6. INTRODUCTION
“Everything else may wait but not AGRICULTURE”
-Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru
The rural agricultural work experience programme (RAWE) is being
conducted every year in the 7
th
semester. In this programme, all
students are divided into different groups and are assigned to carry
out different activities under the proper guidance of our respected
teachers known as supervisors and also with the coordinators
cooperation and participation of the villagers. Here, Participatory
Rural Appraisal (PRA) technique is conducted to gain experience. So,
we were required to carry out the exercises in the assigned village
with the help of the villagers and submit our report through
different maps.
During the PRA exercise, we were exposed to village situation and we
got a basic understanding of various on-farm activities. Each and
every student developed communication skills during the
presentation conducted regularly under this programme and during
training, demonstration and exhibition.
Various exercises under this project developed knowledge of the
student and revised all the courses that we studied for the last 3
years. We are now comfortable while communicating with the
villagers.
I think the most important achievement of this RAWE program is
that it has generated interest in the minds of the students to do
something for the villagers because they have very closely observed
the real problems and difficulties faced by the poor farmers.

imparting quality, practical and production oriented education for agriculture
degree programme. The World Bank (1975) stated that there was little emphasis
on curricular or agribusiness outside Government jobs. Therefore, the agenda
for the 21
st
century in agricultural education should be drawn on the basis of
challenges it has to meet in the near future. RAWE programme provides
significant hands on experience in acquiring knowledge & skill.

14. PARTICIPATORY RURAL
APPRAISAL (PRA)
PRA is a process of involving local people in the analysis and
interpretation of local situation. PRA is a methodology for
interacting with villagers, understanding them and learning from
them. It involves a set of principles, a process of communication and
a menu of methods seeking villager’s participation in putting forward
their points of view to make use of such learning. It initiates a
participatory process and sustains it. Its principles and the menu of
methods help in organizing participation.
PRA constitutes a process of involvement with rural people for
indigenous knowledge building exercise. It is a way of learning form
villagers and with their support to investigate, analyze and evaluate
constraints and opportunities. It helps to make informed and timely
decisions regarding developmental projects. The participation of
rural people can be facilitated through PRA for planning,
implementing and monitoring of rural developing programme.
Objectives
To generate information and collection of data for immediate
or future use.
For greater and better involvement of villages by learning
about their perceptions, experiences and capabilities.
For learning about the impacts of earlier or ongoing policies
and programme and to frame new ones.
For validation and cross-checking of data collected from other
sources.
For training of different categories of persons involved in the
development process, whether from Govt., NGOs, Banks,
Researchers, Extension Agents, Scientists, etc.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 9
15. PRA Techniques
PRA is both an attitude and methodology. It is one of the tools of
surveying that helps outsiders to understand the village symbols,
systems, dynamics, and politics by using various techniques as well as
by methods of direct observation and discussion. The process of
understanding the agro system and the social organization can only
be successful with the total involvement of the village people & the
officials concerned.
Need For PRA
Sustained change and the need for accurate and timely
information.
It advances that the people themselves are “solution agents”
for their problems.
It cuts down the “Normal Professional Bias” and anti-poverty
bias towards people.
Reduces down the normal time consuming long methods of
survey which consumes the most needed resources and that
gives results after a long time.
The method is cost effective, accurate and timely.
Purpose of PRA
To use farmer’s criteria, choices and understand the local
environment with clear local priorities.
To learn farmer’s indigenous technologies.
To achieve for triangulation using different methods &
involving various people to check and recheck the findings.
To develop self-critical analysis and direct contact with local
needs and communities.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 10
16. GUIDELINES FOR CONDUCTING INTERACTION
IN PRA:
Before
Meet the villagers with an open and frank-mind. Tell them who
you are and why you have come.
Build up personal rapport with villagers.
Identify villagers who are willing to share their experiences.
Always begin to interview by relaxing the tension of the
interviewer by asking general questions and setting the climate
for discussion.
Select a suitable place for the interview. Sit down with the
villagers on the same floor.
During
Listen carefully, show empathy and be patient.
Intense and careful observation is most important.
Don’t interrupt, suggest or prescribe.
Be polite, gentle and accommodative.
Head nodding during interview is avoided.
Try to follow existing customs of the village.
There is no point in getting impatient or becoming too much
inquisitive when the villagers discuss among themselves.
After
At the end of the interview, all the interviews must be thanked
individually by the members of the group for giving time &
sharing their experience.
Sit down with all the members and record all the information
collected and the process of information generation.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 11
17. PARTICIPATORY
MAPPING/MODELLING
This is the construction of a village area using rangoli powders or
chalk on the ground or a cement floor for understanding the village
lay out ,main features such as housing, temples, stores and other
infrastructure and other resources like forests, lands, watersheds
etc.
Purpose
To get an impression of the social and physical layout of the
village as perceived by villagers themselves.
To understand globally the social structure of the village, which
live there, which facilities is there, where they are located etc.
To get an impression of the natural resource environment of the
village as perceived by the villagers.
Situation Where Applicable
Participatory maps are useful in identifying status of land holding
and animals of different households. In identifying beneficiaries of
various developmental programmes etc. Through participatory
mapping other items like dry land/ irrigated land, rivers, forest lands
and temple lands, tanks and nullahs and other water resources could
be identified. The participatory mapping can also be used to prepare
treatment plans for soil and water conservations, forestry and other
treatments.

