Conclusion<br />

From the findings <strong>of</strong> the investigation, it can be concluded that scheduling irrigation by drip at<br />

0.9 IW/CPE ratio along with 240 kg N ha -1 is suitable combination for maximizing the yields<br />

<strong>of</strong> maize with higher WUE.<br />

Rain water harvesting has been practiced for many years in several regions globally and is<br />

mainly used for domestic or agricultural purposes. Various studies on rainwater harvesting in<br />

dry or tropical areas <strong>of</strong> growing and developing countries for agricultural use have proved its<br />

benefits such as an increase in crop yields and facilitated benefits to high-value crops. A lowcost<br />

technology for water harvesting structure Jalkund was demonstrated having dimensions<br />

5mx3mx1m was conducted at NICRA adopted village Rabitar, Namchi district, South Sikkim.<br />

The average supply from each Jalkund was about 15,000 L water. In the present study an<br />

approach to economical integrated ways <strong>of</strong> farming system was demonstrated to 10 numbers<br />

<strong>of</strong> farming families in the Village. The top most priority <strong>of</strong> the present study was to way out<br />

the source <strong>of</strong> water for meeting minimum critical water needs for post monsoon Rabi season<br />

vegetable production. Rainwater harvesting has great potential to achieve sustainable<br />

agriculture.<br />
