For this to happen, both fish production, productivity and quality fish seed production in the state has to significantly improve. Over last 5 years, freshwater fish production has increased by a CAGR of 14% to reach a production of 5.74 lakh tons in 2020-21. This kind of growth has been achieved due to increase in farm area and crop intensification promoted by the Government and due to the strong involvement and contributions of farmers and entrepreneurs. The major challenge to maintain a high growth momentum is shortage of quality fish seed (spawn, fry and fingerling) in the state. As per the Odisha Master Plan for Fish Seed Production, the fish seed demand in 2024-25 will be around 1,282 Cr spawn, 385 Cr fry and 192 Cr fingerlings. When compared to the present capacity (the baseline year 2018-19), there will be an annual shortage of 894 Cr spawn, 295 Cr fry and 109 Cr fingerling in 2024-25. Accordingly, there is a need to systematically ramp up its hatchery, nursery and seed production infrastructure both in the private and public sector on a war footing basis to meet an additional annual demand of 894 Cr spawn, 295 Cr fry and 179 Cr fingerling by 2024-25. Need for establishment of block-level network of private fingerling growers: Fisheries & ARD Department has already taken actions to increase the hatchery fish spawn production from Government and private hatcheries in the state through various programs and schemes. Four mega Government hatcheries at Kausalyaganga, Bhanjanagar, Saramanga and Chipilima and 37 Government fish seed farms are under upgradation. Further, 65 nos. of private fish hatcheries have enrolled for scheme for increased spawn production through early breeding technology. In addition to upgradation of existing Government and private hatcheries, 30 new fish hatcheries are under construction across the state under various schemes. These Government and private hatcheries will have capacity of 200 crore spawn and 900 crore spawn, respectively, by 2022-23, especially through early breeding technology. A sizable quantity of the spawn produced in these Government and private hatcheries will be during the early breeding season spanning from March to June. Hence, in order to timely utilize the early bred spawn produced from the hatcheries, it is important to establish network of seed growers, spread across various blocks and near fish farming clusters. These private seed growers should have perennial fish ponds during the early breeding season from March to June. This will enable availability of quality fish fingerlings to fish farmers during start of the monsoon season. Accordingly, fish farmers and entrepreneurs having perennial ponds will be encouraged to undertake fish fingerling production by procuring fish spawn/ fry and rearing it to fingerling size, during the period March to June. Interested farmers will be trained on the production of normal and genetically improved varieties of advanced IMC fingerlings (Jayanti Rohu, Improved Catla, Amur Common Carp etc) using BMPs (Better Management Practices). Backward and forward linkages along the value chain will be provided to the fingerling rearing farmers for sourcing quality spawn/fry from hatcheries and selling of fingerling to grow-out farmers. The seed rearing farmers shall buy quality carp spawn from Government/OPDC/ private fish seed hatcheries accredited and certified by Directorate of Fisheries and grow them to fry and advanced fingerling size (>100 mm) in 3-4 months of seed rearing cycle.

Probiotics can regulate genes responsible for the tight junctions between epithelial cells within the GIT. Probiotics also increase the amount of mucous secretion in the GIT.Many probiotics can produce antimicrobial peptides that target pathogenic organisms. The impact probiotics have on the immune system is very intriguing. Some strains of probiotics can stimulate the innate immune response so host cells recognize pathogens more quickly. This helps reduce the amount of tissue damage, including inflammation. Probiotics have the ability to modulate the balance and activities of the gastrointestinal (GI) microbiota, and thus, considered beneficial to the host animal and have been used as functional foods. factors, such as dietary and management constraints, have been shown to markedly affect the structure and activities of gut microbial communities in livestock animals.

