Increase in yieldsfrom baseline, (kilograms per uni<strong>to</strong>f ET; kg/m3) : wheat—82%,corn—183%, rice—70%.Groundwater overdraft wasreduced by about 30%.Income rise relative <strong>to</strong> controlgroup of +54% in Phase I and+53% in Phase II (ICR), or+20.4% in Phase I and +24.4% inPhase II according <strong>to</strong> ISRO 50 .Yield: increase averaged acrosscrops and relative <strong>to</strong> controlgroups of 24% for Phase I, and26% for Phase II. Increase inground water level by 50 ft, 61 ftand 90 ft is observed in <strong>the</strong> 3 agroecologicalzones (no controlgroup). Groundwater dischargerises from 250 <strong>to</strong> 325 gallons/hour(no control group). According <strong>to</strong>ISRO, increase of water yield by 1<strong>to</strong> 2.5 inches across treated areasis recorded.No targets set for income andbiophysical changes. Yield: Thequantities and shares of marketedcrop output per HH amongbeneficiary farmers are at least50% higher than <strong>the</strong> baseline(includes banana, maize, beans,cassava).Average yields increased by 50 %for cot<strong>to</strong>n, 49 % for grainsorghum, 53 % for sesame, 62 %for <strong>to</strong>ma<strong>to</strong>es and 73 % for onion.Typical small and medium sizefarms have increased <strong>the</strong>ir incomein about 45 <strong>to</strong> 89%.
