G . Total:- 28.87 16.92

Two Crops namely Gram & Lentil are taken under Cluster Demonstration in seven district

iv. Steps Taken to Implement Cropping System Based Demonstration: Selection of Area in Cluster having low

productivity. Training to Farmers. Timely arrangements of Inputs. Timely Sowing of Crop, use of machinery. Weed and Nutrient Management. Integrated Pest Management

v. Learning from Implementation of Coarse Cereals Component (Maize) : Scope for Bringing more area under High

Yielding Hybrid Maize Varieties. Weed Management for higher productivity. Integrated Pest Management & Farmers

Field Schools. 100% Seed Treatment. Balance Fertilizer use through Soil health

Cards.