18. ORIENTATION PROGRAMME
Before direct exposure to the village there was an orientation
programme in the college itself from31.08.2016-07.09.2016. The
motto of this programme was to aware the students about the works
which should be done during the whole semester. All the students,

21. RAPPORT BUILDING WITH
THE VILLAGERS
We were assigned to a particular village i.e. Achyutpur. That village
was almost 15km away from our Krishi Vigyan Kendra, albeit we
move to other villages like Choromuha, Dihakuransa, Bandareshwara
and Krishnapada still we are more connected with Achyutpur.Going
to a new place to do PRA was at first filled with excitement and
nervousness both.
In order to boost our confidence our KVK members like PC Madam –
Mrs (Dr). Tilottama Pattnaik , Mrs. Dharitri Madam,( Scientist,
Home Science), Bipra Sir (Farm Manager) and Dr. K.C Samal
accompanied us to that village on the first day of the visit (20th
September, 2016).We kept our vehicles beside the main road and
entered into the village. The villagers were busy with their works.
We addressed them with folded hands and head bowed in respect.
We introduced ourselves as 4th yr. B.Sc. (Ag) students from OUAT,
Bhubaneswar and described our motto of our visit. We put forward
numerous questions regarding the village history, crop grown,
standard of living of the people, organizations & institutions,
available resources, problems & opportunities. They listened
patiently to our politely posed questions and answered with great
interest. We arrived at sensitizes and important issues using open
ended questions. We requested them to help us in mapping, modeling,
matrix ranking, wealth ranking, transact walk and other PRA
activities and they showed enthusiastic & active participation.
Towards the end, we felt as if we belong to a single family. We knew
each other both personally and professionally. We got tremendous
cooperation from both the villages’ residents. On the last day of
completion of PRA, we thanked each villager individually for helping
us throughout by devoting their valuable time & sharing their
bountiful experiences.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 16

HOST FARMER
In Achyutpur, I visited Mr. Shyam sundar barik’s (my host farmer)
home. I wished him with folded hands and gave my introduction in
brief.He greeted us happily into the house and addressed me to the
other members of the house. Then he offered chair to me. They
asked about my native place and about my family members. I also
interacted with them informally. Farming is his main occupation. He
has a joint family. He is of average economic status. He is literate
and his hand is good in farming operation. He has a great knowledge
about farming.I was very happy by interacting with my host farmer
family member. I took a good bye with a smiling face & they assured
me for their fully cooperation.
Mr. Prabhat lenka who lived in Achyutpur was also my 2
nd
host
farmer. On the 1
st
day of my visit to the village I searched his home
by asking other villagers and finally I found it. When I entered my
host farmer house I knocked the door and after some time host
farmers wife came and open the door. Then I wished her with folded
hand and I introduce myself as a student of College of Agriculture
and here, we are allotted host farmers to learn more about
agriculture, crop production, and enhancing the practical
knowledge.My host wasn’t there. But his son met me who was a
genius in agriculture. They asked about my native place and about my
family members. I also interacted with them informally. I enquired
about him & his family by asking informal questionsand also he told
me that he will fully cooperativewith me and takes me to his crop
field next week and gives all practical knowledge. I was very happy
by interacting with my host farmer family member. After all

In village Achyutpur , there 1 river(lingara river) which can be
converted to commercial Pisciculture units. As the water table
depth is high, there is large scope of irrigation through well and
tube wells
In village Achyutpur,as there is no ponds,there is scope for
digging 2-3 ponds which can also be converted to fishery unit for
fingerlings production. For irrigation very deep bore wells are
required as the water table is at very low depth.So more no of
tube wells can be dug which can provide drinking water and also
help in irrigation.

