Benefits (Economical and Social) (not more than 150 words):
These practices resulted in a bumper crop of sugarcane with higher yield and income which multiplied Alok’s farm output considerably. He got a net profit of 9,79,500 lakhs from 7 acres of land by cultivating intercropping of sugarcane variety CoP 2061with potato in scientific mode. The demand of sugarcane is high due to sugarcane factories situated near to his farm at Riga. He also sold some of the sugarcane as seed because this variety CoP 2061 became the first choice by the farmers in the district. Early uprooting of potato and selling in the market also remunerated him additionally. After getting handsome income he built own house and admitted his son in convent school. Today he is known as sugarman of this district and many farmers follow the path of Sri Alok Kumar Singh.

| 2 | Production technologies through single bud seedling production and gap filling in the main field of sugarcane | 14 | 140 |
| 3 | Trench method of plantation | 21 | 210 |
| 4 | Protection technologies such as sugarcane set treatment method and mode of pesticide application with proper doze & time | 32 | 320 |
| 5 | Intercropping with potato | 16 | 160 |
B. Up Scaling of technology :
(i) Training of farmers, kishan gosthi, workshop, diagnostic visits were organized.
(ii) Availability of quality seed of sugarcane & potato to the farmers.
C. Future projection
1. Development of integrated seed supply system in combination of systems to popularize new varieties of sugarcane and potato through creation of linkages between research institution, Public sector, private sector and farmers needed for mitigating quality seed shortage.
2. Development of seed village concept as a tool to bridge the gap between the quality seed requirement & availability of quality seed involving the end users.
