2.1 Major farming systems/enterprises (based on the analysis made by the KVK)

S. No Farming system/enterprise

1 AGRI – HORTI – ANIMAL HUSBANDRY

2 AGRI – HORTI – SILVIPASTORAL

3 AGRI – HORTI – SILVIPASTORAL – ANIMAL HUSBANDRY

2.2 Description of Agro-climatic Zone & major agro ecological situations (based on soil and topography)

S. No Agro-climatic Zone Characteristics

1 High Hills Temperate

Dry Zone The entire district (East longitude 7646’29” to 7841’34”, North latitude 3144’57” to 3559’53”)

falls under the High Hills Temperate Dry Zone of HP. The area is snow bound from November to

March and is characterized with very low rainfall (about 250 mm). The soil of the zone is sandy loam

with low fertility status and almost all the crops respond to the application of Nitrogen and

Phosphorus. No crop can be raised without assured supply of irrigation water. Crops are raised on

sloping fields. Major problem of the area is soil erosion and water management. Most of the area is

prone to glaciers and the top soil is removed every year through glaciers. The major crops grown in

the area are pea, potato, barley, hops, buckwheat, temperate vegetables, oat, kuth and manu etc. Of

late apple cultivation has caught the fancy of farmers with area under it increasing at a rapid pace.

2 Agro ecological

situation (AES)

Characteristics

AES – 1 This situation lies between elevations of 2501 – 3250m amsl. This zone comprises of parts of

Udaipur and Keylong sub divisions. The majority of the area of this zone is having sloping land. The

landforms are mid hills to low hills. The soils are shallow in depth and the majority of the soils are

light textured (Sandy loam). Major crops grown are pea, potato, cauliflower, barley, kuth, and

temperate vegetables. Apple and other temperate fruits are also grown in this zone.

AES – 2 The elevation of this AES lies between 3251 – 4250 m amsl. This zone comprises parts of Udaipur,

Keylong and Kaza sub divisions. The soils are shallow in depth and sandy loam in texture. There is

only one crop season from May – September. The area is suitable for quality potato seed, pea and

temperate vegetables. Other crops grown are barley and buckwheat.

AES – 3 AES – 3 lies above an elevation of 4251 m amsl. This zone comprises parts of Udaipur, Keylong and

Kaza sub divisions. The majority of the soils of this AES are light textured and unconsolidated sands

and pebbles. The area is suitable for cultivation of pea, potato and barley.

2.3 Soil type/s

S. No Soil type Characteristics Area (ha)

1 Sandy to

sandy loam

In general, soils of the district are sandy to sandy loam in texture and neutral to alkaline in reaction

and low in fertility. While the soils in Lahaul valley, in some parts, are loam to clay loam with

abundance of gravel and rich in fertility, in Spiti valley these are silty loam in texture and neutral to

alkaline in reaction with low water holding capacity. These soils are low in nitrogen and medium

to high in phosphorus and potassium. The soil strata are loose in both the valleys. The water

holding capacity also varies from poor to medium. These soils are prone to erosion due to

cultivation on steep slopes, splashing floods, flow irrigation and overgrazing.

9.A. Success story1: Integrated Nutrient Management in garden Pea using bio-fertilizers

Lav Bhushan, Surender Kumar Thakur, Ramesh Lal and Vinod Sharma

1. Situation analysis and Problem

Garden Pea is one of the major cash crops of the tribal district of Lahaul and Spiti of Himachal Pradesh.

It is grown in all the three agro-ecological situations (AES) of the district. Due to heavy snowfall in the

winter months from November to April only single crop is grown in the district. Total cultivated area in

the district is only 3291 ha. Garden Pea occupies about one-third area under cultivation (1069 ha area)

having productivity of about 110 q/ha (2017-18). The sale rate of off-season Green garden Pea varies

from Rs. 30 to Rs. 65 a kg. The farmers of the valley were getting hand some returns (Rs. 2.25-2.75

lacs per hectare) from the cultivation of green garden Pea crop. Due to mono-cropping many problems

like outbreak of pests and diseases started in the recent years lead to stagnation and even decline in

productivity of Pea in the district. This lead to decrease in area under this crop in the district and

alternative crops like Cauliflower, Red Cabbage, Broccoli and Lettuce were introduced at farmers’

fields.

The availability of organic manure is decreasing as the farmers are keeping lesser number of domestic

animals and the dependence on chemical fertilizers has augmented in raising the cost of cultivation and

lower profitability. Integrated nutrient management using balanced doses of chemical fertilizers in

combination with organic manures and bio-fertilizers is the only solution to sustain the productivity and

enhance profitability. The literature show very little response of bio-fertilizers in many of the

leguminous crops probably due to lack of sufficient quantities of organic matter in the tropical and sub-

tropical soils. The soils of the Lahaul valley are rich in organic matter. They respond well to application

of all types of fertilizers including bio-fertilizers. Department of Organic Agriculture and Natural

Farming at CSK HPKV, Palampur has isolated specific strains of Rhizobium for Pea and Phosphorous

Solubilizing Bacteria (PSB) and multiplying the same for supply to the farmers of the state.