42. MATRIX RANKING
Villager’s preference & attitude towards a particular topic of
interest is revealed to us by this technique. It helps us to
understand farmer’s priorities in crop varieties, vegetables, tree
species, livestock categories, soil & water conservation
techniques, irrigation methods etc. The reason for their liking &
disliking & the suitable difference in choice & priority among the
villagers of different areas can also be understood which help us
to prioritize & determine the strategy.
PURPOSE :-
• To get better understanding of farmer’s decision making
process.
• To identify criteria used to prioritize & select certain items of
activities over others.
Situation where applicable :-
Matrix ranking can be used to study a range of subjects like soil,
crops, crop varieties, trees, fodder, types of cattle & breeds .
WEALTH RANKING
Wealth ranking is a method of ranking or grouping of households on
the basis of income, wealth and other local measures of wellbeing.
Different criteria can be used for wealth ranking based on rural
perceptions. Wealth ranking is based on the presumption that rural
people have the necessary knowledge to group households which
implies that they have knowledge of kinds and positions of household
assets, other items and attributes to the household concern.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 37
43. Purpose

50. SEASONALITY
Seasonality is an exercise to determine seasonal patterns in rural
areas as related to farming practices, rainfall, labour availability
etc. It attempts to establish regular cycle or pattern of activity
and occurrences within a community over 12 months. It determine
the seasonal calendar as understood and practiced by the
villagers. This is determined in terms of odiya months, like
Baisakha, Jyestha etc. and then adjusted to the English calendar.
This is built upon using different lengths of sticks or numbers of
stores or seeds to quantify items such as employment, availability
of agri inputs, income, expenditure etc.
Purpose :
• A seasonal calendar helps to present large quantities of
diverse information in a common time frame. It compares
community activities for month by month across sectorial
boundary. It identifies cycles of activity that occur within the
life of community on regular basis and helps determining
whether there are common periods of excessive environmental
problems of opportunity over the course of normal year. These
yearly cycles are important in determining for example : labour
availability, timing for project activity, potential absorptive
capacity for new activities, times of diseases and food
shortage and employment generation.
• Data for seasonal calendar was collected from community
group. Effort was made to diversify informants from
community groups i.e. men and women, informal leader,
young and old residents.

