Proceedings of Eighth Scientific Advisory Committee Meeting of KVK Bagalkot

held on 22-07-2009 The meeting started under the chairmanship of Dr. R. R. Hanchinal, the Director of Extension, UAS Dharwad with the formal welcome by the Programme Coordinator, KVK Bagalkot. The following are the important suggestions.

- Shri. B. M. Desai, President of District Krishika Samaja suggested to take up thorn less bamboo though there is no staff of Agro-forestry. The house suggested to take up this activity with the help of other development departments.

- Shri. V. S. Halolli, LDM, Syndicate Bank suggested to document the Success stories of the farmers who have adopted Bio-digesters in the district.

- Director of Extension suggested to establish one such model at KVK, Bagalkot. - Sri. B. M. Desai necessitated the need for analyzing the components of the slurry coming

out of the Bio-digester. In this aspect there was discussion among the members and the house opined that there will be variation in the components of the slurry based on the raw material used in the Bio-digester at different days of interval.

- Shri. R. S. Ramamurthy, Representative from ZPD, ICAR Zone VIII, Bengaluru suggested Programme Assistant (Computer) to create the 10 years database with respect to Bagalkot district in all the aspects viz., talukas, villages, cropping pattern, problems associated and asked to provide a softcopy to all the line departments.

- As regards introduction of new groundnut varieties in place of TMV-2, Director of Extension suggested to ensure the availability of seed materials of new introductions. In the case of onion, Arka kalyan, N-53 can be introduced in place of Telagi red. Further seed production on new varieties can be taken up on priority basis. There is heavy demand for sugarcane sets and hence multiplication of popular sugarcane varieties to be taken up by this KVK. 1. Sugarcane sets 2. Arka Kalyan 3. Wheat UAS 415 4. DDK 1029

- Home Science division should involved in conducting skill oriented training programmes.

- As regards establishing of only one Farmers Field School per year, the number should be increased with the help of ATMA.

- Dr. Mahadeviah, Executive Director, BEC-STEP, Bagalkot said to have collaborative projects in relation to self life extension, storage of food grains. But DE clearly said that KVK will only give technical guidance and will not have any sponsoring.

- Shri. Ramamurthy suggested to arrange vocational trainings separately. - Shri. B. M. Desai, suggested to have database of the crop/activities before conducting the

FLD that are to be taken up by the KVK. - Shri. H. D. Kolekar, ADA Watershed said there is increasing problematic soils in the

district and it is now to the tune of 20,000 ha. In this regard the KVK should work out the technologies to be used to overcome the problematic soil. DE, suggested to go for more

7

FLDs on usage of Micronutrients. In groundnut, micronutrients such as Zinc, Boran, Iron Sulphate should be used in FLD. In problematic soils KRL 1-4 variety of wheat can be grown. The soil analysis of these soils in the talukas of Jamakhandi, Mudhol, Badami, Bilagi should be taken up with the help of sugarcane industries.

- Seed production of cotton could be taken up in Hungund taluka instead of Mudhol and Jamakhandi.

- In response to presentation by Dr. R. Veeranna on Banana FLDs, Shri.Ramamurthy wanted to know the interventions used to increase in the yield should be mentioned.

- Ramamurthy sir suggested to use same wordings in Kannada for OFTs by all the KVKs. - The FLD size should be minimum of 5 ha. and maximum of 20 ha. for oilseeds and

pulses. - Shri. S. B. Diddimani, Deputy Director of Horticulture indicated the necessity to identify

the bottlenecks for low productivity. DDH suggested to popularize Bordeaux mixture in collaboration with Horticulture department.

- Sri. Ramamurthy suggested to select such farmers who are elite, skilled, specialists and showing interests and then train them even to organize the activities whatever they have learnt.

- Further they emphasized for the “Integration of the Technology vis-a-visa Knowledge among the KVK Scientists” for effective and quick problem solution.

- Shri. N. Ravikumar, DDM, NABARD said that they have FTTF for which activities to be identified by the KVK suitable for the district.NABARD is ready to finance skill development programmes.

- Shri. Ramamurthy urged the University to fill the all the ICAR sanctioned vacant positions in the KVK viz., Office superintendent-cum- Accountant, Stenographer, Driver and Supporting staff at the earliest.

- Shri. R. S. Ramamurthy suggested all the scientists of the KVK to follow the “Cluster Village Concept” for effective dissemination of the technology i.e., FLD’s and OFT’s.

