Mechanisation Assistance for Tractor, seed drill, Rotavators and sprayers Productivity / Protectivity enhancing Inputs Liquid Bio-fertilizers for the first time in 1. 21 lakh acres MN Mixture, Zinc Sulphate, Gypsum, Plant Protection chemicals & Weedicide application SUGARCANE WITH GREEN GRAM

13. NFSM Coarse Cereals  Cluster demonstration of Major and Minor Millets in an area of 29805 acres is organized  Mixed crop promoted  Cultivation with Newly released varieties both hybrids and high yielding varieties.  Application of Liquid Bio-Fertilizer (Azosprillum and Phosphobacteria), MN mixture for balanced nutrition was promoted  Application of Optimum Plant Population. Application of Organic Manure / Vermi compost  Bringing fallow lands atleast 5–10% under cultivation  Devising strategies to curb expansion of fallow land  Inclusion of Millets in the Public Distribution System (PDS) CLUSTER - DEMO

14. NFSM – Commercial Crops  Demonstration on High Density Planting in Cotton  De-topping practices with IPM and INM strategies are also being demonstrated in Cotton  Sugarcane - Demonstrations including Integrated Water Management practices such as preparation of ridges and furrows for in-situ moisture conservation, alternate furrow irrigation and adoption of Drip and Fertigation system

15. Rabi Summer Pulses - 2015-16  9.241 lakh ha was covered under Pulses crop,  Nearly 7.544 lakh ha was covered during Rabi season.  In Rice fallow / Summer Pulses - 2.127 ha was covered  All the inputs like Certified seeds, Fertilizers, Plant Protection Bio Pesticides, Bio Agents etc. were stocked sufficiently to meet the demand  Demonstration on sowing & seed treatment of Bio fertilizers  Demonstration were laid to propagate IPM / Bird Perch.  Sprinkler irrigation / Raingun – under PMKSY were arrranged.  Awareness Campaign were organised at Village level & Publicity made through Vernacular news papers  Kisan SMS sending on weekly basis  Distribution of leaflets / Pamphlets  Training to farmers on INM/IPM for Pulses

16. Rabi / Summer Coarse Cereals  During 2015-16, 8.976 lakh Ha was covered under Coarse Cereals  In Rabi summer 50000 ha was covered out of 7.142 lakh ha More area was brought under Maize crop among Millets. Crop diversification from Higher Water Consumption crops like Banana and Turmeric was achieved. Soil health was improved by adding organic manures Availability of Certified seed / Hybrid varieties was ensured Sowing of seeds by formation of ridges and furrows for Maize was propagated Application of Liquid Bio-fertilizers and MN mixture – Technologies were disseminated to enhance the productivity of Maize. Thrust focus made on Integrated Weed management Nutritional security and income generation was ensured through value addition of Maize.
