2. DETAILS OF DISTRICT (2016-17)

Kullu district is situated in the Inner Himalayas between 300 51’ 00” North latitude and 770 06’ 04” East

longitude. The altitude of the district ranges from 500 m to 5000 m amsl, but the habitation is only up to 3500 m.

In terms of geographical conditions the district is mountainous cruised by rivers & valleys. The Satluj and Beas

are the principal rivers with many tributaries. The district has been divided into five blocks viz. Naggar, Kullu,

Banjar, Ani and Nirmand. There are 204 Gram Panchayats and 172 revenue villages having many hamlets. Total

population is 4,37,903 as per 2011 census (Male 2,24,549 and Female 2,13,354).

Net cultivated area is 42,400 ha. 28,539 ha is cultivated more than once thus making the total cultivated

area to 70,939 ha. Only 2905 ha is irrigated which comes to 7.8 per cent of the net cultivated area. Out of 66,206

total operational holdings 0.10 % (84) large, 0.70 % (479) medium, 6% (2978) semi- medium, 13.50 % (8938)

small and 81.20 % (53,727) marginal.

The district experiences mild summers and severe winter due to snow fall on mountain ranges. December

marks the onset of winter which continues till the end of February, sometimes continuing till the month of March.

The snow and sleet fall in the upper region while rains are confined to the lower areas. From March onwards

weather begins to warm up accelerating growth of rabi (winter) crops. Hailstorms are received sometimes during

April & May causing considerable damage to field crops and fruits. Monsoon begins in the end of June or

beginning of July and recedes by the middle of September. In winter, heavy rainfall in lower belt and snow in

higher belt is received due to western disturbances.

Agro-climatic

Zone Characteristics

1 Mid-hill sub-humid zone

The elevation of this zone varies from 651 to 1800m amsl. Soil texture varies from loam to clay loam and soils are deficient in N & P with poor water & nutrient holding capacity. Soils are acidic in reaction. The average rainfall is about 1500mm. In this zone, wheat, paddy, maize, seed potato, pulses and oilseeds are the main crops Stone and citrus fruits occupy considerable area. Forest and pastures are also important in this zone.

2 High-hills temperate wet zone

The elevation of this zone lies above 1800m amsl. The soils are shallow in depth, acidic in reaction, silt loam to loam in texture and deficient in N & P. Terrace farming is practiced. Soil erosion, low fertility and inadequate water management are main problems of this zone. The main crops are wheat, maize, paddy, barley, pulses and oilseeds. Mostly rainfed farming is practiced. The average rainfall is about 1000mm. This zone is suitable for raising off-season vegetable and seed production of temperate vegetable, Apple, other temperate fruits and nuts are important horticultural crops.

3 High-hills temperate dry zone

The elevation of this zone lies above 2501m amsl. The soils are shallow in depth and sandy loam in texture with low fertility. The main crops are barley, wheat, potato, buckwheat, peas, millets, temperate vegetables and dry fruits. The average rainfall is about 1000mm.

Trial 6

1) Title : Boron fertilization to overcome browning of curds in cauliflower

2) Problem

diagnose/defined

: Cauliflower is one of the most important cole crops being grown in Kullu district

throughout the year. During the last one decade, its production has been affected by boron

deficiency resulted into unmarketable brown curds. Hence, an OFT was conducted to

overcome the deficiency of B with the application of borax as soil as well as foliar.


elected for

iii) Borax @ 0.5% as foliar application at curding stage +RDF(NPK @

125:75:70 kg + FYM @ 20 t/ ha)

4) Source of technology : CSK HPKV, Palampur

5) Production system : Irrigated vegetable based



technology with

performance indicators

: The application of recommended levels of fertilizers (RDF) i.e. NPK (@ 125:75:70 kg/ha)

+ FYM @ 20 t/ ha + 20kg/ha borax as soil application gave the highest curd yield of

cauliflower cv. ‘Fuziyama (20.30 t/ha) along with the maximum B:C ratio (3.70)

compared to the FP (16.56 t/ha). The application of recommended levels of fertilizers and

manures along with borax produced the snow white curds in comparison to pale yellow in

case of farmers practice.



: The application of recommended levels of NPK (@ 125:75:70 kg/ha) ++ FYM @ 20 t/

ha + borax @ 20kg/ha as soil application gave higher curd yield and profitability.



