1st Annual Progress Report
September 2012- August 2013
Preamble: Janakalyan, with the financial assistance of NABARD, has proposed to
initiate an innovative intervention in tail end of Tungabhadra Irrigation Project in
Sindhanur taluk of Raichur district to develop a model to address 2-extremes ofwater availability. It has commenced from September 2012 for 3 years todemonstrate the proposed technology and prove it as a financially viable model forthe farmers of any tail end in India. This report is prepared at the end of 1
st year of
intervention to document the process followed in implementing the program.
Context: Due to partition of the country, millions of Bengalis lost their ancestral
properties and had to find their new abode in India as per the terms and conditionsof partition. About 932 such families were rehabilitated in Sindhanur taluk of Raichur
district in Karnataka with 4-5 acres of land in the tail end of Tungabhadra Irrigation
Project. This piece of land is the only source of their livelihoods and all theserefugees are solely dependent on it for their survival. There are about 4 suchrehabilitation colonies in Sindhanur Rehabilitation Project.
Problem/issue: All tail ends of irrigation projects are exposed to a peculiar problem
i.e. two extremes of water availabilit y. During rainy season, when the upper reach
farmers don’t want water for irrigation and also the runoff gets generated out ofexcess rain, they leave it through the canal which inundates the standing crops oftail end farmers. In the peak season, when the water is seriously in need by the tail
end farmers, it is being completely used by the upper reach farmers leavinginadequate quantum after satisfying their needs, thereby causing drying up ofstanding crops again at the tail end. Realizing the fact over a period of time, thefarmers now cultivate part of the land considering the water availability in peak
season keeping rest fallow throughout the year.
Hypothesis/Theme: “Water is life” but is the scarcest resource too; provide water to
the farmers, they would ensure food security of the nation. God provided enoughwater in the nature which we don’t use judiciously when made available but blame
the God or Government for the shortfall. Rural godowns are promoted by NABARDto arrest wastage of food grains likewise ‘water storage tanks’ need to be promotedto reduce wastage of the scarcest resource, the water.
Model to be tested: Excavation of a water storage structure in the fallow land to
store the excess water during rainy season and using the same for lifesaving
irrigation during the peak season would not only address loss of crops due to 2-extremes of water availability but also help to use the fallow land productively byintegrating fish in the tank. Various other productive units such as vegetables,
fodder with cows, fruits & tree crops, etc. could also be added to distribute risk ofcrop failures and thereby broadening the economic base of the family.

“More Crop Per Drop”
Addressing 2-extremes of water availability to improve productivity
in tail end of irrigation project JANAKALYAN
The program commenced in September 2012 with the financial support of NABARDin Sindhanur Rehabilitation Project. This report is prepared at the end of 1
st year of
the project intervention to document the process and progress.
Objectives…..
Basically, the program aims the following-
1) Creation of Water Harvesting Structures at the tail end of Tungabhadra IrrigationProject.
2) Bring in additional area under irrigated crops through judicious application ofwater.
3) Increase productivity of the land through assured irrigation4) Enhance farm income by adding various productive units to the farm with risk
distribution through multiple sources of income tot the family throughout the year.
Activities Completed so far…..
Major activities carried out during the period are documented in the followingparagraphs in order to achieve the set target.1) Project Concept Orientation to 56 farmers through one to one interactions2) Awareness generation about NABARD supported project in these villages
3) Social feasibility study of these farms by Janakalyan team4) Technical feasibility study of the proposed water harvesting structures5) Finalizing the list of potential farmers for water harvesting structure excavation6) Actual excavation of these structures; 5 structures completed till date.
7) Farm based activities to add multiple sources of income by diversifying croppingpattern
8) Regular documentation of the field level activities
Brief descriptions of these activities are narrated in subsequent sections of thereport for a better understanding of the process adopted in carrying out theseactivities.
1. Awareness Generation…..
Upon receiving the green signal from NABARD about the project, a series of
village level meetings were conducted in all these rehabilitation colonies. Thiswas in terms of informal meeting, one-to-one interactions, formal meeting etc. tointroduce the NABARD supported project.
2. Project Concept Orientation…..
Target group of the project are Bengali refugees; these are basically subsistenceagriculturists and boatmen of Bangladesh. Bangladesh is a country of rivers.However, every household used to have a multipurpose pukur (tank) at theirbackyard. The present concept of the project is derived from their experience
only i.e. tank-centered multiple sources of income.

