WHY SUMMER PULSES Ø Ensuring/sustain self-sufficiency in Pulses. Ø Maintaining soil health/production sustainability. Ø Increasing resource use efficiency. Ø True alternative for green manuring. Ø Exploiting non-traditional niches (Spring/Summer/ rice-fallow). Ø Increasing cropping Intensity. Ø Helping to double the farmers’ income.

Why Decline in Nutri-Cereals Area? Demand side factor: • Rapid urbanization • Changing consumer tastes and preferences due to rising per capita income • Government policies favoring other crops such as output price incentives and input subsidies • Supply of PDS rice and wheat at cheaper price introduced in non-traditional areas of fine cereals. • Poor social status and inconvenience in their preparation (especially sorghum) • Low shelf-life of grain and flour. Supply side factors: • Increasing marginalized cultivation. • Low profitability, low remuneration for Nutri-Cereals vis-à-vis competing crops. • More remunerative crop alternatives in kharif competing with millets in question. • Decline in production & quality -blackening of sorghum grains, fetching low price. • Lack of incentives for millet production and irrigation infrastructure.

Constraints for low productivity • Cultivation : rainfed conditions on marginal lands. • Infestation of shoot fly at early stage and grain mould disease affect the production and quality. • Limited adoption of improved production-protection technologies. • Shortage of seed of HYVs and hybrids particularly under small millets. • Deficiencies in the production and distribution system of quality seeds. • Small farm holdings and limited resource availability with farmers.

Suggestive Strategy: Issue based v Effective MIS network for critical irrigation at reproductive phase. v Opening canals to establish/exploit potential area to combat consecutive drought. v Community farming/fencing under convergence with CSR/DMF, MGNREGAs etc. , to protect/ward off wild animal menace. v To ensure the availability of quality seed/recommended varieties, enter into Mo. U with NFSM seed-hubs /NFSM-EBSM centers. v ICAR-IIMR/AICRPs-(Pearl millet, small millet), SAUs to concentrate on breeding of location specific varieties to address limited varietal summer millets cafeteria. v Ensure supply of electricity for irrigation.
