Activity-4: Enhancing water and nutrient use efficiency through crop diversification and drip fertigation for climate change adaptation
- Water saving : (18 to25% - 100% ETc, 34 to 42% - 80%
ETc, 49 to 56% - 60% ETc over surface irrigation)
- Yield enhancement: (32-76% : 100% ETc, 27-64% : 80%
ETc, 9-29% : 60% ETc over surface irrigation)
- Fertilizer saving through fertigation: 40-50% without affecting yield (Agronomic Nitrogen use efficiency : 46-52%)
