Field Day on SRI in Irrigation Tank System on 27th November,
2008
WASSAN has
been working on various pilot initiatives related to Drought
Adaptation under the World Bank supported AP Drought
Adaptation Initiatives program in Mahabubnagar and Anatapur
districts, which are promoting System of Rice
Intensification (SRI) both under borewell and Tank systems
for almost 8 seasons by now. We are working closely with the
Department of Agriculture / ATMA, Mahabubnagar district in
this program. SRI
was practiced by 78 & 15 farmers in two Tanks with an area
of 107 and 7 acres in the Kharif season this year in Kottur
village,
Bomraspet Mandal of Mahabubnagar district. The crop is
mature and is about to be harvested. In addition there are
several farmers practicing SRI under borewells.This
field day is intended to analyse the learning from scaling
up strategies followed in this initiative successfully and
to provide policy inputs into NFSM and other programs.
Detailed data will also be compiled before the event and
presented during the field day.
