Mangalore: The success of Bhoo Chetana in dry land cultivation has inspired the State Government to expand its reach to all the districts in the State and to include rain fed areas. Accordingly, in Dakshina Kannada district, the scheme will cover 5,100 hectare paddy field in the kharif season. Speaking to Deccan Herald, Agriculture department Joint Director Padmaiah Naik said the programme aims at increasing the production of paddy by 20 per cent. Farmers give only the required nutrients for the soil. However, micro nutrients are neglected and as a result, the yield is less. The scheme also encourages the use of organic manure.
