Agricultural intervention - Effective crop planning in the

command area- Capacity building of the farmers

- Promotion of suitable cropping system/pattern

- promotion of quality seed/planting material

- promotion of low cost and sustainable methodology

Grown in numerous pattern and systemCropping pattern

A cropping pattern is a sequence of crops grown in one calendar year.

Cropping systemA cropping system is a way in which various

crops are grown in the same field. The cropping pattern used on a farm and its interactions with farm resources, other farm enterprises, and available technology which determine their makeup.Mono-croppingSingle crop in a land in a year.

Double croppingTaking 2nd crop after the first

Page 10: Crop planning

Intercropping-Crops are sown in different rows without affecting the population of main crop when sown as sole crop.Rice+greengram/blackgram (2:1 or 3:1) Rice + Pigeon pea (3:1 or 4:1)Castor + Tubercrop (1:1)Fingermillet + Pigeon pea (2:1 or 3:1)

Mixed cropping-Either sown in rows or mixed without considering the population of either.

Maize + Arhar (2:1)

Relay cropping- Growing succeeding crop in the standing or maturing crop.

Ex- gram in maturing rice crop.

Rabi-Paddy cultivation in DBI area

Should not to be promotedBut could not be avoided.The methodology can changesSRI can be a option that reduces the

water requirement as well as other inputs and maximizing the produce

Page 15: Crop planning

SYSTEM OF RICE INTENSIFICATION

Younger seedlings (8-12 days

old)

Avoid trauma to roots by quick and shallow planting

Efficient water management

(good irrigation and drainage)

Mechanical weeding

(4 times from 10 DAT)

Use of organics

Reduced population 16 plants m-2 , single plant hill-1

BASIC PRINCIPLES

Page 16: Crop planning

APPLICATION OF SRI PRINCIPLES IN OTHER CROPS (SCI)

Wheat (SWI) Finger millets Kidney bean(Rajma)

Sugarcane (SSI) Rapseed Soyabean

Other small interventionsPolyhouse-for nursery raisingMulching- for reducing evaporation lossCrop rotation- For reducing disease pest

attack and maintaining soil health
