A group of enterprising farmers in Haveri district, Karnataka, who have adopted the unique method of cultivation called 'Guli Vidhana (pit system)', have succeeded in doubling the yield of finger millet or ragi crop from one acre of land to 18-20 quintals. Some farmers have been inspired by System of Rice Intensification to use Guli Vidhana, which is similar to SRI [though the technique predates SRI].
Principles of the System of Rice Intensification, when adapted for crops other than rice, are called the System of Crop Intensification (SCI).
