<strong>IWMP</strong>-2 Mahiyari<br />
Lack <strong>of</strong> surface water source and high salinity <strong>of</strong> ground water has limited the sufficient base for irrigation as well as for drinking purpose. The<br />
average land holding is ranging from 1 to 4 ha. Lack <strong>of</strong> irrigation source forces the majority <strong>of</strong> the farmers to take one Crop in all seasons. This<br />
affects directly the demographic pr<strong>of</strong>ile <strong>of</strong> the village. The major crops cultivated by the farmers are Ground nuts and Jowar (Sorghum). Some <strong>of</strong><br />
the farmers take up rain-fed castor crop if rainfall is good. The land conservation measures such as earthen bunds and farm bunds in the area<br />
will help them to take up a rabi crop <strong>of</strong> wheat and Chana in the residual moisture.<br />
