Name of the farmer : Gopal Patidar Total Area : 3.0 ha Village & Post : Rakoda Block : Piploda District : Ratlam (M.P.) Background information: At present Ratlam districts area - 3610 ha, production – 59638 tonne, productivity – 165.20 qtl. This is due to crop diversification initiated by Gopal Patidar who introduce onion in village Rakoda (2006-07) with 1.0 ha. The increase in production and productivity is achieved by KVK interventions. Today village Rakoda is having 150 ha area and famous for ONION GROWERS. In the season per day 3 to 4 trucks are being loaded and Marketed (75/80) within and out side state (Mumbai, Delhi, Jalandhar, Udaipur and Ahmedbad).The farmers are getting good remuration and higher income.

DESCRIPTION OF THE TECHNOLOGY:
Recommended :
• Improved variety- Agrifound Light Red
• INM : 5 t FYM + 250 Kg Gypsum+ NPKS 120:60:60:20
• IPM: Blue sticky traps+ Imidachloprid @125 ml+ Metalexyl-
Mancojeb @ 1Kg
• Grading, Packing and Storage.
Farmer Practice :
• Use of local variety
• Imbalance use of fertilizers
• Non judicious use of plant protection measures
KVK, Ratlam (M.P.)
• Personal discussion• On/ Off Campus Training • OFT/ FLD• Field Day• Scientist visit to farmers’ field• Exposure visit (Nasik)• Linkage with Horticulture Department• Onion interface
INSTITUTES INVOLVED:• Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Ratlam (OFT / FLD)• Agriculture College, Indore and Mandsaur (For Gypsum Trial)• NHRDF, Indore (For Variety) • State Horticulture Department Ratlam