- Finally meeting ended with formal vote of thanks by Dr. R. Veeranna, SMS (Entomology).

1 Black Soils Possess a characteristically dark colour, ranging from dark brown to deep black. They are high in clay content, clay mostly belong to montmorillonitic group, and are sticky and plastic when wet. They show strong swelling and shrinkage with changes in moisture content and produce deep and wide cracks. Their limitation for crop production is because of their poor tillage and poor drainage. The black color may be due to presence of clay- humus complexes or titaniferous-magnetite compounds. The soils classified as shallow – possessing a depth of 30 cm or less, medium – 30 to 100 cm and deep black soils – 100 to 200 cm or even more. According to soil taxonomy the common orders, sub orders and great groups of black soils are as follows. Order – Vertisol Sub order – Torrerts and Usterts Great group – Torritorrerts, Usttorrerts, Torriusterts and Ustusterts

2 Red Soils Well-drained soils, with clay enriched subsoil developed from granite, gnesis or schists under subtropical climate. The normal red soils have a pH around neutrality or acidic side. The A-horizon is dark reddish brown while B-horizon may have a dark brown color. The clay minerals become coated with red hematite or yellow limonite forming a reddish-yellow soil. Impure iron, alumina-silica concretions and quartz are common constituents of red soil. According to soil taxonomy the common orders, sub orders and great groups of red soils are as follows. Order – Alfisol and Ultisol Sub order – Ustalfs, Ustults, Aqults Great group – Haplustalfs, Rhodustalfs, Paleustalfs, Haplustults, Rhodoustults, Ochraquults

participation / other scoring techniques : Yield a. Farmer’s practice – Got 11.6 q/ha fruit yield without control of fruit and shoot borer b. Recommended practice – Gave 16.6 q/ha yield with moderate control of fruit and shoot

borer c. Alternate practice – Gave 81% increase in fruit yield over farmers practice (21 q/ha)

with better control of fruit and shoot borer 8 Final recommendation for micro level situation : Following of alternate practice will

reduce the fruit and shoot borer incidence, thus giving higher fruit yield. 9 Constraints identified and feedback for research : - 10 Process of farmers participation and their reaction : Farmers actively participated and

they were happy with increased yields and there is no fruit and shoot borer.

Title : Intensive goat farming Background : Goats are among the main meat producing animals in Bagalkot district, Whose meat (Chevan) is one of the choicest meat and has huge domestic demand. Due to its good economic prospect goat rearing under intensive system for commercial production has been gaining momentum for the past couple of years. An unemployed Diploma graduate Mr. Ramanna Kadakol resident of village Alagoor, Dist. Bagalkot visited different goat units and interested go for goat rearing in large scale. He is having 7 acres of sugarcane crop which is the one of the major commercial crop in the district. Because of continuos use of chemical fertilizer results in decreased soil fertilizer and drastic reduction of sugarcane yield. This condition forced him to think about organic farming and he consulted KVK regarding information related to goat rearing. He attended training programme conducted by KVK and veterinary departments. Later he decided to go for intensive goat farming. He established the farm with 50 goats under stall fed intensive system of management. Initially he faced lot of problems, after taking suggestions, technical guidance from KVK scientists. His goat farming became viable and profitable.

Interventions : Process : KVK conducted different training programmes on goat rearing aspects. KVK guided him with regard to type of fodder crops to be grown and also efforts have been made to link with IGFRI (Indian Grassland and Fodder Research Institute), Dharwad for procurement of fodder root slips / seeds to increase his productivity. KVK has also made an effort to link him with Veterinary University for preparing pure breed animals as breeding stock and effective market strategy and strengthen linkage with the other farmers. In association with Animal Husbandry Department conducted various health camps. Vaccination programmes, method demonstrations like dipping, deworming to improve health management of goat. Technology impact : After introducing enough technology in his goat farm, his goat farming because viable and profitable. Presently he is having 300 goats in his farm and he is earning 3.5 to 4.0 lakh net income. He sells his goat only on live body weight.Mr. Ramanna has become a well recognized commercial goat farmer of North Karnataka region and various related government departments, NGO’s and farmers consider him as Progressive Goat Farmer. He is being invited as a resource person on goat husbandry in different training programmes. Till date about 500 farmers and trainers have visited his farm. After seeing his success in this enterprise a near by village called Madarkhandi. A farmer basically engineer has also started goat rearing with 100 goats. Many more farmers are coming forward to start intensive goat farming. 10.D. Give details of innovative methodology or innovative technology of Transfer of

