Production Potential, Economics, Energetics and GHG Emission Potentials of Paddy based Cropping System in a Micro-watershed under Damodar Catchment, West Bengal under Hot, Moist, Sub-Humid Agro-Ecological Zone
Abstract: AbstractThe Damodar catchment area in West Bengal is primarily dominated by rice-rice mono-cropping system. The present study was conducted in three villages through Naopara, Kantia and Syamsundarpur in the Barddhaman district of West Bengal; to explore the potentials of integrating other field crops in the existing rice based cropping system towards improving the monetary productivity and farmers’ livelihood. Field experiments were conducted taking different cropping systems through rice–rice, rice–potato–black gram, …

Production Potential and Economics of Different Crops under Varying Physiographic Conditions in Damodar Command Area (Part), West Bengal, India
Abstract: Rice-rice cropping system is the predominant cropping pattern in the majority of Damodar command area, West Bengal. However optimized utilization of resources towards enhanced overall crop productivity as well as economic return and at the same time maintenance soil quality, crop diversity is important. Present study evaluates the on-field crop suitability and economic viability of vegetables (potato, chilli), oilseed (mustard, sesame) and pulses (black gram) towards formulation of alternate rice …
