Designing profitable, resource use efficient and environmentally sound cereal based systems for the Western Indo-Gangetic plains

In the western Indo-Gangetic plains, issues of deterioration in soil, water, and environment quality coupled with low profitability jeopardize the sustainability of the dominant rice-wheat (RW) system. To address these issues, crop diversification and conservation agriculture (CA)-based management h...
