha-1 and foliar spray with DAP 2% twice @ 30 and 45 DAS). It is inferred that vrikshayurveda treatments resulted in better plant growth, DMP, seed yield, pod yield equivalent as that of conventional practice and superior to do-nothing practice. It also helps to improve and maintain soil fertility over a long period of time.

Abstract The proportion of stunting in children under 5 years old in Indonesia was approximately 30,8% in 2018. One of the things that is presumably related to the occurrence of stunting is lack of nutrition that can be attributed to exclusive breastfeeding. Fenugreek seeds have properties as laktogoga and moringa leaves in addition to having efficacy as lactagoga, also have advantage in nutritional content, particularly high protein content, groups of minerals and vitamins. The aim of the study was to assess the potential of the formula fenugreek seed extract (Trigonella foenum-graecum L) and moringa leaves (Moringa oleifera Lamk.) as a supplement to release milk while at the same having nutrient content. Methods using the test weighting method in pregnant female rats by measuring the volume of milk taken by baby rats. Test were carried out on five groups of mother rats namely groups than were given : fenugreek and moringa extract (1: 1) with different doses I, II and III; comparison group (moloco) and control group (distilled water). Each mother fed five rats, provision of extract was carried out starting the first day after the mother gave birth, and measurement were take on 6th, 11th, 16th to 21st day The volume of milk consumed by five rats was counted as difference of body weight after and before breastfeeding. Moringa nutritional assessment is carried out using standard methods on, iron, calcium and potassium content; vitamin A and vitamin C content and protein level. Fenugreek-moringa extract (1: 1) dose of 30 mg/200g bb, can increase the volume of breast milk of female rat larger than the untreated group (p≤0.05). The cumulative weight gain of rat infants was greater than the control group (p≤0.05), according to the nutrients obtained from the fenugreek-moringa extract. Moringa leaves as a component of extract, have high nutritional value of minerals, vitamins and proteins and have advantages as lactogogum. Conclusion: The administration of moringa leaf and fenugreek seed extract (1: 1) dose of 30 mg / 200 g bb in breastfeeding female rats has a 2.4 times greater potential in increasing milk expenditure compared to breastfeeding female rats who did not get the same extract. Fenugreek-moringa extract has superior potential as laktagogum and at the same time a high nutritional supplement. Abstrak Proporsi kejadian stunting pada anak usia di bawah 5 tahun (balita) di Indonesia tercatat sekitar 30,8% pada tahun 2018. Salah satu hal yang diduga berkaitan dengan terjadinya stunting adalah gizi kurang yang dapat dikaitkan dengan pemberian air susu ibu (ASI) eksklusif. Biji klabet memiliki khasiat sebagai laktagoga dan daun kelor selain mempunyai khasiat sebagai laktagoga, juga mempunyai keunggulan pada kandungan gizinya, terutama kandungan protein yang tinggi, golongan mineral dan vitamin. Penelitian bertujuan untuk menilai potensi formula ekstrak biji klabet (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) dan daun kelor (Moringa oleifera Lamk.) sebagai suplemen pelancar pengeluaran air susu sekaligus memiliki kandungan nutrisi yang tinggi. Metode menggunakan test weighting method pada tikus betina hamil, dengan cara mengukur volume air susu yang diminum oleh bayi tikus. Dilakukan uji pada lima kelompok induk tikus yaitu: kelompok yang diberi ekstrak klabet dan kelor (1:1) dengan dosis I, II dan III yang berbeda; kelompok pembanding (moloco) dan kelompok kontrol (akuades). Tiap induk tikus menyusui lima ekor anak tikus. Pemberian bahan uji dilakukan mulai hari pertama setelah induk tikus melahirkan, dan pengukuran dilakukan pada hari ke-6, 11, 16 sampai 21. Volume air susu yang diminum lima ekor anak tikus dihitung sebagai selisih berat badan sesudah dan sebelum disusui induknya. Penilaian gizi kelor dilakukan menggunakan metoda standar, terhadap kandungan mineral besi, kalsium dan kalium; kandungan vitamin A dan vitamin C, serta kadar protein. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan ekstrak klabet-kelor (1:1) dosis 30 mg/200g bb, dapat memperbanyak pengeluaran volume air susu induk tikus lebih besar dari kelompok yang tidak diberi perlakuan (p≤0,05). Pertambahan berat kumulatif bayi tikus, lebih besar dibandingkan kelompok kontrol (p≤0,05), sesuai dengan gizi yang didapat dari ekstrak klabet-kelor. Daun kelor sebagai komponen ekstrak, mempunyai nilai gizi mineral, vitamin, dan protein yang tinggi serta memiliki keunggulan sebagai laktogogum. Kesimpulan penelitian adalah pemberian ekstrak biji klabet-daun kelor (1:1) dosis 30 mg/200g bb pada tikus betina menyusui mempunyai potensi 2,4 kali lebih besar dalam meningkatkan pengeluaran air susu dibandingkan kelompok tikus betina menyusui yang tidak mendapatkan ekstrak yang sama. Ekstrak biji klabet-kelor mempunyai potensi unggul sebagai laktagogum dan sekaligus suplemen dengan gizi tinggi.

Pyraclostrobin (F500), an agricultural fungicide derived from the fungal sec-ondary metabolite strobilurin, is known to enhance growth and yield of cere-als when applied on healthy plants. A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of Pyraclostrobin (F500) on growth and yield of healthy plants of fenugreek (Trigonella foenum graecum L.) var. Pusa early under field conditions. Pyraclostrobin (F500) was applied as a foliar spray in the four different concentrations (0.005 g L-1, 0.01 g L-1, 0.025 g L-1 and 0.1 g L-1), on 15th, 30th and 45th days after emergence of seedlings. Unsprayed plants served as control. F500 treatment enhanced the biomass (Plant height, fresh weight and dry weight) and yield parameters (Number of pods per plant, seeds per plant and 100 seed weight). Although enhancements in growth and yield parameters were observed with all the concentrations of F500 used, it was maximum at 0.01 g L-1 concentration. Enhanced biomass showed positive correlation with increase in yield and seed quality (seed weight per plant). Thus, F500 can be successfully employed as a foliar spray under field conditions to enhance the yield of T. foenum graecum.

Abstract Four leafy vegetable species, spinach (Spinacia oleracea), amaranthus (Amaranthus viridis), fenu-greek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) and bathua (Chenopodium album), were extracted with three different solvents (80% ethanol, 80% acetone and water) for maximum recovery of phenol and antioxidant compounds in the extract. The results of extraction were compared with extraction from moringa (Moringa oleifera) leaves that is known as a very rich source of antioxidants. The study showed that, it is very difficult to justify a single solvent for extraction of antioxidant compounds from different plants. Results from different solvents used for extracting the bioactive compounds mostly depend on the type of compound extracted (polar/medium polar/non-polar) present in leafy matrices. Here, 80% acetone extract showed highest total phenol content in moringa leaves but the overall antioxidant activity in the leaves of four vegetables was observed to be better after extraction with 80% ethanol. Nevertheless, in most assays, independent of solvent used for extraction, the moringa leaves were the richest source of polyphenols and antioxidants.
