Farmers’ Experiences Innovations and modifications She used a wooden Marker in the first year of SRI adoption. Benefits Less seed (300 gm/ nali) required in this method. Less water required in this method. Less time required. Need less labour work. Total production 1.5- 2 times in comparison to conventional method. The green fodder is 2- 2.5 times more. Constraints in adoption First year use of Weeder and Marker was difficult. Due to late transplanting yield was less. Lessons learnt The SRI technique teaches how to get more production by applying less seed, water and labour. Comparative study Particulars Conventional method SRI method Operations Nursery 2 kg seed/nali 300gm seed/nali Preparation of field Marker is not used Marker is used Transplantation No fixed spacing 10” x 10” (10 days’ old seedlings transplanted) Weeding Manual – one time Weeder is used thrice Water management 5”- 6” water applied throughout Application of 1” inch water after 10 days Fertilizers/Manure Urea and cow dung Panchgavya, Amaritjal, Matka Khad, Vermicompost Yield and Income Total number of tillers 13 63 Average plant height (cm) 140 173 95
