- W2170257470 abstract "Indigenous crop cultivation practices are generally organic in nature, do not cause damage to air, water and soil and are safe to human beings. These practices differ considerably from region to region depending on soil type, rainfall, topography etc., and show often modifications by local farmers. In recent years, there has been a growing scientific interest in these indigenous practices as a source of sound ideas that could lead to sustainable use and management of land resources. This article reports the indigenous maize cultivation practices of the farming community in Karimnagar district of Andhra Pradesh. The scientific rationality of these practices as perceived by the scientists is also discussed. Farmers are very keen to observe the problems arising during farming and seek solutions to adjust to their local environmental conditions. They continuously adapt and manage their farming systems and in this way, they develop a rich storehouse of practical knowledge on their situation. It is evident that so called uneducated farmers are capable of creating and maintaining large and complex systems to achieve mutually beneficial results. The traditional solutions are often highly suited to the ecology of the region and for the farmers concerned. They developed farm systems based on local resources with minimal use of outside inputs. Maintenance of diversity, as a basis for ecological balance and economic stability, is based on agro-climatic conditions, soil types and the availability of water. Since Indigenous Technical Knowledge (ITK) used for maize production is not readily available to researchers, there is a need to systematically document, study and test its validity. Therefore, the study was designed to i. To identify and document the indigenous practices followed by maize growing farmers in selected areas of Andhra Pradesh.ii. To analyse the scientific rationality behind these indigenous practices. METHODOLOGY" @default.