As a result, outside food has to be given less. Therefore, as ponds are cleaned duck meat and eggs are obtained at a very low cost due to increase in duck population. An acre of pond provides more animal nutrients as well as fish, meat and eggs at a relatively low cost. A duck excretes 125 to 150 grams per day. 200 to 300 ducks are reared per hectare. An average of 10,000 to 15,000 kg of manure is added to the pond every year from that rearing, which meets the pond's organic fertilizer needs. As much of the unusable waste from the feed as possible and the half-digested food in the faeces are used as fish food to increase the fertility of the pond. In one acre of pond from fish and duck farming, 1200 to 1600 kg of fish, 600 to 700 eggs and 200 to 250 kg of meat are obtained.

Bio-flocs are micro-balls of unused feed and excreta of fish/ shrimp along with bacteria and other microbes in water as a suspension in the tank, with continuous churning of the water by aeration. Useful microbes (Bacteria), which is called as probiotic is added to tank water so that these microbes settle on Bio-floc surface and start digesting the nitrogenous waste from the organic particles in the presence of carbon source and oxygen. Bio-floc plays an important role in recycling the nutrients and maintaining the water quality in the culture tanks. The consumption of Bio-floc by shrimp and fish has demonstrated numerous benefits such as improvements in growth rate and feed conversion efficiency (FCR) thus reducing the cost of production and increasing the profit margins to the farmers. Growth enhancement has been attributed to both bacterial and algal nutritional components, which up to 30% conventional feeding ration can be lowered due to bio-floc consumption by shrimp. Further, the consumption of bio-flocs can increase the nitrogen retention from added feed by 7-13%. In this context, bio-floc technology has driven opportunities to use alternative diets. Benefits of Bio-Floc Technology: It is an eco-friendly system, which reduces negative environmental impact due to organic waste recycling. It improves water and land use efficiency. It can be taken up in urban and peri-urban areas. It is a limited or zero water exchange system. Therefore, it prevents water pollution and risk of spreading pathogens outside the system. It supports higher fish/shrimp productivity with reduced feed utilisation thus increasing the profit margin to farmers.Objectives of the Scheme:To promote high-yielding intensive fish farming in small area using Bio-floc technology. To encourage farmers, entrepreneurs and unemployed youth in to income generation through small-scale Bio-floc farming system.Steps to set-up Bio-floc fish/ shrimp farming system:Identification of suitable site and setting up of tanks.

Apart from providing meat, it is also a source of manure. Pig farming will provide employment opportunities to seasonally employed rural farmers and supplementary income to improve their living standards.In recent years, there is increased awareness towards white pig rearing in our state. As the demand for pork is increasing and the marketing is from farm gate with pre-payment and easy transportation, there is scope for small-scale pig farming in our State. There are around 20 pig commercial farms spread across the state with individual capacity ranging from 100 to 1000. All these are in form of commercial white piggery unit with stocking of improved White Yorkshire breed.As the major feed ingredients for pig are by-products of rice processing units, our state has an advantage with regard to availability of raw material for formulation of feed. Rice bran, rice polish, waste from chuda processing units, cashew processing units are utilised locally to make low cost feed for pigs. Due to existence of Government Pig Breeding Farm, Chipilima and other private piggery units in our state availability of good quality piglet is an added advantage.Hence, it is proposed to introduce a new scheme \\'Semi-commercial pig farming\\' under State plan Scheme with an budget outlay of Rs. 136.00 lakh for the year 2021-22 to support 85 farmers.'", "'answer: The AFOs at Block level shall select feasible areas/sites and the technical know-how would be extended by technical officers of fisheries Department/ ICAR Research Institute/ WorldFish Project Odisha.

