Verification of a Rational Combination Approach for Agricultural Drought Assessment: A Case Study Over Indo-Gangetic Plains in India
Agricultural Drought is characterized by a deficient supply of moisture, resulting either from sub-normal rainfall, erratic rainfall distribution, or higher water with respect to a crop. In spite of technological developments in providing improved crop varieties and better management practices, in India, agriculture has been considered a gamble due to higher spatial and temporal variability. Th...
متن کاملEvaluation of long-term conservation agriculture and crop intensification in rice-wheat rotation of Indo-Gangetic Plains of South Asia: Carbon dynamics and productivity
In the context of deteriorating soil health, stagnation of yield in rice-wheat cropping system (RWCS) across Indo- Gangetic plains (IGP) and environmental pollution, a long term field experiment was conducted during 2009-2016 taking four crop scenarios with conservation agriculture (CA), crop intensification and diversified cropping as intervening technology aiming to evaluate the sustainabilit...
متن کاملBackground Paper: Icts for Agricultural Development. an Exercise in Interdisciplinarity
This paper focuses on a concrete, non-mainstream example of bringing ICTs to rural agricultural areas. In elaborating on this example of ‘ICT for Development’ (ICT4D), it tries to provide insights into the integration of the natural sciences, the technical communication sciences and the social sciences in a project called: Open Source Simple Computer for Agriculture in Rural Areas (OSCAR). The ...
