Promotion of Weather Resilient Technologies, Practices, and Services: Bajra Crop

Improved/resilient agricultural practices, services and technologies for Bajra crop cultivation, were promoted in Mathura district of Uttar Pradesh, India Bajra (Pearl Millet) is a Kharif (monsoon season) crop, cultivated in 8.7 million ha land in dry and warm climatic conditions across India. It is cultivated as a major Kharif crop in Mathura district of Uttar Pradesh, India. The crop selection is due to poor irrigation facilities and scanty rainfall in this area, although the local varieties sown in this area grow very tall and matures late. Excess rainfall often caused lodging of the standing crops especially the once sown via the broadcasting method. Besides, the yield of these varieties is also very low.