The purpose of the Project Orientation Program was to inform the participating
farmers about the terms and conditions of the project so that they can take a finalcall whether or not to participate in the project. A time period of 15 days wasgiven them to think and decide.
3. Social Feasibility Study……
The next step after finalization of list of farmers was feasibility analysis;feasibility we analyze at 2 stages – 1) Social feasibility and 2) Technicalfeasibility. We have a predesigned schedule to assess the social feasibility ofthe household. The team visits every household and interacts with the members
of selected families. The purpose is to understand the interest of the familymembers in the proposed package. The proposed package can be translated into action only with the support of all the family members. If the farmer alone isinterested then all the components of the project cannot be implemented. The
team ensures, through the social feasibility study, that maximum family memberscommit to the plan of action of the project.
4. Technical Feasibil ity Study….
Those who qualified in social feasibility are then assessed for technical
feasibility by visiting their farms; here the team tries to assess whether the farmis a suitable for excavation of water harvesting structure, whether all componentsof the proposed plan could be implemented in the farm, which is the suitablelocation for excavation of the water harvesting structure within the farm, what
shall be the size of the structure based on the land holding, etc.
5. Identification of Potential Farmers…..
Based on the results of social and technical feasibility studies, a final set offarmers are identified and an orientation program for them is conducted on

21.12.2012 at Janakalyan office. About 23 farmers participated in the saidprogram. Not only was the plan of action discussed with these farmers but also
the terms of reference. They are also shared the information like the amount ofgrant available for excavation of the water harvesting structure, types of activitiesto be implemented after excavation and the amount of contribution at farmersend for all these activities etc. These selected farmers are also told that the
excavation shall start on first come first serve basis based on deposition of theircontribution. The list of farmers who have been identified by the project team isfurnished below-

in tail end of irrigation project JANAKALYAN
Note that it is not mandatory that only these farmers will be selected forexcavation of water harvesting structures but anybody who completes the worm-
compost pit with cows would get first priority, whether from the above list orotherwise.
It was clearly told them that NABARD has provided Rs.35,000 for excavation of
every water harvesting structure and the farmers need to contribute Rs.25,000for 65 Hitachi hours of work. The farmers themselves shall make arrangement forshifting the excavated soil and provide food to the operator.
6. Benchmark Survey…….
Upon receipt of the contribution from the farmers, the team then starts
benchmark data collection process through a predesigned schedule. The teamcollects General Information of the family, Demography of the family, Economic
Profile, Land Details, Moveable & Immovable Assets, Agriculture Credit,Household Savings & Security, Sanitary Pattern, Household Expenditure
Pattern, Access to Government Support, Social and Marriage System, etc.
7. Excavation……
Finally the excavation of water harvesting structure started on 7th April 2013 and
completed 5 structures by 11th June 2013; though there were possibilities ofexcavting few more structures but due to lack of funds, we had to stop the
process for time being. An hitachi was hired to excavate these structures at themarket price.

TOTAL 513590 175000 338590
Percentage 34% 66%
Carefull observation of the table shows that about 66% of the cost of excavationis borne by the farmers themselves while only 34% of the total cost is subsidized
by the project as incentive. The the farmers have both the desire as well as theability to invest for excavation of the structure, it is this “incentive” which stopsthem from going ahead. All these farmers very well understand the importance ofsuch a structure and the advantages of having assured irrigation for their crops,
but still expect this “push factor ” from some external sources to capitalise thebeenfits of this knowledge and technology.
8. Farm Demonstration……
Excavation of water harvesting structure is just the beginning of the journey in
bringing self sufficiency by diversifying cropping and adding multiple sources ofincome to the farm. Though, it has a long list of activities demanding hugeinvestments in each of these activities and takes few years to establish theresults, due to limitation of the scheme, we have planned only few set of trainingwith the participating farmers. The actual implementation is left to the farmers
through their own investments. The role of Janakalyan is only triggering theactivities such as a) vegetable cultivation training, b) fodder cultivation & animalhusbandry training, c) worm composting and / or SRI and 4) fish rearing. Theachievement as at the end of the 1
st year of the journey is not very satisfactory in
this regards. One of the reasons is that it was planned to complete the structures
before taking up farm level activities. Other reason is lack of fund required forconducting these training. However the farm level demonstrations have beentaken up without the training inputs and planned to conduct all these training in
the 2nd
year of the project period. Broad farm based activities during the reportingperiod are grouped into following 4 heads and brief description provided insubsequent paragraphs of the report.
8.1. Vegetable Cult ivation………
Though it was a very good year in terms of rainfall but was a bad year forvegetable cultivation due to continuous rain almost every day; as a result, thefarmers those who tried vegetable cultivation lost their crops while few others
could not even go for sowing / transplanting.

