"International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) is implementing a project\r\nsupported by Sir Dorabji Tata Trust (SDTT) for the last ten years in the states of Madhya Pradesh and\r\nRajasthan and a project supported by Sir Ratan Tata Trust (SRTT) in four districts of Madhya Pradesh\r\nand Jharkhand for improving livelihoods of small and marginal farmers through sustainable management\r\nof natural resources. ICRISAT has adopted consortium approach in partnership with Non-Governmental\r\nOrganizations (NGOs), State Agricultural Universities (SAUs) and Government line departments in the\r\nrespective states. The project interventions have piloted science-led farmer-centric integrated watershed\r\nmanagement for enhancing natural resource use efficiency for crop production. Based on the various\r\ninterventions for improved management of land, water and crops, the consortium team identified the\r\nsuccess stories from different districts covering various activities such as balanced nutrient management,\r\nfarmer participatory selection of improved varieties, enhancing water-use efficiency, using improved\r\nlandform treatments, minimizing rainy season fallows, income-generating activities like goat rearing,\r\nvermicomposting and improved livestock breed rearing including vegetable farming which can be shared\r\nwith other areas for benefiting the farmers. This compendium of success stories is based on the detailed\r\ninterviews with the farmers, collecting required information through targeted visits and interacting with the\r\ncommunity in the districts, their capacity enhancement and the continuity of the technology. The analysis\r\nis based on factual data from the users and other views.\r\nThe success stories clearly revealed that crop productivity significantly improved with improved\r\nmanagement and also resulted in increased family incomes through use of intensification of the systems\r\nwith balanced nutrient management, water management, improved seeds of high-yielding short-duration\r\ncultivars and crop diversification; microenterprises benefiting women, self-help groups and individuals also\r\nenhanced the family incomes and empowered women in the project areas. This compendium comprises\r\nmany success stories from districts of Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Jharkhand."^^ . "2013" . . .
