Farmers around the world are challenged to produce more food per hectare with less water and agrochemical inputs due to the world's rising population, climate change and constraints on soil and water availability and quality. The ideas and methods of the system of crop intensification are improving overall agricultural production and are now being extended/adapted to many other
crops: cotton, soybean, rice, wheat, maize, finger millet, sugarcane, mustard, legumes, vegetables and even spices. Various farmer centred sequential/double cropping systems in rainfed regions of country can contribute to agricultural sustainability with higher productivity. The All India Coordinated Research Project for Dryland Agriculture is having research centres across the country,
which have made an extensive research on sequential/double cropping systems with an aim for better utilization of land, water and higher incomes to the farm families over the year through promotion and implementation of these systems in different states across the rainfed regions of the country.
