H Cattle feed

.

Cattle are often fed soy.

Spring grasses are rich in

Omega-3 fatty acids

whereas soy is

predominantly Omega-

6.

Good feed for cattle can help

in increase in the output.

I Drying and

Storage

Drying is being done on

by farmers on their

open courtyards

Need for the Cemented

platform for drying the crop

to maintain neatness.

J Benefits Nitrogen fixation


25/35

Factors in favor of Activity

100 % of the farmers take up soybeans farming in kharifseason.

They have been doing the farming of Soya crop for last 15

years.

They are well acquitted with life cycle of the Soya crop.

According to the farmers the production is up to two quintals

per Bigha or 10 quintals per ha.

It is a cash crop giving the farmers money.

The harvesting process is relatively easy in comparison to

other crops..


26/35

Problem Solution Analysis

Sr.no The problem Solution

1 Long duration crop 3 Months Introduction of short duration

varieties 2 months duration

2 Lack of quality inputs on pest/

diseases

Introduce them to Agri scientist

3 Lack of finance - Linkages with local LAMPS

4 Adverse Climatic conditions - Promoting crop insurance

5 Lack of training - good practices Training of the farmers in the good

farming practices7 Lack of knowledge of soil

suitability reading specific crop

Soil profiling

8 Land undulating - Levelling needed


27/35

Critical intervention pointsSr.no Critical intervention points

A Timely availability of critical information: Soil profile/ Pest and disease information.

B Water availability - especially the supplemental irrigation facilities in event of the

shortfall of rainfall.

C Timely availability of the - Inputs in buying the seeds (especially short duration)/

other inputs during the sowing season

D Market linkages - for off take of the output so that they can get higher price

realisation

E Need for use of technology - Farm ERP - software package / Computer system.

E Package of Practices: Training of the farmers for better adoption of the practices.


28/35

Plan and Implementing StrategySr.no Plan for first year : The strategy that will be implemented

1 Target - All 4 villages will be covered which fall under the watershed area.

2 Coverage - 25 farmers and gradually scaled up depending upon the response.

3 The demonstration area 5 hectares ( 25 Bighas) i.e 1 Bigha per farmer. (to mitigate the

risk)

4 Seed requirement :

15 to 16 Kg per bigha approx.

Total requirement 25 bigha*16 kgs = 400 Kg ( 4 Quintals)

The price of the certified seeds 2500 to 3000 per quintal

Total amount - requirement - 4 Quintal ( 4 quintal * Rs 3000 = Rs 12000 approx)5 Use of IT

Installation of Farm ERP Package (available in along with installation of computer system

with associated accessories.

6 Training of Package of Practices: Demonstration plots, training by Agri- personnel for

farmers/ Exposure visits.


29/35

Farming @ IT : Technology @Grassroots Providing simple benefits

WORK FLOW

If the farmer feeds in the name of the

crop and the sowing date, the ERP

software creates schedule that the

farmer can follow

The schedule has the date when it should be

irrigated next apart from the information on

which fertilizer to add, how much to add. It

also gives information on when and how the

harvest should be done

The farmer can record the

invoices, bills, and other

documents in the software

which can help him manage

his produce in next season.

FarmERP helps farmers document and analyse as per

expenses, labour cost and other variables.

The software developers want to make the farming exercise

more stable by making it predictable as much as possible.

The early adopters of the software are the grape farmers in

Nasik , Maharashtra where farmers are known to be

progressive .

Cost of ERP

Standard Rs 15,000

Professional Rs 35,000

High Professional Rs 75,0000
