2 Problem diagnose : Amchur is made from green mango. The mangoes are
peeled by using iron tool commonly and the flesh cut into 4-
5 slices and then dried into open place for 2-3 days. The
dried slices are sold in the local market. The slices are
graded according to colour. The whitish slices fetch more
prices as compared to blackish slices. Normally there are
only 20 % slices falls under grade one remaining 40 % grade
two and 40 % grade three. The major problem of blackening
is due to improper harvesting time, use of iron tools for
peeling and unhygienic method of drying.

crop. The Production of paddy is at large scale. The processing of paddy at village level i.e. dehusking, shelling are based on traditional practices. Hand pounding is used for milling of paddy in the absence of huller. The paddy grains is milled actually in raw conditions mostly by hullers only a very few percentage of miller actually purchase the paddy which is hulled or concerned with marketing of resultant rice. Besides the processing and milling charges, their current interest is mostly in the margin of extra yield of rice and sale of by-product.

Neem oil extraction unit
Shri. Bhikabhau Chaudhary At/post/tq.:Taloda Dist.: Nandurbar He is a medium farmer of taloda tehsil of Nandurbar district. He is engaged in production of various seedlings in the nursery. He produces chilli, papaya, banana seedlings in his shadnet house. Chilli, papaya, banana ,cotton, turmeric are the major crops grown in Nandurbar district. In these crops, the infestation of nematode & other soil borne pests has been observed. For the control of nematode & other soil borne pests, KVK Nandurbar suggested these farmers to apply neem cake & neem oil for spraying.Now the demand of neem cake & neem oil has been increasing day by day. He is the regular member of our bimonthly krishak mandal - a forum for innovative farmers. During the month of September 2011, he discussed with KVK scientists about the scope for neem oil extraction unit. After the discussion with KVK scientist, he decided to establish neem oil extraction unit. The KVK scientists guided him at every critical stages of enterprise establishment. He established neem oil extraction unit nearby his nursery unit. For the first year, the turnover of his unit reached to RS.1, 50,000.From this oil extraction unit, about 125 farmers purchased neem cake to apply their fields. Nursery an effective source of livelihood to rural youths : Chandu Jaywant Gavit- an tribal youth resident of Bokalzar Teh. Navapur was constantly in touch with KVK with regard to some employment generation in his area. Two years back, he was insisted by KVK to attend 3 days training programme for rural youths on nursery management in KVK. Along with training, visits were conducted at certain successful nurseries. After seeing the practical reality of nursery and after discussion with KVK scientists Chandubhau made up his mind to start nursery in his area. He was initially told to erect shadenet upto 2 gunta and concentrate on chilli, papaya and brinjal seedlings. All designs with regard to shadenet and improved technologies with regard to seedling raising were provided out to Chandubhau. KVK scientists constantly visited his site. Nandurbar tehsil where demand was in abundance. In first phase itself Chandubhau raised 20,000 seedlings of papaya which gave him net Rs. 80000/- profit. After papaya, 1,50,000 seedlings of chilli were raised which gave his net Rs. 1 lakh. After seeing the response ,he enlarged area of his shadenet to 4 guntas. Along with papaya, chilli he also raised 1,00,000 seedlings of brinjal which fetched him Rs. 76000/-. He then started generating orders even from his area. He has once again enlarged his shadenet to 6 guntas. Along with Nandurbar tehsil ,he has now even started generating orders from Navapur tehsil. He has well established nursery now. Along with chilli, papaya, brinjal he has also started raising Drumstick, lemon seedlings and mango grafts. He gives whole credit of his success to KVK, Nandurbar

4.2. Cases of large scale adoption Trench cum bunding proved as effective measure for soil and water conservation: A project entitled ‘Promoting sustainable livelihood and nutritional security in Nandurbar district of Maharashtra’ funded by UNDP was implemented at Dhanaje Tq. Dhadgaon in Nandurbar district. The village falls in hilly tracts of Satpuda ranges. The topography of the project area is sloppy and undulating. Water erosion is the main cause of soil erosion and land degradation in the hilly area of Satpuda ranges. Soil erasion results in huge loss of nutrients in suspension or solution which are washed from one place to another, thus causing depletion of nutrients. Besides the loss of nutrients from top soil, there is also degradation through the creation of gullies and ravines which makes the land inappropriate for agricultural production. This soil erosion ruthlessly affects agriculture which is the main occupation of the project area. The soils area having shallow rooting depth, prone to moderate to severe soil erosion. Soil erosion is the serious problem faced by the farmers. The annual rainfall is 813.2 mm. The frequency of intense rainfall (> 60 mm/day) is 2.5 as decadal average. The top soil-the productive layer has been deteriorating day by day causing decrease in productivity of soil. To sustain the productivity of soil, the soil erosion has to be prevented with implementing proper soil and water conservation measures. KVK, Nandurbar had been extended technical backstopping for the project. As a part of natural resource management, KVK, Nandurbar had suggested an intervention of trenching cum bunding on farmers land. The traditional pattern in this area is that the farmers are never willing to spare even an inch of land for anything except cultivation. The project team could convince nine farmers to spare 1 acre each for trench cum bunding. The trench cum bunding consists of digging the trenches across the slope Bunds are formed out of the soil dug out below the trenches. The run off from the field collects in the trenches reducing its velocity. Thus the erosive capacity of the runoff gets reduced. The stored water in the trenches gets infiltrated. The top soil washed out with runoff gets trapped in the trenches. Thus the trench cum bunding acts for soil and water conservation. After carrying out trench cum bunding, the top soil trapped in the trenches after arrival of the first rain astonished all the participants. The top soil trapped in the trenches measured in tons. This had good impact on other farmers and 17 more farmers in the area came ahead to have similar treatment in their field. Thus the trench cum bunding activity achieved its target and has demonstrated to farmers in the area that this treatment can make a serious difference. The ecouraging results of trench cum bunding have results in the demand from the farmers for trench cum bunding in MGNREG scheme. The area of Dhanaje village was treated with trench cum bunding. Besides the strong awareness regarding this intervention, the farmers from the surrounding villages are also putting their demand for trench cum bunding. The up scaling has proved that the trench cum bunding as effective measure for soil and water conservation in the hilly track of Satpuda ranges.