For this to happen, both farm productivity and production of fish and quality fish seed production in the state has to significantly improve on war footing basis. Over last 5 years, freshwater fish production has increased by a CAGR of 14% to reach a production of 5.06 lakh tons in 2018-19. However, the major bottleneck to maintain this growth momentum to achieve sustainable fish production in the state is severe shortage of quality seed in the state. At present, there is a shortage of quality seed in the state, especially the spawn and fry during summer season (March \u00e2\u0080\u0094 June) in order to make available the fingerlings to farmers during early monsoon season (July-September) and hence farmers are dependent on spurious fish seed imported from neighbouring states. This shortage is because the local fish hatcheries normally start the fish breeding upon on-set of the monsoon season (June) which ends up in production of fingerlings during October-November, whereas, the neighbouring states such as West Bengal and Andhra Pradesh start fish breeding in the pre-monsoon period (March) itself, leading the huge production and supply of spawn during summer. To address this specific issue in Odisha, it is planned to produce an additional 256.63 crore IMC spawn per year in all 65 private fish hatcheries of the state by adopting early breeding and year- round seed production technology. This activity will supplement 'Master Plan for Fish Seed Production in Odisha' prepared by the FARED Department. These private hatcheries will be mandatorily brought under Fish Hatchery Accreditation and Seed Certification program of the government to ensure quality seed production and supply to farmers in the state. Private hatcheries, who are interested, will be provided with genetically improved strains of NC breeder fingerlings from the National Freshwater Fish Brood Bank (NFFBB) of National Fisheries Development Board (NFDB), Kausalyaganga to improve the quality of the fish seed across the state. Introduction of genetically improved strains of IMC such as Jayanti Rohu, Improved Catla, Amur Common Carp in all private hatcheries by sourcing the breeder seeds from NFFBB could ensure superior performance of fish seeds and thus better farm productivity and production in the state. These fish hatchery operators will be financially supported for the captive raising of quality broodstock using genetically improved strains of IMC procured from NFFBB with eligible subsidy on the broodstock production cost over 2 years. Also, the hatchery operators will be trained and hand-holded for implementation of early breeding and year-round seed production technology. The hatchery operators will be linked to the block-level network of certified fish seed growers for the timely sale of spawn and fry at reasonable profits.'", "'answer: The scheme shall be advertised through the Departmental website, newspapers and wall posters in the District and Block Fisheries Offices across the state.

Soil Analysis: Key to a Successful Nutrient Management Plan Higher crop yields and quality of the crops depend largely on the ef- ficient supply of nutrients. Soil provides not only the medium but also functions as the source of these nutrients for the plants. Soil resources get depleted with every harvest and need to be replenished for every crop. However, one must know which nutrients are to what extent deplet-ed and what addition of fertilizers should be planned accordingly. Soil analysis, in this regard, helps in determining the level of nutrients and in deciding the required amount of fertilizer application. Accuracy of soil analysis is directly relat- ed to the quality of the soil sample taken. Application of appropriate fertilizers with the proper nutrient mix will help not only to increase the productivity and farm in-come but also provide a more realistic chance to obtain the desired yield.

Research and Extension systems play major role in generation and dissemination of Agricultural technologies aiming at enhancing the income of farmers. The extension system adopts series of extension methods such as Training, demonstration, exposure visit to transfer the technologies from lab to land.

INTRODUCTION TO ORGANIC AGRICULTURE Organic agriculture is an integrated production management system which promotes and enhances agro -ecosystem health, including biodiversity, biological cycles and soil biological activity (FAO/WHO Codex Alimentarius Commission, 2007). It emphasizes the use of natural inputs (i.e. mineral and products derived from plants) and the renunciation of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. Organic agriculture follows the principles and logic of a living organism, in which all elements (soil, plant, farm animals, insects, the farmer and local conditions) are closely linked to each other. This is accomplished by using, where possible, agronomic, biological and mechanical methods, following the principles of these interactions, using natural ecosystem as a model (Figure 1).

There are many possibilities of storin g rainwater for irrigation, but most of them are labouring intensive or costly. Storing water in ponds has the advantage that fish may be grown, but water is likely to be lost through infiltration and evaporation. The construction of water tanks may avoid these losses, but needs appropriate construction materials. To decide whether or not to build water storage infrastructure, the benefits should be weighed against the costs, including the loss of arable land. The major factors that determine the necessity of irrigation are the selection of crops and an appropriate cropping system. Obviously, not all crops (and not even all varieties of the same crop) require the same amount of water, and not all need water over the same period of tim e. Some crops are very resistant to drought while others are highly susceptible. Deep rooting crops can extract water from deeper layers of soil and hence they are less s ensitive to temporary droughts.

