  1. National Kharif Conference on Agriculture 2012 Water management & Dry land farming 5 - 6 Mar., 2012 Maharashtra

  2. Extent of dry land /rainfed areas under different rainfall zones

  3. Rainfall pattern Out of 12 months only 4 rainy months in a year In 4 rainy months only 40 rainy days In 40 rainy days only 96 rainy hours i.e. in96 rainy hours means approximately 4 days in an year

  4. Drought Prone Areas of the State (Source –Planning Dept)

  5. Extent of Dry land area / Rainfed areas under different rainfall zone in Maharashtra State • Arid Zone - 1. 29 lakh ha. • ( 0.40 % to total area in India 317.09 lakh ha) • Semi Arid Zone – 189.58 lakh ha. • ( 19 % to total area in India 956.75 lakh ha) • first in India 6

  6. Dimensions of the problem of Dry Land agriculture • Rainfed Area- 82% • Drought Prone Area- 52% • Degraded Soils- 42% • Rainfall Pattern Characterized by 2-3 dry spells & high intensity rain • Areas of low rainfall ( below 750 mm) constitute more than 52 % of total geographical area . • About 25 districts in State fall in the category of low rainfall area. • Even after providing all the irrigation potential in State 70 % area remains as rainfed. 7

  7. Major Constraints of Dry land area / Rainfed areas • Climatic constraints • Variable rainfall – Annual rainfall varies greatly, More than • one third of total geographical area in State • receive rainfall less than 750 mm • Intensity and distribution - In general, more than 50 per • cent of total rainfall is usually received in 3 to 5 • rainy days • iii. Variations in monsoon behavior - Late onset of monsoon, • Early withdrawal of monsoon, • Prolonged dry spells • b) Soil Constraints • i. Inadequate soil moisture availability • ii. Poor organic matter content • iii. Poor soil fertility • iv. Soil deterioration due to erosion 8

  8. Cultivation practices • i. Ploughing along the slope • ii. Application FYM in limited quantity • iii. Heavy weed infestation • iv. Lack of suitable varieties • d. Socio-economic constraints • i. Less access to inputs • ii. Non availability of credit in time • iii. The risk bearing capacity of dry land farmer is very • low 9

  9. SOIL FERTILITY STATUS OF MAHARASHTRA STATE( 1981 to 2010 )

  10. Fertility status of major nutrients was declining up to 1995-2000. By adopting remedial measures, now it is increased & crossed fertility status of 1981-85.

  11. Available N is on the basis of percent Organic Carbon Content. Status - Available N is Moderate, Available Phosphorus is Low Available Potash is High in the soils of Maharashtra.

  12. There is no percent Intensity of deficiency for Copper & Manganese Micro Nutrient .

  13. Extent of land degraded and other problem areas

  14. Soil Erosion Status in Maharashtra State Major Dams 15

  15. Extent of land degradation & other problem areas 42.5 % area is suffering from different degree of soil degradation

  16. Extent of Soil Erosion Gully formation • Severe Erosion- 105 Lac Ha. • Soil loss : 373 Million ton/Yr * Nutrient Loss- 65% 17

  17. Status of ground water development & critical areas

  18. Stage of Ground Water Development & Categorization
