  1. Convergence in Agriculture Development 6th December, 2008

  2. Structure • Convergence • Opportunities for convergence • A roadmap 6th December, 2008

  3. Why Convergence? • Increased outlays in agriculture, water resources and rural development sectors in 11th Plan : How do we get optimal results? • New initiatives such as RKVY, NFSM, NHM, NREGA and intensification of efforts through Watershed Programmes, Bharat Nirman and BRGF in the rural sector present new opportunities for leveraging (agricultural )growth 6th December, 2008

  4. Mechanism for Convergence • The State Level Sanctioning Committee (SLSC) should be a platform to forge CONVERGENCE • The District Agricultural Plans (DAPs) and State Agriculture Plans (SAPs) under Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY) provides the required flexibility 6th December, 2008

  5. Simple to read & easy to explain Ensuring convergence with all ongoing schemes/ programmes C-DAP should be…… Logical Accounting socio- economic aspects & local felt needs 6th December, 2008

  6. Status of Convergence • The DAPs/SAPs have identified strategies for agricultural growth, but they have not factored in other interventions in the rural sector • Therefore, convergence remains inadequate /unexplored in these Plans. • Consequently, convergence happens more by accident than by design 6th December, 2008

  7. Surveying opportunities for convergence in agriculture & allied sectors 6th December, 2008

  8. Intervention Constn./improvement of rural roads Repair of tanks, irrigation canals, water bodies, water conservation/harvesting structures; irrigation facilities on SC/ST land Land development Opportunity Agri. marketing (incl. dairying) Higher productivity, horticulture, fisheries Demand for inputs, services Crop development NREGS 6th December, 2008

  9. Intervention Irrigation: Creation of 100 lakh ha potential in 4 years (2005-06/2008-09) Roads: Habitations to have all weather roads Telephones in 66,822 unconnected villages Grid based electrfn. of 1,25,000 villages Opportunity Higher productivity crop/fisheries/fodder development Agri. marketing (incl. dairying) Strengthen extension, pest surveillance, marketing Selective ground water based irrigation Bharat Nirman 6th December, 2008

  10. Intervention Filling of critical gaps in infrastructure Capacity building Agri. extension worker Barefoot technician Opportunity Supply of appropriate input or service Strengthen Extension services Repair of pump-sets, agri. machinery BRGF (250 Districts) 6th December, 2008

  11. Intervention Bringing BPL families above poverty line through SHG activities in clusters Opportunity Training SHGs for providing extension/ credit/marketing services to farmers SGSY 6th December, 2008

  13. In Planning • Reviewing DAPs/SAP to make them more comprehensive by including all significant interventions in rural sector: AERCs, TSIs etc. to be involved • SAPs to clearly reflect priorities identified in DAPs • Linking investments under RKVY and other programmes in agri. & allied sectors to potential/opportunities emerging from rural sector interventions 6th December, 2008

  14. In Technology • Tapping expertise in SAUs, ATMA, DRDAs and KVKs in planning and new initiatives • Networking with ICAR institutions for specific problems/initiatives 6th December, 2008

  15. Credit (NABARD, RRBs) Marketing (Storage, Tpt., Prices etc.) DDP Rural Infra. (BRGF, Bharat Nirman, NREGS etc.) Schemes (RKVY, NFSM, NHM, ISOPOM etc.) DAP Inputs; seeds , Fert Water Resources (AIBP, watershed, micro-irrigation) Technology & Extn. (ICAR, SAU, KVK, ATMA) 6th December, 2008

  16. In Structures • Utilizing State Level Sanctioning Committee (SLSC) for converging the different components • Cutting across silos: • monthly meetings of Agri. & allied/RD/PR Departments under APC/Dev.
