Krishi Vigyan Kendra: Action Plan

- The document outlines the action plan of Deendayal Research Institute's Krishi Vigyan Kendra in Beed, Maharashtra for 2012-2013. - Key issues addressed include imbalanced fertilizer use, lack of INM practices, low soil fertility, and lack of awareness about micronutrients. - The plan involves on-farm testing, demonstrations, training programs, and extension activities to promote soil testing-based fertilizer management, increase organic content, conserve soil and water, and raise awareness of nutrient deficiencies. - A total of 1250 soil and water samples will be collected over the year to generate an income of Rs. 12500, with expenses of Rs. 20000.

Action Plan
(20122013)

Soil Science

List of location specific problems


Imbalanced use of fertilizer without soil
testing.
Non adoption of INM practices.
Poor soil fertility decrease in organic carbon
content of soil.
Unawareness about micronutrients.

List of location specific thru


Increase the productivity of the crops by
reducing cost of production using INM.
Improvement of soil health through
incorporation of crop residues.
Popularizing dry sowing, paired row
plantation, contour sowing, Soil & Water
conservation measures.
To make aware farmers about nutrient
deficiencies and their control through soil test
based fertilizer management.
No use of bio-fertilizer for seed treatment.
No use of micronutrients.
