Facing the climate crisis in Rajshahi's Kaidanga village, Alal Uddin achieved three harvests in a year: Aman rice, mustard (BARI-17), and maize. Utilizing BURO Bangladesh’s relay cropping method, he planted mustard just before his rice harvest. In 85 days, he yielded an impressive 204 kg of mustard. This cost-effective, water-saving approach eliminated tilling and leveraged residual nutrients, reducing expenses and generating significant income from previously fallow land.

With Rajshahi's drought conditions hindering water-intensive crops like Boro rice, BURO promotes maize and mustard as sustainable alternatives. Alal’s success has inspired other farmers to adopt this method, paving the way for sustainable agriculture and increased earnings in the region.