: -


participation and their

reaction

: Testing was done on farmers’ field and they were impressed with this technology as it

not only increased the curd yield of cauliflower but also improves the curd quality i.e.

snow white curds.

5 1. No boron + NPK @ 62.5:37.5:35 kg + FYM @ 10 t/ ha (Farmers Practice)**

Curd yield (t/ha) 16.56 The application of recommended levels of fertilizers(RDF) i.e. NPK (@ 125:75:70 kg/ha) + FYM @ 20 t/ ha + 20kg/ha borax gave the highest curd yield of cauliflower cv. ‘Fuziyama (20.32 t/ha) along with the maximum B:C ratio (3.70) compared to the FP (16.56 t/ha). The application of recommended levels of fertilizers and manures along with borax as soil application produced the snow white curds in comparison to pale yellow in case of farmers practice.

The farmers are very much impressed with this technology as it not only increased the curd yield of cauliflower but also improves the curd quality.

Trial 7

1) Title : Potassium fertilization to overcome hollowness of bulbs in garlic

2) Problem diagnose/defined : Kullu district. Its production has been affected by imbalanced use of potassium

fertilizers resulting into hollowness of bulbs upto 20-25%. Therefore, an OFT was

conducted to overcome this problem with application of potassium fertilizers as

soil as well as foliar spray

3) Details of technologies elected


: i. NPK @ 62.5:37.5:30 kg + FYM @ 10 t/ ha (Farmers practice)

ii. NPK @ 125:75:60 kg + FYM @ 20 t/ ha ( Recommended practice)

iii. NPK @ 125:75:60 kg + FYM @ 20 t/ ha + 2 sprays of NPK 0:0:50 @ 0.5%

starting from bulbing stage at 10 days intervals (Technology assessed).

4) Source of technology : IIVR, Varanasi

5) Production system : Irrigated- vegetable based




: The application of K2O@60kg/ha + N:P @ 125:75 kg + FYM @ 20 t/ ha (RDF)

+ 2 sprays of NPK 0:0:[email protected]% starting from bulbing stage at 10 days interval

gave the highest bulb yield of garlic cv. ‘GHC-1’ (12.177 t/ha) along with the

maximum B:C ratio (3.49) compared to the FP (9.383 t/ha). The above treatment

also produced very low hollowness of bulbs (2.60%) as compared to 17.40 % in

case of farmers practice.



: The application of K2O@60kg/ha + N:P @ 125:75 kg + FYM @ 20 t/ (RDF) +

sprays of NPK 0:0:50 @ 0.5% starting from bulbing stage at 10 days interval

gave the highest bulb yield and profitability.



: -



: Testing was done on farmers’ field and they were impressed with this technology

as it not only increased the bulb yield of garlic but also improves the bulb quality

which is the major concern of the farmers. Other garlic growers who visited the

OFTs also showed keen interest towards this technology

Diversification through off-season vegetable production for livelihood of hill farmers

1. Situation analysis/Problem statement: Kullu district situated in Inner Himalayas located 31020’25” to 32025’0” North latitude and

76056’30” to 77052’20” East longitude having altitude ranging from 900 m to 4020 m above mean

sea level is the operational area of KVK, Kullu. The proportion of marginal holdings has

continuously increased whereas that of small and medium has decreased over the period from 1980-81

onwards, which witnesses the fact that the small, medium

and large holdings are continuously being fragmented to

give rise to marginal holdings. Owing to diverse agro-

ecological situations, Kullu district of Himachal Pradesh

is endowed with comparative advantage for growing

various off-season vegetables. Vegetables play a

significant role in quality food, nutritional security as

well as poverty alleviation. The vegetables are

embedded with vitamins, proteins, minerals,

carbohydrates and fibers. The consumption of vegetables

is ever increasing and to meet this increasing demand,

more and more emphasis is required on off-season

vegetable production for higher income and employment

generation in the rural sector. In hills, where job

opportunities in other sectors are very less, off-season

vegetable growing is the only option to attract more and

more rural youth to adopt agriculture as vocation (means of self employment), halt migration to cities

and achieve agriculture growth over 4 %. Further, global warming has resulted in the shift of apple to

higher altitudes, off-season vegetables is the only remunerative alternative for livelihood. Keeping in

view, KVK, Kullu initiated its endeavour for the diversification of agriculture through off-season

vegetable cultivation.