ACTIVITIES THAT WERE DONE
During rawe
A. CROP PLANNING FOR
DIFFERENT SITUATION
• Crop planning allows us to generate an idea of what need to get
prepared, seeded or transplanted to meet the needs of the
marketing plan. Crop rotations, planned orders of specific crop
or crop families, reduce the impact of pests, pathogens and
weeds. Including cover crops in a farm rotation can add
significant fertility to the soil, build soil organic matter,
attract beneficial insects and reduce the weed pressure.
• It’s hard to defor a particular farm or village without a proper
map.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 53
59. • During our visit to Village Achyutpur which is a rice dominated
area and of which most of the farmers are marginal in land
holding where we came across various aspects of agriculture.
The RAWE programme was held at Krishi Vigyan Kendra,
Badchana, Jajpur where we came across various famers who
are very advanced in every aspect of farming and they know a
lot more than us . One such example is Kishori Kant Rout who
is an advanced farmer and knows about most of the schemes
and advancement in technology.
• They were mostly using cultivars of rice like khandagiri,
Udaygiri, Tejas, Tapaswini, Nadiaphula, Culture (Early
Duration Type), Swarna, Swarna sub – 1, Beena ( Medium
Duration Type), Pooja, 1018, Kalashree, Chakadola,
Sarchina (Long Duration Type) etc. Mostly it was an irrigated
area. In rice cultivation they were actually following the
recommended dose of fertiliser application like 40:20:20,
60:30:30 and 80:40:40 N2: P2O5:K2O kg/ha for early,
medium and long duration respectively. We also came across
some of the weeds like Avena fatua, Echinochola crus-gali,
Leptocloa chinensis etc. To control using implements like cono
weeder and the chemicals like pretilachlor, nomini gold,
hitcel, kalinga heera etc. Achyutpur is an advanced farm
mechanised village, most of the farmers were using latest farm
implements in the field like MB plough, Cultivator, Rotavator,
Cono weeder, Transplanter, Tractor, Seed cum fertiliser
drill, Combine harvester etc.
• A group of students started collecting information from
Kishori Kant Rout and fellow farmers about the crop plan
followed by them. From the info provided by them we got to
know that most of the farmers follow multiple farming, the
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 54
60. type of soil was basically clay loam and clay type, for
irrigation they mostly depend on bore wells and canal water
and the type of land was medium and low land. During Kharif
season the farmers cultivate rice and during the Rabi season
they grow mostly vegetables (Cabbage, cauliflower,
coriander, onion), pulses (green gram, black gram), sugar
crops basically sugarcane and even some crops like groundnut,
colocasia and potato. In the Kharif season they are practising
sowing of paddy in single row method (BGREI Scheme).
Recommendations:
To adopt the multiple cropping system along with
the other allied sectors like poultry, mushroom .
Not to use the same varieties to avoid fluctuation in
the field. Apply herbicides and pesticides in time with
recommended dose.
WEED MANAGEMENT
PRACTICES
MANAGEMENT OF WEEDS :
It can be done by these methods:
• CULTURAL METHOD
• MECHANICAL METHOD
• CHEMICAL METHOD
• BIOLOGICAL METHOD
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 55
61. 1.CULTURAL METHOD :
• Summer ploughing, Crop rotation,Inter cropping, Line sowing,
Timely sowing, etc.
2.MECHANICAL METHOD:
• These are :Hand hoeing, hand pulling, tillage, sickling, Mulching,
burning, digging etc..
3.CHEMICAL METHOD:
Rice (Direct Seeded Condition)
• Butachlor @ 1kg/ha and Pretilachlor @
0.75kg/ha. The Pretilachlor is also applied with
Safner. Anilophos and Pendimethalin is also
applied @ 0.3kg/ha & 1.0kg/ha respectively.
• 2, 4 D Ethyl Ester @ 0.5 kg/ha after 25 days of
the emergence of the crop along with Safner @
0.5%.
Transplanted Rice
• All is same as the direct seeded rice plant except
the application of Pendimethalin.
• On the other hand Oxadiazone in the name of Ronestar @
0.5kg/ha and Thiobencarb in the trade name of Saturn @
1.5kg/ha are applied as Pre emergence herbicide.
• In case of Nursery the herbicides applied are Soffit,
Thiobencarb and Propanil @ 0.5kg/ha, 1kg/ha and
3kg/ha respectively.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 56
62. PULSES:
• Metachlor and Pendimethalin @ 0.75kg/ha are applied as pre
emergence that to 1-2DAS.
• On the other hand Fuzalfopethyl @ 0.05kg/ha is applied as
post emergence that to 20 days after emergence.
SUGARCANE
• Pre emergence application of Metrimuzin @ 0.75kg/ha and
Atrazine @ 1kg/ha 1-2 days after the planting of the setts.
• Post emergence application of 2,4 D ethyl ester @ 0.8 kg/ha
after 25-30 Days of the growth of the plant which is
generally planted in the Dec- Jan.
• Early post emergence of Glyphosate @ 1kg/ha after 60-
90 days after planting.
POTATO
• Metrimuzin @ 0.05kg/ha and Pendinethalin @ 0.75 kg/ha are
applied as pre emergence application.
• Fuzalfopethyl @ 0.5kg/ha as Post emergence.
• In case of SUGARCANE, MAIZE & SORGHUM striga is an
important weed and to control it 2,4 D ethyl ester @ 1kg/ha is
applied.
COLE CROPS
• Pendimethalin @ 1kg/ha as pre emergence application and
Fluchloralin @ 0.75kg/ha is applied as Pre plant incorporation.
• Fuzalfopethyl @ 0.75kg/ha is applied as post emergence.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 57
63. 4.BIOLOGICAL CONTROL :
• We can control by biological means. There are some biological
entities which will suppress the weeds without harming our
crops.
• Like Zygogramma bicolorata a beetle which suppresses the
carrot grass, BIOHERBICIDE can be used. But is not popular.
FERTILISER MANAGEMENT
PRACTICES
When we went Achyutpur, we observed their cropping pattern ,crop
rotation, cropping sequence, their soil type, finally the soil health
card. Hence, we concluded a specified fertilizer dose for crops
grown in achyutpur village.
FERTILISER DOSE FOR RICE:
DIRECT SEEDED RICE:- 60:30:30 N2:P2O5:K2O Kg/ha, FYM: 5
t/ha; We advised them to apply Nitrogen in 3 splits i.e. 1/3
RD
during
sowing,1/3
rd
at tillering & remaining at P.I. stage. Full dose of P2O5
&K2O applied during sowing. 25 kg of Zn. Should be incorporated in
soil.
TRANSPLANTED RICE: 80:40:40 N2:P2O5:K20 Kg/ha And
all the recommended practices are same as above.
FERTILISER DOSE FOR SUGARCANE: 250:100:150
N2:P2O5:K2O Kg/ha. We suggested them to apply Azotobacter
which will reduce the nitrogen dose up to 20-30kg/ha.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 58
64. FERTILISER DOSE FOR POTATO: 200:100:150
N2:P2O5:K2O Kg /ha. 25 tractor loads of FYM is applied during land
preparation
FERTILISER DFOSE OF PULSES: 20:40:40 N2:P2O5:K2O
Kg/ha. Different strains of Rhizobium are applied to
different leguminous crops.
FERTILISER DOSE OF OKRA: 40:20:20 N2:P2O5:K2O Kg/ha
POST HARVEST TECHNOLOGY
• The instant a crop is removed from the ground, or
separated from its parent plant, it begins to deteriorate .
Post harvest treatment largely determines final quality .
• The most important goals of post harvest handling are keeping
the product .
POST HARVEST TECHNOLOGY
