Breakthrough in improving farmers' income sustainably by
producing Kalanamak rice
Rice is one of the important cereals crop mainly grown in kharif season and
play very significant role in Indian food security ( ).
Kalanamak rice variety is an epitome of best aromatic rice cultivated and
consumed in Northeastern part of Uttar Pradesh ( ). To
the local palate, it was even classed superior to Indian mystery rice Basmati.
However, over centuries of cultivation and farmers' way of handling seed, neglect
by rice research institutions and double onslaught on economic front by High
Yielding Varieties (HYV), its area went down from 50,000 ha to less than 2,000 ha
during1990and2000 again reboundupto 35000ha during2018 ( ).

Kalanamak is heritage rice of eastern Uttar
Pradesh and valued for its aroma, taste and
nutritive quality. Four improved varieties,
KN3, Bauna Kalanamak 101, Bauna
Kalanamak 102 and Kalanamak Kiran were
released in 2010, 2016, 2017and 2018
respectively. Last three varieties yield 50%
more than traditional Kalanamak KN3 and
mature 10 days earlier. Normal selling price
of the Kalanamak paddy ranges between Rs.
2500/- to Rs. 3500/- per quintal. Organic
Kalanamak fetches 20% premium over
normal Kalanamak. Summarily compared
to Rs. 17,500 / ha net profit from common
HYV rice, Kalanamak KN3 will give Rs.
44,375, Bauna Kalanamak Rs. 71,500 and
Organic Kalanamak Rs. 92,500 per hectare

ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION
1
Reported grain "quality" deterioration and loss of aroma was discovered due to a
gamut of reasons starting from spontaneous mutation and out-crossing that
resulted into mixtures of aromatic and non-aromatic types, non-scientific seed
production and altered cultivation and processing practices. However, by
continued researches, funded by U. P. Council of Agricultural Research (UPCAR)
during 2001 to 2008, done at Participatory Rural Development Foundation (PRDF)
technologies was developed to save Kalanamak and hope to bring its old glory
back. Kalanamak variety of rice has been under cultivation since time immemorial.
Exact history of its cultivation is not recorded but it is believed that Kalanamak was
a preferred variety for offerings given to Lord Buddha some three thousand years
ago ( ).
Kalanamak has been in cultivation mainly in Northeastern part of Uttar Pradesh
and western and central part of Nepal Tarai. Over a period of a few thousand years
under cultivation and with no system of scientific seed production, there has been
rapid decline in its grain quality. Many voices were raised for its declining grain
quality and reducing area but nothing concrete was done to improve the situation
by any researchinstitution.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The material for the study comprised of four released and notified varieties of
Kalanamak namely Kalanamak KN3, Bauna Kalanamak 101 and Bauna
Kalanamak 102. Kalanamak KN3 was developed out of a large germplasm

collection of more than 150 accessions of Kalanamak collected
by PRDF. Bauna Kalanamak 101 and Bauna Kalanamak 102
were developed through hybridization of KN3 Swarna Sub1
and Improved Sambha Mahsuri respectively. Kalanamak
Kiran was also developed through hybridization of KN 3 and
Swarna Sub followed by pedigree selection. The Certified1
Seeds of these were provided to the farmers in Basti, Deoria,
Gorakhpur, Kushinagar, Mahrajganaj, Sant Kabir Nagar and
Siddharth Nagar districts. Each demo plots or experiments

