Description: | Kandi area of Punjab constitutes the 10 per cent of the total state area. The area is characterized by the erratic distribution of rainfall, small and scattered land holdings and severe soil erosion on sloppy lands, poor soil fertility and low moisture retention capacity. Maize is the main kharif season crop in kandi area and covers about 70 per cent of the total cropped area. The yield potential of the maize crop is very low which might be due to uncertainly of rains and lack of resources (good quality seed, implements etc.). Nowadays, increase in wild and stray animals’ nuisance in the area has led to major setback for the cultivation of maize crop in the area. Crop failures have become a common problem in the area and famers start keeping some of their land barren. |