• Post harvest technology is inter-disciplinary “Science and
Technology” applied to agricultural produce after harvest
for its protection, conservation, processing, packaging,
distribution, marketing and utilization .
• Importance of post harvest technology lies in the fact that it
has capability to meet the food requirement of growing
population .
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 59
65. POST HARVEST INDUSTRIES
The post harvest industry includes the following main components:
• Harvesting and threshing
• Drying and storage
• Processing (conservation and / transformation of the produce)
• Utilization by consumer including home processing.
We along with KVK scientist Miss Dharitri Mam had done the
demonstration about storage of pulses in Dihakuransa village with
insect and moisture proof polythene.
SOIL SAMPLING
In our allotted KVK i.e. KVK, Badchana, Jajpur we had done soil
sampling along with determination of soil pH, EC, Organic carbon
content on 20
th
and 21
st
October 2016 under the proper guidance
of Subhasish Das sir .
MATERIALS USED:
Spade or auger
Khurpi
Wooden harmer
Sieve
Sampling bag
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 60
66. PROCEDURE:
• For irrigated condition one sample is collected from 2.5ha
and for non-irrigated condition one sample is collected from
10ha land.
• A site was selected in the KVK farm for sample collection.
• 1
st
sample collection was done with the help of spade and
khurpi and then with screw auger.
• A “V” shape cut of depth 30cm was given and a thin soil slice of
1inch was taken out with the khurpi.
• For collecting sample with auger; the auger was inserted to a
depth of 25-30cm and the soil was taken out.
• The collected soil was dried under shade and the materials like
roots, stone, pebbles were removed
• The dried soil aggregates were broken with a wooden hammer
and sieved through a 2mm sieve
• The bulk of soil was reduced to 1/2kg by quartering.
• This sample was collected in a sampling bag.
• The bag was labelled with informations like date of collection,
type of land, name of sampler,crop grown in field etc.
PRECAUTIONS:
• Soil should not be collected from swampy area, near bund
or near compost pit. Soil should not be dried under sun or
near fire.
• The soil aggregates should not be broke with iron hammer.
• The soil should not be stored in fertilizer bag and godown.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 61
67. USE OF ORGANIC MANNURE AND
BIO-FERTILIZERS
• As maures and fertilizers are providing essential nutrients to
the plant through chemical fertilizers , there is a large need
for the awareness of organic manures and bio fertilizers.
CONCEPT:
• Organic manures mainly 2 types.
• 1- Bulky organic manures
• 2 - Concentrated organic manures.
• Bulky organic manure , low nutrient content but concentrated
organic manure have high nutrient content.
• We also provided information regarding collection of manure
which will help in less nutrient loss from the manures. We
provided information regarding why byre system of collection
is the best and suggested them. We also suggested them to
go bur covered pit method of storage which will cause less
nutrient loss.
• We also provided information regarding composting and vermin
composting. Those who did nit have cattle we suggest to go for
ADCO process of composting.
VERMICOMPOSTING
• Vermi composting is a method of making compost with the
use of earthworms .
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 62
68. • We all demonstrated them how to use bio fertilizers very
efficiently .
• Rhizobium : used in pulses
• Azatobacter: used in rice cotton and sugarcane
• Azospirilum: used in sorghum
• We also recommended them to use VAM and phosphorus
solubilising bacteria which enhance the performance of above
“N” fixing bacteria.
• We also suggested them to go for azola cultivation in their
standing rice field. Azolla pinnata grow very well in their
climate.
• As there is no such big forests nearby we suggested them to
go for ‘ insitu green manuring’. As they have mainly low lands
and medium lands , and KVK is also practicing Dhanicha in field
we recommended to go for Dhanicha atleast once in a year.
WATER MANAGEMENT
PRACTICES
• Water management includes two aspects i.e. irrigation and
drainage.
• It is the medium through which we can better manage the
distribution and optimum use of water.
• Village scenario
• Here as per as irrigation is concern the farming totally depend
on canal irrigation.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 63
69. The status also says that Achyutpur has a great potential of ground
water exploitation
Total capacity Developed Undeveloped Potentiality
18596 13350 4548 Maximum
(Information of canal command Area of Achyutpur )
Jajpur is a rice dominated area.
RICE
• 1cm water is required per day in rice cultivation.
• At tillering stage 2cm standing water is required.
• At PI stage 5 + 2cm or 5 -2 cm water is required. It is the
most critical stage of rice. Shortage of water leads to chaffy
grain production.
• 10 to 15 days before maturity water is removed from the field.
• IW/CPE = 5 -7 cm /62.5mm. ASM = FC - PWP i.e. irrigate
the field up to 50%
Constraints:
• Un timely availability of water
• Not availability sufficient water continuously.
• Quality of water due to presence of more industries.
• Untimely sowing of crop.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 64
70. Strategic action plan for water management.
• Irrigation point are more effective .
• Creation of awareness among the farmers.
• Correction of faulty irrigation points.
• Creation of irrigation water potential per annum
through PMSKY through ongoing state plan.
• Large scale conversion of rain fed area to irrigating areas
in next 5 yrs.
NURSERY MANAGEMENT
What do you mean by nursery?
A vegetable nursery is a place where young plants are cared for
during the early stages of growth.
Nursery Preparation at KVK, JAJPUR
• We all had done nursery preparation .The place selected was
well drained and proper lighted, and there was proper water
supply to that area. The soil selected was fertile and
healthy soil.
• The soil was covered with black polythene sheet and then
removed after 2 weeks.
• The size of the nursery bed taken was length-3m, width-1m,
and height- 15cm.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 65
71. • A space of 30-40 cm is left in between two beds help in
weeding, care against insect pest and excess draining
off water.
• The seeds were covered with paddy straw in order to protect
them from birds and other animals.
• Regular watering was done but excess water was drained out.
• Thinning was also done to maintain plant population.
FRUIT AND VEGETABLE
MANAGEMENT
In village Achyutpur lots of fruit and vegetables are cultivated
by the farmers but they have no knowledge about different
problems and their management we provide some idea about
the solutions.
Location: ACHYUTPUR is situated at a distance of only
14 K.M.s from Chandikhol state highway .
Fruit Crops: Banana, Mango, Coconut , Lemon , Water
melon, Papaya etc.
Vegetables: Potato, Tomato, Onion, Brinjal , Colocasia ,
Cucumber, Snake gourd, Bottle gourd ,Ridge gourd ,Okra etc.

COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 66
72. Constraints in Fruits and Vegetable Production:
Social Constraints:
• Irregular visit of extension workers,
• Lack of timely technical advice,
• Poor coordination among the grass root level workers,
• Non-uniform distribution of subsidies,
Technical Constraints
• Inadequate training program,
• Lack of soil testing facilities.
Economical Constraints:
• Absence of storage facilities,
• Low risk bearing capacity & high cost of technology.
MANAGEMENT OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLE:
• There should be selection of good variety .
• For weed management weedicides to be applied and for
disease and pest management proper fungicide, bactericide,
insecticides are to be sprayed.
• Proper post harvest management .
• For vegetable, a good nursery bed should be prepared for
disease management.
• Nutrients should be applied on soil test basis.
• Harvesting should be done at right time
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 67

of cross-wise white patches
We strongly recommended ,for prevention, Hot water treatment of
setts at 520C for 30 min or 500C for 2 hours followed by steeping
in 0.1% carbendazim solution. Grow resistant varieties like CO 6907,
CO 721.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 72
78. Groundnut
Tikka Disease: There are 2 stages, one, Early leaf spot (occurs
<35DAS) and Late Leaf spot (occurs >35DAS).. Both these
diseases are extremely damaging and reduce the effective
photosynthetic area and thus, yield.
We recommended Treat the seeds with Captan or Thiram at 4g/kg.
Spray Carbendazim@0.1% or Mancozeb@0.2%.
Mango
Anthracnose: The fungus produces leaf spots, blossom blight,
wither tip, twigs blight and fruit rot.
Spray carbendazim or Topsin M (0.1%) or Chlorothalonil (0.2 at 14
days intervals until harvest. Before storage, treat the fruits with
hot water (50-55°C), for 15 minutes or dip in Benomyl solution
(500ppm) or Thiobendazole (1000ppm) for 5 minutes or expose
them to ammonia and sulphur dioxide gases.
Banana

