  1. Rajasthan National Conference on Agriculture Kharif Campaign 2013 6-7 March, 2013

  2. Main features • Rajasthan has : • 10.5 % total Geographical Area of Country • 5.5% population of Country • 573.50 mmAverage Rainfall per annum • 10% live stock population of Country • 77% area arid & semi arid • 342.69 lac hatotal ggeographical area of state • 227.71 lac ha. cultivable area, 36.73 lac under fallow land • Country's 1% surface water available in State • 10 lac ha. land affected by salinity & alkalinity • Low fertility and less water holding capacity of soils

  3. Growth Drivers Priority Sectors • Increase Water Use Efficiency • Increase Seed Replacement Rate • Soil Health Management & INM • IPM and IWM • Value Addition by Agro-Processing • Rain-Fed Farming and Fodder Production • Crop Diversification and Organic Farming • Efficient Technology Dissemination • PPP & Farm Mechanization

  4. Special Plan to achieve 19+ MT Pulses Production Focus Area • Utilization of new areas through intercropping in Kharif Pulses in selected 15 districts • Use of improved varieties seed • Use of Critical Inputs • Use of Sulphur • Use of Micronutrients • Plant Growth Regulators • Higher Water Use Efficiency through Sprinkler

  5. Districts Covered - 15

  6. Interventions A. Intercropping • Introduction of inter cropping of Pigeon Pea + Cotton/Maize/Pearlmillet • Intercropping of Moong with Maize/Sorghum/Pearlmillet • Intercropping of Urd with Maize/Sorghum/Pearlmillet • Intercropping of Moth with Pearlmillet B. Inclusive Water Management • Sprinklers are important for short duration pulses like Urdbean, Moongbean and Mothbean • 10% funds of Micro Irrigation Scheme is diverted to selected districts under Special Plan 19+ Million Tonnes of Pulses C. Critical Inputs • Efforts are made to increase pulse production and productivity by use of critical inputs / Catalyst which include use of sulphur, micronutrients and plant growth regulators

  7. Physical Achievement 2012-13 A. Intercropping B. Sprinkler installed in 966 ha C. Efforts were made for use of critical inputs but farmers showed less interest as the kharif pulses are mostly grown under rainfed conditions

  8. Progress 2012-13 Rs. in lacs

  9. Seed Distribution and SRR in 19+ MT Pulses Production Districts: Kharif Seed Distribution in Qtls. and SRR in % *Very meager area of cowpea in 15 districts of 19+ Pulse Production

  10. Area and Production in 19+ MT Pulses Production Districts: Kharif Area in ha and Production in Tonnes Area under kharif pulses reduced in 2012 due to less rainfall upto 31.7.2012

  11. Thanks
