Abstract
Integrated farming system is a holistic approach or integrated set or scientific combinations of many complementary and supplementary enterprises leading to maximize the crop productivity and enhance net farm income by optimal sustained use of natural resources and effective use of available by-products. The scientific combinations or integration is made in such a way that product of one enterprise should be the input of other enterprise with high degree of complimentary effects on each other. Adoption of integrated farming system leads to replacement of off farm inputs, sustainable production of high quality food and stability in farm income through multiple enterprises that aim at maximum utilization of available natural resources to meet the family needs and full fill nutrition requirement too. It aims at generating a threshold level of farm income required for the farm family to maintain sustained interest in farming.
