Rice, wheat and black gram were sown in April (first kharif), October (first rabi) and June (second kharif), respectively. Sowing was done after ploughing and land preparation activities. Seed input @ 30 kg/ha was decided on the basis of prior discussions with farmers practicing traditional cropping for decades. Density of plants was maintained by thinning the plants from the crowded places after 15 days of seed germination. Care was taken to uproot thin and weak plants during the thinning operation.