Technology developed and used during the year

I. Name of the innovation : Drought proofing in water scare (Arabaradage entane bele or fifty per cent crop during half drought)

a. Description of innovation : Innovation involves how efficiently one can catch rain in the fields and check soil erosion in order to conserve moisture under dryland situation. Technique involves construction of earthen bunds across the slow and holagatti or gundavarthi (waste weirs) to safely allow the excess runoff outside. The method is based on two principles a) Allowing only excess water – if any – and not top soil from the fields to flow away, b) Levelling the field in a

66

such way that the maximum area gets uniformly wet even with a small rain. Those farmers who follow these techniques are able to get arabaradagu entane bele – a kannada saying meaning fifty per cent crop during drought or guaranteed half a crop even during semi or full drought. The principle is simple one putting earthern bund across the slope and constructing gundavarthi. To safely allow the excess water outside and as still advanced step sloping fields will be leveled into smaller plots without slopes. The last method requires huge investment and it has to be taken up in phased manner. The success of drought proofing critically depends on the amount of angala (well leveled field area) a farmer achieves. The larger the leveled area, the more of the crop that gets moisture from a single rain even if the surrounding areas / neighbouring fields cannot support any crop, this moist belt yields its harvest without fail.

II. Problem statement

a. Nature and intensity of the problem addressed : Bagalkot district in the Karnataka receives the least rainfall in the state i.e. 543 mm annually with 30-35 rainy days, which is again uncertain, erratic, irregular and having high intensity causing serious soil and water erosion. The productive rainfall may have been even less. Farmer in the semi arid area grow food grains under rainfed conditions that cannot with stand very long gaps of rain in the monsoon and in even years of normal rain. Their crop can fail if there are long gaps between the showers. The problem is uniform throughout the region with least variability on individual farmer’s field.

b. Genesis of idea : Late Shri Sanganabasappa Nagaral Dr. Mallann’s grandfather had a special passion for agriculture. He wanted to do something that would make agriculture sustainable. The turning point came when Saint Ghanamath’s Shivayogi visited Hungund in the first decade of last century. He was not an ordinary saint. He had studied various dimensions of agriculture in different agroclimatic conditions and was wrote a book based on his observations. When Sanganbasappa Nagaral saw the draft of Krishi Gyan Pradeepika he copied the entire book manually soon Sanganabasappa started experimenting methods of soil and water conservation considering the guidelines in the book. The contents were so impressive that Sanganabasappa read it to 6-7 times. In the process it turned out to be his guiding light for the rest of the life. After implementing the guidelines given in the book he realized that these would save lack of dryland farmer of Bayalu sime (Plat land) out from the deadly jaws of the drought. The said idea was carried forward and refined by his successors Late Shri Shankaranna Nagaral and now Dr. Mallanna.

c. Sources of information relevant to the innovation : Dr. Mallana Nagaral ancestors namely Grandfather Sanganabasappa and father Sankranna’s inherent knowledge about soil and water conservation. Sankranna Nagaral’s poems to make people aware about soil erosion the importance of bunds, crop rotation, necessity of tree based farmings. A unique book written by Saint 170 years ago i.e. Krishi Gyan Pradeepika

d. Original innovation or modification of nay existing technology : The innovation was originally recorded in the Krishi Gyan Pradeepika written by Saint Ghanamath Shivoyogi. But its practical implementation, modification and refinement to suit to actual situation (varies from field to field) over a period of time and so on is being done by three generation of Nagaral’s families at present Dr. Mallanna Shanaranna Nagaral.

III. Process of technology development

a. Conceptualization of idea : Water availability is major limiting factor for crop production, since rain is main and most variable source of water in dryland. Another problem being encountered is soil erosion. These two laid conceptualization of idea to construct bunds to stop soil erosion and waste weirs / hologatti / gundavarthi to let out the excess runoff outside

67

without carring soil particles along with regulation of standing water in the field to desired time for harvesting assured yield.

b. Scientific rationale about the innovation : Rainfed farming constitutes more than 75 per cent of the cultivable area of the country in the past and at present also where rainfall determines the crop production outcomes. The vagaries and vicissitudes of the monsoon have rendered the economic condition of millions of farmers highly fragile and precarious. So water is the only source of water for sustainanace of rainfed agriculture. Success depends on its maximum utilization from the area. Therefore, rain water can be conserved, utilized and managed at best.