The secondary infec-tion cycle can be repeated many times during the growing season. The number of cycles is dependent on the biology of the pathogen and its host and the duration of environmental conditions needed for infection. Over wintering or over seasoning is the ability of a pathogen to survive from one growing season to the next. Pathogens of apple survive the winter in a number of different ways. For a plant disease to occur, a susceptible host, a pathogen (casual agent), and favourable environ-mental conditions must be present and interact with one another. If any one of these requirements is not met, a plant disease will not occur. At pre-sent, our ability to manipulate the environment is limited to only a few practices such as pruning to promote drying, bedding to improve soil drainage, and scheduling of irrigation. Severe disease out-breaks can be prevented by manipulating the host - through the use of resistant cultivars - and the path-ogen -- through cultural practices and fungicidal or bactericidal sprays.II.'", "'The bunch becomes black and rotten.

The second step is to determine whether populations are high enough to threaten the crop. Root knot nematodes, the most common pathogenic nematodes in vegetables, can-not penetrate roots when soil temperatures are below 50 degrees F, and will not reproduce when soil temperatures are below 58 degrees F. Their re-productive rate is slower at cooler temperatures, so populations build up more slowly. Thus, cool sea-son crops are less likely to be damaged. E.g., early spring potatoes, are rarely damaged by nematodes. Nematode management practices Isolation: Once a nematode problem is confirmed, affected areas and plants should be isolated because transplants, machinery and irrigation water can all spread nematode infections. From initially small-infested areas, nematodes can spread across a field at a rate of 3 feet per year. Crop rotation and cover crops: Crops suscep- tible to root knot nematodes include all cole crop species, beans, cucumber, muskmelon, watermelon, bendi, potato, sweet potato and tomato. All pota-toes are susceptible to nematodes except for a few cultivars resistant to the golden nematode. 86 Plant Protection Farmer\u2019s Handbook on Basic Agriculture Rotation to non-host crops such as corn, cucurbits, potatoes and tomatoes is an effective control for the cyst nematode.

Damaging organisms such as stem borers may survive in the stalks of crops like cotton, corn or sugar cane. Plant material infected with viral or fungal diseases should not be used if there is a risk that the disease might spread to the next crop. Crop rotation is very important to overcome these risks. \uf0d8 When carb on rich materials such as straw or stalks are used for mulching, nitrogen from the soil may be used by microorganisms for decomposing the material.

As would seem natural, farmers should start by applying practices that are of low risk and investment, require little specific knowledge, limited additional labour, and with high short term impact. Examples of rec ommended in terventions include (Figure 3 -3): \uf0d8 Mulching - Covering the soil with dead plant material is an easy way to control weeds and protect the soil in annual crops. This practice can be implemented into most existing cropping systems. The main question may be, ho wever, where to get appropriate plant material from. \uf0d8 Intercropping - Growing two annual crops together, commonly a leguminous crop like beans or a green manure crop in alternating rows with maize or another cereal crop or vegetable is a common practice in organic farming to diversify production and maximize benefits from the land. In intercropping, special attention must be paid to avoid competition between the crops for light, nutrients and water. This requires knowledge on arrangements, which promote grow th of at least one of the crops. \uf0d8 Composting - Application of compost to the fields can have a major impact on crop growth and yields. To start compost production, farmers will need enough plant materials and animal manures, if such are available. In case s uch materials are scarce, farmers would first have to start producing plant 22 materials on the farm by sowing fast growing leguminous plants that build a lot of biomass, and by introducing some livestock on the farm for manure production, if this proves appr opriate.

