Administrative Development: A Journal of HIPA, ShimlaSummary: The present study attempts to assess the outcomes of a multi-layered convergence-based model and initiative for multi-cropping in three villages of the Sixth Schedule BTR of Assam. Typically, agriculturists of these regions follow a uni-crop model which limits their income potential and enhances disaster vulnerability beyond threshold limits. The findings indicate that convergences effected amongst the myriad stakeholders - farmer communities, concerned Depts. Agriculture, Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Agriculture Engineering and Irrigation, district administration helped achieve better resource utilization and could translate into tangibles. The findings reveal that during the intervention period, there has been a nearly 90% rise in farmers doing multi-cropping and increase in intra-departmental partnerships with micro level community engagement can help increase the success rate of targeted interventions especially for community oriented developmental measures as this BTR example clearly shows.- Reproduced