2. KVK Intervention

To access the effect of bio-fertilizers especially Rhizobium and PSB in garden Pea in the

organic rich soils in the dry temprate zone of Himachal Pradesh on farm testing (OFT) on effect of Bio-

fertilizes were conducted from 2013-14 to 2016-17. On farm trial comprising of three treatments, viz,

T1: 100% NPK (20: 60:30)+ 20t/ha FYM (Recommended doses); T2: 100% NPK (20: 60:30) + 20t/ha FYM + seed treatment with Rhizobium + soil application of PSB; and T3: 35:32:16 (NPK) - Farmers’ practice were conducted at seven locations in all the four years covering all the three AES of Lahaul and Spiti district of Himachal Pradesh. The pooled data over four years (Table 1) revealed that seed treatment with Rhizobium before sowing and application of PSB as soil application prior to sowing in combination with recommended doses of NPK (20:60:30 kg ha-1) gave highest yield (100.6 qha-1) of garden Pea to the tune of 18.6 percent in comparison to farmers’ practice (FP) (84.8 qha-1) where only NPK@35:32:16 kg ha-1 were applied. The average net returns (Rs. 2.44 lacs per ha) and BC ratio (3.80) were also highest with the application of bio-fertilizers along with recommended doses of NPK as compared to FP where Net returns and BC ratio were Rs. 1.91 lacs per ha and 3.00, respectively. On the other hand when only recommended doses of NPK was applied, the yield was only 8.1 per cent higher than FP and the Net returns and BC ration were Rs. 2.11 lacs per ha and 3.28.

3. Upscaling of technology

After success testing of the effect of bio-fertilizers on productivity of garden Pea in all the three

AES ranging from 2501 m amsl (AES I) to more than 4251 m amsl (AES-III) over four years, the use

of Rhizobium and PSB in Pea was up-scaled through awareness campaigns, frontline demonstrations

(FLDs) and field days. During 2017-18 and 2018-19 a total of 200 demonstrations were conducted at

farmers’ fields covering an area of 8.0 hectares. The economic analysis of these FLDs shows that

productivity of garden pea has increased by 12.61 to 14 88 percent with and net returns up to Rs. 3.0

lacs per ha.

4. Impact

The technology of use of bio-fertilizers in garden Pea has spread in over 100 ha area in the

district. The technology has vast potential in improving the productivity of garden Pea and improving

the soil health in the district. With the initiative of KVK, the use of bio-fertilizers along with balanced

recommended NPK fertilizers has resulted in additional net returns to the tune of Rs. 3.0 crores to the

farmers of the district.

9.B. Give details of innovative methodology/technology developed and used for Transfer of Technology

during the year

The availability of labour is very scarce in season and the weeds control manually account for the major cost of

cultivation especially in pea crop. The KVK has promoted the use of wheel hand hoe weeder through

demonstrations and trainings. In valley now farmers has started use of wheel hand hoe weeder and about 160

such weeder have been provided to the farmers of different panchayats in the Lahaul valley.

The seed potato is the major cash crop of valley and with climate change the late blight has also taken very

serious place in reduced production of this crop. With different new strains coming a major initiative has been

undertaken for control the spread of this disease. The demonstrations, survey and advisories are given in time for

control of these diseases through KVK. New resistant varieties like Kufri Himalini, Kufri Girdhari and Kufri

with the local people and identify training needs of the clientele. Also various extension tools like PRA were used

to identify the training needs of the farmers. On the basis of such surveys and interactions, following training

needs have been identified for practicing farmers / farm women:

Mechanical control of weeds without using herbicides to reduce women drudgery

Integrated nutrient management

Control of obnoxious weeds in grasslands and pastures and even cultivated fields

Proper methods of training and pruning in apple and other fruit crops

Soil sampling technique

Scientific cultivation of cash crops

- Rural Youth

Vermicompost technology.

Training and Pruning in fruit crops

Preservation of pickles

Vegetable nursery production under protected conditions

10.2. Cases of large scale adoption

The farmers of Lahaul valley have diversified from Seed Potato and Garden Pea cultivation to Cole crops especially

cauliflower with intervention of KVK, including exotic vegetables like Broccoli, Lettuce etc. The Kendra has laid

out demonstrations and conducted a large number of trainings in different villages of district on this topic and

motivated people to adopt these crops. The availability of healthy plant nursery was a challenge as the valley

remains cut from rest of the world sometimes up to first fortnight of May, whereas the plantation of these Cole

crops with in the valley starts from second week of April. Trainings and demonstrations on healthy production of

different vegetable grown in the valley were also provided to the farmers. As a result the area under these

vegetables has increased from 26 ha in 2006 to 650 ha in 2016-17.

10.3 Details of impact analysis of KVK activities carried out during the reporting period

Farmers are taking cultivating early vegetable plant nursery and the off season vegetables under protected

conditions. Farmers are converting FYM into vermicompost. Weed management is the major problem in all the crops. Due to labour shortage, mechanical control of weeds is

gaining acceptance amongst the farming community. KVK is popularizing this technology amongst the farming

community of the district.

Farmers are adopting seed treatment in almost all the crops. This has been made possible by the efforts put in by the

KVK in terms of organizing trainings on the topic, conducting on – farm trials and conducting demonstrations on

the topic.

Farmers have started using micro nutrient formulations in established or newly planted orchards to prevent

deficiencies. This has been made possible by the KVK by organizing trainings and demonstrations on its use in

different villages of the district.

Farmers have started growing high yielding varieties of rajmash instead of growing mixture of varieties.

Farmers have started cultivation of exotic vegetables.
