cultivation with
inter-crop
Determination of alternate Crops to paddy
( mung, urd,arhar, soyabean, til ,maize, cotton, cluster bean
etc.)
Identification of inter-crops in agro-forestry
based cropping system
(Poplar/Eucalyptus plantation- cereals, pulses, oilseeds,
fodder crops, spices, vegetables etc.)
Determination of concomitant Technologies
( resource conservation technologies-zero tillage, MISdrip & Sprinkler, green manuring, use of INM)
Identification of districts for CDP
