The data were collected from these centers and analyzed. The results showed that the contribution of silt application during second year (2009-10) was more pronounced although 2009 was a mega drought year. Rainwater productivity in terms of yields without and with silt application during 2009-10 (2 nd year) varied from 0.29 and 0.33 kg/ha/mm in case of mulberry in Kolar to 2.07 and 3.34 kg/ha/mm in groundnut in Anantapur, respectively. Significantly higher yield increase in treated with silt over untreated registered in case of castor (229% or 2.52 q/ ha) in Nalgonda and groundnut (153% or 4.07 q/ha) in Anantapur while it was non-significant in case of cotton in Warangal and mulberry in Kolar during 2008-09. Across the crops and between the treated versus untreated trials and years, cotton in Warangal district registered the highest benefit-cost ratio in treated (3.75) and untreated (3.14) trials. Water productivity of crops in terms of income accrued per millimeter of water was found to be higher with silt application than without in both the years in all the centers, however, year 2009-10 was better than 2008-09. The additional benefits to cost ratio (BCR) ranged between 5.16 in case of cotton in Warangal and 0.25 in case of mulberry in Kolar. The pay back period (PBP) and BCR at 12% discount rate of silt application in castor cultivation was found to be 6 years and 1.70, respectively while internal rate of return (IRR) worked out to 30%.

The study identified sustainable and profitable land uses, estimated credit requirement and formulated credit investment action plan. A total of 270 respondents were selected from three districts at 90 respondents per district. Profitable annual and perennial crops and livestock enterprises were identified based on the calculated value of system index and benefit-cost ratio. Benefit-cost ratio varied from 1.58 in cotton + pigeonpea intercropping system in rural areas to 3.98 in soybean + pigeonpea in peri-urban agriculture in Adilabad, from 1.69 in the production of chillies to 2.65 in cotton + pigeonpea in rural areas of Nalgonda and from 1.71 in the production of vegetables in rural to 7.14 in the production of turmeric in peri-urban agriculture in Warangal. The economic indicators taking a lifespan of 15 years for fruit trees showed a payback period of 5 and 7 years; BCR of 1.61 and 2.07 and NPV of ` 267 crores and ` 109 crores constant at 2010 prices for sweet orange and mango in Nalgonda and Warangal districts, respectively. Every one rupee invested in sweet orange and mango fruit trees provide an income of ` 1.61 and ` 2.07, respectively. Every one rupee invested on rearing of large ruminants for dairy accrues ` 3.04, ` 3.44 and ` 3.32 while small ruminants rearing gives ` 4.05, ` 5.28 and ` 5.54 in Adilabad, Nalgonda and Warangal districts, respectively. A district level investment action plan taking full credit requirement for crops, fruit trees and livestock was formulated which has policy implication as there is a large credit demand from the farming community.
