Area, production and productivity of important crops in Odisha

Rice in Odisha

In Odisha, rice is synonymous with food,

and agriculture to a large extent means growing rice. Age-old social customs and festivals in Orissa have strong

relevance to different phases of rice cultivation:

Rice in Odisha is grown over an area of 4.45 m ha

91 % of area under cereals

93 % of total cereal production

65 % of area under food grains

83 % of total food grains production

Rice ecosystems in OdishaEcosystems Area under rice (mha)

Major stress (physical)

I. Rainfed 3.3 75 %

Upland 0.7 Drought prone

Medium land 0.4 Fairly stress free

Low land 2.2

Shallow water 1.2 Water logging less severe and flood prone

Semi deep water 0.8 Water logging and flood

Deep water 0.2 Early drought, flood and water logging

II Irrigated Kharif (bunded) (Upland, Medium land, Low lands)

0.8 25 % Water logging and poor drainage too much irrigation and rain water

Rabi 0.24 Low temperature at early seedling stage.

Causes of low rice yield in Orissa

Limited scope of water mang. Cloudiness (BSH: 4.9 June, 4.1 July, 4.2 Aug.,5.4 Sept.) Natural calamities Low soil fertility Low & imbalance use of fert. Problematic soil Poor seed replacement Poor plant stand Heavy infestation of pests Poor adoption of imprv. tech. Poor socio-economic status of

farmers

*25 experiments (15 in Puri and 10 in Bhadrak)

Issues Entry points

Non availability and high cost of Labour

DSR, Mechanical transplanting, use of weedicides

Low water use efficiency Laser leveling

Poor utilization of residual moisture after rice

zero tillage, minimum tillage

Imbalance fertilization SSNM

Lack of knowledge (Capacity building)

Training

Distress sale and poor marketing of produce

Market network and business model

Non availability of inputs in time

Dealer network , service provider

Some important Issues and interventions

Our immediate activities

• Sowing of green gram in Puri and Bhadrak district using ZT seed drill in farmers’ field in collaboration with the Agriculture Department.

• Demonstration on mechanical transplanting at KVK Puri and Bhadrak • Training on DSR and mechanical transplanting

• Demand analysis in Puri and Bhadrak districts using RRA tool

• Partners identification and SWOT
