DISTRICT SCENERIO
West Godavari District is carved out of old Godavari District. As it is the western delta of the River Godavari, it was appropriately named as West Godavari with Head quarters at Eluru and came into existence on 15th April 1925 comprising of 46 Mandals.

AGRICULTURE: West Godavari is basically an agricultural based district with 62% of total geographical area of the district is under cultivation. It is also having distinction of being Rice Granary of Andhra Pradesh. With an extent 2.5 lakh ha in Kharif and 1.9 lakh Ha in rabi covering 71% of the total cultivated area, with an average yield of 3681 & 4245 kgs / Hect in Kharif and Rabi Respectively. SOILS : West Godavari is mainly constituted with loamy soils which occupies to the tune of 60-70 %. Basically, soil is the important criteria in utilization of machinery in delta. Considering the soil nature we introduced two types of harvesting machinery I.e. track and tyre type. IRRIGATION SOURCES. In West Godavari Paddy is totally cultivated under irrigated conditions with a major source of canal (51%), Bore wells (49%) The Major source of canal is Godavari western deltas and 10% of canal irrigated is covered by 4 Minor irrigation projects like Thammileru, Vijayarai, Jalleru and Yerrakalava. TIME OF SOWING: In West Godavari the paddy cultivation is mainly Paddy-Paddy pattern. Major part of sowings will be taken up in July-Aug (Kharif) and Dec- Jan (Rabi), which causes the overlapping practices.

COST OF CULTIVATION

The cost of cultivation for paddy is increasing year by year without any proportionate improvement in production, leaving very little net returns to the farmer. In review of the facts major head of the Expense is labour cost comprising 80% of the total cost. The socio economic changes created the labour shortage, causing untimely agricultural operations, which is one of the major factor influencing the productivity. The labour charge is almost doubled within 2 years.

This present agricultural situation, lead the scientific community and people involved in the agricultural sector to economize the cultivation and generate good net returns to farmers. Finally with all analytical studies we felt Farm Mechanization may solve the purpose. We totally studied the district in the lines of soil suitability, socio economic status of the farmers to introduce the heavy machinery.

COMPANY PROFILE OF ANIL AGROS

Weakness : Delay in reach to the farmer having nursery at single point, causing huge loss financially in transport and mortality of seedlings.

4 . ON GOING ACTIVITIES

1. Uniform leveling of the land by using Laser Guided Leveling Machine. Properly leveled land improves the uniform and optimum usage of water and fertilizers.

2. Thorough ploughing of the land by the Japanese 4wd Tractor with rotavatory, without fixing full or half cage wheels to the tractor, which avoids undulated pits.

3. Seedlings will be raised in the Plastic trays by Automatic Seedling Machine and which are ready for planting by 16 days. Seedlings from 80 trays are sufficient per Acre. At present we are taking up the operation at Centralized Nursery in Gundugolanu and we are equipped with 14000 trays .

4. We are equipped with 8 row Kubota Rice Transplanter having capacity To complete 1 Acre per hour. We can do 10 Acres/ day

5. We take up harvesting by Head loaded Harvester so that the farmer get HAY with out any damage, so that he can feed the cattle with out any problem.

6. We use Hay Baler to press Hay by haydraulic system and tie with threadswhich drastically reduces the storage space.

5. CONCLUSION AND SUBMITION: With our little experience and exposure for the past 2 years, we are interested to extend our activities at all major mandal Hq, to avoid transport loss of seedlings and expences. We anticipating a needy and positive support.
