Incentivizing Production • Attitude: Alternate crop / Rainfed crop vs Main crop • Increase Area • Enhancing SRR ( pulses : 20-25%, ground nut: 20%) • Timely sowing (20% drop in production in delay by 15 days). • Availability of seed • Fertilizer Application – timely and adequate . • Irrigation Coverage (mainly rainfed, ). • Use of Nutrient specific fertilizer like, SSP(sulphur) for oilseeds and soil conditioner/ameliorants like Gypsum.

  3. Incentivizing Production-2 • IPM -close monitoring, timely reporting of pest attack and taking appropriate remedial actions • New Techniques: Ridge-furrow sowing, Deep ploughing, Zero Seed Drill , Seed Treatment. • Water use efficiency - micro irrigation, sprinklers (20 % increase in productivity). • R & D for development of new, short duration and climate resilient varieties. • Mechanization for timely completion of farm operations - Custom hiring centers • Value addition for processing (Dal mills, oil mills, specially for procesing Sunflower)