with greyish centre leaves possess dark brown to black margin.
Spray zineb@0.25% or copper oxy chloride@0.3% .
Wilt: The earliest symptoms are faint yellow streaks on the petiole
of oldest, lower most Leaves.
We recommended them to Use of disease free suckers for planting.
Drainage was a problem there so to avoid ill drained soils, and prefer
slightly alkaline soils (7-7.5 pH) for cultivation. Go for Poovan, Basrai
,Moonjil,etc, Dipping of suckers in carbendazim (0.1%) solution
before planting. Soil drench with 0.1% carbendazim.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 73
79. Damping off of vegetable seedlings
The Seedlings disintegrate before they come out of soil surface.
Seed dressing with Thiram or captan @ 2-3 g/Kg. Soil drenching
with 1% Bordeaux mixture or COC@ 0.3%. Biocontrol with
Trichoderma viride .
TRAINING & DEMONSTRATION
Training
Training is a technique of imparting specific skills to a group of
people who need them by creating an appropriate learning situation.
This is an effective method of transfer of technology.
Objectives
1. To impart the needed skills to a small group of people.
2. To motivate people to adopt new practices through skill
training.
Demonstration
Demonstration is given before group of people to show how to carry
out an entirely new practice or an old practice in a better way. It is
essentially skill training,when the emphasis is an effectively carrying
out a job,hearing,participating and practicing in a group which shall
stimulate interest and action.
Objectives
1. To teach skills and stimulate people to action.
2. To get rid of inefficient or ineffective movements.
3. To improve upon the results by doing a job in a better way.
4. To build up farmers confidence and satisfaction on the
practice.
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 74
80. During our village attachment programme we conducted some
training programmes in villages. In the training programme we
imparted training to villagers on different improved technology
related to agriculture. In selecting the topics emphasis was given on
technical feasibility and economic viability of the technologies. It
was taken care that the topics on which the training was imparted
suited to economy and culture of the village. The main objective of
the programme was to inculcate some of the low and no cost
technologies and profitable enterprises for the wholesome
development of the community.
We attended one training programmes in village ACHYUTPUR
.Around 30-40 villagers attended training and demonstration
programme. There was a good mix of old and youth, men and women
participants. The villagers keenly participated in those programmes
and there was a healthy interaction between them and us. We used
several extension teaching aids like banners and leaflets for better
understanding of the topics.
We collected all the information and materials required for our
training and demonstration. We made posters and folders on our
assigned topics to make our training programme successful.we
explain all the things during training and demonstration simply in
local languages and also we could able to clarify the queries of the
farmers. Our activities were evaluated by our programme
supervisors and snr.scientist and programme coordinator of
KVK,jajpur .we successfully completed our training and
demonstration programme.

81. TOPICS ON WHICH TRAINING
WAS IMPARTED
VILLAGE – ACHYUTPUR ( 24-10-2016 )
TITLE : Integrated Farming System
PROBLEM IDENTIFIED :
Decline in Agriculture growth rate .
Decline in factor productivity.
Incresing malnutrition.
Low farm income .
Increasing unemployment .
Increasing cost of production .
OBJECTIVES :
To identify existing farming systems in specific areas &
access their relative humidity.
To maintain sustainable production system without
damaging resources/environment.
TRAINING MATERIAL :
Leaflet
Flex
IFS Model
CONCLUSION : In concluding , I may add that ..
Profit is sustainability enhanced when vegetables were
included in the system .
Under Rice based cropping systems the profitability
gets reduced when area under rice is more.
Hence, Priority on allied enterprises is necessary to
increase the farm income.

