We are thrilled to share the latest updates from the #Urvarasa Model Farm in Pisarve (Saswad, Maharashtra). It’s truly rewarding to see the steady progress of our crops as we continue our experiments in the field. The results so far have been fascinating! The untilled land has worked entirely to our advantage, already containing the necessary nutrients for seed germination. As a result, we didn’t need to add any extra nutrients when preparing the land for sowing! We are confident that this project will have a transformative impact on farming in India. We’re eagerly looking forward to collecting data and observations from the farm, as well as conducting surveys in the surrounding community. This will help us develop solutions grounded in local realities, rather than simply reacting to global discussions on unsustainable and exploitative farming practices. India, with the world’s largest cattle population and only 2.4% of the planet’s landmass, faces unique challenges. This makes it even more crucial for us to tackle these issues head-on. Through the #Urvarasa initiative, we are committed to proving that a plant-based farming model can thrive, ensuring that farms remain productive and secure—even in the absence of livestock. https://lnkd.in/dZTw55SJ

#Integrated #Farming #System For #Food and $Nutritional $Security in #India- Dr P.C.Patel Integrated Farming Systems (IFS) represent a comprehensive approach to agriculture designed to address various demands, including bolstering farm resilience, improving farmer livelihoods, enhancing food security, providing ecosystem services, and fostering adaptability and resilience in farming practices. These systems are characterized by the temporal and spatial mixing of #crops, $livestock, #fishery, and #allied activities within a #single #farm. #Important points of #IFS in #India: 1. #Holistic Approach: IFS entails a holistic approach to farming, aiming to meet multiple objectives simultaneously. These include not only food production but also farm resilience, livelihood improvement, and ecosystem services. 2. #Productivity and #Profitability: Literature reviews indicate that IFS has the potential to significantly improve farm profitability (up to 265%) and employment (up to 143%) compared to single enterprise farms. By integrating various components, IFS creates synergies that enhance overall productivity. 3. #Nutrient #Recycling: IFS enhances nutrient recycling through practices such as composting, mulching, and residue incorporation. This reduces the need for external input purchases and improves soil quality indicators like nutrient availability and microbial activity. 4. #Biodiversity Conservation: Diversified cropping systems and integration of indigenous livestock breeds play a crucial role in biodiversity conservation within IFS. 5. #Soil #Organic #Carbon: IFS contributes to improving soil organic carbon levels, which is essential for soil health and long-term sustainability. 6. #Climate #Resilience: By making farms adaptive and resilient, IFS contributes to climate resilience in agriculture.
