The Chhattisgarh government is encouraging farmers to adopt the DSR method for paddy cultivation. This initiative aims to improve farming practices in the state.
The Chhattisgarh government has been promoting the Direct Seeded Rice (DSR) method for paddy cultivation among farmers. This method involves directly sowing rice seeds into the field, eliminating the need for nurseries and transplantation. The government believes that this method can help reduce labor costs and improve crop yields. By adopting the DSR method, farmers can also reduce their water consumption and minimize soil disturbance.
