CHAPTER 1: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1.1 Description of Community:
In the First week of the Survey we have taken all the permissions requires for
conducting the survey and discussed the community we should survey and started
the survey. we mainly created awareness to the farmers regarding health and we
also guided the school students regarding various career options after 10th.
In the Fourth week, we discussed the solutions of the problems reported by the
farmers with President and the Secretariat of Peddapuram.
13
1.4 Outcomes:
Disease and Pest Control: Rotating crops helps break the life cycles of pests and diseases that are
specific to certain crops. This reduces the risk of infestations and allows for more sustainable farming
practices.
Nutrient Management: Different crops have different nutrient requirements. Rotating crops helps
prevent nutrient depletion in the soil by varying the types of plants grown in a particular area over
time.
Improved Soil Structure: Planting a variety of crops with different root structures helps improve soil
structure. Some crops may have deep roots that break up compacted soil, while others may help
prevent soil erosion.

CHAPTER 2: OVERVIEW OF THE COMMUNITY
In olden days it was referred as Kimmuru by natives and a Paragana within the Rajamundry
Sarkar of Mughal empire's Deccan subah. By the time of 1785 the Peddapuram Estate
extended from Totapalli to Nagaram encompassing villages and towns. During the British rule,
Sri Raya Jagapati was chosen to take over the estate in 1802. After Sri Raya Jagapati's death,
the three wives, Lakshmi Narasayyamma, Bucchi Seetayyamma and Bucchi Bangaramma,
ruled the estate in succession. Raya Jagapati's widow Bucchi Seetayyamma, ruled from 1828-
1835. She founded two trusts for the poor, one in Peddapuram and another in Kattipudi in
East Godavari. You can find some ancient caves with the supposed footprints of Bhima
(Pandavas).
15
The temple is also known as 'Chinna Bhadradi' or the 'Little Bhadrachalam'. It is
one of the two most popular Rama temples in Andhra Pradesh along with
Kodandarama temple in Vontimitta.Sri Rama Navami is the most prominent
festival celebrated at the temple and features an annual wedding ceremony of
Rama and Sita.Other important festivals celebrated at the temple are Vaikunta
Ekadasi and Vijayadasam
2 Medical Facilities:
Government medical treatment.
Some other private hospital.

CHAPTER 3: COMMUNITY SERVICE PART
By conducting the survey I gathered the information from the farmers of these
areas which are related to my project to identify the problems faced by the farmers
staying there.
After conducting the survey, I had identified all the major problems that are facing
by the farmers related to their yeild .
With all the possible awareness guidence I had conducted a campaign by going to
that area and interacting with the farmers and telling them the solution which I
had discovered for their problems and explained the benefits in using the solutions.

Table 3.1.9
In the second week survey, we noticed that most of the farmers are
lessaware of natural ways to get high yield and Soil health.
Healthy soil fields are found in a small ratio..
Most of them are suffering from different yielding problems and
they are prolonged too.
They are suffering to secure crops in rainy season due to overflow
of drainages into the fields .
Proper maintenance of irrigation system is strictly required
The above reason may be the main reason for the maximum of
the farmers are facing.
At the end of the month, we created the awareness on the crop

CHAPTER 5: OUTCOMES DESCRIPTION
Crop rotation can also help to reduce the need for chemical inputs such as fertilizers and
pesticides. When different crops are grown in a field, they can help to naturally enrich the soil
and reduce the need for chemical inputs. This can be especially beneficial for organic farmers,
who rely on natural methods of pest and disease control.
In addition to improving soil health, crop rotation can also increase crop productivity.
Different crops have different nutrient requirements, and rotating crops can help to ensure that
the soil has the nutrients that are needed for optimal growth. This can lead to higher crop yields
and can help to make farming more profitable.
Crop rotation can also be beneficial for the environment. By rotating crops, farmers can
help to reduce soil erosion and the risk of soil degradation. In addition, rotating crops can help
to increase the number of beneficial insects in a field, which can help to control pests and
reduce the need for chemical pesticides.
To implement a successful crop rotation system, farmers need to consider a number of
factors, including the types of crops that are best suited to their soil and climate conditions, the
length of the growing season, and the types of pests and diseases that are present in their area.
It is also important for farmers to plan ahead and to have a clear understanding of the crop
rotation schedule that they will be following.
Another benefit of crop rotation is that it can help to diversify a farm's income streams.
By rotating crops, farmers can take advantage of different market conditions and can
potentially earn more income by growing a wider variety of crops. This can be especially
beneficial for small-scale farmers who rely on farming as their primary source of income.

39
5.4 Short-term and long-term Solutions to the problems identified
I gathered up all of their issues and sorted out the more significant ones. I also
made an effort to offer them some solutions to their issues. I have given them some
short-term and long-term action plans for solving their problems based on their
issues. I believed that these might be useful in helping the students to find solutions
to their issues.
1. *Disease Management:* Implement short-term fungicide treatments and consider resistant crop varieties.
2. *Weed Control:* Introduce targeted herbicide applications and consider cover cropping to suppress weeds.
3. *Soil Erosion:* Apply mulching and cover cropping for immediate erosion control.
4. *Yield Variability:* Optimize irrigation practices and consider short-term nutrient supplementation.
5. *Crop Residue Management:* Use machinery or manual labor to quickly address and incorporate crop residues into
the soil.
7. *Market Constraints:* Explore alternative markets or crop varieties to adapt to current market demands.
9. *Climate Adaptation:* Implement short-term adaptive measures such as adjusting planting schedules or exploring
40

CHAPTER 6 : CONCLUSIONS
After completion of the campaign, I made the farmers should be aware on crop
rotation and Soil Fertility.
Conclusions:
In conclusion, raising awareness about crop rotation is pivotal for fostering sustainable
agricultural practices. As farmers gain a deeper understanding of the benefits associated with
crop rotation, there is a potential for transformative changes in farming systems. Improved soil
health, increased crop yields, and effective pest management are among the tangible outcomes.
Furthermore, the awareness can lead to a shift towards environmentally friendly practices,
awareness initiatives also hinges on collaboration, knowledge exchange, and policy support,
creating a holistic approach that positively impacts both individual farmers and the broader
technological advancements will play crucial roles in ensuring that crop rotation becomes a
