  16. Initiatives to increase production & productivity

  17. Area expansionunderHYV Rice • Additional area of 0.21 lakh hectares covered during last 2 years. • Further expansion of 1.55 lakh hectares has been targeted during current year.

  18. Emphasis on Hybrid Rice cultivation

  19. Introduction of Submergence Tolerant Variety of Paddy

  20. Efforts for increasing the area under Double / Multiple cropping & Cropping Intensity • Area under double cropping increased due to - interventions through “Mission Double Cropping” from 2011-12. - area expansion under assured irrigation. - timely supply of quality seeds & other inputs.

  21. Gearing up Pathar Parichalana Samity (PPS) as instrument of change. • 24,400 PPSs formed (Target – 50,000 PPSs). Role envisaged Field based planning for increasing production & productivity. Encourage homogeneous cultivation at cluster approach. Motivating farmers for double / multiple cropping. To be provided with agriculture machineries. Facilitator for better implementation of departmental schemes.

  22. Initiative to compensate production loss of foodgrains due to natural calamities (2012-13) • Free distribution of foodgrain seeds : 28,396 quintals. • Distribution of fertilisers (DAP) at 50% subsidy : 48,395 quintals. • Free tractorization : 0.87 lakh hectare. • Total area covered : 2.36 lakh hectares. • Farmers benefited : 6.13 lakh. • Financial involvement : Rs. 3694.80 lakh under State Plan.

  23. Initiatives taken for imparting training to farmers • Organizing training at Block, District & State Level. • Organizing training especially for women farmers at District & State Level. • Imparting on-field training through Farmers Field Schools. • Organizing training before each crop season and demonstration. • Imparting training to members of Field Base Pathar Parichalana Samities (PPSs). Training has been arranged for 20,000 members during 2013-14. • Involvement of Resource Person from AAU & KVK for imparting training.

  24. New initiatives in Mechanization • New State Govt. guidelines for efficient, effective and transparent delivery mechanism - • - Involving Gaon Panchayats in selection of beneficiaries. • - Selected beneficiaries informed through SMS. • - Activitywise timelines set from receipt of application to delivery of tractors / tillers / machineries. • Establishment Agro Service Centre / Agril. Machinery repairing Centre in Rural areas - • - Door step servicing and repairing of machineries. • - Create Employment Avenue to rural youth. • Establishment of custom Hiring Centre in Rural areas - • - Facilitates poor farmers to procure / hire Agril. Machineries.

  25. New initiatives in Mechanization • Mechanization of Pathar Parichalana Samitties by providing machineries / improved implements - • - Increase cropping intensity, production and productivity. • - Increase efficiency of Agril. Operations. • Post harvest facility – • - Establishment of 250 nos. Mini Dal Mills. • - Establishment of 500 nos. Mini Oil Mills. • - Establishment of 34 nos. of Modern Mini Rice Mills. • - Construction of Cold Storage – 5 nos. (5000 MT) • - Construction of Rural Godown (200 MT capacity) – 15 nos. • - Construction of Grain Storage (1000 MT capacity) – 9 nos.

  26. Initiatives to enhance credit flow through KCC • Simplification of procedure for KCCs. • Hand holding of the farmers till KCC is disbursed. • Stamp duty on Agricultural Loans up to Rs. 50,000.00 have been waived. • KCC loan made interest free (GOI – 3% & State Govt. – 4%) • Regular State & District level monitoring.

  27. Initiatives for procurement of Paddy • Engaged a State Agency in procurement for the first time. • Concerned officials trained. • Awareness through print and electronic media. • No. of paddy procurement centres increased from 20 in 2011-2 to 34 in 2012-13. Further increased to 65 nos. in 2013-14. • 6.21 lakh quintals procured during last 2 years. Target for procurement set at 7.0 lakh quintals in 2013-14. • Collaboration with PRIs and cooperative fedaration.

  28. Expenditure under various schemes during 2012-13

  29. Collaborative efforts

  30. Collaborative efforts

  31. Collaborative efforts Department of Agriculture has also tied up with the following organizations for development of agriculture – • A. INTERNATIONAL RICE RESEARCH INSTITUTE (IRRI) : • Promotion & extension of Stress Tolerant Varieties of Rice. • MOU being signed. • B. NABARD : • Installation of 1.00 lakh Shallow Tube Wells. • Setting up of Cold Storages. • Financing of Terminal Market. • Preparation of DPR & monitoring.

  32. Collaborative efforts C. ASSAM AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY : • Our technology partner. • Special programme for sand silted area of Lakhimpur & Dhemaji districts. • D. ASSAM GRAMIN VIKASH BANK : • Providing loans to facilitate payment of farmers share for purchase of agricultural machineries. • MOU signed. E. APEDA : • Establishment of 2 nos. of Pack Houses with Cold Storage at Karimganj & Tinsukia under Common Infrastructure Scheme.

  33. Districtwise Status of data entry under NFSM (Rice & Pulse) (as on 12.12.2013)

  34. Districtwise Status of data entry under NFSM (Rice & Pulse) (as on 12.12.2013)

  35. Our Vision (To attain by the end of 12th FYP) • Increase Rice production to100.00 lakh MT – at present 52.33 lakh MT. • Self sufficiency in Pulses – at present 40% of requirement. • Self sufficiency in Oilseeds – at present 55% of requirement. • Increase area under Assured Irrigation – at present 33% of Net cropped area. • To increase Farm Power to attain national level – at present 1.02 HP per ha.

  36. Future prospects for Foodgrain Production (lakh MT)

  37. Future Strategies • Increasing productivity through technological interventions. • Emphasis on irrigation through Shallow Tube Wells will continue to bring more areas under assured irrigation. • Additional 1.37 lakh hectares will be brought under Hybrid Rice cultivation during 2013-14 to ensure food security. • Emphasis on mechanization to ensure farm power availability of 1.25 HP per hectare at the end of 2013-14. • Extension through training & demonstration will be strengthened further. • Bankers will be persuaded to extend credit to farmers in bigger way.

  38. Road Map • Tie-up with IRRI. • Self sufficiency in quality seed production. • Emphasis on Summer Rice through Mission Double Croping. • Emphasis on Hybrid Rice especially for Summer paddy. • Bringing more areas under Irrigation. • Emphasis on Mechanization to facilitate quick & smooth field preparation to push cropping intensity. • Capacity building of farmers & field officers for absorption of new technology in collaboration with IRRI & AAU. • Leveraging modern Post Harvest Technology.