Genetically modified products should, therefore, not be used in organic farming, and organic farmers should protect their production against any GMO contamination (Figure 3 -6). However, with the increased use of GM crops in the conventional farming systems, the risk of GMO contamination is expected to increase. Species which cross -pollinate, such as rapeseed or maize, or insect pollinated crops, such as soybean or cotton, are at a higher risk of being contaminated by a nearby genetically modified crop. Species that are mainly vegetative pollinated such as potatoes, cassava or banana are at lower risk of GMO contamination.

However, this practice requires additional management to keep competition between intercropped species in balance. When two or more crops are growing together, each must have adequate space to maximize cooperation and minimize competition between them. To accomplish this, four things need to be considered: 1) Spatial arrangement, 2) Plant density, 3) Maturity dates of the crops being grown, 4) Plant architecture. There a re at least four basic spatial arrangements used in intercropping. Most practical s ystems are variations of these: \uf0b7 Row intercropping \u2014growing two or more crops at the same time with at least one crop planted in rows. This can be beneficial in situations whe n using tall crops to reduce drought or heat stress of shorter crops, by providing shade and reducing wind speed. (Figure 6 -3).

O r the cultivation of sensitive crops can be shifted into areas with less pest or disease pressure. There are irrigation systems of higher or lower efficiency and with more or less negative impact. If irrigation is necessary, organic farmers should carefull y select a system, which is does not overexploit the water source, does not harm the soil and has no negative impact on plant health. 38 One promising option are drip irrigation systems (Figure 5 -8). From a central tank, water is distributed through thin per forated pipes directly to the single crop plants. There is a continuous but very light flow of water, thus allowing sufficient time to infiltrate in the root zone of the crops. In this way, a minimum of water is lost and the soil is not negatively affected . FIGURE 5-8 - DRIP IRRIGATION The establishment of drip irrigation systems can be quite costly.

This is useful especially if the records also show past incidents of plant pests or diseases in each plot in the farm. For example, soil diseases and pes ts can build up during the life of a susceptible crop. If the same crop or a similar type belonging to the same family is grown in the same field, it will suffer from the accumulated pests and diseases from the previous crop(s) and may not grow well. This can be avoided if the soil is left fallow (not cropped) for a while, or a different crop is planted which is tolerant or resistant to the particular pest or disease. Better still is to plant a crop from a different family which will not share a same comple x of pests and diseases. This will result in decline of soil problems and the original crop can be grown successfully again. 48 FIGURE 6-9 - 2-YEAR ROTATION OF CER EALS , COWPEAS AND LEGUMES IN KENYA FIGURE 6-10 - 2-YEAR ROTATION OF MAI ZE, BEANS , SORGHUM AND LABLAB I N SWAZILAND FIGURE 6-11 - 2-YEAR ROTATION OF CER EALS AND COTTON IN CAMEROON 49 FIGURE 6-12 - 3-YEAR ROTATION OF CER EALS , COTTON AND GROUNDNUT IN NORTHERN CAMEROON BOSTID.'", "'(Figure 7 -1 & 7 -2).

Some bacteria produce enzymes that breakdown the cell walls of plants anywhere in the plant. This causes parts of the plant to start rotting (known as \u2018rot\u2019).

Others produce large amounts of very sticky sugars; as they travel through the plant, they block the narrow channels preventing water getting from the plant roots up to the shoots and leaves, again causing rapid death of the plant. Finally, other bacteria produce proteins that mimic plant hormones.

Certain crop varieties have more effective mechanisms than others due to the adaptive nature to the environment and therefore have a lower infection risk. The health condition of a plant depends to a large exten t on the f ertility of the soil. When nutrition and pH is well balanced, the plant becomes stronger and is therefore less vulnerable to infection. Climatic conditions, such as suitable temperatures and sufficient water supply, are further factors which are crucial fo r a healthy plant. If one of these conditions is not suitable, the plant can become stressed. Stress weakens the defence mechanisms of plants and makes them easy targets for pests and diseases.

