Income generation
Rural women sitting idle in home without having homestead employment
Adoption%, increase in family income and food security
Rural women and SHG members adopted mushroom cultivation and nutritional garden being at home
Integrated Crop Management
Low yield and low content of oil in groundnut due to non application of PMS and gypsum
Adoption%, yield, CB ratio, oil content in the seeds
Farmers increased the yield, harvested bold seeds, packed kernels and seeds with more oil content from groundnut after application of gypsum @ 2.5 q/ha
Integrated Pest Management
Indiscriminate use of pesticides in groundnut increases the resistance of existing insect pests and cost of cultivation
Adoption%, yield, % of infected plants, CB ratio
After adoption of IPM practices in groundnut the pest infestation was reduced, cost of cultivation was reduced and yield was increased
Farm machinery
High cost of Rice cultivation due to manual threshing
Adoption%, saving of cost and labour
Both cost and labour requirement can be reduced using paddy thresher