Organic protocol for the production of Organic Kalanamak
rice was developed using various known inputs from organic
Kalanamak. Green Manure, Bhumishakti, Herbozyme, FYM,
Poultry dropping, Trichoderma, Pseudomonas and Neem-
based pesticides were used for raising the crop. Trial was laid
out in Randomised Complete Block Design at three locations
in Gorakhpur, Mahrajganj and Siddharth Nagar districts.
Grain quality analyses were performed at NDUAT Faizabad,
and Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, Hyderabad.
Cost benefit were calculated taking actual data from a number
offarmersusing survey methods.
RESULTSANDDISCUSSION
Initial researchto improve Kalanamak
Initial research on Kalanamak started with the collection of its
germplasm and mutation breeding ( ). Using
42 morpho-agronomic characters, accession was described
and catalogue was prepared and the entire collection was
deposited in the National Gene Bank at NBPGR New Delhi.
The mutants were mostly of academic nature (
) but few were tested in yield trials but none
were found superior to existing varieties (
).
Purification and releaseof first Kalanamak variety
PRDF in Gorakhpur, under two projects financed by U. P.
Council of Agricultural Research (UPCAR) has made
extensive collection of Kalanamak from all possible sources.
These sources include National Gene Bank of NBPGR, New
Delhi; N. D. University of Agriculture and Technology,
Faizabad; Central Rice Research Institute Cuttack, and
farmers of Basti, Deoria, Gorakhpur, Sant Kabir Nagar,
Siddharth Nagar, Kushinagar and Mahrajganj districts.
Extensive testing of hundreds of collections of Kalanamak
was done. It was not surprising to find out that some of the
collections of Kalanamak were non-aromatic although the
grain appearance was identical to Kalanamak. Some
accessions had mixtures of scented and non-scented
Kalanamak in various proportions. The pureline selection by
following panicle-to-row method done from the collection of
Siddharth Nagar district was tested as KN3-27-3-3 and
released by U. P. State Variety Release Sub-Committee and
notified by the Central Variety Release Committee in 2010 as
KN3 ( ).
Development and Releaseof Bauna Kalanamak 101
Bauna Kalanamak 101 was developed out of a cross
Kalanamak KN 3 with Swarna Sub and tested as UPCAR-1

Demonstration and Testing Station (RATDS) of Department
of Agriculture conduct varietal trials annually on the new
varieties to be considered for release. PRDF had proposed a
number of semi-dwarf breeding lines of Kalanamak for
testing.
These breeding lines were tested at RATDS during the years
2012 to 2015 in state trial called “Paddy Standard Varietal
Trial: local aromatic, irrigated”. The average yield superiority
of UPCARKN-2-19-14 was 46.41 over its check Kalanamak
KN3. It was released by the State Variety Release Sub-
Committee in 2016. The Central Sub-Committee on Crop
Standards, Notification and Release of Varieties for
Agricultural Crops of Government of India approved in its
th
75 meeting and notified it in its Gazette No. 3-51/2016-SD.IV
rd
dated 23 December 2016 with the name “Bauna Kalanamak
101”.
Development and Release of Bauna Kalanamak 102
Bauna Kalanamak 102 was developed out of a cross
Kalanamak KN 3 with Improved Sambha Mahsuri and tested
as UPCARKN-1-5-1-1-1 at RATDS of Department of
Agriculture U. P. during 2012, 2013 and 2014. It was released
and notified during the year 2016 as Bauna Kalanamak 102. Its
plant height is around 95cm, lodging resistant and suitable for
harvesting by combine harvester. Based on the overall test, the
test entry UPCARKN-1-5-1 (Bauna Kalanamak 102) yielded
32.37quintal / ha.
That way it out-yielded the check variety Kalanamak KN3 by
30.37%. Bauna Kalanamak 102 matures earlier than
Kalanamak KN3 by 10 days. In all India trials (AICRIP)
conducted by Indian Institute of Rice Research (IIRR)
Hyderabad in Kharif 2014, the mean yield was 3198 kg/ha as
against 2792 of Kalanamak KN3, and flowering duration
earlier by 11 days across India. In the year 2017 it was released
by U. P. State Department of Agriculture, and notified by
Government if India as “Bauna Kalanamak 102” and notified
by GovernmentofIndia.
Development and Release of Kalanamak Kiran
Selected out of cross of Kalanamak KN3 and Swarna Sub , was1
tested at RATDS of Department of Agriculture as PRDF-2-14-
10 (Kalanamak Kiran), was tested at RATDS during 2013 –
2016. It stood at first rank with average yield of 32.95 quintal /
ha. It out-yielded the check variety Kalanamak KN3 by
26.58 %. Its aroma content was confirmed by the Indian
Institute of Chemical Technology (IICT), Hyderabad as equal
to KN3. It is semi-dwarf (height around 95cm), lodging
resistant and suitable for harvesting by combine harvester.
Bauna Kalanamak 102 has the same level of Iron and Zinc as
its original parent Kalanamak and thus worthy of inclusion in
the NutriFarm schemes and any other biofortification
schemes. It is under Notification by the Government of India
during2018.
Morpho-agronomic Characters
Kalanamak is strongly photoperiod sensitive variety with
short basic vegetative phase and heads during mid October.

