Yield and income of the rainfed chilli under mixed farming by Bavajependran

The mixed cropping system followed in Kannamangalam village, Ilayangudi Taluk, Sivagangai District, is a practical example of diversified rainfed agriculture. Chilli is maintained as the main crop, while vegetables, onion, coriander, groundnut, blackgram, bhendi and sweet potato are integrated into different parts of the field.

The system not only provides vegetables for household consumption but also creates additional income through the sale of surplus produce. The main chilli crop can produce more than 1.5 tonnes per acre, with dried chilli marketed through local traders. Since chilli prices fluctuate according to demand and supply, diversification helps reduce the economic risk faced by farmers.

Under favourable conditions, the farmer may obtain a gross income of around ₹2–3 lakh per acre and a net profit of more than ₹1 lakh after cultivation costs, within approximately 6–7 months. Therefore, this locally practiced mixed cropping system can be considered a productive, diversified and economically beneficial approach for rainfed farming in Sivagangai District.
