during 22-24, December 2022 at ICAR-CRIDA, Hyderabad
friendly practices to improve the health of agro-ecosystem while supporting smallholder
farmers to adapt to adverse impacts of climate change and build socio-ecological resilience.
These practices can be also customized depending on the local context for wider adoption and
scaling.

In the scenario of conventional farming system, limited chances are available to cope with
sustainability and productivity issues at the same time. Relay cropping may play a crucial role
in tackling this concern, by increasing the sustainability with minimum tillage, continuous soil
cover along with increase in land productivity. Lot of studies already reflected the benefits to
crops sown after legume crop, so more emphasis was given in this study to directly relate the
research towards a best choice of legumes for relay cropping in castor crop. With these
thoughts this research was framed to study different legume-castor relay cropping systems
viz.,greengram-castor, clusterbean (veg)- castor, blackgram-castor, cowpea-castor and sole
