ANNUAL REPORT OF THE Office of the Commissioner of Agriculture BARODA STATE for the year 1939-40 The Department continued under the control of R. G. Allan Esq. [...] powers though:applied most conservtively have considerably facilitated the speedy disposal of the Departmental work and the many sided activities in the present stage of evolution and the complete reorganisation of the Deparment when the rush and pressure of work was and continues to be quite abnormal at the Head Office. [...] The Department with the increase of its activities in various phases had with the advent of reorganisation found itself seriously handicapped on its administrative side due to the want of an. effective administrative Superintendent at the centre as well to the weakness in number and quality of the clerical strength. [...] Of these the more important have been a study of the growth of the principal cottons of the State in soils of different types a study of causes leading to white patches in the aerodrome at Baroda the effect of electrical stimulus in plant growth the nature of the colloid matter of black cotton soils and a study of certain abnormalities in the development of ginger rhizomes in certain local soil [...] cause of the difficulty of establishing grass but to the shortage of clay and humus in the top surface and was effectively remedied by deep digging and the addition of manure.
