The farming system of north eastern hills is complex due to practice of shifting cultivation prevalent in the region. Alternative farming systems to native shifting cultivation system were evaluated in long term evaluation to check viability, vulnerability and profitability of these farming systems. Among the eight alternative farming systems three i.e. agro-pastoral (FSW4), agri-horti-silvipastoral (FS-W5), horti-silvi-pastoral (FS-W6) were evaluated during 1999-2004 for five consecutive years. Input supplied and output obtained or recycled were converted into energy equivalents and analyzed for profitability. Agri-horti-silvi-pastoral system was found to be highly remunerative with regards to output: input energy ratio. Not Available |