This practice describes the principles of plant propagation in organic farming, as well as the importance of the use of traditional varieties and their conservation. Ideally , all plant production should be based on organically -bred and organically -propagated varieties. Where the number of organically bred varieties are very limited or non -existent for certain crops, conventionally bred varieties are allowed, except for varieties de rived from genetic engineering (GMO crops, Figure 11 -1), which are not allowed in organic farming . However, the seeds of conventionally bred varieties should be propagated under certified organic systems.

T raining is needed in all aspects of propagation: maintenance breeding, avoidance of unwanted cross - pollination, seed and plant health, phytosanitary issues of vegetative propagation, cleaning and processing of seeds, short and long term storage , as well as marketing strategies. Seed production should be combined with on -farm variety testing in order to provide as much information for farmers as possible. First , the kind of propagation needs to be determined: either those based on generati ve propagation or sexual reproduction (seeds) such as lettuce, curly endive, pepper, eggplants, tomato, beans, etc. ; or those vegetative propagated (asexual reproduction) th rough another part of the plant: potato tubers, sweet potato roots, bulbs in onion and garlic, cuttings in artichoke, stolons in strawberry, \u201c spiders\u201d or roots in asparagus, etc.'", "'8.

There are many reasons for cultivating the soil. The most important ones are to (Figure 10 -1): \u2022 Loosen the soil to facilitate the penetration of plant roots \u2022 Improve the aeration (nitrogen and oxygen from the air) \u2022 Encourage the activity of the soil organisms \u2022 Increase infiltration of water \u2022 Reduce evaporation \u2022 Destroy or control weeds and soil pests \u2022 Incorporate crop residues and manures into the soil \u2022 Prepare the site for seeds and seedlings \u2022 Repair soil compaction caused by prev ious activities FIGURE 10-1 - FACTORS INFLUENCING S OIL FERTILITY Any soil cultivation activity has a more or less destructive impact on soil structure.

Instead of feeding commercial concentrates which make animals grow faster and pro duce more, a natural diet appropriate to the requirements of the animal should be achieved.'", "'While artificial insemination is allowed, embryo transfer, genetic manipulation, and hormonal synchro nisation are not permitted according to IFOAM standards. Over the last decades, traditional breeds have been replaced by high performing ones in many regions. Similar to high yieldi ng plant varieties, these new breeds usually depend on a rich diet (concentrates) and optimal living conditions.'", "'Where all these preventive measures are taken, animals will rarely fall sick. Veterinary treatment thus should play only a secondary role in organic farming. If tre atment is necessary, alternative medicine based on herbal and traditional remedies should be used. Only if these treatments fail or are not sufficient, synthetic medicines (e.g. antibiotics, parasiticides, anaesthetics) may be used; in these cases, the tre ated animals must be separated from non -treated organic stock and excluded for a period of time (e.g.'", "'Once the protective grass cover is destroyed, the top soil is prone to erosion. Degraded pastures or land with little plant cover is difficult to re -cultivate. Therefore, it is important that the use and intensity of grazing on a particular piece of land is appropriate to its production capacity. Sufficient time must be given to a pasture to re cover after intensive grazing. Fencing off of areas and rotation of the grazing animals on several pieces of land is the best option for managing the farm and the overall landscape. Creating \u201cgrazing cells\u201d restores overgrazed pastures, reduce the incidence of intestinal para sites encountered while the animals graze, and increase land productivity.'", "'Still, farmers should not forget to identify the cause of the disease and also to re -think their management practises. For parasite problems, changi ng the living conditions or the management of pastures will be more effective in t he long run than any treatment. Example: Using Sweet Flag against parasites (Figure 12 -10) One example to use an herbal remedy against parasites is sweet flag ( Acorus calamus ).'", "'TECA comprises two basic features: (a) A knowledge database of applied technologies and practices on various agricultural activities supplied by partner org anizations and initiatives; (b) Online forums \u2013 called Exchange Groups \u2013 where members can co nsult with a community of practitioners about a specific agricultural technology or practice, and at the same time share their experiences and challenges in the field with other members looking for support.
