way to irrigate almost any crop on varied terrain and soils to
increase yields and better utilize natural resources.

About Pivots Irrigation systemFully automated continuous move
irrigation.Water evenly distributed in the soilPrecise water
placement within the root zoneFertilizers/chemicals applied with
same precision as irrigation water prevents percolation or
runoff.Versatility in sprinkler packages and options to match soil
and crop type.Day or night irrigation.Chemigation and fertigation
is efficient.Spoon-feeding of fertilizer provides timely
application and better plant utilization of nutrients Reduces loss
of fertilizers/chemicals to leaching or runoffLow operating cost
per acre, low labor requirementsLife span of 20 years or more

Objectives
Need to understand the project site-soil, resource availability,
topography, water sources, irrigation method and fixing dimensional
coordinates.Mapping out the land size by the help of GPS machine
for Pivots installation. Catch-can experiment for yield measurement
for Hose reel.Understanding Farmers perception and
mind-set.Presenting a potential plan to Govt. officials for
implementation of proposed Irrigation Project with potential
subsidy.
Presented by. Sumanta Kumar Sahu . VAMNICOM, Pune
Scope of ProjectHose Reel Irrigation System- small and marginal
farmers will be benefitted.Pivots irrigation method- Large farmers
will get benefitted.Using Hose reel and Pivots in the farm will
help to enhance the productivity.Utilisation of less man-power
therefore saving labour cost and using that labour for other
critical operations like weeding etc.Minimization of water wastage
& increasing irrigation efficiency.

SuggestionIntroduction Pivots and Hose reel irrigation
system-company should focus on large farmers.Pivots system -company
need to find out bigger land parcel.Need to install a demo setup of
pivots and hose reel.The company should try to get subsidy for
irrigation method to get accepted by the farmers.The company should
focus on small/ marginal farmers for Hose reel irrigation
system.Both irrigation system need to get approval from GOVT. of
AP. Presented by. Sumanta Kumar Sahu . VAMNICOM, Pune
ConclusionAs per agro climatic conditions and sources
availability at Anantapur district ,the farmers must get a
productivity value by the help of the innovative and effective
irrigation technology (Pivots and Hose reel irrigation).
