The largely grown cereals in the district are jowar, bajri, wheat,
rice and maize and the minor cereals produced in the district are ragi, kodra, sava, banti and bhadli. Jowar occupies the first place with 23.61 per cent of the gross cropped area, bajri has 17.59 per cent, pulses 12.68 per cent, wheat 5.36 per cent, rice 4.10 per cent, and other cereals 5.45 per cent. All the food crops together make 70.8 per cent, against 69.88 per cent, for Maharashtra. Compared with the average crop pattern of the State, the district has lower proportions for rice, jowar and other food crops and slightly higher proportions for wheat and pulses. The district proportion for bajri is almost double that of the State average. Wheat is grown to a large extent in the valley of Tapi river which covers Taloda, Shahada and Nandurbar talukas. Rice and small millets cover large areas in the heavy rainfall and hilly areas in Akrani, Akkalkuwa, Nawapur and Sakri talukas. Bajri is grown mainly in southern talukas of Sindkheda, Sakri and Dhulia. The following table gives the area under various cereals in the district:-

Jowar.
Jowar is extensively grown in the district both in kharif and rahi seasons. Both kharif and rabi jowars are grown on heavy to medium black soils. Kharif jowar is taken between June and December and the rahi jowar is produced between September and February. The tillage in the ease of both the jowars consists of one ploughing, two to three harrowings, two hoeings and two to three interculturings and weedings. Both the methods, drilling as well as dibbling, are followed in the district. The seeds are drilled at the rate of about 4.536 to 5.443 kg. (10 to> 12 lbs) per acre and if the dibbling method is followed the seed rate comes to about 1.814 kg. (4 lbs.) for one acre. In the kharif season if the seeds are drilled, the distance between the two lines is 304.8 mm. (12") and that in the case of dibbling method it is 457.2 mm. X 609.6 mm. (18" X 24"). In the rabi season on the other hand, the distance between the two lines in both the methods of sowing viz., drilling and dibbling is 457.2 mm. (18") and 609.6 mm. X 609.6 mm. (24"X24") respectively. The rotational crops grown after kharif jowar are usually cotton, groundnut and wheat and those produced after rabi jowar include wheat and bajri. The basal dose of manuring per acre at the time of sowing consists of 5 to 10 cart loads of farm yard manure and top dressing of 50.802 kg. (112 lbs.) of superphosphate and 45.359 kg. (100 lbs.) of ammonium sulphate. The agriculture department of the State has recommended Maldandi 35-1 as an improved strain of rabi jowar for the district.
The kharif jowar is ready for harvest by December. The crop is usually cut with sickle. The earheads are cut on the same day and are carted to the threshing floor, where they are exposed to the sun for about 4 days. The stalks are tied into small bundles and when sufficiently dried, they are collected at a convenient place. The process of cutting the crop and its earheads is locally known as Lani. The earheads are then trampled under the feet of oxen in the threshing floor and the grains are separated by winnowing, taking advantage of a gentle breeze.
Bajri.
Bajri is mainly a kharif crop, being sown a little later and reaped a little earlier than jowar. It is usually grown on light to medium black soils. The field is prepared by ploughing and two to three harrowings. About two to three interculturings and weedings and two hoeings are also given. The crop is drilled at the rate of 2.722 to 4.082 kg. (6 to 9 lbs.) per acre at a distance of about 304.8 to 381.0 mm. (12 to 15 inches) between the two lines. After about 20 days the crop is thinned by keeping a distance of about 76.2 to 101.6 mm. (3 to 4 inches) between two plants. Bajri is rotated with jowar, udid and matki. Niphad 28/15 has been recommended by the department of agriculture as an improved strain of bajri for the district. The crop is ready for harvest by November when it is reaped, with sickle close to the ground and left lying in the field for three days, then bound into small bundles and stacked near about the threshing floor. After some days the earheads are removed and stacked on the floor. The threshing and winnowing are done in the same way as for jowar.
Wheat.
Wheat (gahu) is grown as a rabi crop between October and
March. If wheat is taken as a non-irrigated crop it is sown in heavy black and retentive soils and if it is produced entirely as an irrigated crop it is grown on medium or black soils. The field is ploughed in September and followed by three to four harrovvings for irrigated crops. About two interculturings and weedings are clone before the flowering stage. The crop is drilled in both the cases, irrigated as well as non-irrigated, at the rate of 18.144 to 22.680 kg. (40 to 50 lb.) and 17.237 to 18.144 kg. (38 to 40 lb.) per acre respectively. Cotton, jowar and gram are taken as rotational crops after wheat. About 10 to 15 cart loads of farm yard manure and top dressing of 34.019 kg. (75 lb.) of ammonium sulphate at the time of sowing the non-irrigated crop and 45.359 kg. superphosphate for irrigated crop are applied per acre. The crop (100 lb.) of ammonium sulphate and 50.802 kg. (112 lb.) of takes about six months to mature and is ready for harvest from the middle of February to the end of March. The plants are cut close to the ground, tied into small bundles and after sufficiently being dried in the sun are carried to the threshing floor where they are threshed by beating with long sticks. The department of agriculture of the State has recommended N. 59 and N. 125 for non-irrigated wheat and N. P. 718, N. 345 and N. 146 for irrigated wheat as the suitable improved strains of wheat for the district.
Rice.
Rice (bhat) is taken as a kharif crop in the district. It is usually grown on light to medium black soils. Its tillage consists of one ploughing, and two to three harrovvings or puddling before planting. About three weedings are also given. It is both drilled as well as transplanted. The seed rate per acre in the ease of drilling and transplanting is 5.443 kg. (12 lb.) and 18.144 kg. (40 lb.) respectively. About 10 to 15 cart loads of farm yard manure or compost are applied to one acre.
Maize.
Maize (maka) is grown as a kharif crop between June and September usually on medium black soils. One ploughing, two harrowings and two interculturings are sufficient for the healthy growth of the crop. Both drilling as well as dibbling methods are followed. The drilling and dibbling are done at a distance of 457.2 mm. (18") and 457.2 mm. X 457.2 mm. (18"Xl8") respectively. About 10 to 15 cart loads of farm yard manure and compost and a top dressing of 50.802 kg. (112 lb.) of superphosphate and 22.680 kg. (50 lb.) of ammonium sulphate are applied to one acre before sowing the crop. After one month, a top dressing of about 22.680 kg. (50 lb.) of the above mentioned fertilisers is applied to the crop. The cobs are cut off the standing stalks and
when sufficiently dry are beaten with sticks to separate the grain. The heads are usually eaten parched or boiled while green and ripe grains are also parched and made into lahis
and after grinding used as flour. Its green stalks provide an excellent fodder. |
