        <dc:description>In  India,  sorghum  is  cultivated  during  rainy  and  post‐rainy  season  in  central  and  western &#13;
Maharashtra,  Northern  Karnataka,  Andhra  Pradesh  and  Tamil  Nadu.  Sorghum  is  cultivated  in &#13;
Maharashtra  both  for  grain  and  fodder  during  kharif  (on  13.84  lakh  ha)  and  rabi  season  (on &#13;
31.12 lakh ha). The rabi sorghum occupied 64 % of sorghum area. In Marathwada rabi sorghum &#13;
is cultivated in 10.48 lakh ha, and in Western Maharashtra in 20.14   lakh ha. &#13;
HOPE  project  aims  at  increasing  productivity  in  the  target  areas  from  35‐40  %  in  four  years. &#13;
Under  this  project  six  clusters  and  12  villages  are  covered&#13;
  in  Marathwada  and  Western &#13;
Maharashtra.   &#13;
Besides  targeting  improved  varieties,  targeting  on  the  key  recommended  technologies, &#13;
management  practices  like  drilling  of  fertilizer  along  with  seed,  seed  treatment,  deep  sowing, &#13;
wide  row  spacing,  optimum  plant  population,  Integrated  Pest  Management  (IPM)  and &#13;
Integrated Nutrient Management (INM) are crucial. In addition, moisture use efficiency &#13;
towards &#13;
reducing drought risk is vital. &#13;
