Directorate of Oilseeds Development, Hyderabad Cultivation of Summer Oilseed crops Sunflower • In Northern India, the sunflower is grown mainly in Spring/Zaid season. • Apart from Northern India, summer sunflower is also cultivated in Maharashtra, Karnataka & Tamil Nadu state. • Sowing takes place during last week of January to First FN of February. Sowing should not be delayed beyond 1 st FN of February. Otherwise, productivity is affected due to high temperature during flowering and filling stage. • Crop sequences of Sunflower : - Tamil Nadu : Mung bean-Rice-Sunflower - Punjab, Haryana, UP & Bihar : Maize-Potato-Sunflower; Groundnut-Mustard-Sunflower; Fodder-Potato/Mustard-Sunflower; Urdbean-Toria-Sunflower Sunflower varieties recommended for summer cultivation Variety/Hybrid KBSH-44 (Hy) (2003) PSFH-118 (Hy) (2004) HSFH-848 (Hy) (2005) DRSH-1 (PCSH-243) (2006) State recommended All states Punjab Haryana All Statts

Directorate of Oilseeds Development, Hyderabad Area expansion of Summer Oilseed crops • Groundnut : - Rice fallow land on Residual moisture in flood plains in Assam, West Bengal, Odisha, Chattisgarh. - Timely supply of seed and developing shallow tube wells/lift irrigation will facilitate considerable expansion of area. • Sunflower : - Cultivation of sunflower after potato, mustard, sugarcane, pea, cotton, vegetables as Zaid crop in Northern India. - As a crop in areas affected by alkalinity/salinity. - In situations where water is available for shorter period in Summer season, as intercrop in peninsular and Central India. • Sesame : -In Central, Peninsular and Eastern India, Sesame as a summer crop in situations where only limited water is available for 3 -4 irrigations and shorter duration. - As a summer crop (assured irrigated condition) in eastern states after potato and rice. - Shifting of Boro cultivation to Sesame cultivation

Directorate of Oilseeds Development, Hyderabad STRATEGIES TO INCREASE OILSEED PRODUCTION • Productivity improvement through better adoption of improved technology 1. Popularizing newly released high yielding cultivars and distribution of seed minikits of oilseeds. 2. Ensuring quality seed supply at right time. 3. Improving varietal replacement rate. 4. Efficient/Standard crop management practices like i) Adoption of proper crops rotation and crop sequences. ii) Timely planting with right method of sowing iii) Polythene mulch technology in North eastern states iv) Adequate/optimum plant stand through adjustment in seed rate and thinning v) timely weed management vi) Protective irrigations to insure against weather aberrations. vii) Adoption of moisture conservation technology viii) Integrated nutrient & Pest management 5. Technology access in non-traditional areas : Odisha, West Bengal and Chhattisgarh in the Eastern grid and in Indo-Gangetic Region of Punjab, Haryana, Western UP & Bihar.
