A package of customized recommendations for individual farmer to double income Paddy is a major crop of Yadgir district under UKP command area and needs major interventions for doubling income without crop replacement

Constraints identified:

•Irregular onset of monsoon •Late availability of canal water •Poor soil management •Poor nutrition management •Unscientific dosage and timing of fertilizer application •Excessive use of nitrogen •Heavy pest and disease incidences •Non-scientific approaches of pesticides •Poor knowledge on use of pesticides •No choice of other varieties •Poor irrigation water management •No use of alternative pest / disease management strategies •No knowledge of market intelligence and pricing •No scope for processing / storage for future marketing Stages of intervention in Paddy for income doubling

Reduces cost of Soil cultivation by testing Right 30% Market price variety information Market intelligence helps Linking with Seed in getting 10-12% treatment buyers higher price

Paddy Addition of milking animals Use of RDF at 4/10acre farm is bio- right likely to add 20% agents time additional income and employment Preventive LCC based N measures for application pest/diseases Water Total income is manage ment likely to increase by 35-40% Cultivation of vegetables on bunds will add income and nutritional security Stages of intervention in Paddy for income doubling Actions recommended:

•Training on crop cultivation •Proper soil management and application of nutrients based on test report •Adoption of DSR / Drum seeded rice sowing method if possible •Use of disease / pest resistant cultivars •Seed / seedling treatment shall be made compulsory •Information on phone sms / voice messages on weekly basis •Nitrogen application based on LCC •Pest and disease forewarning system •Suggestions / adoptions on preventive sprays against pest /diseases •Recommending use of biocontrol agents / bio-fertilizers / predators •Use of scientific method of irrigation method •Sending / registering farmers mobile number with APMC sms system •Suggesting allied activities for inclusion apart from paddy •Field days to popularise the Good Crop Management practices •Conduct FFS wherever possible Cotton is a major cash crop of Yadgir district and needs interventions for doubling income without crop replacement

Constraints identified:

•Irregular & late onset of monsoon •Poor soil management •No proper spacing / poor crop husbandry •Poor weed management / intercropping •Unscientific dosage and timing of fertilizer application •Heavy incidence of Pink bollworm and sucking pests •Poor use of micronutrient application •Non-scientific approaches of pesticides •Poor knowledge on use of pesticides •No choice of other varieties •No use of alternative pest / disease management strategies •No knowledge of market intelligence and pricing •No scope for processing / storage for future marketing in the district Horticulture Trainings