c. Experimentation / trail conducted : Sanganabasappa and Shankranna grandfather and father of Dr. Mallanna Nagaral respectively initially choosed the 28 acre at Ramavadagi village of Hunagund taluk in Bagalkot district in Karantaka state for to start with. The field was visibly in fertile according to Dr. Mallanna. It was very tough to plough the field as it was hard. Soil would chip of farmers legs and also pain buffaloes. Such an unconditioned farm his best suited to experiment activities. He first concentrated on construction bunds to stop soil degradation. The intension was to give each and every point of land, the shape of palm with high borders on all four sides. Border check water inside the farm and the shape helps soil to maintain moisture on all side. Success was followed this i.e. wherever construction of bunds and waste weirs were taken up systematically no drought was able to snatch away a particular from harvest.

d. Technical support during the experimentation period : It was derived by the fellow farmers of Nagaral’s family in the form of work support.

e. Supporting data for the innovation : Indigenous techniques of soil and moisture conservation and runoff management Dr. Mallanna were technically observed, evaluated an analysed by team of Scientists of UAS, Dharwad and sufficient data had been generated and were on par with Dr. Mallanna’s observation and sayings.

f. Any source mobilization from outside for the development of innovation : The entire work was carried out without a single paise of grant / funding / subsidy from public sector organization / foundation and others.

g. Relative advantages of innovation (Attributes like adaptability, eco-friendliness, sustainability, gender friendliness, economical viability, benefit-cost ratio etc) :

• Helps in soil and water conservation leading to sustainability of rainfed farming even under low moisture situation.

• Situation specific easily adaptable technology

• Uniform distribution of water along the bund

• Eco-friendly

• Holagatti need maintenance occasionally

• Economically viable though a bit expensive

• Escape from drought on long term basis (generation together)

• Even single good shower leads to harvest without fail.

68

• Stops migration of people due to hunger

IV. Replication and promotion

a. Horizontal spread of innovation and no. of farmers adopting : Innovations had spread in all the directions of the area and even beyond. It is difficult to get a farm without drought proofing structure in the region.

b. Socio-economic implications :

• Most of the villagers who follow drought proofing technique did not have to buy food grains from outside nor was there migration due to hunger

• Farmers had pains takingly prepare their lands to harvest all the rain even if a single good shower was all that they get in a cropping season.

• Directly or indirectly atleast 500 families in the taluk earn their square meals from drought proofing work.

c. Presentation of innovation in scientific forums : Dr. Mallanna S. Nagaral, honorary Doctoratee of UAS, Dharwad used to be invited by Universities, state development departments namely, Agriculture, Horticulture and water shed alongwith many NGO’s and other development foundations to present his experiences on drought proofing through soil and water conservation regularly throughout the year and across the sate. Besides Dr. Mallana was a star attraction in the rural meetings as well as in a water awareness mask campaign – Jala Jathre of the Karnataka state.

d. Publication on the innovation in farm journals : Innovation was being published in magazine , daily newspapers etc. Few were : 1) Shopan STEP (March 2010), 2) Civil Society (September – October 2007), 3) Reddy balaga (October 2006), 4) Taranad (June 2005), 5) Sudha (May 2006), 6) Karmaveer (August 2006), 7) Sharad Krishi, 8) Krishi Munande, 9) Deccan Hearald

e. Media coverage of the innovation – TV, News paper, radio talk etc., : DD Chandan Kannada Vahini, Kannada E-TV, All India Radio Gulbarga and Dharwad have broadcast / telecast his innovation works.

f. Display of innovation in exhibitions / kisan melas etc. : Regularly in Krishimela of UAS, Dharwad and in other conveyances of the region.

g. Income generated out of this innovation by the innovator : Income generated by innovation by the family his nill but benefits in the form of employment to rural people, assured bread and eco-advantages were huge and non quantifiable. The entire goes to Nagaral’s family as they set their profession aside then they traveled and now also traveling widely inside the taluk and beyond to physically guide and supervise the construction of bunds and weirs of drought proofing work.

h. Feedback from farmers and other agencies : Three generation of a farming family in Hungund taluk of Bagalkot district accompanied drought proofing in the fields to conserve the soil and water. Atleast a dozen workers trained under late Shankranna Nagaral and the now Dr. Mallana Nagaral have full time employment in this art of drought proofing technology. This was viewed and expressed by society and other development agencies.

