Description The present investigations entitled “Resource recycling and economic viability of
Crop – Fish - Poultry - Mushroom integration in rainfed rice farms of Odisha” were carried
out for three consecutive years from 01 April 2010 to 31 March 2013 at Khajuripada cluster
of Kandhamal district, Dhenkanal Sadar and Odapada cluster of Dhenkanal district and
Golamunda and Narla cluster of Kalahandi district of Odisha to study the productivity and
profitability of enterprises and the system as a whole, prepare flow chart for resource
recycling, quantify recyclable resources, assess impact on soil health, compute resource use
efficiency, analyze constraints, optimize resource allocation and develop models for
maximizing returns on a sustainable basis.
The treatments of study consisted of two factors viz. sources of water i.e. P 0 : no pond
(rainfed), P 1 : pond (irrigated) and size of farm i.e. marginal: 0.8 ha, small: 1.6 ha. The
treatments were in factorial randomized block design with five replications.
The 0.8 ha IFS model gave rice equivalent yield (REY) of 31.92 t, net return of
1, 61, 148 and B : C of 1.83 as compared to REY of 3.78 t, net return of 11,631 and
B:C of 1.38 in conventional rice-green gram cropping system. The 1.6 ha IFS model gave
REY of 44.93 t, net return of 2, 27, 521 and B : C of 1.83 as compared to REY of 6.70 t, net
return of 15,235 and B:C of 1.26 in conventional rice-green gram cropping system.
The 0.8 ha IFS model gave recyclable wastes of 3.3 t paddy straw, 0.87 t onion leaves,
3000 kg pond silt, 2129 kg poultry excreta and 13.0 t mushroom spent for recycling in the
system and use as input by other units compared to 5.9 t paddy straw, 1.70 t onion leaves,
5000 kg pond silt, 2104 kg poultry excreta and 13.0 t mushroom spent by 1.6 ha model for
recycling in the system.
Sustainable yield and value index in 0.8 ha IFS model increased to 0.84 and 0.47 as
compared to 0.10 and 0.03 in rice-green gram conventional cropping and in 1.6 ha IFS model
increased to 0.82 and 0.44 over 0.13 and 0.03 in conventional cropping. The labour
employment in both IFS models increased to 588 and 942 as compared to 204 and 400 in
respective conventional rice farms. The land use efficiency and rain water productivity
increased over conventional system.
Linear Programming based model was formulated for maximization of net farm
income subjected to availability of resources viz. land, labour and capital. The maximum profit
of `1,91,274 can be obtained by utilizing land of 0.619 ha, capital of `2,00,000 and labour of
605 human days through enterprise combination of 0.05X 1 + 0.458X 2 +0.04X 3 + 0.06X 4 +
0.0016X 5 + 0.009X 6, where, enterprise size options in ha are green gram (X 1 ), rice-onion (X 2 ),
on-dyke horticulture (X 3 ), Fishery (X 4 ), poultry (X 5 ) (1 unit = 0.0016 ha) and mushroom (X 6 )
(1 unit = 0.009 ha).
