Farming Systems Components for Selected Areas in India: Evidence from ICRISAT (International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics)

摘要

Research on natural watersheds in India has shown that using more input-intensive farming systems than those presently used in the semiarid tropics can substantially raise farm profits. This report outlines successful soil and water management, cropping, runoff collection, and supplementary irrigation systems for use in the semiarid tropics.
