| Description: | Raw jute crop is an important cash crop to the farmers of West Bengal, Bihar, Assam, Odhisa and Tripura. During the recent years, climatic change posing biotic and abiotic stresses causing losses of jute yield due to pre-flowering, outbreaks of new pests & diseases, shortage of soil moisture leading to nutrient deficiency, etc. A project supported by Department of Science & Technology (NRDMS Division), Government of India was undertaken during the year 2016-19 to disseminate the problem solving knowledge and farm input products as developed and standardized in farmer’s field by the scientists of ICAR-CRIJAF. These technologies are to reduce vulnerability of weather aberrations and climate change shocks and to provide services for input supply and marketing of their produce. Keeping this in view, a skill development programmes were conducted using climate resilient agriculture technology like use of pre-flowering resistant seeds, nail weeders for weeding and moisture conservation, multi crop seed drills for line sowing, herbicide applicators for controlling composite weed flora, microbial formulation for fibre retting in low volume water, profitable intercropping system, and soil test based fertilizer application at six locations of West Bengal. The capacity building programmes was conducted through interaction based training session, hands-on training on use of farm implements and input use, method demonstration and field demonstration in farmer’s field. The technical information appearing in this extension/technical bulletin reflects the efforts and achievements made by Principal Investigator and his team of the DST-NRDMS project to upgrade the knowledge of scheduled caste jute farmers by improving their farm income and consequently increase the jute productivity. |
