make necessary arrangement

Our official meet at his concerned district collector and plan about district

contingency plan

(A) General PracticesLand shaping and soil conservation including contour bonding should be practiced on a watershed basis. Adequate water harvesting and water storage practices should be adopted for use at later stages as supplementary irrigations. Land preparation operations should be completed before on-set of monsoon so that timely sowing can be done with soaking rains.Set rows if practiced should be across the general slope of the field.Organic manure like F.Y.M. and compost manure and recommended dose of fertilizer should be applied.Sowing of groundnut, pearl-millet, sorghum and cotton with the onset of monsoon is quite necessary. Proper plant stand establishment will help in making full use of limited water available for the crops.Inter-culturing and weeding should be done timely.Seed treatment and timely plant protection measures should be adopted.Mixed/inter-cropping practices are profitable.0 

To minimize risk under sole crop of groundnut inter-cropping of groundnut

and castor in 3:1 ratio of crop rows in retentive soils should be followed.

Mixed/inter-cropping system should be included in the farm planning

1. Cotton + groundnut in 2:1 ratio

2. Groundnut + pigeon pea in 3:1 ratio

3. Pearl millet + Pigeon pea in 2:1 ratio

4. Groundnut + Castor in 3:1 ratio

5. Maize + Tur in 1:1 ratio,

6. Drilled Paddy + Tur in 2:1 ratio

Excessive inter culturing does not help in increasing crop yields so, does

not do this operation frequently

Sesamum : Purva-1Castor : GCH-2, GCH-4, GCH-5, GCH-6, GCH-7Sorghum : Fodder typeIf rains are delayed till last week of July, it is not suggested to sow groundnut, pearl millet or sorghum (Grain purpose).

In Lakh Ha.

•Thinning the plant population

•Minimize evaporation losses through complete removal of weeds.

•Apply supplementary irrigation at critical stages if water available

•Harvest at intervals as the plants show physiological maturity.

•Run-off collections in the early part of the monsoon can be used for

supplemental irrigation in the later part of the crops life cycle.
