Weather plays animmense role in Indian agriculture. Timely onset and good
distribution of rainfall are critical for achieving optimum crop yields by farmers, particularly
during Kharif season along with other factors like inputs,labour and technology. The submontane
North Eastern part of Punjab which falls under agro-climatic zone AESR 9.1 of
India is known as Kandi Region. Out of the total rainfall in this region, 80 % of it is received
during the monsoon season which determines the success of rainfed crops. Any deviation
from normal monsoon pattern affects crop production. To develop mitigation strategies for
changing climatic scenario the "National Innovation on Climate Resilient Agriculture
(NICRA)project" was started at AICRPDA Centre-Ballowal Saunkhri with the financial
assistance from CRIDA, Hyderabad during the year 2011-12. The project was started at
AICRPDA centre (On-station) for development of technologies and Village
Achalpur&Nainwan, Block Garhshankar, District Hoshiarpur for simultaneous testing and
dissemination of the technologies developed at AICRPDA centre.During the last five years a
number of technologies have been developed and successfully adopted by the farmers in the
adopted villages. The overall impact of NICRA during the last five years has been
documented in this report.