Grain quality
Kalanamak is known for its excellent grain and eating quality
( ). Kalanamak should be cultivated only during Kharif
season to maintain its grain quality. Kalanamak and the four
varieties developed so far have short grain and classed as
Medium Slender variety. These have very high (70%) head
rice recovery. These cook soft and have excellent grain
elongation (Table 3). In all India testing under AICRP,
Table 3
coordinated by Indian Institute of Rice Research, Hyderabad
it was found to have all favourable grain quality characters
( ). Kalanamak varieties have the highest level of Iron
and Zinc combined. Due to this reason, it was the only variety
from north India that was included in the NutriFarm Project
of the Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India.
Government of U.P. has included Kalanamak in the
NutriFarm projectalso.

Scientific cultivation practice of Kalanamak
Due to small grain size, lower 1,000-grain weight, 30 kg / ha,
seed rate is recommended. Ideal time of its nursery sowing is
last week of June to first week of July. Once the seedlings have
attained the age of about 30 days, these are ready for
transplanting.Atemperature ranges of 25 to 30 degree Celsius
is ideal for aroma retention in the grain. If the temperature is
higher than 30 degrees Celsius, the leaves will synthesise the
aroma but it will not accumulate in the grain. For raising
nursery of Kalanamak, wet seedbed method of raising the
nursery is recommended. In case green manuring is not
possible 6 – 10 tonnes of FYM or compost should be applied
before ploughing. It has also been found by experienced
farmers that application of 2 quintals of Neem cake is useful
not only to supply the Nitrogen but also to reduce the
incidence of pests and diseases. Fertilizer dose of 60: 30: 30
kg/ha for KN3 and 120:60:60 N: P: K kg/ ha for Bauna
Kalanamak is needed. Transplanting is done using 20 cm X 15
cm spacing. Weed management are easier for Kalanamak due
to its vigorous vegetative growth. Harvestings is done by the
end of November. Sheath blight and grain sucking pests need
tobe controlled.
Protocol for Organic Production of Kalanamak
Protocol for producing organic Kalanamak rice was
developed based on the multi-location and multi-year trial
( ). Based on the results a manual prepared for farmers
( ) using Trichoderma and
Pseudomonas in combination showed synergistic effect and
increased the yield ( ). Additional treatments with
green manure, BGA, PSB were added for farmers of different
area.
Plant protection measures using Waste Decomposer, Amrit
Paani etc were also perfected. Gorakhpur district has been
selected under Paramaparagat Krishi Vikas Yojna (PKVY) for
organic farming. Organic production of Kalanamak rice is
adding fuel to the fire of increasing the area under Kalanamak
andtripling farmers'incomeonmuchlarger scale.

