Rainwater management techniques for sucessful producation of pulses in rainfed aresa

Paramanik, S.C.
Being mainly rainfed crop, efficient rainwater harvesting and management is essential for successful production pf pulses. The main pulse growing tract of central and western India suffers from light and heavy soils undulating terrain and weather extremities. The various technologies like raised bed sunken bed, broad bed furrow, deep ploughing, leveling and bunding, and checkdams, farm ponds have been evaluated extensively in the farmers field and pound most effective. However, the adoption of water conservation technologies is very low in the farmers field mainly due to involvement of huge cost and machinery which discourage the small and marginal farmers to adopt these practices in small scale. Thus participatory management of rainwater technologies are necessary for wider adoption and successful production of pulses in the country.
