Orissa Debraj Das Chandanpur Orissa Contact: Dr. A. Ghosh, Sr. Scientist, Agronomy, Division of Crop Production, Central Rice Research Institute (CRRI), Cuttack, Orissa. Ph: 9437271328 Age: 45 years Education: IV pass Family size: Five Occupation(s): Agriculture and Wage work No. of years in farming: Eight Paddy cultivation His total agriculture land is two acres, of which paddy land is 1.4 acres. He uses rainfall as the main water source. The inputs used per acre are seed (35 kg) and fertilizers [(Basal: Gromor (a compound fertilizer containing 28% each of N and P) 25 kg; first top dressing: Urea 25 kg, MoP 15 kg, second top dressing: Urea 15 kg)]. The yield obtained by the flooding method is 1.4 t/acre. SRI adoption Debraj Das learnt about SRI from CRRI and BASIX, a local NGO. He adopted SRI in 2005 and was given training and guidance by CRRI and BASIX. The area under SRI is 0.6 acres. He has grown three seasons of SRI crop using the Sarala variety. He used the following inputs: seeds (2.5 kg) and fertilizers (Basal: Gromor 40 kg, MoP 15 kg, top dressing: Urea 40 kg). He followed the following SRI practices: transplanting 15 day old seedling, draining of water one month after transplanting, weeding after one month. He did the line-sowing using rope, and used the Rotary hoe weeder. He dealt with the pest attack by using botanical pesticides. The yield used to be about 2.8 t/acre. Innovations and modifications Weeding was not possible 15 days after transplanting, so it was done after 25 days. Benefits Fewer wage labourers are required: uprooting requires only two labourers as against 12 labourers in conventional planting. Transplanting requires 15 labourers, as against 35 per acre. 54