Economicsof Kalanamak and Tripling Farmers' Income
Due to poor yield, poor quality and lesser income as
compared to HYV rice, area under Kalanamak had declined.
However, now with the availability of better quality variety
Kalanamak KN3 and high yielding ones like Bauna
Kalanamak 101 and Bauna Kalanamak 102 those negatives
have been annulled. Government announces Minimum
Support Price (MSP) for fine rice around Rs. 1650/ qtl.
However, most farmers cannot get that rate due to various
reasons and are compelled to sell their paddy around Rs. 1000
to Rs. 1300/- qtl. Compared to that, Kalanamak rice sells
between Rs. 2,500 to Rs. 3500 /- quintal. Thus, now
Kalanamak farmers are receiving triple income. Another
feather the project has added is production of Organic
Kalanamak that fetches 20 percent higher price. Taking an
average yield of common rice 40 qtl/ha can give a gross profit
Rs. 52,000/-. After deducting the cost of cultivation of Rs.
34,500/-, the net profit would be Rs. 17,500. Kalanamak KN3
and Bauna Kalanamak can give an average yield 25 and 35
quintal per ha respectively. This amounts to a gross profit
between Rs. 75,000/- and Rs. 1,05,000/- per ha respectively to
the farmers. Deducting a production cost of Rs. 30,625/- and
Rs. 33,750/- per ha respectively, the net profit would be Rs.
44,375/- and Rs. 71,250/- per ha. The net profit would be as
high as double to triple of the current common rice ( ).
This should bring prosperity to the farmers of eastern U. P.
Incremental income from the will be Rs. 39,375/- and Rs.
53,750/- respectively for KN 3 and Bauna Kalanamak.
Production of Organic Kalanamak further benefits organic
farmers by as much as Rs. 75,000/- per ha, which amounts to
tripling the income.

Marketing Linkage to Assure Income
In the past, marketing and consumption of Kalanamak has
been limited to eastern part of UP. and by those who migrated
to other parts of India from this region. Now consumers and
marketers are looking for diversification of Basmati market
and promote local specialty rice varieties. Common slogan
that “Basmati for your eyes and Kalanamak for your palate” is
popular. Under this changed thinking, processers, marketers
and consumers are coming up from far-and-wide. PRDF is
[Journal of AgriSearch, Vol.6, No.1]Yadav et al

facilitating this expansion by generating awareness through
publicity and exhibitions. Growing interest of consumers in
Organic Food is also creating market for Kalanamak
( ). Under PGS certification, PRDF is
producing “PGS INDIAOrganic” certified rice. Recent policy
of U. P. State Government of “One District One Product”
Kalanamak rice has been assigned to district Siddharth Nagar
for marketing which helps to increase the income at triples
rate. Kalanamak has also received Geographical Indication
(GI) mark for 11 districts of U. P., which will benefit farmers
further ( and ).
CONCLUSION
Improved varieties of Kalanamak rice namely KN3, Bauna
Kalanamak 101, Bauna Kalanamak 102 and Kalanamak Kiran
have been developed. Package of practices to produce
common and organic Kalanamak rice and its certification
have been developed. Hundreds of farmers are linked with
the local and export markets on attractive terms for sales on
Chaudhary, 2002
Vandanaet al., 2010 Chaudhary et al., 2017
long-term basis. Summarily compared to Rs. 17,500 / ha net
profit from common HYV rice, Kalanamak KN3 will give Rs.
44,375, Bauna Kalanamak Rs. 71,500 and Organic Bauna
Kalanamak Rs. 92,500 net profit per hectare. With the PRDF
arranged contract growing, by involving farmers and
marketing companies from Kharif 2018 onwards, tripling the
net profit of the farmers will get assured sustainably. Thus, the
proverb “PaddyandPoverty gotogether”isamyth now.