quantity in very first year. Once they taste the benefits of vegetable cultivation,we are sure next year onwards they will adopt it their own.
It is further clear from the table above that the average investment per farmer isRs.928 while the average return each farmer has already recovered is Rs.570; itis to be noted that the crop is not fully harvested and also one (Hiralal Baidya)
of the farmers has yet not harvested at all. Similarly, the investment per gunta ofland for vegetable cultivation is only Rs.464 while the return per gunta is Rs.285at this stage of crop harvesting. Every farmer has already harvested an averageof half-a-quintal of vegetables.

The important point to be noted here is that this data is of the sale of vegetable
after their family consumption; consumption of farm fresh vegetables willdefinitely have positive impacts on the health of the family members.
8.2. Fodder Cultivation & Animal Husbandry………………
With farm fresh vegetables, it is also aimed that the peasant communities shallalso get unadulterated milk from their own farm.

However, even if those are taken into consideration, we believe thatthere would be reasonable margin in animal husbandry. On the other hand, the
benefits from cow dung and cow urine is also not calculated along with thevalue of calf. Again, this value is calculated only for the quantum of milk that is
sold after family consumption; here again the impact on health is to beconsidered.

Fodder grown by Hiralal Baidya Fodder plot of Surendrantha Mondal
Fodder Plot of Manik Bawali
Only setback for the team during the year is that it failed to motivate the farmersto go for fodder crops except Sri Manik Bawali who has tried it in small piece ofland. It is very difficult to bring out the farmers from their age-old practices towhich they are addicted to. But, some of them have cultivated fodder on the
bunds of the tank. However, in the due course of time, we are sure of convertingthese farmers into the proposed package of the program. It is also to be notedthat 2 of the participating farmers have yet not purchased cow for the want offunds, though they are interested.
8.3. Worm compost and/or SRI…….
It is planned that each farmer shall either go for worm-compost making orcultivate paddy with System of Rice Intensification (SRI) method of cultivation.The outcome as at the end of 1
st year of the project implementation is furnished
in the table below.
8.3.1. Worm compost…..
In the very first year of project implementation, the team failed to motivate thefarmers to go for worm-compost preparation. However, one farmer has put thematerials in an already built concrete structure. The standard composting
method is applied and waiting for the result after 3 months.

In order to bring more area under irrigation, it is proposed that SRI method ofrice cultivation shall be introduced so that water consumption becomes less
while yield increases. With all efforts, the farmers agreed to go for SRI in asmall piece of land as shown in the table below; however, not all farmers. Theresult is yet to be seen…

9. Documentation…….
Documentation is an important task in every project implementation, especially
when it is demonstration type, for the benefits of larger sections of the society.

Since the project has been taken up under FTTP – Farmers Technology Transfer
Fund – it becomes again important to document each and every step so that a
conclusion can be drawn at the end of the project period about the technology
under testing.
Janakalyan team has developed various formats for documenting the field based
activities on day to day basis. The reports are prepared based on these data/
records. All these formats are annexed to this report.
In addition, periodical photo and occasional video documentation are part of the
routine documentation process of field team of Janakalyan.
10.Transparency & Accountability…..
Transparency is a crosscutting system in Janakalyan; all data including
financials are disclosed with all the stakeholders. Janakalyan is accountable to
all its stakeholders in addition to the donor.

It is proposed that Agriculture Interest Group (AIG) shall be formed with the
participating farmers so that cross learning and mutual cooperation is possible
among them; this would be possible only after covering all 15 farmers as
proposed in the proposal.
