Adoption of Improved Technology for Efficient use of Water , Nutrients and PP ChemicalPresentation by Group II
Agro-ecological Situation • High Rain fall Zone 1. Irrigated Area- On farm water management, Lining of Canals, Construction of drainage channels, Irrigation Scheduling, Formation of WUA etc. 2. Rainfed Area- On Farm Water Saving Techniques • Water Deficit Areas- Water Shed Approach • Hilly Areas- Soil and Water Conservation techniques.
INTERVENTIONS Adoption of Micro-Irrigation Systems Like Sprinkler & Drip (E-Thibak) Water shed Approach In-situ soil and moisture conservation measures Provision of lining to community tanks / water bodies Concentration on more dug area than spread area Popularisation of Integrated Farming
Construction of Pond/Tapping springs at Higher Terrace & bringing water through pipes to lower elevation for use • Contour Bonding in Jhumming • Percolation/Recharge Tanks • Maintaining Optimum weir height • Recharging of Aquifers
Formation of Water Users Association • Land Levelling (Laser levelling) • Zero Tillage • Water delivery through pipes (HDPE/Plastic) • Appropriate Legislation ( Sub Soil Water Act)
Agronomic Interventions • SRI/SWI/SSI Cultivation • Protected Cultivation • Inter cropping , Paira cropping • Direct Seeding of Rice • Mechanised Planting of Rice • Community Nursery Raising
Adoption of Mulching in widely spaced crops like Sugarcane, Cotton, Vegetables & even ground-nut • Crop diversification from heavy duty crops like paddy to Non-Paddy Crops • Adoption of Broad Bed Furrow Method
AMELIORATIVE MEASURES FOR PROBLEM SOILS • Acid Soils- - Limining- Use of Lime Stone/ Paper Mill sludge, Basic Slag etc in furrows - Use of Rock Phosphate (Both single/Combination) for longer duration crops - Use of Higher dose of organic manure - P application to Second crop - Application of deficient nutrients like B,Zn - K placements in bands/split application - Raising of tolerant & responsive crops - Crop residue recycling
Alkali soils- Application of Phospho-gypsum/Gypsum • Salt affected Soils- Green Manuring, -Application of K at Higher dose - Application of Rice Husk - Alternate drying & flooding - Opening of Channels to drain water - Construction of sluices
Appropriate Practices • Soil Test based balanced Fertiliser Application • Use of Value Added Compost (PROM,VC) • Use of Slow release Fertiliserse.g.Coated Urea • Integrated Nutrient Management i.e use of enriched organic manure & biofertilisers (especially liquid biofertilisers) along with chemical fertilisers • Green Manuring • Use of Water soluble & CustomisedFertilisers
Use of Micronutrients • Use of Leaf Colour Chart • Crop Residue Recycling –Rajasthan Model • Use of Biofertilisers-Consortium, Crop specific • Use of ICT • Fertiliser Application-Time, Dose & Method • Suitable Agronomic Practices- Pulse crop in sequence • Use of Cono/Mandwa Weeder
EFFICIENCY OF PP CHEMICALS • Selection of appropriate formulation for use & at right dose • Use of efficient Applicators like Power sprayers, Low/Ultra Low Volume sprayers, Solar assisted Trolley Mounted Sprayers, Swing sack Granule Applicator, Rodent Burrow Smoker, Hand Shake Duster • Adoption of IPM Measures • Use of Bio-pesticides , Bio Control Agents • Use of Stickers/Spreaders • Proper Pest Surveillance • Use of eco-friendly pesticides • Seed Treatment in campaign mode • Creation of awareness among farmers regarding safe & judicious use of pesticides