Improving Farmers' Income

  • 1. Journal of AgriSearch, 5(4):1-5 1 2* 2 2 SK YADAV , RC CHAUDHARY , SUNIL KUMAR AND SB MISHRA ISSN : 2348-8808 (Print), 2348-8867 (Online) https://doi.org/ 1 UP Council of Agricultural Research, Gomti Nagar, Lucknow, India An Open Access International Peer Reviewed Quarterly Breakthrough in improving farmers' income sustainably by producing Kalanamak rice Rice is one of the important cereals crop mainly grown in kharif season and play very significant role in Indian food security ( ). Kalanamak rice variety is an epitome of best aromatic rice cultivated and consumed in Northeastern part of Uttar Pradesh ( ). To the local palate, it was even classed superior to Indian mystery rice Basmati. However, over centuries of cultivation and farmers' way of handling seed, neglect by rice research institutions and double onslaught on economic front by High Yielding Varieties (HYV), its area went down from 50,000 ha to less than 2,000 ha during1990and2000 again reboundupto 35000ha during2018 ( ). Singh et al., 2017 Chaudhary and Tran, 2001 Table 1 ARTICLE INFO Received on Accepted on Published online 06-09-2018 25-02-2019 : : : Kalanamak is heritage rice of eastern Uttar Pradesh and valued for its aroma, taste and nutritive quality. Four improved varieties, KN3, Bauna Kalanamak 101, Bauna Kalanamak 102 and Kalanamak Kiran were released in 2010, 2016, 2017and 2018 respectively. Last three varieties yield 50% more than traditional Kalanamak KN3 and mature 10 days earlier. Normal selling price of the Kalanamak paddy ranges between Rs. 2500/- to Rs. 3500/- per quintal. Organic Kalanamak fetches 20% premium over normal Kalanamak. Summarily compared to Rs. 17,500 / ha net profit from common HYV rice, Kalanamak KN3 will give Rs. 44,375, Bauna Kalanamak Rs. 71,500 and Organic Kalanamak Rs. 92,500 per hectare net profit, hence better net profit of the farmersisassuredsustainably. Kalanamak rice, tripling farmers' income, organic production, market linkage Keyword : 2 Participatory Rural Development Foundation, 59 Canal Road, Shivpur - Shahbazganj, Gorakhpur (U.P.) 273014 E-mail: ram.chaudhary@gmail.com ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION 1 Reported grain "quality" deterioration and loss of aroma was discovered due to a gamut of reasons starting from spontaneous mutation and out-crossing that resulted into mixtures of aromatic and non-aromatic types, non-scientific seed production and altered cultivation and processing practices. However, by continued researches, funded by U. P. Council of Agricultural Research (UPCAR) during 2001 to 2008, done at Participatory Rural Development Foundation (PRDF) technologies was developed to save Kalanamak and hope to bring its old glory back. Kalanamak variety of rice has been under cultivation since time immemorial. Exact history of its cultivation is not recorded but it is believed that Kalanamak was a preferred variety for offerings given to Lord Buddha some three thousand years ago ( ). Kalanamak has been in cultivation mainly in Northeastern part of Uttar Pradesh and western and central part of Nepal Tarai. Over a period of a few thousand years under cultivation and with no system of scientific seed production, there has been rapid decline in its grain quality. Many voices were raised for its declining grain quality and reducing area but nothing concrete was done to improve the situation by any researchinstitution. MATERIALS AND METHODS The material for the study comprised of four released and notified varieties of Kalanamak namely Kalanamak KN3, Bauna Kalanamak 101 and Bauna Kalanamak 102. Kalanamak KN3 was developed out of a large germplasm Chaudhary andTran, 2001 Table 1: Area (estimate of PRDF) during 1960 to 2017 under Kalanamak varieties in 11 districts covered under Geographical Indicator (GI) Year Total Area (ha) of Kalanamak 1960 50,000 1970 40,000 1980 10,000 1990 2,000 2000 2,000 2010 3,000 2015 10,000 2016 20,000 2017 25,000 2018 35,000 Remark on technologies Traditional area under Kalanamak Traditional area under Kalanamak Spread of HYV rice Spread of HYV rice Spread of HYV rice Notification of Kalanamak KN3 Demonstration of Kalanamak KN3 Notification of Bauna Kalanamak 101 Notification of Bauna Kalanamak 102 Release of Kalanamak Kiran
  • 2. [Journal of AgriSearch, Vol.6, No.1] Improving farmers income through Kalanamak rice 2 collection of more than 150 accessions of Kalanamak collected by PRDF. Bauna Kalanamak 101 and Bauna Kalanamak 102 were developed through hybridization of KN3 Swarna Sub1 and Improved Sambha Mahsuri respectively. Kalanamak Kiran was also developed through hybridization of KN 3 and Swarna Sub followed by pedigree selection. The Certified1 Seeds of these were provided to the farmers in Basti, Deoria, Gorakhpur, Kushinagar, Mahrajganaj, Sant Kabir Nagar and Siddharth Nagar districts. Each demo plots or experiments wereconductedin oneacreplots. Organic protocol for the production of Organic Kalanamak rice was developed using various known inputs from organic Kalanamak. Green Manure, Bhumishakti, Herbozyme, FYM, Poultry dropping, Trichoderma, Pseudomonas and Neem- based pesticides were used for raising the crop. Trial was laid out in Randomised Complete Block Design at three locations in Gorakhpur, Mahrajganj and Siddharth Nagar districts. Grain quality analyses were performed at NDUAT Faizabad, and Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, Hyderabad. Cost benefit were calculated taking actual data from a number offarmersusing survey methods. RESULTSANDDISCUSSION Initial researchto