11.B. Cases of large scale adoption Name and address of KVK : Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Bagalkot. Karnataka Title of the case study : Vermicompost Situation of background :

Before independence and also after independence most of the Indian farmers doesn’t have idea about the usage of chemicals and fertilizers. Due to enormous increasing population invariably to boost agricultural production emphasis is given to high yielding varieties, fertilizers and chemicals, mechanization in agriculture. Because of most of the Indian farmers cultivating the crops using fertilizers and plant chemicals to increase the agricultural production. Even though increases the agricultural production, simultaneously it causes environmental effects like deterioration of soil health, animal health and bio-diversity. Since productivity is decreased every year and not reached the target due to imbalance of nutrients availability through soil to plant, soil health is also declining every year. To enhance the agricultural production and India must go back to it’s original agricultural practices and thinking in that line government of India introduces the organic fertilizers and chemicals to grow the crops and sustain the soil health using the biofertilizers, bioagents, biopesticides and vermicompost. Recently the district farmers also facing the problem of inadequate supply of fertilizers and chemicals. Knowing this krishi vigyan Kendra, Bagalkot started the training programme to rural youths, farmers and farm women on vermicomposting during the year 2007-08. Veeranna G. Tolamatti is 29 year old farmer native of Sunaga, Bilagi(Tq). Bagalkot.(Dt) He was thrown out of his family by his elder brother and was given 5 Acre of land with no irrigation facility and Rs. 50.000/ loan on his head. He is graduate in Arts. He was planned to go

71

to Mangalore as labor and When he read an article regarding vermicomposting. He approached Krishi Vigyan Kendra and Extension Education Unit, Bagalkot for technical help accordingly the situation was analyzed thoroughly and finally arrived at conclusion that vermicomposting can solve his problems. Thus low cost structure were established he was asked to collect the dung on to the road side as he was not having purchasing power. The crop residues and the water was collected from the neighboring farmers field. Initially seven (7) pits of size 10 m (length) and 1 m (breadth x 0.3 m (Ht.) were constructed with locally available stone at the land of his own and the procurement of vermicompost responsible was borne by KVK / EEU for sale on UAS brand. All the necessary technical advice was given by frequent visit of KVK / EEU Scientist during the first year. The total out put was 3 t/pit, altogether it was 21 to 24 tons, 3 tons was utilized for his own land and the crop was grown entirely using vermicompost, rest of the 21 ton was procured by KVK @ 1800/ton. Later the number of pits were increased to 15 in different models using low cost construction materials and the units was shaded with wooden polls and sugarcane trash and typha, over that the keeping vegetable like beans and guards were grown organically and were sold in the Bagalkot market under the organic produce banner. The income from sale by vermicompost was utilized in clearing off his loan growing the neighboring farmer stopped providing water and the farmer was forced to shift his units from his field to his own farm. One and half year later, he dig out his own bore well and the entire farm was made irrigated. Presently he utilizes nearly 15 to 20 tons of vermicompost for production of sugarcane and other crops using only vermicompost and now he is rearing 3 cows for milk and manure purpose. The remaining vermicompost that is produced extra is sold to the neighboring farmers. The KVK procured the vermicompost and support him marketing the produce and to create awareness by quality of vermicomposting and its impact on soil health and the crop produce to the farmers of the district.

Reaction of farmer about Farmers Field School

Farmer Field School (FFS) is the most distinguished feature of adult learning and Integrated Crop

Management would seem a more appropriate proposition for enhancing farmers’ knowledge and improving

their practices not only in pest management, but also in the entire crop management strategies. The farmer’s

reaction was as follows.

Earlier, we did not know what ‘smooth land’ is and when exactly we have to apply fertilizer. Now

we know many things about that. We used to apply fertilizer even though the soil moisture content was

either high or low. Now we know that also.

The yield increased and we also used fewer amounts of seed than before. Earlier, we used excess

seeds. Now we use only three fourth of this and maintaining required population.

When I followed Integrated Crop Management (IPM) practice, I could increase yield from 31 to 36 quintals

per ha.

Earlier we used to burn crop/other straw in the field. Now we planned to incorporate it in the soil

within crop fields.

Feed back

Farmers were being convinced about application and importance of each input and method of

demonstration used in the farm school.

Farmers were realized about the application of micronutrients in balanced fertilization of crops

both macro and micronutrients in obtaining enhanced yield.

They expressed their willingness about poison bait usage in management army worm in maize.
