VINODAKUMAR Department of Agronomy, University of Agricultural Sciences, RAICHUR (KARNATAKA) INDIA ABSTRACT : Investigations were carried out in Main Agricultural Research Station (MARS), Raichur district of Karnataka during 2012-14 to find out a sustainable mixed farming model which is economically viable by integrating the different components like crops, livestock, poultry, rabbits and fish on a 2.5 acre land holding. Seven integrated farming system models were developed to find out the best package on the land holding of 2.5 acre suitable for the NorthEast Karnataka region. Among various IFS models, F 7 model registered highest net returns (Rs. 1,89,069 ha/year) and least observed in conventional cotton alone (F 1 ) system (Rs. 74,592 ha/year). The similar trend was observed in return per day, diversity index and employment generation (Rs. 518/day, 2.92 and 206 mandays/ha/year). |
