More information on use of Azola need to be given Programme Coordinators from nearby KVKs are to be invited for SAC meeting While using the insecticides in Mulberry cultivation farmers are to be educated about the 25 days safety period to be maintained To take up Frontline Demonstrations where the Watershed Department have taken up different activities for improving the problematic soils FLDs to concentrate on the use of good varieties instead of using the hybrid vegetable varieties

Action Plan for 2010-11 of KVK, Mandya

6 The farmers are be made known about the common names along with trade name of the hormones used for the uniform ripening of the silk worms A study should be taken up to study the impact of use of Co-3 forage crop on milk yield The variety GPBD-4 or the variety suitable to the zone may be taken instead of D.H-86 in Oilseed Demonstration and as groundnut grown area is very limited in Mandya district if it is not possible to cover 15 ha. demonstration, zonal project director to be informed about that so that it can be taken up in other centers Focus to be on introducing the improved varieties in Pulse crop particularly in horse gram Demonstration to be taken up on use of paddy transplanter

TABLE. 3 PLAN OF ON FARM TESTING FOR 2010-11 OFT-1. Drum seeder method of sowing in hybrid paddy 1. Title of the On Farm Trial: Drum seeder method of sowing in hybrid paddy 2. State whether it is Assessment / Refinement: Assessment 3. Agro-Ecological Zone: Zone-VI 4. Production System : Irrigated 5.Problem identified: High cost on transplanting of single seedlings of hybrid paddy and scarcity of labour 6. Number of farmers and area affected in the operational villages: 106 farmers, 48 ha. 7. Thrust areas: Improper spacing & drudgery 8. Rationale for proposing the OFT : Reduces the cost of transplanting in turn lowers cost of cultivation in nursery maintenance 9. Technology Option 1 {Farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s practice and extent of yield loss} :10. Technology Option 2 with Source {Recommended practice and extent of its adoption}
