Current farmers’ yields are lower by 2 to 5 folds than the achievable yields
Vast potential of rainfed agriculture needs to be harnessed
Rainfed Agriculture: Large Untapped Potential

Large Yield Gaps on Farmers’ FieldsExamples of observed yield gap (for major grains) between farmers’ yields and achievable yields (100% denotes achievable yield level, and columns actual observed yield levels).
(after Rockström et al., 2007).

Large number of farm holders Insufficient and dispersed knowledge Weak delivery system Scaling up approach is lacking
Why Farmers do not have access to such knowledge
