Requirement & Strategy for Fertiliser Consumption

Propositioning of fertilizers during peak season to avoid black marketing [State Plan Scheme] Promotion Soil Testing based nutrient application [Soil Health Card Scheme]

Awareness to increase in use of phosphatic fertilizers through promotion of SSP (Single Super Phosphate) [ATMA Programme] Promote the programmes with micronutrients subsidy (NFSM/NMOOP/BGREI) Promotion of Sulphur based fertilizer. Use of Neem coated Urea.

KRISHI MAHOTSAV RATH YATRA-2015

• Krishi Mahotsav Rath Yatra started in each districts from 27.5.15

• Extension of new technology & Govt. schemes among people

• Registration in farmers Portal• Soil sampling & SHC distribution• KCC distribution• Kisan call centre publicity• Scientist extention workers visit to villages• Interactive discussion between farmers -scientist

Contingency Planning• Contingency plan at district level prepared with

scientists• Preventive and contingent measures for different

draught situations are ready:1.Early onset and sudden stoppage of monsoon2.late onset, upland not covered till mid –July3.Transplanting of rice delayed/seedling over aged4.Transplanted rice affected at early vegetative stage5.Late season draught (16-31 oct)

• Advisory for these will be propagated by ATMA and other extension workers, audio-visual aids

1.Early onset and sudden stoppage of monsoon

• Diversified land use with non paddy crops in upland

• Rain water management through in-situ conservation & water harvesting

• Maize, Arhar, Black gram, G nut,Ragi etc encouraged

• Arhar and Maize based intercropping• DSR by sprouted seed

2.late onset, upland not covered till mid –July

• Sowing of stress tolerant non-paddy crops• Kulthi, Maize, Ragi, Urd, Arhar cultivation

encouraged• Maize, Niger based intercropping adoption• Vegetables like tomato, cauliflower, radish,

brinjal promoted • Rain water management through in-situ

conservation & water harvesting

3.Transplanting of rice delayed/seedling over aged

• Seedlings upto 60-70 days can be used in medium and late duration varieties

• Close transplanting using 5-7 seedling/hill• Nitrogen application reduced at transplanting• Maintain nursery by life saving irrigation• Niger, Tori, Kulthi can be cultivated

4.Transplanted rice affected at early vegetative stage

• Provide protective irrigation• Control blast in nursery• Withhold N application• Apply Potassic fert. If moisture allows• Check seepage loss

5.Late season draught (16-31 oct)

• Provide protective irrigation at critical stages• Cowpea, maize, green gram may be harvested

for fodder purpose• Pre rabi crops horsegram,niger,castor can be

grown• Preposition of seeds of rabi crops
