In a move aimed at doubling the income of small and marginal farmers of Madhya Pradesh, the Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwavidyalaya (JNKVV) Jabalpur has developed an inter-cropping technique which it has named 'Jawahar Model', a senior varsity official said on Tuesday.
The model, which has been displayed at the varsity's farm, comprises an inter-cropping technique that shows crop growth and ways to double farm incomes, JNKVV Vice Chancellor Dr PK Bisen told PTI on Tuesday.
He said farmers can opt for inter-crops cultivation after studying the market demand.
JNKVV principal scientist Dr Moni Thomas said, "MP is home to 65 per cent small and marginal farmers, which can work wonders for the Jawahar Model."
