  1. Chhattisgarh–An Overview Agro Climatic Zones • Sub-divided into three agro climatic zones. • Geog. area : 138 lakh ha. • Forest cover : 63.49 lakh ha. (46%) • Net sown area : 47.50 lakh ha. (35 % of its geog. area) • 57 % soil is medium to light. • Average rainfall : 1307.3 mm. • Net Irrigated Area : 13.55 lakh ha (29%) • Farm families : 32.55 lakh (33% ST, 12 % SC) • 76% small & marginal Farmers • Cropping intensity : 136 % Northern Hills Zone Chhattisgarh Plains Zone Bastar Plateau Zone

  2. Source wise Irrigated Area (Area in Lakh ha.) Agro Climatic Zones Northern Hills Zone Chhattisgarh Plains Zone Bastar Plateau Zone

  3. Agro Climatic Zone-wise Area

  4. Agro Climatic Zone-wise Cropping Pattern

  5. Status of Rainfall • Rainfall situation in the state as a whole is almost normal. • Average rainfall of the state upto 20th Sept. 1178.8 mm which is 111.4 % of the normal rainfall of corresponding period. Month-wise Normal / Actual Rain Fall : (In mm)

  6. KHARIF ASSESMENT 2012 CROP COVERAGE • Total Kharif cropped area estimated to be 48.04 Lakh ha which is 1 % higher over previous year. • Rice is a major Kharif crop which occupies 75 % area, followed by pulses 9 %, Oilseeds 8 % and other crops 8 %. • Total coverage under cereal crops estimated to be 39.22 lakh ha which is 1 % higher over previous year. • Arhar, Moong, Urd and Kulthi (Horse gram) are the major pulse crops. Total area under pulses estimated to be 3.98 lakh ha which is slightly higher over previous year( 3.97 lakh ha). • Among Oilseeds Soybean, Groundnut, Til and Niger are major crops. Total area estimated under oilseeds 3.49 lakh ha which is 3 % more than previous year (3.38 lakh ha.).

  7. KHARIF ASSESMENT 2012 Production Estimates • Around 75 % Area under rice is rainfed hence production and productivity of rice depend upon rainfall especially at the time of maturity. As per present crop condition production of rice is estimated to be 65.83 lakh MT which is 8 % higher over previous year. • Production of Pulses is estimated at 2.05 lakh MT which is same as previous year (2.00 lakh MT). • Estimated Production of Oilseeds 3.09 lakh MT which is 8 % higher over last year (2.86 lakh MT).

  8. Crop-wise Coverage - Kharif 2012  Sowing of Horse Gram and Niger is normally done upto September end. Estimated area mentioned for these crops includes area to be sown.

  9. ACHIEVEMENT KHARIF 2012

  10. RABI PROSPECTS – 2012-13 • Area coverage under Rabi crops mainly depends on Sept.-Oct. rains as around 80 % Rabi crops are grown under rainfed condition. • Targeted area for Rabi crops 18.53 lakh ha. which is 9 % higher over last year. Unit-Lakh ha. Unit : Lakh ha.

  11. Proposed crop coverage Rabi- 2012-13

  12. Factors responsible for low Productivity • Around 80 % of the total Rabi cropped area is under rainfed situation. Hence moisture stress during critical growth stages adversely affects productivity. • Paucity of time for Rabi land preparation after harvest of paddy. • Predominantly broadcast method of sowing is followed which results inadequate plant population ultimately low yield. • Low Seed Replacement Rate. • Heavy weed infestation • Low use of fertilizer and micro nutrients. • Pest & diseases incident.

  13. Major Constraint and proposed intervention Wheat :

  14. Contd... Gram : • Ensure use of resistant variety and timely sowing. (Vaibhav, Vijay, ICC-32) • Placement of seed in moisture zone especially in rainfed situation. • Treatment of seed with seed treating material and rhizobium culture / PSB. • Use of bio control agent / bio pesticides • Use of sprinkler system of irrigation Lathyrus : • Mainly sown as utera (relay) crop • Use of improved varieties - Ratan, Pratik • Seed treatment • Optimum sowing time - 15 days prior to harvesting of paddy crop. • Apply additional 20 kg per ha P2O5 in rice where lathyrus is to be sown. Linseed : • Ensure timely sowing - 15th Oct. 15th Nov. • Use of improved rust resistant varieties - Indira Alsi, Deepika, Kartika, RLC-92, Kiran, R-552 • Application of sulpher @10 kg per ha

  15. Integrated Nutrient Management Soil Health Status (Major Nutrient Deficiency) • Soils of all 5 districts in Northern Hill zone are Medium in N, but Low in P and K. • Soils in the Chhattisgarh Plains zone have varied levels of the major nutrients : • Nitrogen level in 10 districts of Raipur division is low, but 5 districts of Bilaspur division is Medium. • Regarding P level 12 districts (Raipur division – 7 and Bilaspur division -5) have Low and rest 3 districts of Raipur division is low. • K - content in 8 districts are of medium level 4 districts are of low level and in remaining 3 districts are of High level. • Bastar Plateau zone comprises of 7 districts which constitute 13.42% arable area of the state. • Around 56% soils are light textured with low water holding capacity. • Bastar Plateau soils as whole (all 7 districts) have low level of all three major nutrients (NPK).

  16. Soil Test Based - Nutrient Status

  17. Pest Surveillance and Judicious Use of Pesticides • Pest surveillance teams have been formed and regular monitoring is being done. • Pest and disease occurrence are monitored through e-pest surveillance device. • Farmers are being advised for need based use of pesticides through : (a) Farmers training programmes (b) Farmers Field School (c) IPM package for major crops have been made available to farmers / farmers friends / field staff. • Insecticide inspectors have been nominated for inspection of outlets and regular sampling of pesticides.
