Project approach
Subsidy to Non ISI (Low wall
Thickness) – 50%
Efficient Use of Nutrients • Quality production of Bio-fertilizers at each district
level for easy and timely availability• Efficient use of Liquid fertilizer and micro-nutrients
through drip and foliar spray• Large scale production of quality organic manure
and compost for improve soil fertility• Promotion of organic farming in cluster base for
agriculture crops
Efficient Use of Plant Protection Chemicals• CropSap – Scientific Pest Surveillance and Advisory System • Use of Disease & pest forecast Precautionary Measures
(AWS)• Integrated Pest Management – Adoption of Good
Agriculture Practices ( GAP)• Mechanization in spraying techniques- use of STP Pumps ,
Electrostatic pump• Support for use of Botanical pesticides• Creating on line facility for large scale awareness on
Pesticides residue monitoring ie total traceability ( Farm to Fork)
