A field experiment was carried out on effect of different modules on yield, nutrient uptake and physico-chemical properties of soil after harvest of cluster bean (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L.) at Regional Research Station, SDAU, Bhachau, Kachchh under Randomized Block Design. The experiment was consisting of five different modules among three are organic modules, one chemical module and control. The results of the experiments are differed significantly. The significant improvement in yield was recorded with the chemical module T 4. In organic modules T 2 and T 3 recorded the more yield as compared to control. Modules T 2 and T 3 also recorded the good nutrient content and uptake. Available nutrients in the soil after harvest are best in the organic modules T 2 and T 3 .

: Mango fruit suffers from many post harvest diseases among them anthracnose [Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (Penz) Penz and Sacc.] In stem end rot [Botryodiplodia theobromae (Pat.) Griffon and Maubl.], Alternaria rot (Alternaria alternata Keissal) and black mould (Aspergillus niger V. Tieghem) are the important diseases which contribute to the post harvest losses of mango. The market survey conducted during 2015 in Dharwad, Gadag and Uttara Kannada districts revealed that, among the post harvest diseases of mango anthracnose showed maximum PDI (14.25) followed by stem end rot (8.85) and Alternaria rot showed least PDI (5.10). Among the districts surveyed maximum PDI (10.98) was recorded in Dharwad followed by Hubballi (9.01) and least PDI (6.53) was recorded in Ankola. Among varieties, Alphanso showed maximum PDI (10.66) followed by Pairi (7.83) and least PDI was observed in Ishadi (6.40) and Neelam (6.22). The PDI ranged from 6.22 to 10.66.