2. Plan, Implement and Support During early nineties, maize - wheat was the dominant cropping system.The awareness

campaigns were initiated by KVK, Kullu to popularize the off-season vegetable cultivation with the formation of 20 Kisan clubs. Simultaneously, about 100 rural youth were trained at KVK, Kullu in collaboration with the department of agriculture for meeting the input requirements of off-season vegetables. In the present scenario, when there is strong network of various stake holders throughout the district through various SHGs and farmers clubs etc., KVK has established itself as the knowledge hub to increase outreach to every nook and corner of the district by taking advantage of this strong network. Therefore, KVK, Kullu conducted various extension activities in the district regarding promotion of off-season vegetable cultivation (Table 1). Acknowledging KVK as knowledge hub, all the stake holders working for the enhancement of livelihood options to the farmers like departments namely, Agriculture, Horticulture, Animal husbandry, Mid-Himalayan Watershed Project (Forest), Great Himalayan National Park, District Youth Services and Sports, SHGs, NGOs, NYK etc. are seeking our services for the diversification through off-season vegetable production.

3. Output KVK has assessed and refined various technologies of off-season vegetable crops and also

prepared technology modules based on recommendation domains for different agro-ecological situations (Table 2&3) in the district. To popularize these technologies, off and on campus training programmes based on “learning by doing” and large scale demonstrations based on “seeing is believing” were organized (Table 1). In one of the ambitious programme “Pt. Deen Dyal Kisan Bagwan Samridhi Yojna” of the State now called as “Y S Parmar Kisan Bagwan Swarojgar Yojna” , it has been made mandatory for polyhouse owners to get training from KVK. Similarly, Krishak Mitras from each

and every panchayat are also being trained at KVK. Literature pertaining to these technologies was developed and distributed to the farmers and extension officers. Kullu Krishi Patrika, a quarterly magazine of Krishi Vigyan Kendra played a significant role in dissemination of aforesaid technologies. For the quality production of vegetables, availability of healthy nursery is kingpin. Therefore, KVK has established large number of the farmers as entrepreneurs for nursery raising. Other interventions like water conservation, harvesting and efficient management were also taken up simultaneously. Regular services are also provided to the farmers to solve their day to day problems and have feedback and monitoring. Now regulars SMSs are also being sent to the farmers for timely operations.

4. Outcome and Impact

Our efforts have resulted in considerable increase in area under vegetables in the district which

is however, very difficult in fragile eco-system of hills. The total area under off-season vegetables

in the district has increased from 301 ha in 1995-96 to 6046 ha in 2015-16 (Table 4.) The

productivity (average) of the vegetables as a whole

has also increased almost two to three folds from the

last 26 years reaching to 185.78 q/ha in 2015-16.

The various vegetable cultivation technologies

suggested by KVK Kullu have also been spread to

the adjoining district namely Mandi where large

number of farmers have now adopted as a vocation

for self employment for their livelihood. With the

adoption of various vegetable cultivation

technologies as suggested by KVK, Kullu, the net

income of the farmers in the district has increased to

many fold (1.5 to 2 lakhs/acre-average land holding

of farmers) and subsequently their standard of living has improved.

As there is a huge demand of fresh vegetables in the big city markets, the farmers send their

vegetable produce directly to the number of market yards established by APMC. The produce finally goes either to Azadpur market or other parts of the country through the wholesale traders.

9. B. Give details of innovative methodology/technology developed and used for Transfer of Technology

during the year • To increase outreach of KVK to every nook and corner of the district, good liaison has been made with

all the stakeholders (Govt. Departments and NGOs including Yuvak Mandals and Mahila Mandals, and Fruit & Vegetable Growers’ Associations) for effective implementation of KVK programmes.

• Group leaders and progressive farmers are being trained and utilized as master trainers. • Some of self help groups have been associated/ linked with KVK and regular monthly meetings of these

are convened to review the progress and chalk out further programmes. Services of these groups are being utilized to motivate other farmers through participation in training and exhibitions.

• In case of training & pruning in apple and other temperate fruits, local rural youths are being trained in groups to perform this important operation in orchards on contract basis for providing them avenue for earning.
