4. Our observation & constraints in SRI Up scaling .
• SRI require skill on Nursery raising, Land preparation,
transplantation, water management, Social mobilization &
demonstration our tribal lack the skill & knowledge.
• Limited linkages with government main stream programme
• Lack of farmers incentives in the program me , reduced
effectiveness in SRI up scaling .
• Farmer perceive SRI require more lab ours.
• Timely careful transplantation more then family labour .
• Non availability of sufficient organic manure.
• Government supply weeder is difficulty for women.
• SRI require water management , flooded water and dray
spell affect production.

5. • CSOs learning and sharing alliance building.
• Quality demonstration.
• Community mobilization on SRI through Audio visual aid & flax
pictures.
• Selection of master trainers /Village resource person for
promotion of SRI.
• Interface workshop of farmers & CSOs with govt. Officers/POL.
• Convergence with govt. main stream programme.
• Instructional arrangement for up scaling and sustainability.

9. Overall proposal for SRI up scaling in
the districts
Support for 3 years as farmer incentives(govt)
Each GP will be as unit for SRI Promotion
Implementing system will be fruitful by the NGO/GO
through schemes like ATMA, state
plan, RKVY, NFSM, MGNREGA, tribal sub plan & KBK
Fund support.
Intensive capacity and skill building of CRP & Staffs'
Promotion of large scale Organic manure through
mainstream government programme.
Create institutional mechanism at community as well as
