ACTIONABLE POINTS FOR ACHIEVING DOUBLE DIGIT GROWTH

S. No

Technological Interventions % of area Proposed to cover with

inetervention

1. Paddy

Increase in the Area under direct sowing

47 – 50%

Supply of Green Manure seed 15 – 20%

Application of Micronutrients 40 – 50%

Growing of Redgram on Rice bunds 4 – 5%

2. Cotton

Application of micronutrients 20 – 30%

Encouraging Inter cropping with Redgram to increase net returns

5-8%

Implementation of Stem Application 15 – 20%

GAPS IN AGRICULTURE• Crop sequence & crop rotation

Continuous mono cropping Non remunerative crop sequenceNon adoption of intercropping for sustainable

production

• Poor Soil Health ManagementDegradation of organic matterMicro nutrient deficiencyMono cropping resulting in soil degradation

16

GAPS IN AGRICULTURE• Indiscriminate use of pesticides & Fertilizers

Improper selection of pesticidesHigh or low dosage Timely applicationImbalanced use of NPKExcess use of urea

• Extension system:Man power resourcesDissemination of Technologies to the farmers

17

MAJOR STRATEGIES

A)Micro nutrients:

Massive Soil Health Campaign – Collected 420 soil samples

during 2015-16 through GPS.

Planning for distribution of Micronutrients to 5000 ha.

Already distributed 12 MTs of Zinc Sulphate and 4Qtls of Boron.

Distributed 23 MTs of Dhaincha Seed.

B) Village level Action Plan has been prepared for 11 villages

to address the gaps in productivity.

18

Major Strategies for achieving double digit growth

C) Crop wise strategies for increasing productivity in each

crop by adopting good agricultural practices with emphasis

on reducing cost of production.

Focus on reducing cost of production by adopting methods

like: direct seeding in rice, zero tillage in maize, pulses in rice

fallows, etc.

19

D) Organic Farming/ Natural farming:

1. Integration of NPM for quality produce in different

crops

2. Using RMGs as platform promotion of organic farming

3. In coordination with SERP, the ongoing Organic

Farming will be scaled up.

4. Popularizing different methods of organic inputs like

vermi compost, FYM, neem coated urea, neem cake, bio

agents & bio pesticides

Major Strategies

20

E) Extension:• Improving Extension Reach by Polam Pilusthondi,

Chandranna Rythu Kshetralu. CRKs will be demonstrated in different crops for increasing productivity.

• Focus on Organic Farming - Reduction in chemical fertilizers and elimination of chemical pesticides.

F) Farm Mechanization:

Promoting improved Farm Mechanization by

supplying farm implements on subsidy to reduce

the cost of farm operations and effective human

resource utilization.

CROP WISE INTERVENTIONS TO ACHIEVE DOUBLE DIGIT GROWTH

Major Production Gaps proposed for correction

which contribute for increase in growth

Technological Intervension Proposed to bridge the gap % of Area proposed to cover with

intervention (in ha.)

Lack of awareness on soil health

Creating awareness on soil health through soil testing and also on usage of micronutrients like Zinc and Gypsum. Yield increase by 10 to 15%

30-40%

Seed treatment with bio fungicides is not practiced

Awareness on use of Bio fungicides for seed treatment like Pseudomonas in Paddy; Trichoderma viride in Cotton, Chllies, Maize and Pulses.

Maintenance of Soil Specific plant population

More Plant population in Rainfed light soils. Increasing the production by 15-20%

25-30%

Stem ApplicationEncouraging Stem application with chemicals reduced the cost of cultivation by 10-15%

20-30%

Cotton

Lack of awareness on soil health

Creating awareness on soil health through soil testing and also on usage of micronutrients like Zinc and Gypsum. Yield increase by 15 to 20%

30-40%

Non application of organic manure and bio-fertilizers

Creating awareness on use of vermin compost, and growing of green manure crops and application of organic manures. Yield increase by 10-15%

25-30%

Application of phosphatic fertilizers as top dressing

Educating the farmers on basal application of Phosphatic fertilizers and creating awareness on negative effects of Topdressing, use of Phosphorus Solubilizing Bacteria (PSB). Cost reduction by 5-10%

25-30%

Seed treatment with bio fungicides is not practiced

Awareness on use of Bio fungicides like pseudomonas for seed treatment in Paddy.

Optimum plant population not followed

Encouraging Direct sowing with Seed Drills and Cost reduction by 20-25%

45-50%

Rodent damageTrainings, Mass Campaigns and supply of rodenticide on whole village approach

Paddy

24

STRATEGIC FOCUS ON

• Soil Test Based Nutrient recommendation

• Reducing excessive use of nitrogen

• Direct Sowing in Paddy

• Control on indiscriminate use of Pesticide

• Promotion of Non-pesticide Management (NPM)

• Micronutrient supplementation• Capacity building and training.