improve Kalanamak Initial research on Kalanamak started with the collection of its germplasm and mutation breeding ( ). Using 42 morpho-agronomic characters, accession was described and catalogue was prepared and the entire collection was deposited in the National Gene Bank at NBPGR New Delhi. The mutants were mostly of academic nature ( ) but few were tested in yield trials but none were found superior to existing varieties ( ). Purification and releaseof first Kalanamak variety PRDF in Gorakhpur, under two projects financed by U. P. Council of Agricultural Research (UPCAR) has made extensive collection of Kalanamak from all possible sources. These sources include National Gene Bank of NBPGR, New Delhi; N. D. University of Agriculture and Technology, Faizabad; Central Rice Research Institute Cuttack, and farmers of Basti, Deoria, Gorakhpur, Sant Kabir Nagar, Siddharth Nagar, Kushinagar and Mahrajganj districts. Extensive testing of hundreds of collections of Kalanamak was done. It was not surprising to find out that some of the collections of Kalanamak were non-aromatic although the grain appearance was identical to Kalanamak. Some accessions had mixtures of scented and non-scented Kalanamak in various proportions. The pureline selection by following panicle-to-row method done from the collection of Siddharth Nagar district was tested as KN3-27-3-3 and released by U. P. State Variety Release Sub-Committee and notified by the Central Variety Release Committee in 2010 as KN3 ( ). Development and Releaseof Bauna Kalanamak 101 Bauna Kalanamak 101 was developed out of a cross Kalanamak KN 3 with Swarna Sub and tested as UPCAR-1 KN-2-19-14-1-1. Regional Agricultural Technology Nanda et al., 1974 Mishra and Chaudhary, 2011 Chaudhary et al., 2012 Chaudhary et al.,2008 Demonstration and Testing Station (RATDS) of Department of Agriculture conduct varietal trials annually on the new varieties to be considered for release. PRDF had proposed a number of semi-dwarf breeding lines of Kalanamak for testing. These breeding lines were tested at RATDS during the years 2012 to 2015 in state trial called “Paddy Standard Varietal Trial: local aromatic, irrigated”. The average yield superiority of UPCARKN-2-19-14 was 46.41 over its check Kalanamak KN3. It was released by the State Variety Release Sub- Committee in 2016. The Central Sub-Committee on Crop Standards, Notification and Release of Varieties for Agricultural Crops of Government of India approved in its th 75 meeting and notified it in its Gazette No. 3-51/2016-SD.IV rd dated 23 December 2016 with the name “Bauna Kalanamak 101”. Development and Release of Bauna Kalanamak 102 Bauna Kalanamak 102 was developed out of a cross Kalanamak KN 3 with Improved Sambha Mahsuri and tested as UPCARKN-1-5-1-1-1 at RATDS of Department of Agriculture U. P. during 2012, 2013 and 2014. It was released and notified during the year 2016 as Bauna Kalanamak 102. Its plant height is around 95cm, lodging resistant and suitable for harvesting by combine harvester. Based on the overall test, the test entry UPCARKN-1-5-1 (Bauna Kalanamak 102) yielded 32.37quintal / ha. That way it out-yielded the check variety Kalanamak KN3 by 30.37%. Bauna Kalanamak 102 matures earlier than Kalanamak KN3 by 10 days. In all India trials (AICRIP) conducted by Indian Institute of Rice Research (IIRR) Hyderabad in Kharif 2014, the mean yield was 3198 kg/ha as against 2792 of Kalanamak KN3, and flowering duration earlier by 11 days across India. In the year 2017 it was released by U. P. State Department of Agriculture, and notified by Government if India as “Bauna Kalanamak 102” and notified by GovernmentofIndia. Development and Release of Kalanamak Kiran Selected out of cross of Kalanamak KN3 and Swarna Sub , was1 tested at RATDS of Department of Agriculture as PRDF-2-14- 10 (Kalanamak Kiran), was tested at RATDS during 2013 – 2016. It stood at first rank with average yield of 32.95 quintal / ha. It out-yielded the check variety Kalanamak KN3 by 26.58 %. Its aroma content was confirmed by the Indian Institute of Chemical Technology (IICT), Hyderabad as equal to KN3. It is semi-dwarf (height around 95cm), lodging resistant and suitable for harvesting by combine harvester. Bauna Kalanamak 102 has the same level of Iron and Zinc as its original parent Kalanamak and thus worthy of inclusion in the NutriFarm schemes and any other biofortification schemes. It is under Notification by the Government of India during2018. Morpho-agronomic Characters Kalanamak is strongly photoperiod sensitive variety with short basic vegetative phase and heads during mid October. Itsmorpho-agronomiccharactersaregivenin Table 2.
  • 3. [Journal of AgriSearch, Vol.6, No.1] 3 Grain quality Kalanamak is known for its excellent grain and eating quality ( ). Kalanamak should be cultivated only during Kharif season to maintain its grain quality. Kalanamak and the four varieties developed so far have short grain and classed as Medium Slender variety. These have very high (70%) head rice recovery. These cook soft and have excellent grain elongation (Table 3). In all India testing under AICRP, Table 3 coordinated by Indian Institute of Rice Research, Hyderabad it was found to have all favourable grain quality characters ( ). Kalanamak varieties have the highest level of Iron and Zinc combined. Due to this reason, it was the only variety from north India that was included in the NutriFarm Project of the Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India. Government of U.P. has included Kalanamak in the NutriFarm projectalso.

