34 SCIENTIFIC EEPORTS OF THE AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH 



tion of an agriculturist who is also an engineer 

 is required here to enable these experiments to 

 be thoroughly carried out; 

 (iv) collaboration with manufacturers regarding the 

 manufacturing and introduction of any 

 improvements in present types to suit Indian 

 conditions. 



V. Experimental work at Pusa. After the preliminary 

 testing of the new experimental area at Pusa, the following 

 will be started and continued along with existing work : — 



(a) Rotational experiments. 



(b) Trial of new varieties of existing crops, especially 



leguminous fodder crops and wheat varieties. 



(c) Manurial experiments, especially seasonal and 



quantitative tests with phosphates. 



(d) Rotation and manurial experiments already 



started. 



(e) Seasonal tests with Java and Sumatrana indigo. 

 (/) Trial of sugarcane varieties suitable for growth 



without irrigation. (Some of Dr. Barber's 

 varieties are very promising.) 



VI. Demonstrations, exhibitions and sales of surplus 

 dairy stock, etc., will be held from time to time-as occasion 

 offers. 



Minor. 



VII. Touring and advisory. Visits will be paid to 

 provincial agricultural centres. This should tend to co- 

 ordination of agricultural work.
