District :- Bidar

Geography

The entire district forms a part of the Deccan Plateau and is made up mostly

of solidified lava. The northern part of the district is characterized by expanses of level and treeless surface punctuated here and there by flat and

undulating hillocks, black soils and basaltic rocks. The southern half of the district is a high plateau about 715 m above mean sea level and are well

drained. The average elevation of the district is between 580 to 610 m

above mean sea level. Alluvial deposit is normally found along the banks of the Manjra river and its main tributaries.The district is entirely covered by

the Deccan trap flows of the tertiary period. The Deccan trap is composed of horizontal flows of basaltic lava. They generally form flat-topped hillocks and

terrace-like features.

18

Soils

Two types of soils found in the district are Lateritic red soil and black cotton

soil. Aurad and Bhalki taluks have mainly black cotton soil. Bidar and Humnabad taluks have mainly lateritic red soil. Basavakalyan taluk has both

types of soils.

Climate

The climate of this district is characterized by general dryness throughout the year, except during the southwest monsoon. The summer season is from

the middle of February to the first week of June. This is followed by southwest monsoon season, which continues till the end of September. The

months of October and November constitute the post-monsoon or retreating

monsoon season.

The winter season is from December to middle of February and the temperature begins to decrease from the end of November, December is the

coldest month with mean daily maximum temperature of 27.30 C and mean daily minimum of 16.40 C. From the middle of the February, both day and

night temperatures begin to rise rapidly. May is the hottest month with mean daily maximum temperature of 38.80 C and mean daily minimum of

25.90 C. With the withdrawal of southwest monsoon in the first week of October, there is slight increase in day temperature but night temperature

decreases steadily. After October, both day and night temperatures

decreases progressively. The highest maximum temperature recorded at Bidar was on 8-5-1931(43.30 C) and the lowest was on 5-1-1901(3.90 C).

Proceedings of the Wrap-up meeting of Joint Inspection Team (JIT)

held on 06.08.2011 in the office of the Mission Director and Director of

Horticulture, Lalbagh, Bangalore (Karnataka).

Members present:

1. Mission Director and Director of Horticulture, Bangalore (Karnataka)

2. Dr.H.V.L.Bathla, Chief Consultant, NHM,GOI.

3. Director, Directorate of Arecanut and Spices Development, Calicut.

4. Director, Directorate of Cashew and Cocoa Development, Cochi.

5. Dr.R.Krishna Manohar, Principal Investigator (PFDC), UAS, Bangalore.

6. Dr.R.Jayaprakash, Executive Director, KSHMA, Lalbagh, Bangalore.

At the outset, the Mission Director welcomed the JIT members.The Joint Inspection

Team under the leadership of Dr.H.V.L.Bathla, Chief Consultant, NHM, GOI visited

Bidar, Gulbarga, Bagalkot, Bijapur and Dharwad districts of Karnataka State from 1st to

5th of August 2011. During the wrap-up meeting held on 6th August 2011 with the

Mission Director and Director of Horticulture, Lalbagh, Bangalore and after detailed

interaction, the points enunciated in the meeting are as follows.

1. The opinion of the JIT is that the overall implementation of the scheme in the

State is satisfactory. However, the cluster approach is followed in some places

and it has to be strengthened.

2. They were of the opinion that in some places even though NHM sign board is

there, NHM logo is missing. Display of NHM logo should be ensured in all the

cases where NHM assistance is given.

3. While giving assistance to pack houses, its effective usage for the said purpose

should be ensured.

4. The ripening chambers assisted under NHM should be farmer friendly. SHM

should evolve a mechanism to fix the price for the produce to be placed for

ripening by the farmers in these ripening chambers.

5. The on-line trading mechanism developed at the Bijapur APMC market is very

effective and it should be followed in the Gulbarga APMC market also. The

markets assisted under NHM should start functioning soon.

6. While there is good scope for rejuvenation in Dharwad district, the

recommended rejuvenation technique given by the Department of Horticulture to

all the DHO’s is not being followed. This should be ensured that recommended

rejuvenation technique is used.

7. The JIT while appreciating the usage of bio-digesters, opined that there is a

need to promote this in other States also. They requested to send a note on the

usage, methodology and qualitative and quantitative aspects of bio-digesters, so

that this can be promoted in other States.

68

8. On the whole, implementation of community water storage structures is good and

they are well maintained in Bijapur district.

9. The medicinal properties of Kamalapur banana should be ascertained by testing

it before promoting it for its medicinal properties.

10. The Department should impart more technical guidance to the farmers.

Mission Director and Director of Horticulture while discussing the issue of availability

of good planting material, said that in case of Cocoa the only accredited nursery

available in the State is at CPCRI, Vittla, Dakshina Kannada. Since, all the cocoa

growers cannot afford to purchase the planting material from Dakshina Kannada, the

nurseries in Shimoga are making the plants available to the growers after producing the

plants from the pods procured from CPCRI, Vittla. The Mission Director requested

Director, DCCD to arrange to inspect these nurseries for their genuinity.

Recommendations:-

1. In area expansion programme for different horticulture crops, there is a need to

follow cluster approach.

2. Signboard with NHM logo need to be displayed, wherever, financial support has

been given.

3. The financial support for Bio-digester is being given only in the State of

Karnataka. These need to be evaluated for nutrient availability as well as its

beneficial effects on controlling pests and diseases.

4. In view of the huge financial support of NHM for establishing APMC markets in

different districts, efforts are needed to start functioning of the markets without

undue delay and the interest of the farmers need to be safeguarded.

5. The information pertaining to the farmers , samples analyzed, diagnosis made

and remedial measures suggested by the Plant Health Clinics along with the

feedback of the farmers, thereafter, need to be documented.

6. The State Horticulture Mission must ensure that activity for which financial

support under NHM has been provided has started functioning before releasing

the final installment.

7. The scientific techniques recommended and already tested for rejuvenation of

Mango Orchards need to be followed.

8. More training / exposure visit need to be arranged for transfer of technology.