  • 4. [Journal of AgriSearch, Vol.6, No.1] Improving farmers income through Kalanamak rice 4 Scientific cultivation practice of Kalanamak Due to small grain size, lower 1,000-grain weight, 30 kg / ha, seed rate is recommended. Ideal time of its nursery sowing is last week of June to first week of July. Once the seedlings have attained the age of about 30 days, these are ready for transplanting.Atemperature ranges of 25 to 30 degree Celsius is ideal for aroma retention in the grain. If the temperature is higher than 30 degrees Celsius, the leaves will synthesise the aroma but it will not accumulate in the grain. For raising nursery of Kalanamak, wet seedbed method of raising the nursery is recommended. In case green manuring is not possible 6 – 10 tonnes of FYM or compost should be applied before ploughing. It has also been found by experienced farmers that application of 2 quintals of Neem cake is useful not only to supply the Nitrogen but also to reduce the incidence of pests and diseases. Fertilizer dose of 60: 30: 30 kg/ha for KN3 and 120:60:60 N: P: K kg/ ha for Bauna Kalanamak is needed. Transplanting is done using 20 cm X 15 cm spacing. Weed management are easier for Kalanamak due to its vigorous vegetative growth. Harvestings is done by the end of November. Sheath blight and grain sucking pests need tobe controlled. Protocol for Organic Production of Kalanamak Protocol for producing organic Kalanamak rice was developed based on the multi-location and multi-year trial ( ). Based on the results a manual prepared for farmers ( ) using Trichoderma and Pseudomonas in combination showed synergistic effect and increased the yield ( ). Additional treatments with green manure, BGA, PSB were added for farmers of different area. Plant protection measures using Waste Decomposer, Amrit Paani etc were also perfected. Gorakhpur district has been selected under Paramaparagat Krishi Vikas Yojna (PKVY) for organic farming. Organic production of Kalanamak rice is adding fuel to the fire of increasing the area under Kalanamak andtripling farmers'incomeonmuchlarger scale. Table 1 Chaudhary and Mishra, 2016 Table 1 * Highest yield andsignificantly higher than all othertreatments. **Basal at Gorakhpur was Herbozyme @ 40 kg/ ha, at Mahrajganj, FYM @ 10tons/ ha, andat SiddharthNagar, BhumiShakti @ of1,750 kg / ha.

