BRG-4 is a good variety; yield is very good even in delayed condition where other farmer thought the crop will not come at all. Variety is ideal for August sowing as it branches more and can produce good yield considering its duration Now the knowledge about presence of variety for late sowing and yield potential is overcome availability of seeds at right time is a major constraint The trial was conducted in farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s field itself so the surrounding and participating farmers know the potential and benefit of the new variety, they are happy and ready to accept the technology. Now they have come out misconception that redgram cannot be sown in august and late sown redgram does not flower and produce grain/yield

Process of farmers participation and their reaction

Enrichment of Coir pith with Trichoderma harzianum and Pseudomonas florescence performed better in cent percent reduction in seedling mortality at nursery as well as in field. Plant height, no. of fruits/plant and yield was also higher in the same treatment. Enrichment of coir pith compost with bio- control agents at nursery and drenching of seedlings with the same before transplanting in the main field is very effective in controlling soil borne diseases. Awareness and method demonstration programmes are required at the field level Non availability of bio-control agents at local level Technology demonstration was accepted by both nurseries and farmers, the same being horizontally spread to the neighboring vegetable nurseries and farmers.

10. C. Success Stories / Case studies, if any (two or three pages write-up on each case with suitable action photographs. The Success Stories / Case Studies need not be restricted to the reporting period). Title: DRUM SEEDING IN PADDY Paddy an important food crop grown in Mandya district, farmers have realised that paddy cultivation is not profitable due to increased cost of production and decreasing yield resulting in lower profit. Non availability and higher cost of labour at critical stages like transplanting and weeding leads to higher cost and delay in carrying out these operations leading to reduced yield. Besides, delay in the onset of monsoon and unequal distribution of rain is affecting the normal operation of paddy cultivation. The solution to these problems and to make paddy cultivation profitable is use of DRUM SEEDER for direct sowing of paddy. Sri Shivaramu S/o Marichennaiah, Sampahalli village, Mandya taluk after passing pre university (12th) entered farming to support his fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s profession. In his three acres of land, he could grow only paddy as the soil was not suitable to grow any crop. After KVK intervention about DRUM SEEDER technology with a simple, light weight implement which costs about Rs. 5000=00. The farmer is practicing this technology in his one acre paddy since 10 years. Pre-germinated seeds are filled in the drums and passed in the puddle, levelled, well drained field and seeds are directly sown in rows which can cover 2.5 acres a day. As there is no need for nursery preparation and transplanting he is saving around Rs.1500 and also saving seed cost as the seed requirement is less (12kg/ acre) compare to traditional method (25 Kg/ac). Weeding, a major operation which requires more labour and it is done easily by using cono weeder which costs Rs. 800 and Rs.1000 is saved in weeding. Passing of cono weeder aerates, increases soil nutrient uptake and enhance water use efficiency. Weeds removed along with roots and incorporated in to the soil improves soil organic matter content as well as fertility. Hence, there will be more number of tillers, higher plant growth and yield. As the field is kept only wet, no standing water during early stage of crop water is saved. In drum seeded crop there is no transplanting shock the crop mature 10 days earlier Now he is serving as resource person in the KVK programmes also encouraging many fellow farmers to adopt this simple technology. This technology could save Rs. 3000-4000 when compared to transplanting method of paddy cultivation. The farmer is getting higher paddy yield (30q/ac) in comparison to transplanting method (22-25q/ac). Mr. Shivaram expresses that this technology has benefited him in saving money, time and other resources. Hence, Drum seeder a low cost technology is a boon to paddy growing farmers. Now he is serving as resource person in the KVK programmes also encouraging many fellow farmers to adopt this simple technology. During 2012-13 the area under drum seeded paddy cultivation in the district was around 410 acres. Title: Sugarcane Trash Management for Rejuvenation of Soil Health Usual practice followed by farmers is burning trash after the harvest of sugarcane. About 7.5-10 tons of trash can be obtained from 1 ha sugarcane field. Every ton of sugarcane trash contains about 5.4 kg N, 1.3 kg P2O5, 3.1 kg K2O and traces of micronutrients. However, when sugarcane trash is burnt, most of the organic matter and nutrients in the trash destroyed, leading to environmental pollution and decreased micro bial activity. Integrated Sugarcane Trash Management is highly beneficial and helps in conserving the soil moisture and nutrients which inturn improves soil health. Sri Dhananjaya S/o Siddegowda, Mallanayakanakatte, Mandya taluk with the guidance of Krishi Vigyan Kendra, V.C.Farm, Mandya has been practicing this technology from past 8 years.

83 The technology involves complete soaking of trash; Mulching of sugarcane trash in alternate rows; Broadcasting of 75 kg/ha Urea on trash; Application of 500 kg of FYM enriched with 25kg microbial culture (Trichoderma viridae) on trash followed by Stubble shaving, shoulder breaking, gap filling and regular ratoon sugarcane cultivation practices. The Sugarcane Trash Management resulted in increased OC content of the soil from 0.42 to 0.68 per cent over the years, on an average 3 per cent increase in the available nitrogen in Sugarcane Trash Management soil. Simillarly, available P and K content of the soil also increased considerably. Sugarcane Trash Management showed higher germination percentage and 15-20 days early maturation in comparison to trash burning. Earlier he was used to get 30-32 tons of cane yield per acre after following trash mulching technology he is getting 58-60 tons per acre. The trash mulching has an added advantage of moisture conservation, weed control, increased soil biological activity and increased number of earthworms, which eventually resulted in increased yield. Though the average cost involved in Trash Management was marginally higher in comparison to trash burning, the net income obtained over the years was in increasing trend. The Farmers opined that Trash Management is highly beneficial and helped in conserving the soil moisture which decreased the number & frequency of irrigation to sugarcane crop. The trash mulching helped in improving soil health which can be realized with increased number of earthworms in soil. This technology can be adopted without hampering the ratoon sugarcane cultivation practices, which resulted in increased cane yield and the present net income of the farmer is around Rs.1,00,000 per acre. Area under trash mulching in sugarcane in the district during 2012-13 was around 17,275 acres. 10.D.