82. Socialization Sessions Of Students with
Villagers , Progressive farmers , Contact farmers
,Local representatives
What is Socialization?
Socialization is a term used by sociologists, social
psychologists, anthropologists, political scientists, and
educationalists to refer to the lifelong process of inheriting and
disseminating norms, customs, values and ideologies, providing
an individual with the skills and habits necessary for
participating within their own society.
We had allotted in Krishi Vigyan Kendra for Village attachment
programme for duration 6 weeks . In these 6 weeks we had to
increase our social relationship with
(1) Villagers
(2) Contact farmers
(3) Progressive farmers &
(4) Local representatives .
These were the first step towards the socialization sessions of
students with villagers:
• First day we reached at Krishi Vigyan Kendra nearly 4 p.m. .
After that , KVKs official had arranged an interactive session
between KVKs official & students. Among the discussion, KVKs
official told us about the adopted village, named Achyutpur .
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 77
83. • Tomorrow morning we had gone out for adopted village,
Achyutpur . After reached that village, A socialization
sessions occur between the students & villagers.
• Villagers viewed the students are in a very positive light
regarding attitude &behaviour and did not hesitate to
complement the personal character of the students. This set
the foundation for the remarkable rapport that was evident
between them.
• Often, villagers commented that by the time, the student
completed the module, they were considered as family. In
many instances, students helped the farmers and their
children to read and write
• Students would read letter for illiterate farmers as well as
tutor and assist children with school work .Especially the
farmers and students conversations had over a coffee.
• Most farmers never had the opportunity to travel and
experience other cultures and they realized that the students
were away to bring the culture of other place or cities to them.
• Since most of the farmers had no formal education, they were
appreciative of the students and took advantage of them to
gain knowledge.
• The farmers often discussed the importance of
combining theoretical and practical knowledge.
Socialization Sessions Of Students With Contact farmers &
Progressive farmers :
• After villagers interaction, we moved to find out the contact
farmers and we contacted many farmers , among them some
farmers appeared to be exceptionally progressive , but we
COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE, OUAT, BBSR-3 Page 78
84. had to choose only 50 progressive farmers among them , so
that they will dedicatedly involve with our students.
• We Distributed 2 farmers to each students. Then , We
explained the purpose of visit to their village as well as Krishi
Vigyan Kendra.
• In this session , There were three basic data collection
procedures employed to achieve the objectives.
• The first method was a census survey ,using a quantitative
questionnaire .
• The second method utilized the same questionnaire as a
structured interview guide for interviews with farmers.
• Focus groups, among students and farmers, were utilized as
the third data collection procedure.
• Some farmers felt that the students taught the farmers,
while others felt as through the farmers were doing most of
the teaching. In terms of giving, the farmers viewed the
students as bringing knowledge and ideas and helping the
farmers to create a network.
• Farmers were aware that both theoretical and practical
knowledge were most effective when used as a community basis
and felt that the students contributed greatly to their base of
theoretical knowledge.
• Farmer felt that the students also contributed to knowledge in
the area of sustainable agriculture, waste management &
practices that reduce agricultural impacts on the environment.
• Farmers recognized that students were not experts, but
perceived them as their point of access to the experts & other

85. knowledgeable entities & sources of information
through OUAT.
• Farmers also mentioned that, if KVKs provided them with more
of the materials needed to experiments, they would do so
more often.
• Farmers also mentioned that ,the program should only focus on
individual farmers because trying to get the farmers to work
together is a “ Waste Of Time “
• Farmers reported the “Distrust & Corruption” among farmers
in the community & said that they were resistant to working
together ,illustrated by the following quote “I didn’t want to
be involved with the problems of the community as a whole
because they don’t know anything ”
• Then we also discussed about Use of vermicomposting & green
manure crops.
• Through farmer interviews, it also became evident that the
farmers didn’t realize that they could compost with crop
residues, kitchen waste or other organic outputs generated
from farm activities, other than animal manure.
• Then all 50 farmers agreed that their role should be to:
• Learn from the student
• Work well with the students to develop implement new ideas.
• Value & respect different opinions & ideas.
• Be a model of inspiration to the student.
• Next day , we had gone out to seen a very progressive farmers,

get inspired by a large farmer like Ranjit Samal There farmers
are well managing the time .
The farmers of village Krushnapada are quite underdeveloped
or knowledge about technology is of minimum level as they are