However, now with the availability of better quality variety Kalanamak KN3 and high yielding ones like Bauna Kalanamak 101 and Bauna Kalanamak 102 those negatives have been annulled. Government announces Minimum Support Price (MSP) for fine rice around Rs. 1650/ qtl. However, most farmers cannot get that rate due to various reasons and are compelled to sell their paddy around Rs. 1000 to Rs. 1300/- qtl. Compared to that, Kalanamak rice sells between Rs. 2,500 to Rs. 3500 /- quintal. Thus, now Kalanamak farmers are receiving triple income. Another feather the project has added is production of Organic Kalanamak that fetches 20 percent higher price. Taking an average yield of common rice 40 qtl/ha can give a gross profit Rs. 52,000/-. After deducting the cost of cultivation of Rs. 34,500/-, the net profit would be Rs. 17,500. Kalanamak KN3 and Bauna Kalanamak can give an average yield 25 and 35 quintal per ha respectively. This amounts to a gross profit between Rs. 75,000/- and Rs. 1,05,000/- per ha respectively to the farmers. Deducting a production cost of Rs. 30,625/- and Rs. 33,750/- per ha respectively, the net profit would be Rs. 44,375/- and Rs. 71,250/- per ha. The net profit would be as high as double to triple of the current common rice ( ). This should bring prosperity to the farmers of eastern U. P. Incremental income from the will be Rs. 39,375/- and Rs. 53,750/- respectively for KN 3 and Bauna Kalanamak. Production of Organic Kalanamak further benefits organic farmers by as much as Rs. 75,000/- per ha, which amounts to tripling the income.

Now consumers and marketers are looking for diversification of Basmati market and promote local specialty rice varieties. Common slogan that “Basmati for your eyes and Kalanamak for your palate” is popular. Under this changed thinking, processers, marketers and consumers are coming up from far-and-wide. PRDF is
  • 5. [Journal of AgriSearch, Vol.6, No.1]Yadav et al 5 facilitating this expansion by generating awareness through publicity and exhibitions. Growing interest of consumers in Organic Food is also creating market for Kalanamak ( ). Under PGS certification, PRDF is producing “PGS INDIAOrganic” certified rice. Recent policy of U. P. State Government of “One District One Product” Kalanamak rice has been assigned to district Siddharth Nagar for marketing which helps to increase the income at triples rate. Kalanamak has also received Geographical Indication (GI) mark for 11 districts of U. P., which will benefit farmers further ( and ). CONCLUSION Improved varieties of Kalanamak rice namely KN3, Bauna Kalanamak 101, Bauna Kalanamak 102 and Kalanamak Kiran have been developed. Package of practices to produce common and organic Kalanamak rice and its certification have been developed. Hundreds of farmers are linked with the local and export markets on attractive terms for sales on Chaudhary, 2002 Vandanaet al., 2010 Chaudhary et al., 2017 long-term basis. Summarily compared to Rs. 17,500 / ha net profit from common HYV rice, Kalanamak KN3 will give Rs. 44,375, Bauna Kalanamak Rs. 71,500 and Organic Bauna Kalanamak Rs. 92,500 net profit per hectare. With the PRDF arranged contract growing, by involving farmers and marketing companies from Kharif 2018 onwards, tripling the net profit of the farmers will get assured sustainably. Thus, the proverb “PaddyandPoverty gotogether”isamyth now. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Organizations viz., GB Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar, UP Council of Agricultural Research (UPCAR) Lucknow, Tata Trusts Mumbai, Sujalam Sufalam Project Lucknow and Department ofAgriculture UP under its PKVY project, have supported the researches on Kalanamak rice. Due acknowledgement is made for them as without their financial support the technologies for Kalanamak rice would have notbeen developed. REFERENCES Chaudhary RC and Mishra SB. 2016.
