Opis

The major concerns of dryland farmers are: unpredictability of onset, duration and distribution of rainfall; unfavourable crop growth environment; limited choice of crop varieties; low fertility of soils; and short growing seasons. There is a need to to improve agriculture production in the dry farming tracts. Some improved techniques and practices recommended by experts include using resistant, tolerant, high-yielding and short-duration crop varieties; observing weather conditions closely and planning farming activities accordingly; and exercising substitution in favour of those crops which are efficient utilizers of moisture and more responsive to inputs. Dryland farming and modern concepts in crop production plays a key role in enhancing the total production by improving productivity resulting in food and nutritional security
