| Sumario: | <p id="p2">Enhancing the productivity of low-input farming needs managing nutrient availability through crop management and enhancing genetic potentiality of crops. Cereal-based mono-cropping systems need legume interventions to improve overall farm productivity. Developing climate-smart nutrient-responsive pulses for organic farming conditions for enhanced market linkage with value-added products enhances the sustainability of pulse addition. Breeding for intense root system, disease resistance, higher water and nutrient use efficiency, and quick growing habits with early flowering nature may produce a sustainable pulse under such slow nutrient-releasing soils. The addition of mungbean, lentil, chickpea, lathyrus, blackgram, and pigeonpea to the rice fallow coastal system may improve the total productivity and sustainability of the system. Pre-breeding with potential donors may generate a wide adaptable breeding population for easy selection of desirable recombinant using phenotyic, biochemical, and molecular marker. Wide genomic information and next-generation sequencing advancement for quick genetic gain is utmost required for low-input farming responsive variety.</p> |
