5. Description of Agro-climatic Zones and farming situation of the district

Raichur is popularly known as :" Do Aab " lies between two important rivers of the

state namely, Krishna and Thungabhadra. Historically this place has been a bone of

contention among several kingdoms. A number of interception, rockedicts, temples, forts and

good fields bear testimony of this prosperous area. In the recent past, Raichur was part of

princely state of Hyderabad and since 1 st November, 1956, it is constituent district of

3

Karnataka. Raichur district comes under the north eastern dry zone of the agro climactic

zones (Region I Zone II) classified in the state and it comprises of five talukas viz Raichur,

Manvi, Deodurga, Lingasugur and Sindhanur. The district lies in the 16°.15 '' of northern

latitude and 77°. 20 '' of east longitude with altitude of 389 mts. The district is bestowed with

varied soil resources comprising about 80 per cent of black soil and remaining is red and

sandy loamy in nature. In Raichur district nearly 78 per cent of the area has been brought

under plough. Apart, 22 per cent of the area forms barren and uncultivated land which is put

to non agricultural use. Raichur climate remains almost dry with mean monthly max

temperature of 45º C in may and minimum of 16º C in December. The district records very

low and erratic precipitation with an average annual rainfall of 621 mm. Max rainfall occurs

from June to September. The important Kharif crops are paddy, cotton, sunflower, redgram,

greengram, bajra, navane and varied combinations of these crops are observed in inter

cropping systems. The important Rabi crops comprises sorghum, safflower, bengalgram,

sunflower and paddy. Recently some area around Raichur is put under vegetables. The

important vegetables such as chilli, onion, cucumber, field bean, ridge guard, bhendi, tomato

etc are grown through out the year under irrigated condition.

(F) Technical feedback on the demonstrated technologies

1. Cotton : IPM and ICM technologies are viable and profitable. Reduces burden on farmers

since pesticides are used on need base. Should be practiced on large scale.

2. Growing of desi cotton varieties (DB 3-12) under irrigation could increase the

productivity of the yield.

3. Tie and dye is profitable adding to the household income.

4. New Sunflower hybrid RSFH-1 was found to be better performing

5. Colouring in Sweet Orange helps to fetch more price

6. BPH management with new chemicals was quite effective

7. Wilt management in Pigeon pea through Trichoderma was cost effective and

eco-friendly

8. Self sufficiency with puffed rice preparation by farm women of Sindhanur

(G) Farmers reaction on specific technologies

1. Seed treatment and stem smearing in cotton : Effective in reducing early sucking pests,

very cheap and conserves the natural enemies

2. Short duration pulsed under paddy fallows gave higher monetary benefits.

3. By growing improved varieties/hybrids, the production can be increased.

4. Jasmine cultivation sole as well as a intercrop in mango has enhanced the economic condition of the family

5. Cultivation of fig as intercrop with mango and sapota recorded high monetary benefit

6. Marketing of tie and dyed cloth material has improved the economic levels of farm family

7. Weeders are easy to operate and are cost effective.
