英文摘要 | Crop production is a direct output of manageable (agronomic) and unmanageable (weather) inputs. A farmer can cut down losses in crop production due to aberrant weather conditions by following the weather forecast. The India Meteorological Department is providing a weather forecast on eight weather parameters at district and block level. Under the All India Coordinated Research Project on Agrometeorology-National Innovations in Climate Resilient Agriculture, an Agromet Advisory Bulletin (AAB) is prepared by using this forecast for the coming five days and disseminated to farmers. To evaluate the impact of AAB in three selected villages, Badoshe Kalan and Bauranga Zer (district Fatehgarh Sahib) and Rampur Fasse (district Rupnagar) a survey of 110 farmers was conducted. Amongst the 110 farmers, 70 were marginal/small farmers (landholding < 2.0ha) and 40 were medium farmers (landholding 2-10ha) who adopted the information given by AAB in crop cultivation. The analysis revealed that by following AAB in rice and wheat crops 65-93% farmers benefitted by managing biotic stresses, 65-85% farmers by irrigation management, 75-78% farmers by adjusting sowing and 62-65% farmers by nutrient management. The farmers who scheduled irrigation for their crops by adopting AAB in the rice-wheat cropping system reduced similar to 34.2 metric tonnes of CO2 emissions by preventing wasteful burning of diesel. The adopters of AAB in rice and wheat crop were able to harness an average yield increase of 2.25-3.75q/ha and 1.75-4.50 q/ha, respectively and save nearly Rs 4100 to 7000/ha and Rs 3200-9200/ha, respectively with less expenditure. Hence, AAB can help boost crop productivity as well as help reduce carbon footprints and make agriculture an eco-friendly and profitable venture. |
