Wani, S.P.Chander, G.Vineela C.[Vermicomposting: Recycling Wastes into Valuable Manure for Sustained Crop Intensification in the Semi-Arid Tropics]Vermicomposting: Recycling Wastes into Valuable Manure for Sustained Crop Intensification in the Semi-Arid Tropics

Widespread multinutrient deficiencies in the semi-arid tropics (SAT) are among major factors for large gaps between farmers’ current crop yields and potential yields. In this study, we adopted a stratified soil sampling method to assess soil fertility-related constraints in farmers’ fields in eig...


Chander, G.Wani, S.P.Sahrawat, Kanwar LalDixit, S.Venkateswarlu, B.Rajesh, C.Rao, P.R.Pardhasaradhi, G.[Soil test-based nutrient balancing improved crop productivity and rural livelihoods: Case study from rainfed semi-arid tropics in Andhra Pradesh, India]Soil test-based nutrient balancing improved crop productivity and rural livelihoods: Case study from rainfed semi-arid tropics in Andhra Pradesh, India

Soil health assessment of farmers’ fields in watershed villages in Medak district, Andhra Pradesh, India showed widespread deficiencies of sulfur (S), boron (B), and zinc (Zn) in addition to organic carbon and phosphorus (P). Participatory on-farm trials on soil test-based application of deficien...

With growing environmental and energy concerns, Jatropha plantations are promoted in degraded/waste lands for the biodiesel production. Nutrient rich nonedible deoiled seed cake, a by-product of Jatropha left out after oil extraction was evaluated at the ICRISAT centre at Patancheru, India as an ...


Wani, S.P.Chander, G.Sahrawat, Kanwar LalRao, P.N.[Integrated nutrient management using deoiled Jatropha cake for sustained and economic food production]Integrated nutrient management using deoiled Jatropha cake for sustained and economic food production

Existing large crop yield gaps between farmers’ fields in rainfed areas and the achievable yields are abridged through integrated watershed management during 2002-2007, while improving farmers’ livelihoods also. In addition to water shortages, emerging widespread deficiencies of multiple micro- a...


Wani, S.P.Chander, G.Sahrawat, Kanwar Lal[Science-led interventions in integrated watersheds to improve smallholders’ livelihoods]Science-led interventions in integrated watersheds to improve smallholders’ livelihoods

The effects of growing Jatropha in on-farm and on-station degraded lands were evaluated on carbon (C) sequestration and soil properties. Jatropha accumulated and added to soil significant amounts of C (305 kg ha−1 year−1) from the year one itself. Overall, a 3–5-year old plantation added per year...
