Strategies for weather related contingencies 2.1 Drought
Rainfed situation
Sowing of sprouted seeds Compound with Maharashtra State Seed Corporation Finger millet Cowpea (Var. Konkan Sadabahar). Finger millet Legumes such as cow pea (Var.. Konkan Sadabahar), black gram (TPU-4) Oilseed likeNiger (Var. Increase nitrogen dose of 25%) In case of shortage of seedlings, prepare the seedling for a mat nursery with a short-lived variety .
Use water from external sources like farm ponds, nalas, streams, rivers for puddles. Protective irrigation Use water from the external sources like farm ponds, nalas, streams, rivers for ponding Low land. Cowpea, groundnut, watermelon, leafy vegetables, growing seedlings for chilli, brinjal, cabbage, tuber tuber.
Irrigated situation
The crop is harvested at physiological maturity. pumpkins Leafy vegetables, Cultivation of seedlings for chillies, brinjal, cabbages, scallions. Rice (Rabi season) Beans, horse peas, black beans, black beans, mustard on residual moisture under low soil. Banana Drain excess water Drain excess water Drain excess water Drain excess water.
Black gram Drain excess water Drain excess water -Do- Immediately thresh and dry in shed.
Floods
Strengthening of stream and seawall to prevent seawater intrusion Drain seawater out, Irrigate the affected area with fresh water and drain out.
Extreme events: Heat wave / Cold wave/Frost/ Hailstorm /Cyclone
Arecanut Support the young seedlings ---- Collect fallen tender nuts from the market. Collect fallen tender nuts from the market.
Contingent strategies for Livestock, Poultry & Fisheries .1 Livestock
Poultry
There should be availability of feed, feed ingredients and mineral mixes with sufficient storage capacity for each district. The kit should be placed in a central location and everyone should know where it is. The feed replacement ingredient should be used as a substitute for maize grain which can be used for poultry feed.
Permanent water sources should be developed even after the event with a public awareness campaign. Personnel should be trained in poultry health and disease management through trainings and list of trained personnel should be available in each district center with stock of medicines, mineral mixture and poultry vaccine. Therefore, proper feeding should be done to minimize stress in the birds by supplying vitamin supplements.
Birds should be tested at regular intervals to confirm that they are free of infectious diseases. Sufficient storage capacity must be made available especially during rainy season in view of the forecast of flood. Adequate facilities for transportation with advanced proper planning should be made in the areas of each district.
Sufficient transport infrastructure should be made in the areas of each district with advanced proper planning. Staff should be trained in health and disease management through trainings and a list of trained staff should be available in each district headquarters for flood affected areas with stocks of medicines, mineral mixes and poultry vaccine. Preventive measures should be taken to reduce the occurrence of disease, especially the use of antibiotics in drinking water.
Feed and feed ingredient resources should be utilized with adequate transport and storage facilities from other areas of the district. Feed and feed ingredient resources should be utilized with adequate transport and storage facilities from other areas of the district even after the event. During heat, the mist system must be ready, and during cold, artificial heat must be provided through electricity.
Fisheries/ Aquaculture
Personnel should be trained in health and disease management through training and a list of trained personnel should be available at each district center during heat and cold waves with stock of life-saving medicines, vaccines, feed and mineral mixtures for poultry. The services of trained personnel should be made available in the affected area with facilities to overcome heat waves through availability of water and cold through proper closed shelter with sufficient supply of poultry medicines and vaccines. Routine training program as a refresher course should be implemented in relation to health and disease management during heat and cold waves with adequate stock of poultry medicines and vaccines and arrangement.
Drought A. Capture
Strategic plan should be made to build forests and save water in drought prone areas. transfer to the less affected areas to preserve it and. reintroduction into its regional habitat. It is necessary to establish hatcheries for fish species affected by drought to avoid their extinction, and the conserved species should be reintroduced to their original habitats after the desired aquatic environment is achieved. ii) Changes in water quality Regular monitoring of water quality Need to harvest the stock to minimize economic losses before mass mortality due to undesirable water quality. After the desired water quality has been achieved, conserved species must be reintroduced into their original habitats. iii).
To preserve the endangered species, breeding and rearing indoor facilities can be established for future restoration. The preserved species must be reintroduced to their original habitats after having achieved the desired aquatic environment. i) Low water in ponds due to Identification of cultivable air-breathing species/hardy species (eg Notopterus, Clarius, Puntius etc.) suitable for the regional aquatic environment. ii) Influence of salt load built up in ponds / change in water quality.
Pearl spot, sea bass, rabbit fish, mullet, etc.) for culture that can tolerate a wide range of salinity.
Floods A. Capture
The awareness of people living in rural or urban areas according to the geography of their area, as they do not consider whether they are on a river flood plain, an unstable slope, a dry river bed in a flood zone, etc. , when they (the fishing community) build their houses. Greater emphasis should be placed on maintaining public infrastructure such as highways, side roads and bridges against floods, which will help in rescue operations.
Aquaculture
Cyclone / Tsunami A. Capture
Marine timely reporting of weather. amp; Indian Ocean warning system and evacuation strategy planning for cyclone/tsunami prone areas. Fishermen should be encouraged and financially encouraged to have safety devices on their fishing vessels. Educating the coastal population on disaster mitigation and ensuring good means of transport in coastal areas before a cyclone/tsunami event, which will help in rescue operations.
Adequate food should be provided to the affected population &. governmental and non-governmental organizations to restore their socio-economic status. National and international financial support for research on various aspects of cyclone/tsunami will be needed to plan future strategies. Strategies should be adopted to conserve mangroves and plantations in the estuary/coastal region to reduce future risk. i) Average compensation paid due to. fishermen to have safety devices on their fishing vessels. adequate food provided &. i) Overflowing/flooding of ponds Elevation of peripheral embankments of aquaculture ponds.
In the initial stage before the flood, you should harvest the stock as soon as possible to minimize economic losses. Drain excess water, disinfect and refill ponds with water and replenish following standard aquaculture protocols. ii) Changes in water quality (fresh water / brackish water ratio). Drain off excess water. After achieving desired water quality, replenish following standard aquaculture protocols. iii) Health and disease Adequate vaccination of stock prior to this is recommended to minimize risk.
Disinfection / quarantine of the cultivation pond before the next population. iv) Loss of supplies and inputs (feed, chemicals, etc.). Elevation of peripheral embankments of aquaculture ponds and good internal storage for inputs. Early harvesting of stocks and transportation of raw materials to safer places. v) Damage to infrastructure (pumps, aerators, shelters/huts, etc.).
Elevation of peripheral embankments of aquaculture ponds and initial provision of good internal storage for pumps and aerators.
