Integrated farming system

                                                   
                                         INTEGRATED FARMING SYSTEM

                 IFS model is very useful to the farmers. Those days the farmers were only concentrating in crop production.Based on that, only farmers get the money. Now a days (or)
present days,because of lack of labour and lack of land this model is very effective.
In this model, a small area will be covered by many enterprises like poultry, dairy, crop         production,sericulture,mushroom production,apiculture,fishery,biogas plant,agro forestry.And also there will be effective utilization of resourses like fertilizer, land, labour and etc.,will be there.

            The farmers get more income trough this method. And also minimizes the risk of the farmers. If one enterprise fails to get money means other enterprise will be used to get money.
The byproduct of one enterprise will be used for other enterprises.So,no wastage of byproduct 
will be there.For eg, the cowdung of cattle will be used as farmyard manure of crop production field. And also the straw of crop will be used feed for animals.By adoption of mushroom 
cultivation ,farmers will get income regularly. Cost of cultivation also minimized.
