Notas del editor

  1. You can talk about PRI collaboration here as well. In the picture down most that can be linked as PRI collaboration.
  2. First production in Kharif 2010 happened in both Gosaba and Bansanti block covering all 6 GPs.Gosaba – Bali –I, Shambhunagar, Radhanagar, Pathankhali, and Bipradaspur.Basanti – Kathalberia.
  3. Actually the number of registered farmers are 1123 and 513=1636 in (Mal, Nagrakatta) and Maynaguri block.
  4. Micing -> Postering -> General Meeting with the villagers, local leaders and panchayetmemebers etc ->
  5. Irrigation – if we would want to work on SRI in summers as well then we also need to work on water conservation as well.
  6. Its not that we didn’t have the information about B 9, it’s working quite good in Sundervan area and just working fine in Jalpaiduri as well. This doesn’t mean that we were there to promote B 9 but we were confident that if farmers are using B 9; there should be no harm. Unfortunately it just didn’t work well in many places and showed average results in other places. You can better say that it also resulted in the drop out in certain areas as well. We would see that in next slides.
  7. Agro Industries (A govt agency to supply agriculture tools in Jalpaiguri) – they denied to deliver the weeder stating that they can’t change the design right now and we have to wait for 4 months at least. That time, we had the reference of Mal ADO. Then we talked with the supplier in Alipurduar, he then sent us sample weeder which farmers rejected saying it won’t work in Wheat. We didn’t want to invest double on weeders so we (here we means farmers) then designed weeder that can especially work both in Wheat and Mustard. By that time, we were late by 20 -30 days. Farmers were already troubled with poor situation in mustard and presence of weeds only lowered their patience. So there was a drop out in the crops.
  8. A farmer – what is his future? His source of information is a local shop – you have seen the seed failure and all the disease and pests – what kind of information they get from there? If somehow he gets good rain and therefore a good produce where is the market – if somehow he manages to send it to the market with the help of middlemen then what is the price he gets for the produce???? What is the future..please tell me and forget about all this….where is the sustain – ability -- do you think would they always be interested in agriculture. The area I have been working for the last four months is the place where there is a growing tendency for Tea gardens, migration as a wage earners…..where is the future?????
  9. You keep growing all the vegetables and all the SRI things but it shall sustain …. I do doubt. We need to be a bit innovative. Think of something which help them to reshape. We are here to propose something …. This is an idea… there might be one hundred thousands of loopholes in this explanation but still I am going to talk about an idea. Think about that.
  10. and put it into a proper structure – would save huge amount of money that we are investing on promoting SRI – and moreover it WOULD BE SUSTAINABLE in itself.
  11. Now could you please think of a place where farmer gets all the information which he used to get from the local shop. These shop owners claim to be very informative and possessing relevant certificates but do they really have ‘information’ on various aspects of farming practices???? Well … personally I don’t think so.
  12. FC-> Farmers’ Club
  13. Excess produce would be purchased by the SRI Kendra and would be sent into the market.
  14. But the question is … Why Commercialisation…???
