Start with the soil
Observe texture, drainage and the organic matter already present. Record what is grown and what returns to the soil.
Think in connected systems
Plan crops, water, livestock and natural habitats together. A change in one part of the farm affects the others.
Observe. Record. Adapt.
Start by noting your crop, season, soil conditions and available resources. Choose a manageable trial, keep records and review the results before scaling up.
Think locally
Conditions vary across India. Use this introduction to prepare questions for a local agricultural specialist or your nearest Krishi Vigyan Kendra.
