Challenges and Learning
Challenges Irregular rainfall impeded timely (8-12 days) transplantation Low confidence among new farmers Poor irrigation infrastructure Low land holding Low interest of stakeholders
Learning Demonstrative way of training is more effective Regular enhancement of farmers knowledge is must Community participation is must Promotional activities in local language Sharing of local success stories through films is more effective Exposure visit
Way Forward…..
• Application in SCI (Oil seeds, Cereals crop, vegetables and pulses) with diversified low cost irrigation Techniques
• Intervention in Jharkhand, Bihar and West Bengal
• Ensuring food security to 15000 families and align with MDG (up to Year-2015)
• Inclusion of 60% tribal and excluded families
