International Conference on Reimagining Rainfed Agro-ecosystems: Challenges & Opportunities during 22-24, December 2022 at ICAR-CRIDA, Hyderabad management practices like weeding and pest and disease control measures were followed, andthe data on crop yield was analyzed considering farmers as replications using one way ANOVA with randomized blocks on Bluestat. Results The soils are slightly acidic to strongly alkaline (pH 6.04 to 8.68) in reaction, whereas the electrical conductivity (EC) of selected villages of Southern Telangana Zone remains within safe limit with no salinity hazard (200 kg available nitrogen ha -1 . The available phosphorus (P 2O 5) ranged from 28.11 to 89.03kg ha -1 with a mean value of 55.56 kg ha -1 , which indicating medium to high availability of phosphorus at farmers field. Important rabi crops (rice, maize, ragi, groundnut, sesamum, green-gram, black-gram, jonna, bajra and castor) of Nagarkurnooldistrict showed significant response to SSNM compared to blanket application of recommended fertilizers, soil test crop response (STCR) equation and farmers practice in all the locations. The seed yield (q acre -1 ) increased in all crops tested though by different levels. Target yield based site specific nutrient management approach registered highest yields (q acre -1 ) viz.,21.83in rice, 31.66inragi, 35.09inmaize, 12.06in groundnut, 2.31in seamum, 3.57ingreengram, 5.35inblackgram, 6.39in bajra, 17.24in sorghum and 20.83in castor.Further, the results revealed that the percent yield increased as 35.67 in rice, 28.80 in ragi, 34.24 in maize, 33.70 in groundnut, 27.62 in sesamum, 23.14 in green gram, 21.32 in black gram, 23.60 in bajra, 26.76 in jonna, 29.54 in castor cropsover farmers practice due to more precise application of fertilizers in the study area.
