3. INTRODUCTION
> It is most important human food
grain and stable crop.
> Wheat provides nourishment to 35%
of world population.
> Today , India is exporting sufficient
quantities of all type of wheat
extensive research efforts are under for
improving its cereals and grain output
in the year to come
4. HISTORY OF WHEAT CULTIVATION
IN INDIA
The Country used to import Wheat in large
quantities for fulfilling the needs of our people
from many countries like USA.
The production and productivity of Wheat
crop were quite low, when India became
independent in 1947.
The production of Wheat was only 6.46 million
tones and productivity was merely 663 kg per
hectare during 1950-51, which was not sufficient
to feed the Indian population.
5. Several policy decisions and actions were taken by
Government of India from time to time to increase
production and productivity in the country.
The Government of India appointed a commission
in 1961 to assess the feasibility of increasing the crop
productivity under prevailing Indian ecological
conditions.
The Ministry of Agriculture, Govt. of India launched
and implemented various Centrally Sponsored/
Central Sector Schemes, namely, IADP (1960-61),
IAAP (1964-65), High Yielding Varieties Programme

19. What is SWI ?
New concept and practice of
wheat cultivation manipulating the
soil environment favorably for
better root and shoot growth using
principles of SRI
Wide spacing of plants for better
light and air utilization
Increased use of compost and
organic matter for the soil
Quality seed to be selected and
treated using appropriate biotic
and biotic agents
Better soil aeration by use of
mechanical weedier .
