Agricultural productivity can be increased by using efficient cropping patterns and water-use mechanisms

 





















Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana (PMKSY) is a flagship irrigation programme of the Govt. of India.

Maximum attention is given to drip and micro-irrigation projects.

Micro Irrigation systems utilize both pressure compensating and non-pressure compensating in-line dripper lines and micro sprinklers.Micro Irrigation Head unit consists of irrigation controller attached to assembly of Y or T Type Screen Filter,Venturi Injector for fertigation etc.Irrigation controller such as digital sequence cum cycle timer with digital temperature controller for a drip irrigation system is used to automate the watering for a drip Irrigation system.Some are available with programming features that allow each valve to be programmed independently from the others so that each zone can have independent schedules, start times, and watering durations is preferred.Pressure gauges are used to ensure that the drip system, filter system and pump operate at the correct pressure.Valves and controllers are used to deriving the maximum benefit from a drip irrigation system.Main line drip tubing or or mainline pipe to convey water from source to the sub-main in drip irrigation are made up of PVC (Polyvinyl chloride) or PE (Polyethylene) pipe.Submain line in drip irrigation system is a PVC pipe line that takes water from main line and supply water to the laterals.Irrigation control valve box seen as circular and rectangular valve box protects valves from damage due to lawn mowers and other garden equipments

A bumber crop and assured returns over its cost of cultivation is what makes any farmer happy. Let's take transplanted paddy as an example. Farmers spend money in agricultural land preparation, seed, seed treatment, fertilizer, herbicide, pesticides, other inputs applied at the time of last puddling and later 10, 30, 45 and 60 days after transplanting. MSP announcements made by the Government, based on the rcommendations of the Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices (CACP), gives significant returns over A2+FL costs for many crops (though it does not accounts for fixed costs).
A farmer calculates returns by considering various FIXED costs including imputed rental value of owned land (estimated value since actual value may not be available), depreciation and interests on value of owned fixed capital assets and VARIABLE costs of cultivation such as imputed value of family labour, hired labour, value of agricultural inputs such as manure, seed, seed treatment, fertilizer, herbicide, pesticides, irrigation expenses, and rent of farm equipments, depreciation of farm implements and farm buildings, rent paid for leased land (in case of land on lease) and the interest on working capital

  
Let me share some articles from this India Today magazine June 01,1998 issue which i bought with interest when i was a 4th year student of B.Sc.(Agri.). Having worked for so many years,now,i must say that there were ans still there are agro tycoons in Punjab. India has gradually emerged as a low-cost supplier farm produce to western countries. The export of farm produce has caught the fancy of leading industrialists too.

Sh.Amarinder Preet Singh Kahai found agriculture as a business,more lucrative than white-collar jobs and is growing imported strawberry crop since 1995 at GG Farms, Mangarh, Punjab.Uvie’s Strawberries are sweet-juicy and its quality control and hygiene during post harvest handling is ensured

  

Farming might turn out to be a profitable business in future for those kisan too who have small landholdings and sell their farm produce in domestic local mandis,but at present it is not so. Marketing and delays in payments make farming a non-viable agribusiness.

Sh.Gurwinder Singh Sohi owns RTS flowers in Nanowal Khurd,Fatehgarh Sahib,Punjab.He is an example of present generation agro tycoons in Punjab.Some first-generation entrepreneurs have also emerged as global leaders in agri-business. When we take a look back,we find Sh.Avtar Singh Dhindsa from Sangrur,Punjab exports flower seeds to a number of countries

   
farmers are emerging as agro tycoons in other regions as well.

When imported agricultural produce flood domestic markets it leads to price crash.Farmers who have cultivated those crops locally are the biggest losers then.

Price fluctuations is a big challenge for vegetable growers.

When Punjab's farmers' found wheat and paddy more lucrative, this agro tycoon Sh.Jang Bahadur Singh Sangha scaled up potato farming by changing traditional seed potato production by isolating disease-free clones of potato varieties and became India’s single-largest seed potato grower.

Minimum Support/Procurement Price is Recommended by CACP and Fixed by Government. Otherwise, scenario is much different for an average farmer.   

Vegetable crops are risk-prone but more lucrative farming.Cloud computing is the delivery of on-demand computing resources—everything from applications to data centers—over the internet on a pay-for-use basis(Info Source:IBM Cloud website). cloud computing services fall into three broad categories: infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS) and software as a service (Saas).Cloud computing is the delivery of computing services—servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics and more—over the Internet (the cloud). Companies offering these computing services are called cloud providers and typically charge for cloud computing services based on usage (Info Source:Microsoft Azure website). 

wikipedia lets us know that cluster of servers in a network diagram,in the old programs that drew network schematics surrounded the icons for servers with a circle, had several overlapping circles, which resembled a cloud. Cloud computing is the practice of using a network of remote servers hosted on the Internet to store, manage, and process data.Otherwise, data is stored, managed and processed on a local server or a personal computer
